VLC - VideoLan Media Player

The media player of choice.


VLC player is Open Source, hence free, it is the most versatile media player that I have found. I install this as a matter of course on my newly configured media machines.

You can download VLC from the VideoLan website. VideoLan also host the libraries for libdvdcss - for defeating CSS encryption on DVDs. As far as is known this decryption library is only for the Linux platform and possibly works compiled  with the OSX operating system on Apple hardware.


  • error 0x80030309 vlc - This error is most likely to be due to the fact that the file attempted to be played by VLC was encrypted.
