Whereas most media players need to download several external codecs to play some file formats, the VLC media player is capable of playing almost all types of video formats without downloading any codecs. The application also lets you install extensions to add additional features and a smooth viewing experience. For example, you can use the Skin Editor tool to create a new look or choose from the preset options instead. It offers multiple customization options. The player can also be controlled using the command line, so its features go beyond a simple media player.
VLC Media Player’s interface seems too simple and you can modify it using skins. VLC allows you to search and download the appropriate subtitle files for a movie or series from the web by using an extension called VLsub.
It supports more than 15 subtitle formats such as SRT, AQT, CVD, TXT, SSF, SUB, TTXT, PSB, PJS, JSS, SSA, SVCD, IDF, RT, and more or local files extracted from disk.
