VLC Media Player Portable is the ‘take-away’ version of the prestigious VLC media player.
VLC is an application for playing multimedia files created by university students and developers around the world, thanks to its GPL licence.
One of VLC’s interesting features is that it transmits video over a network. Specifically, it can be used as a server for transmitting video over a unicast or multicast network or as a client for playing data flows in video format that come from the Internet or an internal network.
With VLC you can select scenes from a film, put the video on slow motion and much more.
It lets you work with MPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, XviD, WMV, WMA, MP3, WAV, OGG, SVCD, DVD formats and more.
All these features can be carried on a mobile device to run VLC on any computer without it needing to be installed.
