LibVLCSharp is a cross-platform audio and video API for .NET platforms based on VideoLAN's LibVLC Library. It provides a comprehensive multimedia API that can be used across mobile, server and desktop to render video and output audio as well as encode and stream.

The official repository URL for this repo is https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibVLCSharp.

  • Hardware and efficient decoding on every platform, up to 8K
  • Network browsing for distant filesystems (SMB, FTP, SFTP, NFS...) and servers (UPnP, DLNA)
  • Playback of Audio CD, DVD and Bluray with menu navigation
  • Support for HDR, including tonemapping for SDR streams
