PotPlayer is a video player that will allow you to watch practically any movie you have on your PC, regardless of its format. The app also boasts excellent performance and uses a minimal amount of resources thanks to its DXVA, CUDA and QuickSync optimization. This way, regardless of the PC you have, you'll be able to watch your favorite movies and series smoothly and free from interruptions.

Compatible with a host of formats

The list of formats supported by PotPlayer is extensive. Among the most popular formats you can find are: AVI, MKV, MP4, MOV, WMV, FLV, TRP, MTS, MPEG, H.264, VP9, MP3, AAC, WMA, FLAC, OGG, AC3, DTS and WAV.

Tons of subtitle options

Subtitles are a key component of any modern video player. Most users prefer to use subtitles for convenience, even if they understand the language a movie is in. PotPlayer boasts a huge number of features to manage the subtitles of any movie or series. You can adjust the font type, size, color, style and rendering, among other things, and you can also adjust the timing of subtitles while they play. In short, you can display the subtitles the way you want.

Support for video and 3D glasses

Another feature that makes PotPlayer unique is its compatibility with various video formats and 3D glasses. Very few people use this technology to watch movies at home, but if you have 3D glasses, you can watch movies in 3D thanks to this app. All you have to do is select the 3D Mode option in the Preferences tab.

Customize the interface to your liking

PotPlayer lets you customize its interface. In the Skins tab, you can choose between several different skins that will radically change how the program looks. In addition to this, you can adjust various parameters manually. You can apply a transparency effect to the video controls while a movie is playing, and you can also enable your touchscreen if you have one. In short, you can make the player look the way you want.

One of the best video players for Windows

Download PotPlayer and discover what's undoubtedly one of the best video players out there for Windows. The program not only stands out for its long list of compatible formats but also for its incredible performance and overwhelming number of options. The vast majority of users won't need many of its features, such as switching between audio and video renderers, but if you ever need them, they're there.

Too bad that a simple crossfade function between songs with adjustment of fade out and fade in time is missing, as found in WMP. What a pity! Could it be implemented?

Latest Dec 2022 version doesnt work when trying to speed up certain files. These are AVI files, MJPG codec, running at 5 fps timelapse. I had to go to the previous November 2nd version.
