PlayPad

The difference between audio and video players has become less evident in recent years, so that most of us probably don't even think about the fact that we are probably using a media player as we speak.

Created to provide you with a clutter-free and efficient environment for playing both your videos and audio files, PlayPad is a lightweight and efficient media player.

The fact that PlayPad was designed to be as simple and as user-friendly as possible becomes clear once you start the app for the first time. The main window comes with a minimalistic layout and makes it simple for you to add new playlists.

As expected, PlayPad works like any other media player, based on playlists populated with files you provide it with.

You should also know that PlayPad comes with support for the most common video and audio formats available. This said, MKV, FLV, MP4, AVI, SWF, MOV, WMV and VOB, as well as MP3 and FLAC, M4A and OGG files are not a problem for this app.

Another worth mentioning feature is the fact that it comes with self-explanatory DVD and CD players.

In a time when almost all media players offer support for multiple skins and themes, PlayPad sticks to an old-school recipe that is proven to work, as it makes it possible for you to fully customize the interface by changing colors.

You can set the application to automatically get the album artworks, assign custom shortcut keyboard combinations and take advantage of the built-in equalizer to adjust the frequency levels for your music and videos.

As a final note, PlayPad is not what you would call a full featured media player, but it comes with almost everything an average user needs from an app of this sort.

It is just a basic and enjoyable media player that supports most audio and video formats, comes with a fully customizable interface and aims to keep things as simple as possible.
