MovieSpot is a video player that supports several extensions, including AVI, MPG, M4V, MOV, MKV, ASF and WMV.

The user interface of the tool is clean and intuitive. You can load a video by using the file browser or the "drag and drop" function.

So, you can use basic tools such as play, pause, resume, stop, rewind and forward, adjust the volume and navigate back and forth within the video.

But you can also load subtitles, create and save a playlist, configure video and audio settings (e.g. resolution, full screen, color control, movie mode, aspect ratio, equalizer, dynamic amplification), take a snapshot, add bookmarks and apply filters.

In addition, you can use keyboard shortcuts (but you cannot redefine them), enable the option to turn off the computer after video is done playing, as well as set MovieSpot to always be on top of other applications.

In the "Configuration" menu you can check the option to remember movie settings and position, allow multiple instances, set the playlist font size and CPU priority, make file associations, change the interface language, as well as change subtitle options (e.g. transparent background, shadow effect) and video settings (e.g. always start in movie mode, remember PanScan settings).

The program uses a moderate amount of system resources and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests. Even if a help file is not available, MovieSpot is very simple to use, even by novices. We strongly recommend it.
