Is one of the most popular out there and for good reason. It supports plenty of audio and video codecs like all the other media players out there but what does KMPlayer do to seprate itself from the rest of the pack like,, and? In its latest iteration, KMPlayer introduced 3D features. Not only can you stream 3D content but you can turn your 2D content into 3D. Here’s how: When launching KMPlayer, you will be greeted by a bunch of tiles, one of which touts its 3D capability. Clicking on that will bring you to the “3D Movie Plus” section which has a bunch of different 3D trailers for you to stream. Streaming 3D trailers in HD is a very slow affair, even with our quick connection.

Once everything is buffered, you will be greeted with a 3D image that you can use regular glasses (red and blue). This type of 3D is much less impressive than the technology seen on TVs today but that requires a 3D capable TV and a set of expensive 3D glasses. You can even turn your normal 2D video files into 3D with a click of a button on the bottom left. Videos were cropped and stretched out during testing so this is more of a gimmick at the moment. Users can mess with the 3D settings by choosing the type of 3D to use in the menu.

Potplayer is yet another free software video player coming from Korea, much like the GOM Player or the KMPlayer, in fact Potplayer is very similar to KMPlayer in many aspects including the fact that the player comes with built-in codecs to support all of the most common video and audio codecs out of the box. With VLC you can now watch 3D Movies (Side-by-Side or SBS) Anaglyph on your computer or TV without the need for a 3D Capable TV under MacOS X,.

While it’s cool having 3D, we can’t see ourselves using this feature often. It is a fun gimmick but image quality and color reproduction really suffer when using anaglyph 3D filters. If you don’t want to spend thousands on a new 3D capable monitor or TV, then give KMPlayer’s 3D features a try. Chertezhi link ora yamato.
