All the issues surrounding the different versions of the VLC bindings has been cleared up with the latest version of SopCast Player. I have implemented an automatic fall-back mechanism that will find the most appropriate version of the bindings to use, no user-intervention required. If you would like to give it a try please goto http://sopcast-player.googlecode.com for detailed instructions.

Warm Regards,
Jason

Do you have VLC 1.1.0 rc The Luggage installed in your machine?Sopcast sounds like have something problem with the latest VLC. You can try this to fix the problem:

disable the 3rd party ppa for vlc reinstalled the 1.0.6 version reinstalled sopcast

If you are unwilling to un-install the latest VLC,you can try gsopcast or qsopcast instead: http://code.google.com/p/gsopcast/ GTK version of sopcast, has no problem with VLC http://code.google.com/p/qsopcast/ QT version of sopcast, has no problem with VLC Both have difficulty with downloading the menu, but you can manually choose. http://www.sopcast.com/gchlxml http://www.sopcast.cn/gchlxml http://channel.sopcast.com/gchlxml

Here you can find sopcast-player for ubuntu karmic Koala 9.10: http://www.sourceslist.eu/installare-software-tramite-repository/installare-sopcast-player-0-3-0-su-ubuntu-karmic-koala-9-10-in-pochi-click/

Because the original version that you can find on googlecode don’t work with Ubuntu 9.10.
