“Multimedia player for almost any video format”

by Nick Mead about ALLPlayer

ALLPlayer is a powerful media player that as the name suggests, can play just about any format.

Similar to VLC media player, ALLPlayer is ideal for playing stubborn video files that won't play in your usual video player. It supports subtitles and plays just about anything and if it can't play a file, it will try to download the appropriate codec from the ALLPlayer website. If you need subtitles for a film, it will even try and download those as well although this function is very hit and miss. An unusual subtitle feature is an automatic voice recognition system that actually reads the subtitles for those who are visually impaired although again, it's not very accurate.

However, one thing to be aware of is that ALLPlayer is based on DirectX which is notorious for being a backdoor for trojans and other malware. DirectX has been much improved and tightened-up since the bad old days though and this shouldn't be an overriding concern if you're thinking of using ALLPlayer.

There are tons of other features in ALLPlayer including an attractive iTunes style Coverflow browser, support for Dolby, and it even previews incomplete AVI files such as those that are downloading. The interface isn't as polished as VLC media player's version 2 release but this is a relatively minor drawback to a solid media player.

ALLPlayer is an excellent multi-format media player that's packed with features.

Pros
  • Matching subtitles downloader
  • Voice recognition for subtitles
  • Plays almost any format
  • Great alternative to VLC media player
Cons
  • Subtitles matching doesn't always work
  • Subtitle voice recognition poor
  • Interface a bit dated

Developer's description

“ALLPLayer 5.0 - One Player fits ALL ”

ALLPlayer is probably the most popular program for watching movies with matching subtitles. FEATURES: It plays all known media formats, RAR files, and futhermore has an implemented LiveUpdate function to update the latest codecs if there is a problem with opening a movie file. The program also searches for matching subtitles in all languages automatically. Intelligent Subtitles keeps the subtitles on the screen for the period of time needed for you to read them. AVI Doctor helps when you are downloading a torrent file and want to preview the movie. With AVI Doctor you can also fix broken files. With LiveUpdate you will get access to many additional software and functions.

Other features: DVD support. CD support. The option to preview images from webcams, DV or any other video source such as TV tuner. Two monitors or monitor and TV support. Support for Dolby Surround, SPDIF and 3D audio. PlayList - searching for all movies or music in a specified folder or drive and putting them into a playlist. Ability to choose any audio output, including SPDIF, allowing lossless digital transmission of sound to an amplifier. Subtitles support in all known formats (hh:mm:ss, ASS - Advanced SubStation, SSA - SubStation Alpha, SubRip. SubViewer (1 & 2), MicroDVD, MPL2 , SRT, SMI etc.). DivX Muxer - creates a DivX/XviD file with subtitles in it. Ability to display subtitles under the picture.

Unlike most players, ALLPlayer is not merely an overlay for MediaPlayer, and it uses DirectX, which makes it possible to play any movie. The program is also integrated with a speech synthesizer application, allowing you to watch movies with subtitles with a reader (dubbing). Most popular formats such as DivX, XviD, MP3, and AVI, FLV, MP4, 3GP, MKV, M2TS, MPG, MPEG, RMVB, WMV, QuickTime, MOV, FLAC, APE, and many more less known formats can be played thanks to liveupdate codecs downloader.

This is for all users watching movies on their computers a specially for those who need subtitles
