I just bought a whitebook and started downloading applications. I havent decided whether to keep/download VLC, WMV, or Quicktime. I currently have Quicktime however when I used to use a PC I used both VLC and WMV.
Now that I've switched I'm unsure of which to use.
My question is which would you prefer in terms of quality and memory space. Should I uninstall Quicktime and install VLC or should I just keep both?
Thanks

As an all-inclusive video player application, VLC Player has the HEVC support built-in for both the Windows version and the Mac version. So theoretically, VLC should have no problem handling HEVC or H.265 video materials.
