VLC is one of the popular media player for Windows, Mac OS X and other platform. Recently, VideoLAN has released VLC 2.0.2. Among the major changes in the version, the VLC player now support Retina display. That means its application interface will be displayed at inherent resolution. The update enlarges not only to icons and menus, but also to the video content.

Lot of changes has been released for this version. For example, the aspect ratio is respected like in the 1.1.x releases. For this reason, the Retina Display (HiDPI) on the new MacBook Pro is natively supported. Font cache also has been removed therefore VLC for Mac will never ask to wait for it, but it will still find all fonts. This update also includes video output improvements for a vast number of PowerPC-based Macs which is equipped with an ATI Radeon 7500, an ATI Radeon 9200 or a NVIDIA GeForceFX 5200 Ultra as well as Intel-based Macs with an Intel GMA 950.
