Its awesome... MPlayer for Windows provides native support for more than 192 Video and 85 Audiocodecs :)

MuldeR - Thank you - thank you - thank you!!!

you spared me the compilation exercise and I am grateful. I retired from computer programming and wish to remain retired from all aspects of it !!!

I would have gladly paid you for it.

Your file associations will ONLY be changed if you select that option in setup. So obviously you selected that option and you complain? That's silly! Also switch over to the GL renderer for multi-monitor support.

Been using Media Player Classic Home Cinema which has been flawless.

Pros - Great front end included, SMPlayer

Cons- All video formats were automatically switched over to MPlayer. Could not see Video on MultiMonitor setup.

never seen any other freeware as good as this for playing video

the best program! thank you very much!

I tried a few front-ends for MPlayer, and this one was easily the best. The icing on the cake is that MuldeR's installer integrates the very latest mplayer release, his own GUI, and the latest codecs for mplayer's use only (meaning no conflicts with your other codecs). Of course, there are many, many mplayer options that MuldeR could add to the GUI, but he's done a professional-quality job with the basics. The best currently available. And he's done it for free. So, a tip of the hat to you, MuldeR. Thank you.


These reviews should be only for the GUI, the visual interface. Not for the underlying video player, which is a different project by other people. MuldeR is giving us an easy way to interact with the player, which is by default a command-line-only application. He has no control over what features the player does or doesn't have.

It is awesome

6.0 - Super Fantastic!!

There are really only a handful choices for CONSISTENT, RELIABLE media playback:

- MuldeR's flavor of the month (this one)
-- the latest STABLE player core, front-ends, and codecs

- roll your own ffdshow and MediaPlayerCLASSIC
-- this requires time, knowledge, and skill

- CCCP-project.net
-- the vast anime loving hordes making life easy

- VLC
-- some annoyances

- only the ignorant and foolish use the OS bundled WindowsMediaPlayer



because this, like most of the above options, are built upon some flavor of ffdshow the output options are ALL under your control! Dark scnese? boost opacity and gamma to YOUR preference. Save as many output schemes as you please for those ahem TV xvids you have, or your DVD vobs, to your SVCDs, or God forsaken 'Real'media files.

Thanks MuldeR!

WOW!

Rated a 3.9 out of 4 with quite a few votes? This must be the best media player in the world! I have to download it!

And so I did. And used it.

It is a good player. It played stuff. It didn't crash. So far, so good.

But a 3.9? For 3.9 I want some features. Heck, I want a lot of features! I also want library management and a great playlist. I want easy control over brightness, contrast, and my filters, plus I want post-processing support.

I got the last requirement, it'll do post-processing. I didn't get the others. Oh, it has a playlist, but it won't tell you information on the files in the list, like duration. Even WMP has that.

So MPlayer is quite a good player. It is not a 3.9 good player.
