There are several ways to install any software on Centos. We will be using YUM to install vlc. Before installing it you should check the version of Centos you are using by below command.

cat /etc/centos-release

Now according to version of centos follow the instructions:-

For Centos 7

Step 1: Install EPEL

yum install epel-release

If you face any difficulty to install EPEL then follow the link.

rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el7/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-1.el7.nux.noarch.rpm

For Centos 6

Step 1: Run below commands

rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el6/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-2.el6.nux.noarch.rpm

Step 2: Update Yum

yum update

Step 3: Install VLC
