VLC is my favorite video player on both Windows and Linux. VLC comes with a simple interface but supports many video formats. I do not have to install many different software in order to play various video files.
To install VLC on Ubuntu 11.10, follow these steps below:
Step 1. Open Ubuntu Software Center. On the search box, type VLC
Step 2. Click on the VLC Media Player and then click Install.
You will be asked to enter your root password to continue.
