Just Play
Play virtually any media file

Powerful doesn't always mean huge

JustPlay is a tiny app, with an essential set of features, that will play basically any video or audio file. It supports MP4, AVI, MOV, SWF, DAT, MKV, MP3, FLAC, M4V, FLV, Blu-ray as well as other common formats. As small as the player is, it has all you need to play all those files - you won't need to install any additional codecs or plugins. And with the newly-introduced M1 support, it can run natively both on Apple Silicon and on Intel Macs.

JustPlay offers a smooth and pleasant HD playback for all your 4K and 8K movies thanks to its hardware accelerated decoding feature.
