Current vlc in arch is version vlc 2.2.4-5, and I have just double checked
that it works for UPnP - loading vlc in my desktop, and on the LAN, I can
immediately connect to my minidlna server running on a little odroid-c2
machine on the same network and can play video and see the other media
files on UPnP. So if there was any issue on an earlier version of 2.x it
doesn't seem to be an issue currently.
