Versie 2.2.0 van VLC Media Player is uitgekomen. Deze opensource- en cross-platformmediaspeler kan diverse audio-, video- en streamingformaten afspelen, zonder dat hiervoor de desbetreffende codec hoeft te worden geïnstalleerd. In versie 2.2.0, die met WeatherWax net als de vorige versie naar een karakter uit de Discworld-boeken van Terry Pratchett is vernoemd, wordt onder meer het Vertical Video Syndrome aangepakt, onthoudt de desktop nu ook waar hij gebleven is en is de ondersteuning voor hd-codecs, zoals vp9, opus en h265/hevc, verbeterd. Verder kunnen extensies nu direct vanuit de mediaspeler worden gedownload en wordt de Android-versie niet langer als bèta aangeboden.
