Vlc Player Mac El Capitan Download

QuickTime Player comes last in our list of top movie player for Mac. Developed by Apple, it's apparently among the options of Mac media players (El Capitan or Yosemite) to play Internet video, HD movie trailers, and personal media clips. However, same as a Mac, the formats supported by QuickTime is very limited. VLC Media Player is an Open Source Multimedia Player licensed with GPL that allows you to view videos and listen to audios in practically any format. VLC Media Player can play any video or audio format, including MPEG, WMV, AVI, MOV, MP4, MKV, H.264/AVC, FLV, MP3 and OGG, along with many others. Owning to the update of Mac OS, VLC media player is not able to work perfectly on El Capitan until now. What’s more, MKV (matroska) is a general use container, and as such the.mkv files can contain many tracks with different audio and video compression formats, which can cause problems during playback.

Devices and Mac OS X version

VLC media player requires Mac OS X 10.7.5 or later. It runs on any Mac with a 64-bit Intel processor or an Apple Silicon chip. Previous devices are supported by older releases.
Note that the first generation of Intel-based Macs equipped with Core Solo or Core Duo processors is no longer supported. Please use version 2.0.10 linked below.

If you need help in finding the correct package matching your Mac's processor architecture, please see this official support document by Apple.

Support for NPAPI plugins was removed from all modern web browsers, so VLC's plugin is no longer maintained. The last version is 3.0.4 and can be found here. It will not receive any further updates.
