Potplayer in Windows 8.1

[chiangrai]

Hi,

I have a new notebook with Windows 8.1 wich is also new to me.

I tried to download and install Duam potplayer but couldn't get it working.

I've tried "run programs that ran on previous versions of windows" in the control panel but no luck.

It shows in the "unininstall a program"in the control panel but with no publisher.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong

would be welcome

I can't say I know it, but does it have something that makes it preferable to VLC, which runs without problem on 8.1 (and 10)?

I prefer it as my default program for videos because you can set it so that when you

you double click on a file it opens that file and also puts all the other files in that folder

on a playlist so that if you change your mind about what video you want to watch you

can change with just one click.

I use VLC for trining videos.

I don't know what a potplayer is, but it sounds like fun. +1 for VLC

Assuming you've downloaded the right version (32/64 Bit), right click the installer and try running as Administrator.

Make sure you get it from here:

Thanks Chicog,

I deleted Potplayer and tried your site.

This time I got potplayer and a codex and this time it works.

Bingo

I prefer Potplayer over any other player. If you set it up right, the picture quality and audio is awesome. There is a guide on Guru3d for setting it up.
