VLC Media Player
Players
Small player with great features.
Requirements:
- Operating System: Windows NT, 95, 98, 2000, XP, Vista
- DirectX 3.0 or later.
The first thing to mention on this player is that, unlike most current players, it includes its own codecs pack, so, if we download VLC we do not need to download any additional codecs package. Indeed, the package included works much better than other developers' packs. A film that is not played by any other software, will be played perfectly by VLC Media Player more than likely.
Another advantage is that this is a completely free software and it has been developed with open source and the author's website we have available all source codes, so if we have any programming knowledge we can make adjustments we deem necessary for our personal use.
The list of formats supported by this player is incredibly extensive, but on top of that, it also allows us to use it as a streaming server with which we can create and distribute our own content live over the Internet.
Chosen by more than 30 million users around the world, seems to be the most complete program as far as audio and video is concerned.
