Paris-based developer VideoLAN on Tuesday announced the arrival of the insanely popular VLC Media Player for the Apple TV. The new app for the Apple device, VideoLAN says, follows the company’s ultimate goal i.e. “VLC plays everything and runs everywhere“.
The app for VLC went under development soon after the 4th generation Apple TV hit the market, the company says. A beta version of the app was rolled out for all developers in November last year. Today, the app finally went public and can be accessible via the App Store on the Apple TV. Just search for ‘VLC’ and you’ll get the desired result.
Just like on any other platform, VLC will support all formats possible without the need of any conversion or decryption. Also, the VLC Apple TV app will be able to play files accessible via Windows Shares, UPnP, FTP and Plex servers, along with those available on the local machine. It will automatically discover network storages and shares and will also be able to download subtitles and artwork.
