New Features & Improvements in VLC 2.0 19

VLC Player 2.0 “TwoFlower”  is the latest version released by VideoLAN Organization. This video player is the best in handling most of the media formats and is an open source project 🙂 VLC is known to play anything that you throw at it, kitchen sink included. VLC 2.0 is the first landmark update since its first official release in June 2009. There are lots and lots of changes in the VLC 2.0 version.

The look and feel has become more impressive. It can now support the Blu-ray playback . You can observe a lot of other additional features in the Mac version of VLC 2.0.

1) Simple, Fast and Powerful.
2) Plays almost all everything (Files, Discs, Webcams, Streams)
3) Supports all types of codecs like MPEG-2, H.264, DivX, MPEG-4, WMV and etc. without any packs needed.
4) Completely free from spyware, ads or user tracking.
5) Works on most platforms like Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Unix and Other.
6) Media Converter and Streamer.

The new VLC 2.0 now supports a lot of Audio and Video formats

VLC 2.0 : Audio Formats

MPEG Layer 1/2, MP3 – MPEG Layer 3, AAC – MPEG-4 part3, Vorbis, AC3 – A/52 (Dolby Digital), E-AC-3 (Dolby Digital Plus), MLP / TrueHD, DTS, WMA 1/2, WMA 3 1, FLAC, ALAC, Speex, Musepack / MPC, ATRAC 3, Wavpack, Mod (.s3m, .it, .mod), TrueAudio (TTA), APE (Monkey Audio), Real Audio 2, Alaw/µlaw, AMR (3GPP), MIDI 3, LPCM, ADPCM, QCELP, DV Audio, QDM2/QDMC (QuickTime), MACE

VLC 2.0 : Video Formats

MPEG-1/2, DIVX (1/2/3) , MPEG-4 ASP, DivX 4/5/6, XviD, 3ivX D4, H.261, H.263 / H.263i, H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC, Cinepak, Theora, Dirac / VC-2, MJPEG (A/B), WMV 1/2, WMV 3 / WMV-9 / VC-1 1, Sorenson 1/3,(Quicktime), DV (Digital Video), On2 VP3/VP5/VP6, Indeo Video v3 (IV32), Indeo Video 4/5 (IV41, IV51), Real Video 1/2, Real Video 3/4


Apart from these above formats, VLC 2.0 can support a lot of additional Input features, Subtitle/Tag formats, A/V outputs, A/V filters, Interfaces and other additional formats. It’s a huge step in the right direction though, and the main reason that it’s not fully supported just yet is because of the amount of work that has gone into the core rendering engines. Video outputs have been added, and older ones rewritten, now supporting better GPU optimisation and multi-threaded decoding for HD content.

In one simple world, VLC 2.0 is a universal player which can play anything. VLC 2.0 is more stable and will crash very less if you compare it with the previous versions.

    Thumbs up for VLC. I just wish I could use it on my TV. While the build in media player (panasonic) is already quit good and plays most stuff out of the box, there’s still the occasional file that won’t play (also the file format is supported). Back to desktop, fire up VLC é voilá…it’s playing. Always has and always will be… 😉
