About VLC?
VLC media player, also known as VLC, is a versatile and freely available open-source media player and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. With support for numerous audio and video compression methods and file formats, including DVD-video, video CD, and streaming protocols, VLC is capable of streaming over computer networks and transcoding multimedia files. The software comes equipped with a wide range of free decoding and encoding libraries, eliminating the need to search for or configure proprietary plugins. While VLC utilizes codecs from the libavcodec library of the FFmpeg project, it primarily relies on its own muxer and demuxers, as well as its own protocols.
