VLC media player suffering in face of crapware and uncaring Google

If you want to download VLC then the official versions are available at the VideoLan website–the organization composed of volunteers who develop the media player. However, if you do a search for VLC on the top two search engines: Google or Bing, a number of malicious links appear alongside the official VideoLan page.

I did a search and the results are just fine, but beware.
 
For some unknown weird reason .flv files don't play in WMP 12 and this is the only reason I use VLC.Is there anyone else facing the same problem?Actually, the WMP just stops at the play screen and cpu usage goes a bit high.
 
FLV is flash media right? WMP is a pretty restricted player. It might play FLV if compatible codecs are installed on the system. Get SMPlayer. 😀
 
I still recommend installing the KLite codec pack and using WMP. WMP then becomes a super player 😀
 
WMP is bloaty and has crappy keyboard shortcuts. And god knows what kind of data is sent to Microsoft servers. I do not remember the last time I used it to play anything on my computer 😀

You might wanna check some codecs...run it through google...!!
There is a thing called K-lite Mega codec pack...just google it...Its a open source thing.. 🙂
 
they are probably not pushing the update automatically to prevent server meltdown. 🙂
