VLC media player 2.2.0

VLC media player is het populairste alternatief voor Windows Mediaspeler. En het voordeel van VLC is dat de applicatie bijna alle audio- en video-bestanden kan afspelen. Je hebt dus maar één mediaspeler nodig voor al je muziek en films - in welk formaat dan ook.

VLC media player 2.2.0 is gisteren uitgebracht. Dit is de eerste uitgave van VLC sinds vorige zomer en dus ook één met veel vernieuwingen en verbeteringen. Ook is VLC voor iOS weer terug in de App Store, na een afwezigheid sinds het najaar.

Enkele highlights uit deze nieuwe versie zijn:
- VLC roteert video's nu automatisch, zodat je niet naar 'verticale filmpjes' hoeft te kijken die vooral met smartphones gemaakt worden (door mensen die hun telefoon dus rechtop houden tijdens het filmen)
- VLC hervat video's waar je gebleven bent. Dit werkt op pc, laptop, tablet en smartphone.
- De ondersteuning voor nieuwe HD codecs zoals VP9, opus en H.265/HEVC is verbeterd.
- Extensies kun je vanaf nu downloaden vanuit VLC zelf. Dit kan met de Addon-beheerder.
- Ondertitels kunnen rechtstreeks gedownload worden met OpenSubtitles.

Verder is de GPU-acceleratie voor video verbeterd en worden natuurlijk weer meer codecs ondersteund om nog meer bestandsformaten te kunnen afspelen. Voor Mac-gebruikers is de interface aangepast voor OS X Yosemite.
Ook zijn heel veel foutjes opgelost, verbeteringen doorgevoerd en lekken dichtgeplakt. Enkele video-filters zijn toegevoegd, zoals Old Movie en VHS. En TLS is als beveiliging toegevoegd voor onder andere FTP-overdrachten. Ten slotte zijn de vertalingen, waaronder de Nederlandse, bijgewerkt. Verdere details over deze uitgave kun je hieronder nalezen.

VLC 2.2.0 is in het Nederlands te downloaden.  Er zijn ook versies van VLC voor Android en iOS.
