Elmedia Player For Mac 2022 REVIEW — MacSources

Elmedia Player is a powerful, yet easy-to-use media manager for Macs

Not too long ago, I started sifting through my computer archives. I’m in the process of setting up a mass storage device and as I move files over to it, I want to make sure I’m not saving unnecessary items. During this process, I found a lot of video files. In order to review them, I need a more versatile video player than Quicktime. I used to use VLC Media Player, but I have some concerns about it given that there are people who will abuse the player to launch malware into computer systems. I also feel that VLC’s interface is outdated and I would prefer to see something that has a more modern design. Because of this, I started looking at other possible options and that’s how I found Elmedia Player.
