Die 2.0 and later version of VLC Media Player support Blu-ray media playback with some extra operations. Dear at all, maybe is it possible to get VLC Portable as standard player for all multimedia files. We are thinking about it, to get this player on a few of Desktops as standard player, but don´t want to configure all media files on each desktop. Thanks in advance pfeifera. Trying to configure a GPO to make a file type mp3 and others to open in VLC player instead of the default windows media player. If I create a GPO to update folder option in Computer Configuration to associate mp3 to VLC media file (.mp3) nothing happens and GPO results shows its the winning GPO. Check any file types for which you want VLC to be the default player, or just check the select all option. Right-click on the type of file you want to always open with VLC. Click 'Get Info'. In the 'Open With' section, select VLC from the drop-down menu. To apply this change to all files of this type, click the 'Change All' button.

VideoLAN is in discussion with SHOUTcast to solve the current SHOUTcast issue. We'll keep you posted as soon as possible.

VLC can easily access media from UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) as well as DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance). The option is available in the View > Playlist section of the media player. UPnP and DLNA allow you to stream content over your local network. You can see televisions make use of this feature to access videos from your laptops and other devices supporting the standard. It’s like sharing the media content that you have on your computer or phone to other devices without the need to copy and move files. All of them should be connected to the same network or Wi-Fi.

If you have VLC on your computer, you will be accessing the files available via UPnP as well as DLNA. There should be another device sharing media files using this standard or protocol. It’s like a private network for audio and video files.

Here’s how you access media from UPnP or DLNA using VLC:

• Open up VLC Media Player.
• Go to View > Playlist [CTRL + L].
• On the left under Local Network, click on Universal Plug’n’Play.
• You’ll see a list of files or streaming networks listed on the left.
• Browse through them and right click on them to Play, Stream or Add to Playlist.
• You will be playing media from your network in some time.

Note: It can take some time for VLC to discover and list all the folders and sub-folders from your UPnP and DLNA servers.
