VLC media player como alternativa Linux ao Windows Media Player
Atualizado em
Nossa avaliação
VLC is an excellent replacement for Windows Media Player for most Linux users. It plays MP3, MP4, AVI, MKV, FLAC, and WMV files without extra codecs, which Windows Media Player needs on some systems. The interface is straightforward, and basic controls are easy to access. It’s lightweight enough for daily use and runs natively on Linux. Users who only need local playback with occasional subtitle or streaming use will find VLC more capable than Windows Media Player. It’s ideal for those who want one app that just works across formats without fuss.

Abrindo seus arquivos do Windows Media Player
VLC opens all common files that Windows Media Player handles—MP3, MP4, AVI, MKV, FLAC, and WMV—without additional setup. It also supports less common or partially corrupted files that Windows Media Player often rejects. You can directly open these files from file managers or command line. VLC doesn’t rely on system codecs, so compatibility is consistent across Linux distributions. Exporting or converting files is possible through VLC’s 'Convert' or 'Stream' functions, though batch processing requires manual work.
