On Windows that is C:Program Files (x86)VideoLANVLCluaextensions. The lua files you download here must be placed in a specific folder, depending on the operating system. Some plugins work on Linux but not on Windows, or they only work with an older version of VLC. But beware, because there is quite a bit of chaff among the wheat. Here you will find the complete collection and the plug-ins are given a rating. The range of plug-ins you can find in the menu Additional in VLC is only a small part of what is available. Lua is a lightweight scripting language used in certain programs. Many extensions or plugins made for VLC are lua files. When you click the More information button on a selected extension, you will read the name of the lua script at the bottom. Whichever way you use, a new extension won’t work until you restart VLC. Our advice is: initially just try it via the add-ons manager, but that doesn’t work, then you have to manually drag the lua script to the correct folder. Often the add-on manager does not find certain plugins or installs them incorrectly, causing them not to work. The built-in add-ons manager may be the easiest way to enable and disable plugins, but we’ve found to our frustration that there is a problem in the latest version of VLC. Tip 02 You can see which plug-ins are already installed. Then select the installed plugin and click remove. Then don’t forget the box Installed only to tick.
To remove an installed plugin, follow the same steps. Then the button to install the add-on appears. To activate a plugin, click on the desired item in the right-hand box. If you know the name of a plugin, you can also search for it directly via the search box. If you only want to give VLC a new look, select the category Theme. The extensions are in sections with somewhat confusing names: Playlist Processing, Service discovery… In this window, select the tab Addon Admin and tick the box Installed only off so that you can also see the uninstalled extensions. After launching the application, go to the menu Tools / Plugins and extensions. The easiest way is the installation from within VLC itself. There are several ways to add extensions to VLC. Search by hash only works if the video file has not been converted or modified. Instead of searching by name, you can also search by hash. In the case of series, you should also specify the season and the number of the episode, so that the results list does not become too long. Then select the movie or series you are looking for from the search results and click on Download selection. At the top, select the desired subtitle language and enter the title of the movie or series. The plugin helps to search and download subtitles for episodes of series and movies. This is the only plugin that comes standard in VLC. Tip 01: VLSubĪ warm-up to start with: VLSub. And if you find that the media player still lacks a certain function, chances are there is an add-on or plug-in for it that fills that gap. This media player’s popularity is due to three things: free, ad-free and supports hundreds of file formats. VLC is installed on millions of computers.
