Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Open in VLC™ media player extension, sends video and audio links to the well-known VLC media player. This way you can directly watch online streams in the VLC media player with just one click. To send these links to the VLC media player, right-click over the video or audio link and use the context menu item or use the browser action button. If the extension only grabs a single link, the link is opened in the player. If multiple links are detected, you will get a prompt box to select media links to be sent to the player.
Note: For this extension to work, you will need to install a minimal native-client application. Instruction on how to install the native client will be displayed once the extension is used. You can also watch installation instruction on the FAQs page
How to use this extension:
1. The extension appends a context menu item to the browser context menu when the media element is the target.
2. The toolbar icon becomes active (colorful) when a page is supported
As of version 0.2.0, there is a tool to join media files in a single media file. You can find this tool on the right-click context menu over the page action button. The output format of this tool is WAV. You can use VLC to convert this WAV file to any other audio format.

The icon has a red "E" on it, which I'm pretty sure means error. Would be great if it told me what was wrong.
dobar za reprodukciju audio i video ali neradi mu downloder . ocena 4
3 HOURS WASTED AND I AM NOT SURE WHY I DID NOT GIVE UP SOONER I MUST BE CRAZY WHEN MY GRANDSON GETS OUT OF MIT I WILL ASK HIM TO SEE IF HE CAN GET IT TO WORK FOR NOW I WILL NOT LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO GET THE INFORMATION TECH Phd. ONE NEEDS TO GET THIS TO WORK - IF INDEED IT CAN WORK I CANNOT SAY ONE WAY OR THE OTHER Ciao for now DRC
Chrome will not allow this to open.
Maybe it was working before but at least for YouTube it is not working now.
Did not work
It works flawlessly on Windows 11/Chrome and does to the job :D Thanks to the developer.
Only works if you know how to script code everything might be useful for Rumble since no media player exists if not I wish VLC would update a patch for it to work on Rumble to add a third party mediaplayer for Linux I wish this could bypass VUDU and make it work on Linux as well.
the extension didnt work for me on Firefox, googlechrome or edge. i had to download the program to my PC
