Simple, fast and powerful media player. Plays everything: Files, Discs, Webcams, Devices and Streams.Simple, fast and powerful media player. Plays everything: Files, Discs, Webcams, Devices and Streams.Free, open source, and cross-platform: VLC is licensed under the CC-SA v3.0+ and available on Windows, OSX, and Linux with source code available here. | Simple to setup and use: VLC is an incredibly robust application but very simple on the surface. It makes playing music simple, yet still manages to give the user all the tools he/she wants in a music player. | Not really meant to be a music player: VLC is made to be a video player. Therefore, it won't carry out actions such as managing your music library. | Very versatile and easy to use | Lacks libraries and advanced music player features: VLC is a media player first and foremost. There is no library management (aside from playlists), limited usage of tags, and no rating system. VLC is best at playing a file directly from a folder, but falls behind when it comes to helping you manage or find good songs in your music library. | Doesn't require additional codecs: Everything VLC needs to play media files is contained within which means no outside codecs are needed. This makes it one of the most hassle-free music players as it can play virtually anything as soon as it's installed. | Tons of advanced settings: Besides basic configurations, video player has an extensive amount of adjustable settings. | Absence of personalization: VLC Player has only one basic interface in white or black, and overall personalization opportunities are quite narrow. Unfortunately, you're pretty much stuck to the default look. | Doesn't manage your music library for you: *You* organize your music into folders any way you want. Want to play an album? Drag and drop. No tags, no confusion, no fluff. Easy. | Can be almost completely keyboard-driven: VLC includes keyboard shortcuts for most actions. The video player can be controlled with simple and customizable keyboard commands. | Contains some insignificant but irritating flaws: Despite all keyboard shortcuts, the width of the picture can't be controlled by trackpad. Besides that, the VLC start-up window doesn’t open at the same place or the same width at which it was previously closed. | Surprisingly Lightest on Resources: Yes. Lightest. Even better than the ones known to be light. Both when playing music, only a single song or when playing a video. Either in terms of Ram and Cpu. Compared with almost all, including the ones from Windows like mpc-hc .. or light ones from Linux like Alsa Player, Audacious, SmPlayer . | Can play every format video available (as of 2017) | Includes Blu-Ray playback support: Blu-Ray playback support was added on July 13th, 2014. It allows playing back DRM-free Blu-Rays with the help of libbluray, libaacs and libbdplus. | Supports a GUI interface and an ncurses terminal interface | Can easily stream music across your home network from any device on the network: Using sftp/ssh music (and videos) can be streamed from any server on the network to any device running VLC. VLC can also be used as a webcam for streaming and snapshots. Amazing all in one package | Large amount of extensions: VLC has a large amount of extensions.
