Acknowledgement

1. The package building method used in this project is pkg2appimage.

2. Solve the problem that netease cloud music for Linux can not play lossless audio format (FLAC) music. thanks to EHfive's ncm.patch and his blog article.

   Patch VLC to make the Content-Type of flac network files/streams always be "audio/flac" to "fix" the problem that VLC fails to recognize the flac network files correctly due to the Content-Type of "audio/mpeg" obtained by NetEase Cloud Music for Linux.
