Video Players Apps and Alternatives

13 applications in this hubLast updated: Oct 8th 2023, 18:39 GMT

Since computers have become accessible on a very large scale, users are no longer satisfied with the multimedia tools included in the OS, and they prefer to rely on third-party applications, especially when dealing with videos.

There are numerous movie players that integrate codec packs by default, so that users no longer need to download and install them separately.

There are also users who prefer lightweight apps, that do not require a lot of RAM or disk space in order to run smoothly (some of these utilities are also portable).

Some video players can be very complex, and they support editing and conversion, as well as uploading to various servers.
