The functionality is great, and like you said, it can play pretty much anything. But the UX feels like it’s stuck in the late 90s, and the following are more ugly and painful than they need to be:
playlists
streaming
converting file types
It can do a ton of stuff, but none of it is particularly intuitive, because the UX sucks. But it works great at the basic functionality I need, which is playing pretty much any video format.
VLC UX kinda sucks, but it does everything I need it to.
Agreed, considering VLCs functionality it can look ugly as hell
What sucks about it? I just use it because it seems to play literally any video format
The UX.
