Metal Player is a simple and handy multimedia player that lets you watch movies or any kind of videos as well as listen to music, either from your local audio collection or from the streams of online radio stations.
One of the nicest things about this player is its neat, modern, and elegant interface. Though it doesn’t come with many skins or customization options (only four interface themes are provided by default), the interface is a really nice aspect of this media player. It makes the program look really appealing and interesting, while most other multimedia players look rather dull and boring.
Another remarkable advantage of Metal Player is the fact that it supports a lot of multimedia file formats, being capable of playing DVDs (VOB files), video files (MKV, AVI, MP4, 3GP, etc.), and audio files (MP3, WAV, MIDI, etc.). Controlling the playback order of these files with the use of playlists is also possible. Metal Player is in fact a feature-rich and powerful tool that offers many other additional features and functions. For example, it includes a radio playing tool that lets you listen to online radio stations. It also offers a built-in equalizer, an automatic subtitle downloader, and even an “Intelligent Playback” function that sets the order of the tracks in your playlists based on a complex algorithm that can analyze your playback habits and determine what your preferred songs are.
To sum it all up, Metal Player is a powerful and handy multimedia player that earns my recommendation, especially since it’s also free.
