VLC media player, alternative Linux à Loom
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
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.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

- Both are free and open source
- Both run natively on Linux
Ce qui change
- VLC has no built‑in trimming or annotation tools
- VLC does not provide a cloud‑based sharing link or collaboration features
- Loom offers a simple one‑click upload to its own platform
- VLC requires manual export and file management
- Loom’s interface is designed for quick, short clips; VLC is a full‑featured media player
Ouvrir vos fichiers 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.

Can VLC record my screen and webcam at the same time?
Yes, select both the video capture device (screen) and audio capture device (microphone) in the Capture Device tab of Convert/Save.
Does VLC offer a quick trim tool?
VLC has a basic trim function in the Effects & Filters dialog, but it is not as user‑friendly as Loom’s built‑in editor.
How do I share a VLC recording quickly?
VLC does not provide a built‑in sharing link; you must upload the file to a cloud service or send it via email yourself.
