Geek Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/vlc-2.jpg" alt="VLC 2.0" title="vlc-2" width="620" height="392" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-27532" /></p> <p>VLC 2.0 has been released, the powerful video playing apps new version supports even more video and audio formats and includes limited Blu-Ray playback, in addition to providing under-the-hood improvements for faster decoding with multi-core CPU’s and GPU’s. </p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/">Download VLC 2.0 from VideoLan.org</a></li> </ul> <p>If you’re unfamiliar with VLC or you don’t have it yet, you should add it to your app repertoire. VLC can open and play just about every conceivable video and audio file format thrown at it, making the days of hunting for appropriate codecs long gone. Furthermore, if the media in question is an obscure format, you can use VLC to transcode it to a more widely compatible format, from MPEG, DIVX, H.264, WMV, and more. It’ll often even open corrupted or partially downloaded movie files when many other apps fail to do so. The other benefit is that VLC is cross platform compatible, allowing you to use the same app on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux, all available as free downloads.</p> <p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/vlc.jpg" alt="VLC" title="vlc" width="620" height="377" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-27533" /></p> <p>VLC 2 also brings an all new interface to the app, which looks like a combination of iTunes and Windows Explorer and winds up making it more of a media manager app than just a simple movie player. If you don’t want to use it for managing any files though you can still drag and drop media onto the app to play it as usual.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/ZfRv450Z-shuewXigHFS0aEUiKY/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/ZfRv450Z-shuewXigHFS0aEUiKY/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/ZfRv450Z-shuewXigHFS0aEUiKY/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/ZfRv450Z-shuewXigHFS0aEUiKY/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=4ASE3zTW3u0:jnSnWDVpgXM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/4ASE3zTW3u0" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
