PotPlayer

PotPlayer is a cool application that aims to offer users a simple and effective way of either listening or viewing their favorite media content. You get a clean interface and many options to adjust your experience based on your needs. This app manages to stand out on account of the many perks it puts on the table.

Right, so the app does give one the impression it might lack features. The initial window is simple, divided between your playlist and the preview pane. The main app menu, however, quickly fixes this idea, especially when you notice that you can also capture external video inputs, deal with FTP-integrated media solutions, play DVD content, or simply view your favorite Blu-ray disc media.

Are you looking to add subtitles to the mix? If the answer was yes, then you're in luck. External audio files can be integrated and various drives, external or otherwise, looked into. The open action can be customized to deal with a specific task that the user feels is best in the given scenarios that are faced.

One other aspect that really made me happy was how easy it was to adjust the look of the application before and during its use. When playing certain videos, depending on their format, you might want to resize the app window. Some programs strictly forbid this, but I was really happy to see that was not the case here.

Previously opened files can easily be played with an option that keeps track of what was played before. Thus, you can roll back previous content at any given point. PotPlayer is exactly like a plant. It needs water to grow, and as a result, your task as a user is to feed it media files for it to shine bright.
