Media Player Classic only uses about 1-2% CPU, and 50MB of RAM when playing back a 1080P MP4 file on my computer according to Windows 8.1 task manager. Opening and playing 1080P HD MP4 video files takes only a few seconds on my computer with an Intel Core2Dou 1.86GHz CPU, 1GB of RAM, Nvidia GT 620 1GB video card, and Windows 8.1. It only takes a few seconds to open the media player after clicking on the desktop or startmenu shortcut. I like that the user interface is like the Classic media player in Windows 98.There are no animations, and un-needed features which can slow down the media player.Minimizing, maximizing, restoring, and re-sizing the window in Media Player Classic is pretty fast, and there is no slow down. The basic media player buttons and features like play, pause, stop, seek bar, open, next, back, fast forward, rewind, volume, settings, etc can all be easily found on Media Player Classic. The user interface is very easy to use on Media Player Classic. It is very rare that it can’t play a video or audio file in my experience. It can basically play all the media files which are on my computer. It can play a lot of different video like mp4, avi, wmv, and mkv and audio like MP3, wav, and ogg file formats. It can also be used to play audio files as well. I have been using it for many years to play video files in Windows. Media Player Classic Home Cinema is one of the fastest and most lightweight free media player programs for Windows computers.
