Had to install VLC last week because the Windows player didn't have the codec to play a video someone sent me from their smartphone. Seems like a pretty common use case to not have figured out..

They make you pay for some codecs, it might have been that.

It's licensing bullshit. They refuse to pay the codec license mafia (idk how the organization is called)

Don't care. They have trillions of dollars. They can figure something out.
