Default About to install YDL - few questions

Hi guys

i'm going to install YDL just a few questions.

I've download YDL v5.0.2 - is this ok?

Does VLC work ok on it?

Main reason i am installing YDL is because of the DivX playback functionality. Am i right in thinking i can burn a DVD RW with avi files and play them off it in my PS3 via YDL and VLC ?

many thanks

It's likely you know now, but just for other users' info, you will need a convential (wired) keyboard and mouse to install YDL.
Then, after everything works, you'll tweak your system to install wireless input devices.
