VLC Media Player enjoys many hardware acceleration options, including via the graphics card as well as optimization for multi-core systems (for decoding codecs such as H.264, WebM or Xvid) .

On the same principle as Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, VLC handles extensions and skins . There are two types of extensions , the first objective will be to retrieve video content , audio and subtitles on the Internet , the latter offer the possibility to access additional contextual information.

VLC gets also to BluRay, which is, for the moment only partially managed (no support for menus).
