From the simple basic pack, which includes the most common video and audio codecs and includes subtitle support, the K-Lite Codec Pack Basic version will allow the majority of users to watch and listen to their content with relative ease.

The most common codecs like DirectShow, MKV decoders, and MP4 decoders are installed in K-Lite Codec Pack Basic so there is not much more needed for every day viewing. Even though K-Lite Codec Pack Basic supports audio, it is meant for video. With the numerous video codecs and encoders creating files that are high quality with smaller file sizes, native Windows support does not exist for all the variations.

The different tested content in K-Lite Codec Pack Basic included MP4, AVI, WMV, and MKV; all at different levels of quality and resolutions. The codec pack had no problem playing any of the files in Windows Media Player. K-Lite Codec Pack Basic also supports different subtitle formats like SRT, SUB, and IDX, but take a little customizing for the subtitles to display properly.

While most people listen to streaming music or video now, there are occasions when you do not have a data connection and locally stored files are your only option. PotPlayer is an excellent media player that can handle a large variety of media file types.

Playback quality will depend on the hardware the program is installed on, but in tests, PotPlayer had no problem playing a 1.6 GB MOV file, 865 MB MKV, or a 1.4 GB AVI. Smaller files should play back without any issues as well. You can toggle file information and see an in-depth breakdown of file information including CPU usage.

There is subtitle support in PotPlayer for .ass and .srt files and will natively play subtitles if they are located in the same folder as the video file. The amount of options in PotPlayer are great. You can optimize PotPlayer to get the best performance, but the default settings work fine for the majority of videos.

PotPlayer can also play audio files. It includes default visualizations or you can download more online. The program provides a lot of information about the audio file like bitrate, file type, and the number of channels. Like other media players, there are also audio presets for the equalizer and they all work pretty well. It it is not a substitute for a good stereo, but does have an effect on the audio.

The program is by Daum, a Korean company, but the program is presented entirely in English during and after installation. One annoyance is that PotPlayer does not show in the taskbar, only in the notification area, so to use the program, you either have to have it running in an open section on your screen or find it in notifications.

PotPlayer is a good alternative to first party media players. The stable build has a large variety of supported formats and the quality of playback is excellent for both video and audio.

When I want to watch videos on my PC I always look for a light-weight, simple-to-use player. Media Player Classic Homecinema then, is just the kind of app I like.

This simple yet full featured video player is based on the original Media Player Classic, a great open source Windows multimedia player. Shortly after the developer of this original project stopped working on it, another group of developers started coding a new player with extended functionality, though trying at the same time to keep the essence of the original program.

As a result of this, Media Player Classic Homecinema keeps exactly the same appearance as its predecessor, which makes it really easy to use – even if you have never used Media Player Classic before. It also maintains the same great features the original player offered, that is, ability to play DVD, support for subtitles and more. Oh, and best of all, it doesn't require installation.

Besides the original features, Media Player Classic Homecinema also lets you enjoy new interesting functionality such as additional video codecs (particularly H.264 and VC-1), better integration with Windows Vista (including a special 64-bit version), several bug and vulnerability fixes and option to remove tearing from your video files, though sadly I didn't figure out how to use this last feature.

If you're a Media Player Classic user, you're going to love this revamped version of your favorite player. And if you're not, it's about time you start using this great program.

Winamp offers everything you might want in a media player. Using the skins, you can set Winamp to look like the original or the current default which looks great and puts you in control of all your media quickly and easily.

I particularly like the minimized player that consists of a small bar that you can place on the edge of your screen. Of course, if neither of these agree with your taste you can download and try any of the thousands others available on the Winamp website.

Winamp supports a wide range of file formats, and because the program is small and simple, it works quickly on almost all computers. Have a look through the available plug-ins and you will also find that you can hook up your iPod and manage its music library.

Winamp may have been around for ever, but it hasn't been left behind and is a fully featured music player that's really customizable.
