In order to be able to fully enjoy a movie or song, appropriate applications need to be used. Media files are found under a large variety of formats, not supported by all available players. Amongst the existing industry giants which have built a name and reputation over the years, there is VLC media player, a simple looking tool with a lot of power under the hood.
Cleverly organize your media files
On the visual side, the application stays clean, with no shiny buttons or elements to enhance the interface. However, accessing the 'Options' menu gives you the possibility to customize the layout or even completely change the skin with the help of downloadable content.
Regardless of your style choice, it is capable of playing both video and audio files. You can bring up the playlist editor, which can either be docked or left floating around the desktop. Files can be managed from here, with the possibility to simply have desired items dragged over an indicated area.
You can save configurations to play later on, having them combined, music and movies. Additionally, you are able to select one of the available radio stations provided, and it is most likely to even stumble across the one you have your frequency tuned to.

Enhance your video and audio experience
Giving VLC media player a try takes some of your time, having you snoop through every corner for hidden treasures. Each button you press brings up new possibilities.
