This is the list of some of the best media players available.4)Real Player 15.0.4.53
The all-in-one digital media player that lets you find anything and play everything
RealPlayer is an all-in-one media player that's able to play virtually all multimedia files out there, while offering users a bunch of extra features.
The installer is full of options, allowing to choose right from the beginning whether to place shortcuts on desktop, to use RealPlayer for opening multimedia files that are not yet associated with another application or to install some other applications that have nothing in common with RealPlayer.
This is the reason why RealPlayer is marked as ad-supported, as it attempts to install two additional tools, both of which are not required for the program to work properly.
The application may not surprise you at the first sight, as RealPlayer greets the user with its now well-known browsing window. The interface is simple, yet stylish and comprises the player itself, a Library section that allows you to organize your media content and a CD burner.
RealPlayer has support for most audio and video formats out there, boasting the same features as many other digital media players out there, including playlists, libraries, equalizers and even burning capabilities. Of course, RealPlayer also allows you to listen to online radio stations, as the app includes over 3200 stations from all over the world.
What we liked the most was definitely the fact that RealPlayer can handle basically all multimedia files on your computer, but on the other hand, a few interface upgrades here and there would be great.
RealPlayer acts as a multimedia center for your computer. It is not just a player, but it can also be tagged as a media organization tool and a CD burning utility. All of these, together with its accessibility and ease of use make it worth your while.

3)JetAudio 8.0.17.2010
Integrated multimedia software for ripping, encoding and playing your files
jetAudio provides users with an all-round multimedia manager. It supports the majority of both audio and video formats as well as Winamp plugins. It is definitely more than just a music player and that creates some kind of diversion given the title that it bears.
During its installation, jetAudio will offer third-party applications that you can choose to ignore and that makes it an `ad-supported` application on Softpedia. The multimedia suite asks for your attention on its first run as it displays a list of options regarding its functionality as an audio/video player or media center for multimedia files management.
Once you finally get to the main interface of the application, you learn that things can really be complicated. There are just too many functions packed within a small window and this crowded space tends to turn into a vertigo effect. The options that escape though are the `Rip`, `Convert`, `Record`, `Burn` or `Broadcast`.
jetAudio enables you to rip audio CDs and even get their details about the artist, songs or album from the Internet. It also provides audio and video conversion tools for quick and easy encoding of formats like WAV, FLAC, OGG or WMA as well as AVI, MPEG, WMV, MP4, FLV or MKV. It also brings an audio recorder featuring an equalizer, Low/High-pass filters and even a trimmer.
The Burning component comes in handy when needing to create audio CDs while the `Broadcast` button allows users to listen to online radios. Opening the COWON Media Center triggers a cleaner interface, well-organized and more attractive even though it is quite large. One thing you have to be careful about is the way this interface closes. There are two X buttons in the top right area – the first one closes the current window while the second one terminates the application.
Despite the fact that it comes with theme support, jetAudio lacks a simple and user friendly interface. Although it packs many functions, jetAudio falls short of the natural ease-of-use or intuition. If you look for an alternative to your current multimedia player or even suite and go for jetAudio, it may soon turn into the application you desperately want to replace – or not.

2)VLC Media Player 2.0.1 / 1.1.11
Review for Portable VLC Media Player
The popular VLC media player created as a portable app
Remember the times when you installed a media player and needed to get a bunch of codec drivers in order to make your movies work? Can you still believe there are still some players who need this?
If you don't, then you're probably a lucky user of VLC Media Player.
This multimedia software has been a favorite of users for a very long time, and it now comes in a portable version.
It supports most audio and video formats, including DVDs and VCDs. In addition, it comes with built-in packs for almost every codec that was ever made.
What sets apart VLC from other media players is the fact that it can play audio and video files even if the files are damaged or incomplete (but it plays them with the respective gaps, of course).
Features include subtitle settings (DVD, text files etc), tags, video filters (adjusting image, cropping, rotating or resizing), audio filters, extensions for fixing damaged files, and many others.
You don't have to be a fierce user to understand them, but if you already have some knowledge in the multimedia field, then you'll really appreciate this software.
In addition, you can convert audio and video extensions to WMV, WMA, MP3, MP4, FLAC, and others.
Media players usually have audio issues, meaning that the sound has a very low volume (especially when it comes to certain DVDs). Besides a standard volume tray, VLC also has a "hidden" option when you scroll your mouse up to further increase volume. The sound may not be of the best quality, but at least you won't have any problems understanding dialogue and hearing special effects.
CPU and memory usage is fair.
Portable VLC Media Player might not be specifically built for music listening purposes, but it's probably the best software out there for movies and clips.

2)KMPlayer 3.2.0.19
A Korean media and DVD Front-End Player
A new Windows installation usually requires that third-party software is also installed in order to meet daily demands. Whether you think of an antivirus, a CD / DVD tool, compression utility, file manager, Internet browser, office suite or multimedia players, you normally go with a particular set. When it comes to video players, there a few that really do their job properly. KMPlayer sits at the top, sharing its ranks with other notorious applications such as Windows Media Player, VLC media player,BS.Player or Gom Player.
The installation process of KMPlayer needs your focus as you go from one step to the next one. You are asked to select the type of install by choosing from `Recommended`, `Full Install` and other codec-free installations. This is the first place where you encounter one of the reasons that list KMPlayer as `ad-supported` on Softpedia – the PandoraTV Desktop icon. At the end of the process, you are also prompted to install the KMPMedia Search Bar – you can easily decline this.
The KMPlayer Wizard welcomes you as you run the application for the first time and proves to be of great aid in configuring the video player. You can opt for `Default Setting`, `Keep existing setting` or go with a new `User define Setting`. In case you selected the last of the options, the wizard gradually takes you from selecting an optimized preset for either Performance, General Use and Quality to `Decoder Usage`, `Work Priority`, `Subtitle Configuration`, `Speaker Setup` and `Skin Selection`.
The interface provided by KMPlayer is simply brilliant – it's clean yet stylish. It enables you to quickly access the options of the video player within a few clicks by approaching the intuitive side within. The program virtually supports every media format, both video (AVI, MOV, MPEG, MKV, MP4, FLV, 3GP, TS, WMV, ASF, SWF or RM) and audio (MP3, AAC, WAV, WMA, CDA, FLAC, M4A, MID, OGG, AC3 or DTS). Besides, it also features support for Pictures, Playlists, Subtitles and even CD Image files.
KMPlayer comes in handy for those of you in possession of an analog or digital capture device. The application connects to either WDM TV and BDA HDTV devices and brings the stream to your desktop in no time at all. No matter the source, the playback is flawless and the video processing technologies are put to best use.
Highly customizable, KMPlayer offers many settings to tweak just by right-clicking on its interface - `Screen Controls`, `Pan & Scan`, `3D Subtitle Control`, `Capture` or `Control Box` are just a few of them. For further, deeper configuration, you can always enter the Preferences window and enjoy a great array of options – you may lose track of time by getting in here and end up spending hours setting each and every aspect of the video player.
KMPlayer covers the basics of video playback and smoothly goes beyond this by providing advanced features and customization at your fingertips. Whether you are part of the beginner's guild or a more demanding community, this application is easy-to-use and nifty at the same time. Nevertheless, KMPlayer deserves to be regarded as one the truly well-built media players out there and a clever alternative to any player.
Have you noticed that there is no No.1 here
