Using this free Windows 8 Media Player App

The main function of the app which is the most impressive, is that it provides a single platform for different things.

Now, at the landing page of this app, the main options for which the app could be used for, are available. The options to play audio files, Video files, to view the image files, and the inbuilt browser of the app to search Internet would appear.

Let me get you some idea about the functions that the app provide you with:

Inbuilt browser for multimedia search

This is one of the most important function of the app. In this browser, you have the option to access some of the most popular search sources. For all of these, shortcuts are available, clicking on which that particular source will open up in front of you, in the app itself. You can do all kind of stuff, that is available from all these sources. You can listen to song, watch videos, and do other things in the browser itself. A search box is also available. But in order to search using the browser, don’t use the search box, as it does not work. You have to go to the button to search that particular source. As you get to the source, the search box will appear there. From there, you can use the search option.

My Verdict

Play-Med is quite a good Windows 8 Media player App when it comes to providing a platform for doing different things like image viewing, playing audio and video files, and providing a browser. The app really lacks when it comes to playing audio and video file. I tried for different audio and video formats, and as per my experience with it, it was only able to play MP3 audio files, and for videos only MP4 and WMV files. I would not recommend using it if you have different format supported audio and video files.
