The VideoLAN Forums

Everyone knows that there is no beautiful player on the Tizen system -
why not make the player on Tizen with the addition of many options, for example

fetch translation
Shadow control of subtitle fonts

Well control the outline

with added fonts

There is no player that works these things on Samsung TVs

Why isn't vlc the first app in samsung tv

There was a port, but nobody could be available to maintain it after some time: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-tizen

When searching in the Samsung TV app store, there is no vlc app

Do you mean it was already available?

It means it's not available, and will not be.

I have a samsung Tizen TV, Samsung stopped updating it, netflix and plex stopped working.
Has anyone tried to compile and run this port?
https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-tizen
I'd like to help get this to work.

The main author quit the project many years ago, and the second author... rage-quit VideoLAN a few years back.

So probably nobody specifically knows how to build it. But there is README there with some basic instructions.
