VideoLan VLC For Your Multimedia Needs

Are you the type of person that likes to play CD’s and DVD’s on your computer? You came home with a new DVD you just bought but when you inserted the DVD on your computer a error message saying “multimedia can’t be played” or “missing codec” or something alike. Your trusty Windows Media Player doesn’t work on the new DVD. Really frustrating isn’t it. Maybe it’s time to switch to another multimedia player like VideoLan VLC Media Player.

VLC Media Player is a multimedia player that supports a wide variety of audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, etc.) without the need for additional codecs, as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It also comes with a streaming server that enables you to stream media in unicast or multicast from your network. VLC Media Player provides a simple, straightforward interface with standard playback controls and makes most of its advanced features available from the right-click menu and toolbar. The long list of features include A/V filters and effects, media library, playlist, visualizations, video snapshots, customizable interface, album cover downloads, subtitles and much more.

VLC Media Player is very simple and easy to understand but I have prepared a “HOW TO” to make life simpler.
