VLT (VLC Media Player Skin File) is a .vlt file extension associated with the VLC Media Player, a free, open-source multimedia platform. VLT files contain Visual Learning Tools developed by VLC, which are designed to change the look and feel of the player interface. These files primarily contain layouts and designs for various skins that alter the size and color of elements within VLC’s user interface, allowing users to customize it in a variety of ways.
VLT files are stored in an XML format, meaning they can be opened and modified with any text editor such as WordPad or Notepad. They are also just plain text files, so they can be manipulated further with a simple HTML editor. While most people who make use of this plugin will use the graphical interface, it is possible to manually edit VLT files if desired.
Similar File Extensions
In addition to VLT, other similar file extensions used to customize audio and video players include .vmc, .vpl, f3z, and .fsz. All of these formats can be used to control how the audio or video player looks and functions, and while none of them are directly compatible with each other, they are often used together to increase the range of customization available.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for LINUX system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .VLT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .VLT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .VLT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .VLT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .VLT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .VLT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .VLT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .VLT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .VLT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .VLT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
