Send to VLC (VideoLAN) player

This extension observes network activity and offers send-to-VLC functionality when a streamable media is detected. This way you can watch media streams in your VLC media player instead of the built-in media player and use the power of VLC for watching or listening to media sources.

There are many optimizations performed on this extension to make it as lightweight as possible. For instance, the background page of the extension is in nonpersistent mode and hence the extension does not use any resource when it is inactive. Also, media detection algorithm does not demand usual observation and hence it is much lighter compared to other similar extensions.

Notes:
1. For the extension to be able to send media resources to an external executable such as VLC music player, a small native client needs to be installed. For more info please check the FAQs page of the extension

3. You can copy all the detected links from right-click context-menu item over the toolbar button.
