Play a variety of media files on your PC.

Player for MKV is a powerful and versatile media player app for Windows 10. It lets you watch any type of video, such as movies or TV series, right on your PC. You can also use the player to listen to music. The program's powerful decoding engine ensures that it's compatible with nearly all media formats.

Play All Kinds of Media Files Right on Your Windows 10 PC

Despite its name, Player for MKV isn't limited to just playing videos in MKV format. It supports a wide range of video and audio file formats, including MKV, WM, MOV, WAV, WMV, 3G2, 3GP, 3GP2, AVI, EC3, M2TS, M4A, M4V, MP3, 3GPP, AAC, AC3, ADT, ADTS, ASF, MP4, MP4V and WMA.

This represents nearly all of the world's common media file formats. Therefore, if you downloaded a video or audio file from the Internet, there's a very high chance that this player will be able to open it. This gives it an advantage over the built-in media player that comes with Windows, as it's been known to have trouble playing back videos in some formats.

Sleek and Intuitive User Interface

The overall layout of Player for MKV is very well designed. The program fits in perfectly with Windows 10's Metro theme, which gives you a more seamless transition between working in other programs and watching your favorite movies. The controls are easy to figure out, as they come in the form of large buttons that are quite descriptive. If you have a multimedia keyboard, you can use it to control the playback of your media files, as well as adjust sound levels.

Everything You Need in a Media Player App

Player for MKV has been made with the needs of those who often watch videos on their computer in mind. The program lets you watch videos with subtitles and supports a variety of external subtitle file formats, has an equalizer that lets you change sound and video display settings, allows you to boost the volume level up to 200 percent and supports videos with multiple audio tracks, such as those that come in several languages.

Decent Free Video Player

As far as free video players go, Player for MKV is a very good app. It's compatible with a wide range of media file formats and can play HD video without any problems. However, it does have a slightly "generic" look and feel to it. The app also doesn't offer much more than dozens of competing free players and lacks the advanced functionality offered in other media players like VLC. However, if you're just looking for a media player that works well and has a nice interface, you'll probably be happy with Player for MKV.
