VLC media player for macOS updated with full support for M1 Macs. Posted by 8 months ago. Been using IINA since I got my M1 chip, it supports. VLC media player currently runs natively on M1 Macs. The latest update to omnipresent open-source media player VLC is here, and it accompanies local help for Apple silicon Mac PCs — the new forms of the MacBook Pro, the MacBook Air, and the Mac smaller than usual with Apple’s own M1 processor. VLC 3.0.12 additionally incorporates some.
Devices and Mac OS X version
VLC media player requires Mac OS X 10.7.5 or later. It runs on any Mac with a 64-bit Intel processor or an Apple Silicon chip. Previous devices are supported by older releases.
Note that the first generation of Intel-based Macs equipped with Core Solo or Core Duo processors is no longer supported. Please use version 2.0.10 linked below.
If you need help in finding the correct package matching your Mac's processor architecture, please see this official support document by Apple. You can also choose to install a Universal Binary.
Web browser plugin for Mac OS X
Support for NPAPI plugins was removed from all modern web browsers, so VLC's plugin is no longer maintained. The last version is 3.0.4 and can be found here. It will not receive any further updates.
