great Software For those that need media player that works. its bit by bit Reading means that even files that are partialy complete will work.
Due to the bit by bit reading of media files it may cause Subtitle overlay issue's, it has advance feature's in the option's that most people dont know what they do. does tend to Color Scramble on older hardware with Certain Files.
All in All an Excellent Player.
It deserves At least a 4/5.

I started to download some files with .flv and I could not open them with my regular player so I had to go in search of a program that was acceptable.
Good thing my search lead me to afterdawn.com and I found this program VLC. It works great!! Install in a minute and I was able to open all my files with it. No Problems so far..

The Net is full of different formats in audio and video. In audio, which is I deal with, there is some normal formats like mp3, ogg, flac, etc. etc. and some more sophisticated like 5.1 dts or dolby. VLC handles all of them without need of codecs, which are all embedded in the program.
If it is needed a solid player VLC is the tool, if is beauty of design or a analytic tool VLC won't be the right player.
Anyway is a tool that cant be missed if you are an audiophile.
