VideoLAN Client (VLC media player) 1.0.2 (Source code)

This is a Media Player that is Open-Source!

Seed this out! :D



VLC media player (initially VideoLAN Client) is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG, DivX/Xvid, Ogg, and many more) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. However in recent years it has also become a extremely powerful server to stream live and on demand video in several formats to our network and the Internet.



It started as a student project at the French École Centrale Paris but is now a worldwide project with developers from 20 countries.



VLC is built in a modular way. This means that you can choose from a range of different modules to decide how to control VLC and how to display the video output.
