Video Player

Handling video files these days can be a real challenge, considering both the increase in the abundance of available formats, as well as the characteristics of the said formats, such as quality and other parameters. Having a simple approach to video playback can save you of a lot of issues and one might say that Video Player was developed precisely for such purposes.

The application comes packed with a truly basic interface that carries a simple layout that will facilitate all operations. Users can add one or several video files, using the provided file navigator feature.

However, no drag-and-drop capabilities are provided and this might bother those who are accustomed to working in such a way. The playlist has only one way of visualizing the file list, and we believe that this is also restrictive.

Since this is a player app at heart, it is fair to assess its capabilities from this perspective, and to that end, we found the included playback interface to be both accessible and competent enough. Of course, there are only the essentials provided, but that’s what most users might be requiring anyway.

Last but not least, the included frame capture tool can help you easily save a preferred video frame and the application even comes with a dedicated screen capture history, where you can access all of the past captures.

Although borderline crude, this minimalist video player does carry all the necessary ingredients for a pleasant video playback experience, especially for novice users or, simply those who need a “no-fuss” tool for visualizing their preferred videos.
