VLC Media Player

This advice is coming from a strong proponent of Windows Media Player - Ditch it! (For Video Playback at least)

I started using VLC Media Player a few months ago (thanks to Sarthak). For those who don’t know, my computer is slow with low RAM and almost all media players have difficulty playing even low-resolution videos on my computer.

VLC stands out of the crowd by allowing me and my crappy computer to enjoy full screen HD quality videos! I don’t know how VLC does it and I don’t care to find out. It is an amazing feeling to use a media player with such a light footprint and such a strong feature-set.

VLC also does an excellent job of managing codecs - I have not found the need to download a single codec ever since I installed VLC.

Check out VLC here.

    How about giving Credit where it’s due. ….Eh ?

    Anyhow, If we install the AC3 Filter Media Codecs and K-Lite Codecs. Then one can play any media(Audio-video) file in the world. I mean literally any. -:). May be you want to add that after verifications in due time.
