   VLC Media Player vs MPC-HC Comments

   Top Positive Comment by Guest · Mar 14, 2020

   It's one alternative, not the best, MPC-HC is very very fast and simple , it's a shame that doesn't exist a very MPC-HC equivalent app in Linux comunity.

   It's all about the functionality while playing, the capability in adjusting the control keys and the skip times configuration.

   Yeah, it can be personalized and the wide of the compatible video and audio formats is almost equal, yet VLC is still no capable of being personalized in the important thing to me.
