A simple, yet powerful multformat media player

Media Player Classic is a fast, lightweight media player that requires no installation, works as a breeze and supports all popular formats.

The interface in Media Player Classic seems to be inspired in the oldest versions of Windows Media Player. But besides that, Media Player Classic doesn’t have anything in common with Microsoft’s player. It’s a powerful media tool that can play almost any format you can think of, and also has a surprisingly vast array of features.

Among other things, Media Player Classic can play DVD movies, supports subtitles, has real-time pan and scan, captures video frames, and supports video files with multiple audio tracks.All of this in a clean, simple interface with no distracting elements that lets you focus on the important thing: the video playing at that moment.

Media Player Classic may not be your cup of tea if you prefer more complex players with all the bells and whistles. But if all you need is an easy, highly functional media player, this is the program you’re looking for.

Media Player Classic is a simple yet powerful media player with support for many formats and other interesting advanced features.

Top Media Player. Forget about most of the other Media Players around, especially Windows'. Here we have bloat-free software that works & works & works . . . Pros: No bloat.Plays everything you throw at it !Configuring of Sound excellent. Cons: Help files should be included. Be sure to also download the Help / Instruction files - this makes personal configuring so much easier

Original and the best. MS should try to step back now and again to check out where things are going and where they are coming from. Once the extras started appearing on Media Player, it gained weight, slowed down, and things went downhill from there. Now they're fumbling around because of the complexity involved in maintaining compatibility between next release of Windows and all the code heavy, bundled software that exists in today's versions. It's a shame that things have played out in this way but maybe it gives extra credence to the saying, if it ain't broken, don't fix it. And now for the point -> Media Player Classic will play your vids without any complaints whereas the latest official version might mess you around with questions about upgrading, or connecting to the net or even just loading it's really ugly modern skin. Pros: Simple, Low resources use, works! Cons: design doesn't exist
