VLC media player is a free software media player by the VideoLAN project.
It is a highly portable multimedia player, encoder, and streamer supporting many audio and video codecs and file formats as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It is able to stream over networks and to transcode multimedia files and save them into various different formats. VLC used to stand for “VideoLan Client”, but that meaning is deprecated.
It is one of the most platform-independent players available, with versions for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, BSD, Windows CE, Linux, and Solaris, and is widely used with over 40 million downloads for version 0.8.6.
VLC uses a large number of free decoding and encoding libraries. Many of its codecs are provided by the libavcodec codec library from the FFmpeg project, but it uses mainly its own muxer and demuxers. It also gained distinction as the first player to support playback of encrypted DVDs on Linux by using the libdvdcss DVD decryption library.

Xmcd is a full-featured CD Player and Ripper software package. It includes two programs:
xmcd - for the X window system using the Motif® graphical user interface
cda - a shell command-line utility which also features a curses-based, screen-oriented mode
Both utilities transform your computer’s CD or DVD drive into a stereo CD player, allowing you to play music CDs on your computer. Moreover, they also work as a CD ripper which allows you to extract full-quality digital audio data from your CDs and play them real time, save them to files or pipe them to other utilities for processing. Many file formats are supported, including WAV, AU, AIFF, MP3, AAC, MP4, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC.
Xmcd is designed to be attractive, feature-rich yet intuitive to use, and takes advantage of many CD drive capabilities that are not accessible via other software. Unlike other general media players that tries to do it all, xmcd focuses on the CD, and strives to be the best with this medium.
Xmcd supports CD recognition via Gracenote CDDB®. It can connect to the CDDB servers on the Internet to get the artist, disc title, song titles and other information about the CD you’re playing. Xmcd uses the enhanced CDDB² service on some platforms to provide even richer content. The CDDB concept, originally pioneered for xmcd, is now the de facto standard source for online music information. Xmcd works with many firewall proxy configurations for CDDB server access. Moreover, xmcd supports CD-TEXT on drives that has this capability.
Xmcd contains “wwwWarp”, a portal to the web browser that offers search and dynamic content capabilities based on the CD you’re listening to. “Local Discography” is a sub-feature of wwwWarp, and provides a browser-based means of navigating and maintaining your CD collection, sound files, and other related data. There is also a feature-specific help and documentation system, command-line control, remote control, plus much more!
