VLC updated to 3.0, finally with Chromecast support
VLC, or as some may know it VideoLAN Client, has updated their
app universally. The new versio of the popular media player has finally
reached v3.0, and it brings some new and highly anticipated features.
The new versio is available for all VLC supported platforms, both mobile
and desktop. You'll be able to enjoy HDR videos and support for
hardware encoding is now available for all platforms. However, the most
important new feature is probably support for Google's media device
Chromecast.
People have been long requesting the feature to, what for many is, the ultimate media player. VLC has finally added a beta version of this feature to VLC 3.0, but unfortunately you can't take advantage it on all platforms.
Currently Google's Cast feature is available only on the Android and Chrome OS, while VLC is also available on Android TV, Linux, macOS, iOS, Apple TV, and Windows. Also not that as the feature is still in beta it means that you might encounter some problems and bugs.
Perhaps by v3.5 we'll have a more wide range of platforms to choose when it comes to Chromecast support and hopefully the beta label has been stripped.
You can download the VLC from here:
VLC for Windows, 32-bit
VLC for Windows, 64-bit
And the rest of the editions you can find from here. Mobile editions can be found from app stores.
