VLC boasts of several unique features that would make other proprietary media players, such as WMP, bow down and run for their money. The following are some of the key features of VLC Media Player:
- Operating System Compatibility. VLC is compatible with OSs such as Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris and BeOS.
- Play whatever. Be it any format or any codec, they got to play in VLC.
- Simplicity. If you know how to use your DVD player at home, this would be a breeze.
- Network Streaming. It can stream internet video over HTTP, UTP protocol more over it support IPv6.
- Streaming Server. You can broadcast video using unicast or multicast in high bandwidth network.
- Filters. Have some fun on your video. Use the filter options to change color, add waves, etc.
- Highly Portable. VLC is also available as a portable application for Windows. In that way, you can take your audio/video files and VLC with you (saved on your USB drive) and play them on a computer without installation and without leaving any personal information behind.
- Volume Control. I am not sure if anyone has noticed this, but an amazing feature of VLC is it exceed its own volume limit. On its interface, the maximum volume is only 200, but when you use your mouse control to adjust the volume, it doubles the number to 400! I compared the volume of VLC and WMP and there is a big difference between the two. Very useful for those users who's using a poor set of speakers.
- Customizable Controls. VLC has the option for you to customize the interface controls and buttons as you wish.
