Before VLC in Windows you used to have to download each codec separately, with VLC they all came included. That's one of the reasons I started using it. Other advantages was being able to set personalized rewind and fast forward intervals in seconds, and synchronize subtitles. Never had issues with it hanging or performance issues.

No you didn't. There have been great players on Windows like mpc, km player, now called DAUM player. VLC may have been one of the early Superstars but there are better media players out there for those who know. A lot of the more advanced streaming features of VLC are cool if you have a use for them but most people don't so it's unnecessary. Also it doesn't do playback as well as better players like DAUM do. VLC doesn't offer nearly as many detailed settings for playback and correcting playback issues than more advanced players do.

to be completely honest with you , i’ve seen the thumbnail and video float around my recommended for a few weeks now, and i don’t mean to bring up a dead thread, but i was genuinely expecting some real solid reasons coming from the kind of youtuber you are. Hell, i thought you were about to expose VLC for logging data and whatnot, but it turns out it’s just because it doesn’t work on your linux box? not only does it sound like a hardware issue, or a version issue that is distributed on your debian distros repositories, which is definitely fixed BY NOW, but quite literally was annoyed i sat here for 14 minutes waiting for a solid answer. I’ll give you a piece of advice i’ve learned over the years from being more advanced in technology than others: if it’s a matter of opinion, you have no right to tell someone that another program is better. because it just works. why do you or me care if they use the advanced toolset? it plays your content, and it. just. works. if it works. nothing is broken. what a waste of time of a video, of replying to comments, and overall just left me in a bad mood smh, if it was broken for you, then SOL. but no use in ranting and keeping this video up.

VLC supports almost any music and video formats, and it packs a lot of features, which are just there and can be used when you most need it. I use VLC on both Windows and Linux (specifically in Ubuntu) and had never ran into a problem or issues, over the years I used it. It just works, and fast. Old video file types, just plays. Heck it can even read old Handy Cam CDs and even display the menus from it, which I can't do on modern OS these days (unless I install another software, which is bothersome to do). Unheard of media formats, just open, including newer ones (after updates of course). To me, VLC is an all in one solution for my needs, because it just works, and the only time it just doesn't, is because the file I opened was corrupted, or because it was misconfigured, which is not VLC's fault.
@LandonJobe Жыл бұрын
FFMPEG supports almost any media format. VLC implements it, and a few other libraries. Most modern players will hook into ffmpeg if it's installed on the path. You can even use it raw, from a terminal prompt. e.g.: "ffplay -i concat:VTS_01_0.VOB\|VTS_01_1.VOB\|VTS_01_2.VOB" (where .VOB files are on a DVD) _or_ "ffplay /path/to/file" _or_ "cat [file(s)] | ffplay -i -"

My guess based on the state of the current VLC 4 beta is that the release should only be a few weeks/months away. I'm still hoping to see a release before the end of the year. Why I think they should rather release it sooner rather than later, is that HiDPI displays have become mainstream. And that is a problem with media players with an old GUI like VLC and MPC-HC (the GUI does not scale well with high resolutions). The lack of HiDPI support was for example one of the main reasons why VLC got replaced as default media player in a popular Linux distro.

In addition to different hardware configs, lots of Linux users seem unaware of how hardware video decoding is almost always disabled by default. In Linux, frame drops, stuttering, artifacts, tearing, loud CPU fans, etc are obvious at 4k60, though this is solved with the right drivers and enabling decoding in options or config files. In Windows, this isn't the case and video is almost always buttery smooth ootb. I'm hoping this gets easier for Linux users to troubleshoot, because I find the ootb experience for high quality video on Linux subpar. Moving away from H264 isn't making this any easier either.

The problem you are experiencing on Linux with VLC has to do with the Hardware Acceleration with AMD cards (Atleast I didn't notice it with the Nvidia card).

This problem has been a major pain for several years now. It would be nice if someone would light a fire under the VLC people to get it fixed.

So I've noticed that you tend to overgeneralize whether something *works* or *doesn't work* in Linux, based on your experiences. I don't think that your comparisons are fair in that on Windows you will be using the latest version of a software, but in your distribution of Linux, you're not. I've found that programs having to do with media are often best when you use the latest versions from the developers, however you won't get this on an Ubuntu-based distro. And I've found distros like Ubuntu-based ones to sometimes have very buggy versions of software. I'm not saying that I disagree with your analysis of the VLC, but I think that you should at least be saying "It crashes for me on " instead of "It crashes for me on Linux". Or be saying, "I couldn't get it to work for me in my distribution" or "...on my system". Just my two cents.

I use PotPlayer. Both VLC and MPC seemed like ancient Video Players to me. This is why I like PotPlayer: 1. PotPlayer shows previews when you seek videos (like KZbin). 2. Custom subtitle font, positioning, etc. It just has a huge array customization in Preferences. Also has a subtitle browser, where you can search words and dialogues and double click dialogues to start playing from where the dialogue is being spoken. 3. Brightness, Contrast, Saturation control (to match my likings when a video seems too washed out, too dark or less vibrant). 4. Playback speed control. 5. Audio Equalizer 6. Lots of shortcuts. Some Example: W/E - Brightness Up/Down, R/T - Contrast Up/Down, Y/U - Saturation Up/Down, I/O - Hue Up/Down, Q - Cycle Color Changes to Default/Custom, X - Slow speed, C - Fast Speed, Z - Cycle speed to Default/Custom, M - Mute, D - Previous Frame, F - Next Frame, A - Cycle Audio (For Multi Audio Files), L - Change/Load Subtitles... and many more. Bonus, less used features 7. Stream videos from network (direct download link). 8. Plays 360degree videos. 9. Plays 3D Videos 10. Have many post processing effects (maybe for improving low quality videos) I don't feel much freedom in any other video players. I jumped to using PotPlayer from KMPlayer back in 2015.

Thank you for the new video Chris. You are correct. And that's one of the reasons why Linux Mint removed VLC from its distribution. As I said before, I have Celluloid, Smplayer and VLC installed. However, I usually only use Celluloid. The hardware acceleration in Celluloid reduces cpu usage, heat and fan noise. For audio I use Audacity or Celluloid. Another problem with VLC is the music quality is not good. If I put on my Sony MDR headphones on the Fiio 5, there is so many harmonics on VLC, it makes me not want to listen to music. Celluloid is King in the audio playback, which makes me wonder why people would use VLC to watch movies. But if you need a specific feature in VLC and don't really care about quality, then it's there.

In my case VLC has proven to work well for Rendering rtsp -streams (IP-Cam) by an Android TV and Linux Mint 18.3 on a Lenovo M58 and watching mp4's on this Lenovo using VLC. In Windows 7 I used MPC ,because it was providing a better support for digital soundcards, where VLC only had a distorted sound. MPC seemed to by more integrated in Windows, than VLC. For a rtsp resolution of VGA(640*352) there's a CPU Load of 3 to 5 % , for a resolution of HD(1920*1080) here's a CPU Load of 10 to 13 % (no moving objects).

Instead of a hot key, create a bash file that kills VLC service after exit and set the . desktop profile to point to your script instead of VLC. This way, it's more natural and seamless. But I'm guessing there might be a run as service in the background Option in the settings that might be causing it to hang. Either way, it would benefit the VLC project if you open a bug report and state that it is replicated on various distros. If the devs don't know about it, they can't fix it.

Surprising to see saying VLC isn't the best is a disliked opinion. Like everyone else I swapped to VLC because of the codec nightmare back like 10-20 years ago, but I've been using MPC forks for years now. I think I started using it primarily because of PLUGINS and external renderers. I used a 60 fps interpolation plugin with MPC for a long long time to upscale content in real time to 60fps, I think it was called S4P or something.. (edit: SVP - smooth video project) and I think to this day I still use a third party video and audio renderer, not for SVP but just for performance. Also VLC wouldn't give you full colour depth by default or something so having to go to options to enable it each re-install annoyed me giving you limited colour range like on a TV or something (maybe a false memory?? this was like 10 years ago mind you). Maybe that's not an issue now but the other reason I think I swapped was speed and stability. I think mpc edges out vlc a bit, and it also has I think better configurability on things like choosing how big the window should open on first launch every time, if it should always start maximised or in a window, etc. Good god I just launched vlc and it took 6 seconds to load up its ui. Why the heck? I guess speed might have been a reason then, too. On top of that being able to click on the video itself to play/pause has become something I hate not having in VLC. Also pressing 'O' to launch options instead of ctrl + P is nice (lmao!) Basically I think mpc is better for a power user who has a specific use for the features. One con to the original MPC and even still in the updated MPC-BE fork I've found (not sure if VLC also does this or not) is when sharing screen of MPC in discord and full screening or loading a couple of files in a row on the same window that's being shared, it has a tendency to just hang and crash to desktop which is annoying. Maybe I'll try HC to see if it does that.

Nice video. This just goes to show not everyone has the same experience and while some may have no issues whatsoever, others do. I have been running Linux for quite some time now (many years) in Windows and linux and have never had any issues at all. Yeah, my use of vls is mainly audio and video including network streams and I may find a better program, but being so used to vlc with not one problem, I just see no reason to change. On another note, there is some software in linux where I have had to find alternatives or use a Windows vm because running in Linux was a complete nightmare. I believe the best advice which goes for MANY things is find what works for you, what you like and use that. Everyone will have different experiences and there will always be people who either agree, disagree, or even have no comments at all. What matters is whatever you use you are happy with amd it works the way you desire.

They'll see is great if you want to be able to play any media file on the planet, be able to access network streams on devices in which aren't necessarily compatible with network streams anymore, and be able to play MIDI files on your computer if you don't run windows. It's also great if you need a very short-term screen recorder or if you need a ton of other pretty useful information about the media you're watching. VLC is more than a video player, I get that. But the fact that it's being so multiplatform and so versatile makes it one of the best tools out there. Not having it installed on your system is the same as using Microsoft's included video and audio players. You won't really find a better alternative to VLC because no better alternatives exist.

MPC also changes the pitch when changing the track speed so it's not the preferred one for this function.

Not really familiar with the alternatives you are talking about, part that I know they exist. Using VLC for years for one reason - it just works. So I had no reason to try an alternative. Same as with the last video you did, no reasons given why VLC is bad. You showed some strange and annoying thing that happens on your part, that I just cant believe that it happens "on Linux" in general (works fine here...). For me it feels like you are shilling for different media players, while trying to nitpick on the one strange issue that happens to you and you only. The reason why I clicked on this and the previous VLC clickbaity videos is that maybe I could learn something about another cool program. Both of those videos are dishonest and they made me lose a bit of respect for you.

One HUGE problem VLC has is its sound features. I was mixing down some live music we did, and played it through VLC, and was blown away at how terrible it sounded coming from my standard audio software, which is just Audacity. So I opened it up in another app and it sounded fine. I looked for EQ settings in VLC but what I was getting was phase cancellation. Didn't dig too deep since I could just use another app, but VLC was the only one giving me that problem.

For me, the one brutally frustrating thing about VLC is it's buffering behavior. Specifically, buffering video's coming from SMB/NFS shares. Let's pretend you have a buffer that's 10 units in size. You fill that buffer and start playing. When do you start fetching new data to fill that buffer again? Do you fetch another block once the buffer runs down to 9 units of data left? Do you wait to fetch more data until it's 5 units left? How about 1? Well, VLC seems pretty good at saying "You can set any size buffer you want, but I'll only fill it up again once it's completely empty". GOOD buffering behavior should be a hard spike in network traffic initially, small bumps here and there to keep the buffer filled. Not VLC. Virtually every version I've ever used, doesn't matter if it's Linux, FreeBSD or Windows, they all do the same thing. Fill the buffer, start playing, then sit at nearly zero network traffic until the buffer is empty, then stop playback, fill the buffer, start playback again. Fine, so you just make the buffer bigger. Well, all that really does is ensure you're going to be really mad when it runs that buffer right out and now pauses for 5 to 15 seconds while it fills the buffer again. Honestly, it's got to be the worst buffering behavior in a popular app that I've ever seen.

there is much to like about MPC-HC - I agree - but configuring it for pass-through of multi-channel audio over HDMI is a total headache, unlike VLC where, as Todd Howard would probably say, "it just works". Configuration of MPC-HC for audio is shockingly badly explained online, and if you ask in any of the forums you summarily inevitably get told not to use optical connections often with an explanation of why you shouldn't (when you already said you were using HDMI (no fibre optics involved, duh!)). As you're such a fan of MPC, perhaps you could do a video explaining how to set it up to pass through DTS-HD, DolbyTrue-HD, DD+, Atmos etc for those of us who CAN afford a home theatre AVR, because (even though your video here was made 2 years ago) there is STILL a distinct lack of this information in a simple to digest format, or even, tbh, at all. Not everyone wants to become an expert, conversant with every aspect of the configuration menus of their media player application, just so they can get multi-channel audio to output correctly, when they could just install and run VLC, and it will just work.

I'm sure a lot of this is due to lack of decent graphics support, but there's quite a few players out there for Linux that are a lot lighter on resources.😉
