Play video in VirtualBox guest

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 4330 / 3 Years ago, tue, june 29, 2021, 3:07:17

I am installing Windows 7 today with Ubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 as a VirtualBox guest. Can Ubuntu (as a guest) play 2D videos within VirtualBox? Is there anything I need to install or enable?

I remember Windows 7 as a VirtualBox guest can play videos, but I don't remember how good a quality they were.

Hopefully someone out there knows what todo.

Yes, VirtualBox will play videos just fine, and quality should be good as long as the guest additions are installed.
