Maximum tested vlc version for Rpisurv is (VLC media player 3.0.17.4 Vetinari (3.0.13-8-g41878ff4f2)
Aborting installation, upgrade to latest vlc player with mmal support

@wifispray I am having the same VLC issue here. Seems VLC "mmal" and bookworm are not liking each-other. I tried both 32Bit and 64Bit bookworm on a Pi5 with same effect.
