VLC media player joins the Apple Silicon train

VLC

I have been using the media player for many years VLC. It was a good option to view Movistar + content on your computer, if you are a subscriber to the platform, instead of using a browser for this purpose. A great free application, which accepts all kinds of video codecs.

VideoLAN has just announced that VLC already has its specific version for the new Macs Apple silicon. It already runs natively on the company's new M1 processor, thus squeezing its full potential. One more app that gets on the Apple Silicon high-speed train.

VLC is one of the most popular cross-platform players. Free, ad-free, and compatible with a wide range of video and audio codecs, it has undoubtedly made it a must-have application on any computer. Your macOS version has just received a major update with full support for M1-based Macs. From now on you can enjoy VLC running at maximum performance in the new Apple Silicon.

The latest VLC update 3.0.12 has a specific version for Macs with an M1 processor. In addition, the new version also comes with improvements to work properly on Big Sur macOS, a solution for streaming adaptive resolution and audio distortion, and some additional security enhancements.

Keep in mind that from now on there are two different versions of VLC, one for Mac Intel and one for Mac M1. Once you update the VLC application for macOS to version 3.0.12, If your Mac mounts the M1 processor, you will have to reinstall another later version, the 3.0.12.1, especially for Apple Silicon.

VLC is available for free and can be obtained through the official page of VideoLAN. The iPhone, iPad and Apple TV version of VLC is available for free from the App Store.
