Wassim Lalaoui

Worked on the videolan/vlc repository to enhance compatibility and privacy features during a focused development period. Upgraded the mpg123 library to support GCC 15, addressing both build system management and runtime performance using C and C++. This update streamlined integration with modern toolchains and reduced potential build issues. Additionally, fixed a bug in the Qt interface to ensure the --no-qt-privacy-ask option was properly respected, improving user privacy controls. The work demonstrated proficiency in C++ programming and Qt development, resulting in a more stable and privacy-conscious VLC experience while laying groundwork for future toolchain and dependency updates.
