VLC for Windows 8 and above , Windows Phone 8 is being prepared for release. The important features are -support for all usual VLC formats, including MKV and FLAC, -audio :D -video, (with correct aspect ratios), -basic subtitles support, -file and network stream support, -a simple, but working UI, -passing the WACK certification, -working on Windows 8 and 8.1. Here is some more info from the kickstarter page We are preparing the release, fixing the important bugs, notably an audio crash that got us rejected from the store. We have numerous small bugs that are annoying, notably some thumbnails, crashing and the audio browsing part. We hope to work on it until this week-end and then submit once again. As soon as we have one release out, all the code will be open sourced, and we will welcome contributions, notably on the UI/XAML part. At the same time, were spending quite a bit of time to get a working version for ARM, so we can deploy on Windows RT too. We dont know exactly how much time, but we hope its a matter of weeks. The issues are mostly compiler related. Windows Phone should not need a lot of extra work for the API, but will require some work for files management. Adaptation of the basic UI should be simple enough. Here is the kickstarter link kickstarter/projects/1061646928/vlc-for-the-new-windows-8-user-experience-metro/posts/681925
