VideoLAN.org - ( Open Source)

VLC Media Player is one of the most used media player that supports most o the video and audio formats that deserves to be chisen when it comes to play a movie.

VLC Media Player is a famous open source media player. It can play almost all formats of video and audio including HD: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, AAC, MP3, OGG, AVI, WMV , MOV, VCD, SVCD, DVD, etc and network streams proposed for WebTV, all without having to download anything else. It comes with all the necessary codecs: Flash, Dirac, Atrac3, H.264 PAFF, APE audio, RealVideo, VC-3, Fraps and more.

The application also supports the configuration server as a unicast or multicast on IPv4 or IPv6 networks.

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).

Function post-processing optimizes file playback for an optimal picture and sound. In addition, it includes a video converter or audio file, audio and video in real time filters, video streaming function, a wide range of settings that improves the rendering of the image and sound.
