In addition, the upgrade also comes with enhancements to work properly on macOS Big Sur, a fix for audio distortions and adaptive streaming resolution, and security improvements. VLC 3.0.12 comes with a version ready for M1 Macs (and any future Macs with Apple Silicon chips). Having a Mac app compatible with the Apple Silicon platform means that the software can take full advantage of the new hardware with faster performance and also better energy efficiency, which is great for MacBook users. Users can now enjoy VLC running at maximum performance on Apple Silicon Macs.
VLC is one of the most popular multi-platform media players, and its macOS version is getting a major update today with full support for M1 Macs.
