Media players that can play any audio and video formats

Imagine you have a very important file you downloaded but the media players installed on your computers cannot play it. It is quite frustrating to encounter such situation, but you don’t have to worry much because I am going to introduce you to some media players that will play every multimedia format be it audio or video files for you at any point in time.

4. Windows Media Player: Most of us already have Windows media player in our systems because it is the Windows media player for XP and other Windows OS which offers a great way to play audio and video files but it is limited to quite a number of formats. Now I know this one is going to be a surprise to most of you but I am going to show you how you can play almost all known media formats with Windows media Player. First you will need to download and install K-Lite Codec Pack 8.60 (Full)  This codec will do the magic, while you are installing the codec please choose all audio and video formats and after that your Windows media player will start to play all media formats.
