MPlayer has long been familiar to Linux users as one of the best media players, it's time for Windows users to get to know it - install rulesPlayer - the free GUI for Mplayer . How to cook : 1. During installation, we feed the installer archives with mplayer'om and codecs 2. The codecs.conf file is uploaded to the rulesPlayer / mplayer / mplayer folder
... and that's it - you have a player that does not depend on the codecs installed on the system, it can play everything and everyone (including damaged / under-downloaded files). It has a nice interface, you can independently update both the codecs and MPlayer itself, regardless of the GUI, you can also download MPlayer with optimization for your processor (see MPlayer site).
