Get Information From Wikipedia Directly from VLC Player

In the past I wrote about a add-on for VLC (VideoLan) player, that allows viewers to download subtitles from online sources directly from the player itself. I watch a lot of movies on my computer and Wikipedia is my favorite source for additional information on the movie I am watching. I came across an add-on that allows looking up related information from Wikipedia while I am watching a movie, from the player itself. The latest version of VLC player can be found from here. Make sure you upgrade to it. Now visit Wikipedia Information add-on page and download the ULA extension. If only a code is shows up, copy paste it into a notepad and save the file with .ula extension. Save the file to this path if you are using windows. Windows (all users): %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions\ Now as you can see in the image above, while watching a movie, just click on View >> Wikipedia Lookup.
