VLC media player como alternativa Linux a Loom

Actualizado el

Nuestra opinión

VLC media player is not a good replacement for Loom. It can record the desktop and webcam with the "Record" feature, but it lacks the quick‑trim, annotation, and instant sharing options that Loom offers. Users who only need basic screen capture and local export to MP4 or WebM might find VLC sufficient, but teams that rely on Loom’s collaboration and cloud sharing will need a different tool.

Abrir tus archivos de Loom

Loom does not produce a standard video file that VLC can open; recordings are saved as MP4 or WebM, which VLC can play, but VLC cannot import Loom‑specific project files or metadata. If you have a Loom recording exported as MP4, VLC will play it fine.

Pasar de Loom a VLC media player, paso a paso

  1. Open VLC and go to Media → Convert/Save
  2. Click "Capture Device" tab and select the screen and webcam sources
  3. Choose MP4 as the output format and start recording
  4. After recording, use VLC’s trim feature under Tools → Effects & Filters to cut the clip
  5. Save the trimmed video to a local folder
  6. Share the file manually via email or cloud storage
