VLC on Android pre-alpha now available for download


android-VLC-1The long wait is over for Android users wanting to have VLC running on Android. VLC  is currently available for Android . The app is at its pre-alpha stage but the good guys from XDA Developer gave some tips and tricks on how to run VLC player on Android.

1. Start your trusty file explorer or terminal app
2. navigate to the /proc/ folder
3. open the file labelled “cpuinfo” in a text editor

Take Note:

Now take a look at the fourth line of text. If you see the word “neon”, you’ve got a phone with a processor that supports NEON extensions, and you should download the VLC version labelled “vlc-neon.apk”. If you don’t see the word “neon” on the fourth line, your phone doesn’t support NEON, so download the version labelled “VLC-noneon.apk”.- androidcommunity.com

The VLC for Android is still in alpha stage so expect some bugs on it.
