Are you using VLC for watching your video media yet ?
Well, you definitely have to try it!
Here’s my reasonsfor you to try it once at least once, I’ll bet you’ll get hooked almost immediately:
- VLC can almost hanlde anything you throw at it, out of the box! No codecs to install or breaking half your operating system to get some strange codec working.
- Cross platform, Window,Mac,Linux and BeOS – (-> VLC features)
- Open Source – get the source and incorporate it into your own application.
- Very light on resources – not chunking away half your memory for showing your favorite movie.
- Large community behind it, so alot of skins and extensibility behind it .
VLC v.0.9.9 has been released and already to date(of this post) there has already been 696 900 downloads !
So one more version and theyre Versions 1 !
