A free alternative to Windows Media Player
KMPlayer is a well-known multimedia player that can play movies, music and more. KMPlayer supports various codecs and high-definition services. You can also add external codecs. For the non-techy, this means it can decode various video formats such as 3D, 4K, Ultra High Definition, and even extend the video player’s compatibility if you need it. You can also enjoy your movies with crystal clear image quality on DVD and Blu-ray. A video player’s flexibility to differing file formats is one of the most important features to look for, and KMPlayer scores highly on this. It supports many file formats, including WMV, MKV, OGM, 3GP, FLV, and MOV.
This program has been used by users around the world since October 2002. Its website alone gets more than 100,000 hits per day. It is clearly doing something right. Its popularity could also be explained by its high functionality. Most video players for Windows, including Windows’ default video player (Windows Media Player), have limited functionality. Essentially, they are just a ‘plug-in and play’ software. If there is any problem, or you would like to make subtle changes for your viewing pleasure, there is probably not much you can do about it. KMPlayer, however, gives you huge freedom and seemingly endless means to customize the video player. Not only does it give you more, but it’s also completely free.
