For Android users, get ready for the VLC for Android. In some website, the VLC media player is currently being ported to Andorid OS. In few days, the VLC for
Android is available officially. VLC is still the best free media player that supports many video formats.
While the open source VLC media player has been pulled from Apple’s iTunes App Store, a new mobile version is in the works for Google Android. Thanks to Google’s open source roots, the Android version should be safe from the sort of legal/licensing issues that brought down the iPhone version.
The developers are working with Google Nexus One, Nexus S, and HTC Desire phones, but the beta will be open to Android users with all sorts of devices for testing purposes. Right now the best performance is available on devices running Android 2.3, but the goal is to support all versions of Android. The developers also plan to spruce up the UI. The early builds of VLC can play video, but the user interface is rough around the edges, to say the least.
