While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

VideoLAN is made out of awesome!

VideoLAN is one of the very few applications without which life as we know it is impossible. I mean it! I've been using it for years, on my (former) Mac, on Linux, on Windows and even on my Nvidia Shield TV Pro. Just donated 20 bucks. Should've done that earlier! You rock, guys, keep it up!

bugs

Can't figure out how to log in to the support portal using github, it requries 2 factor authentication and isn't clear what this pin code they want is. So all I wanted to do was to inform videolan that the 'continue playback' function doesn't work on MacOS Ventura.
