Now using windows media player over the years (and most other 3rd party media players) it is normal to have to download codecs or whole bloated codec packs to get certain videos to run.

Using SMPlayer I could run movies/TV episodes full screen without pauses or speech going out of sync even using the TV out running full screen on a TV! It just goes to show this software is built well for speed and very efficient use of system resources!A very big feature of this media player is the way it installs and uses codecs. With a clean install of windows and the latest drivers it would pause or go out of sync on movies/TV episodes using Windows Media Player or Using VLC Media Player.

You can then use the audio slider on the bottom right of SMPlayer to adjust the sound volume.Okay so I first started using this software a couple of years ago when all I had to travel with was an very old Dell Laptop running Windows XP and it was a Pentium III 450Mhz with an ATI Graphics chip. For example 100 is 100% and 200 is 200% or x2 amplification. Go to Options, Preferences, Audio tab, then in Max Amplification adjust the setting higher.

This is a very simple setting t o adjust. By Anonymous reviewed on November 21, 2010įastest and safest and most full featured media player.įirstly to comments above about the sound being too low.
