VLC media player, alternative Linux à MPC-HC

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

VLC is a solid replacement for MPC‑HC on Linux. It can play the same wide range of audio and video formats, supports subtitles and external audio tracks, and is lightweight enough for most systems. It is best suited for users who want a single, cross‑platform player that handles almost everything out of the box, including DVDs, CDs, and network streams. If you need a very minimal footprint or a Windows‑specific UI, you might still prefer MPC‑HC on Windows.

Ouvrir vos fichiers MPC-HC

Both players can open standard video files such as MP4, MKV, AVI, and audio files like MP3, AAC. VLC can also read MPC‑HC’s playlist files (.m3u, .pls). Exporting from MPC‑HC to a format that VLC can play is straightforward; simply save or convert to MP4 or MKV. If you have a proprietary MPC‑HC project file, VLC will not open it, but such files are rarely used for playback.
