Kodi does a great job of playing audio and video. However, if you prefer VLC Media Player, the good news is you can use that to watch all (or just some) of your Kodi content.

The VLC.exe is probably listed as being in C:Program FilesVideoLANVLC. If the program is actually installed in C:Program Files (x86)VideoLANVLC, you’ll need to change the path in the script to that.
Save the file and open Kodi. Launch your favorite streaming add-on, and find a stream to watch.
Right-click it, choose 'Play using…' from the menu, and then select VLC. Your stream will open in the external media player and you can start watching.
