Video Player Apps and Alternatives

Because Macs have become accessible on a large scale, users are no longer satisfied using the multimedia tools included within Mac OS X, and some of them prefer to rely on 3rd party apps, especially when having to play videos.

There are numerous movie players that feature their own integrated video codec packs by default, so that users will no longer have to download and install them separately.

There are also users that prefer lightweight apps, that will not need a lot of RAM or disk space in order to run smoothly.

Some video players can be very complex, featuring support for editing and conversion, as well as streaming the video played on the Internet.
