The beloved software to run videos is now available on Windows 8. What makes it interesting? Is it more user friendly and enhanced? So let us know more about this software. Starting with its features will be a good Idea.
VLC for Windows 8 Features
This software has a solid file support which includes MKV format. This player felt a but Buggy for me though. It looks good. There is a very minimum functionality in this player. The most important drawback is that it has no playlists. There is also an ability to select folders. This player is free, no ads and also never asks you to upgrade.
But it asks you to update when there is a new update available but those are free.Does everything for non-profit and is a brilliant product. This software is finally launched on the Windows store for Windows 8. This software does support all video formats. Yes, I mean all known video formats. There is no ARM support yet for the software.
So it is good for Desktop users. But for the ARM Windows RT tablet this software will not work out well. The interface is clean and neat. Any new user will find it easy to use. No complex things. There is a small case, where in there is no thumbnail for FLV or MKV format videos.
So when you see the tile view it looks messy. So the normal features of volume, fast forward, rewind, subtitles are there. But the subtitles does not start automatically. That is a problem or these guys have forgot while programing it.
NO Playlist makes it a very negative point. Why will a user play music on it when there is no playlist. The user will have to play one song at a time and there will be no queue as such. But a useful software to play videos on Windows 8.
