A simple-looking, yet advanced media player.

SPlayer is a media player which supports a multitude of different audio and video formats. It is generally more robust than other programs on the market, freeware or not. Luckily for us, SPlayer is completely free and does not even require installation thus being a portable application.

With SPlayer, enjoying the playback of movies and music is a breeze; you don't even have to have codec packs installed because this player supports most formats. You can also playback media from USB devices.

The program is very easy-to-use. The interface is simple to get around in and includes three different modes: minimalist, compact or standard. The look changes depending on whether you're playing music or video. In video mode, you can also enable subtitles which SPlayer finds automatically online.

For audio channels, SPlayer includes a neat equalizer which enables users to enhance the playback.

Overall, a recommended media player which is small enough to carry around, yet powerful enough to switch from VLC and Winamp for.
