VLC media player is one of the most popular video players. We were used to habituated with Windows Media player for some years. Then, we used real player, then we have got this VLC player. Arguably, a far better option rather than all other players in terms of features and functionality.
VLC media player is free to download from official website as well as from popular portals like download.com, cnet.com. It can be installed on both windows OS and Mac OS. We can term it as a platform independent media player.
The installation of VLC media player is quite easy and takes few minutes only to complete the installation.You can make this VLC media player as a default media player for your system. All the video files will be automatically opened in VLC media player up on double clicking on the files.
VLC media player supports all types of video files like .VOB, .wma, .flv, etc. I have never come across a file that is not supported by VLC media player. It can even play corrupted files or incomplete files. In fact, it has an inbuilt facility to repair the corrupted files and play them automatically.
If your computer is having internet connectivity, VLC player will ask for updates when ever you are going to start it. So, you are always getting an updated version of VLC player automatically.
Personally, I do like the features of this one, but look wise it is a bit back dated. I wish it would look more sophisticated and trendy!
I am fond of this player and always watch movie on my laptop using VLC media player. I have been using it since last 5 years and am in no plan to quit this one so soon.
I have already recommended about this software to my friends and co-workers. Once my system got formatted, I make sure to install VLC players again after formatting, like all other utility software on my system.
I sincerely recommend this one.
