			==Special Note==

			As of VLC (0.8.6d) <01/01/2008>, the VLC client cannot transcode correctly to WMV3, the video codec that the Zune player natively requires. This is due to the fact that the new WMV3 codec does not open have an open source counterpart like WMV1/WMV2 does. VLC instead uses the Windows API to transcode and play WMV3 encoded videos. Transcoded videos to WMV3 will be lacking in quality and although sync flawlessly via the Zune software, they will restart the zune device after a few seconds of playback.

			Therefore it is recommended/required to transcode into the WMV2 codec, and let the Zune software convert the video(s) into the required WMV3 codec for the Zune device.
