VLC media player (also known as VLC) is a highly portable free and open-source cross-platform media player and streaming media server written by the VideoLAN project.VLC media player supports many audio and video compression methods and file formats, including DVD-video, video CD and streaming protocols. It is able to stream over computer network and to transcode multimedia files.
The default distribution of VLC includes a large number of free
decoding and encoding libraries, avoiding the need for
finding/calibrating proprietary plugins. Many of VLC's codecs are
provided by the libavcodec library from the FFmpeg project, but it uses mainly its own muxer
and demuxers and its own protocols. It also gained distinction as the
first player to support playback of encrypted DVDs on Linux and OS X by using the libdvdcss DVD decryption library.
2.0.4 is a major update that fixes a lot of regressions of the 2.0.x branch of VLC.
2.0.4 introduces an important number of fixes and improvements for all playback, notably
for Blu-Ray, DVD, HLS, Ogg and MKV files; but also for Youtube, Vimeo, Koreus and Soundcloud.
2.0.4 adds Opus codec support, including multichannel ones and streams, and MSS playback through DMO libraries.
2.0.4 fixes numerous issues, including audio device selection, Qt and Mac OS interface, security issues and Windows wallpaper mode...
With faster decoding on multi-core, GPU, and mobile hardware and the ability to open more
formats, notably professional, HD and 10bits codecs, 2.0 was a major upgrade for VLC.
2.0.4 fixes around a hundreds of bugs, and adds more than 300 commits on top of 2.0.3.
