VLC for the new Windows 8

As many of you know, the road to come to this point has been long... Very long...

I've been driving or helping some ports of VLC on mobile, but this port has been the hardest, by an order of magnitude.

I'll speak a bit more about the lateness of this port, another time. Today, I'll introduce a bit to this application.

Features
The application version 0.2.0:

    work on Windows 8.0 and 8.1: too many people are still on 8.0, so we had to use that. This decreases the stability of the application though.
    is compiled for Intel x86 CPUs: Windows RT version will follow as soon as we are able to compile it. ARM version will also apply to Windows Phone.
    plays all video and audio formats of VLC, including MKV, Ogg and Mov files or FLAC and MPC;
    supports the same codecs as the VLC application for desktop, from MPEG-1 to H.265, through WMV3 and VC-1;
    supports multiple-audio tracks selection;
    supports embedded subtitles;
    supports Background Audio playback;
    features a easy-to-navigate but complete UI, notably for audio browsing;
    supports Live Tiles!
    supports removable storage and
 DLNA servers.

Still, there are certain limitations that have been reported, such as

    This app is currently slow, and is slower than VLC for desktop for video decoding and has no hardware acceleration;
    Subtitles support is not very good yet, and notably it only supports embedded subtitles; this is our major point of focus for now.
    Audio does not seem to work in all configurations;
    Playlists and streams are not supported in the UI (they are present in the core)
    It's clearly not as stable as it should be.
