Since the first hint I've got about the port was all the way back in March and, as I said, about 95% of the code is reused, I have no idea why they didn't have the time to run more tests, but in case you run any bugs, I'm sure that everything will be fixed rapidly. It seems that the team working on the project only used a few Chromebook laptops to see how the player runs, but didn't try it on any desktops.

It also offers subtitle synchronization and video and audio filters. The only drawback is that you cannot set Linux apps as default on Chromebook as they run in their own virtual environment. This is the port of VLC media player to the Chrome OS platform.
#Vlc chromebook install
Now type sudo apt-get install vlc in the terminal to install the Linux version of VLC Player. IF YOU WANT TO WATCH DVDs, GET A DVD PLAYER, NOT A CHROMEBOOKThe new VLC player for Chr. The tool supports hundreds of video formats, including multimedia files, DVDs, audio CDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. First, enable Linux on Chromebook, then open the terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T. According to the official announcement, those who choose to install this initial version of VLC Media Player may encounter a few bugs as the application hasn't been thoroughly tested. VLC is, without a doubt, the best video player for Chromebook. VLC for Chrome OS can play most video and audio files, as well as network streams and DVD.

From what I understand, the Chromebook version is actually a port of the VLC for Android build and the developers have kept about 95% of the original code.


The application is capable of working with pretty much every format that you can encounter (including MKV, FLAC, DVD-specific extensions, etc.), it lets you add subtitles, it allows you to create playlists and is capable of streaming video and audio files. As far as functionality goes, I can tell you that this version of VLC is just as powerful as all its other counterparts from other platforms.
