iFunia Media Player App Reviews

I like it

I only tried some movies I downloaded before. It’s easy to operate and looks great

Carrie-022 v2.0.1 · 10 years ago

Its very useful because I downloaded a movie but it is an .avi and for some reason quicktime won’t converte it so this was a great and easy way to paly my movies

Firephoenix122 v2.0.1 · 10 years ago

Doesn’t Work! Can’t Play m4v Movies!

Downloaded this app to try. App couldn’t even process M4V full movies. Crashes!

AkemiKat v2.0.1 · 10 years ago

I got this application because it can play WMV3 encoded videos that QuickTime and VLC fail to open. It’s simple and to the point but not without its share of shortcomings. It first confused me as it doesn’t automatically start playing a loaded video. Its handling of srt subtitles is problematic and it doesn’t appear in the Open With context menu for video extensions. But a good secondary player to turn to from time to time.

Narseh v2.0.1 · 10 years ago

Perfect!

Tried a few others, this is the only one that had perfect resolution for avis.

Widdig05 v2.0.1 · 9 years ago

Nope - fail...

failed to play several formats.

dediger007 v2.0.1 · 9 years ago

Ran a film on both VLC and Media Player. While quality of film may have been debatable, VLC handled it without breakup, whereas on Media Player the screen was breaking up and there was extraneous noise in the background.

ovis1 v2.0.1 · 10 years ago

Wonderful!

Works perfectly! No issues @ all! Love this Video player! Thank you!

NicksreviewZ v2.0.1 · 9 years ago

doesn’t even read mp4 file

It could not open mp4 file neither with open file from player nor by drag and drop. Not so user friendly!

Sidcp v2.0.1 · 9 years ago

It is the best and simplest media player I met, I am able to watch all HD and 5K videos, it lets me enjoy on full screen with pretty high display definition. Nice app!

Timothy OO · 10 years ago

When this media player opens my 4K HD movies, wow, what comes into my eye is such a clear and perfect display, lets me enjoy the best movie, and easily control the playing.

angel CCat · 10 years ago

Works Great

I needed a sofware to help me play mkv videos that i have, and this player filled it just perfect.

CoachAhmed · 10 years ago

This is a basic player that doesn’t seem to do much of anything that isn’t built into OSX. It does however frequently lose sync between audio and video and to fails to jump backward at different times. I also notice that this developer fragments their offerings putting individual features in different products rather than all together in one products or offered as an optional add-in. So if you want to use all of the varied features they offer for video files and you get a page of 10 or more results making identification of what version or versions you actually need difficult at best. With all of the fragmentation of their video products (as some other developers do as well) I tend to pass because the developer will ultimately keep charging a $5 or $10 here and $2 or $3 there, before you know it you’ve invested $40-$50 and still don’t have a decent result. I opt for open source solutions which I will use and then donate $ to if they have put out a product which performs as the developer states or implies. It gives the developer an incentive to keep improving their product and financially to continue or expand the project. Good open source projects such as vlc, handbrake, openoffice, & carbon copy cloner were more deserving of financial support than this dev’s attempt at a money grab.

I was very skeptical at first to download this app because of all the negative reviews I read about it. But I thought “What the heck why not I’ll give it a try.” Seeing this was one of the last options I had to try and play my .avi files (these are the only files I’ve tried this app with so I dont know if it works with other files that quicktime player does not support but you can sure give it a try). But when I downloaded it it worked very well. All you have to do is just open the app when it is done downloading and then drag your .avi files into where it says “Drop file here” and it will start to play instantly. So in the end I do recommend this app to play .avi files. I hope all of you have a wonderful day :)

ugh

Voojang · 10 years ago

doesnt save playback spot

The description clearly states that it saves the playback spot where you left off. It does not work.

Antkn33 · 10 years ago

Highly suggest Video Player

opens up really fast, better than VLC which i used to use. Still need to try other funcitons on the application

B_Bustamante · 5 years ago

Happy with playing MKV file!

No need to convert .MKV anymore! It opened it easily and the picture and sound clarity are great! No issues with controlling volume,pause, etc.

Leona|Coleman · 5 years ago

Works!

Have some .avi files which Quicktime can't open, this app play it smoothly and crystal clear.

BlancoJo · 5 years ago

What I Wanted!

The only player that works with my OGG audio files. Clear and quick to load.

Gary.Rary · 5 years ago

Good Player

Have some issues playing a video for a class with VLC. This plays it well and the quality of the video and sound was better than what I expected.

Ray_Nist · 5 years ago

Incomplete

When a movie player doesn't have "Speed Control" and they advertise all of what they have and what their product can do and doesn't have this function, I question their ability to understand what they're even doing.

HighNoonUSA · 7 years ago

It's free and does an awesome job

It is completely free and can smoothly play whatever videos I drag into it, including the 4K ones. I really couldn’t ask for more. That said, it would be better if it could resume playback where I left off.

john4JC2 · 7 years ago

work good on my imac

This program works really perfect on my imac, fluent & fast loading, good video quality retained and thanks for making it 100% free.

Bookerse · 7 years ago

Neat design and possess a set of features

Seems to work with most formats, MP4, FLV, 3GP, MPG, 4K, WMV I've tested. It’s also includes a built-in subtitle downloading option, and audio & video tweaking controls. Very easy to operate for novices. But it would enhance my experience if the playlist were supported as well.

daniebbay · 7 years ago

no easy way to delete this. Want my money back- been here for years and does nothing cannot even fin

no way to get rid of it

Fireeater48835 · 7 years ago

What I needed to cast movies

Excellent media player, which does support hardware accelerated video decoding and enable to add external SRT subtitles. Recently, I am considering to buy its conversion function, just not sure how good will be after converting the movies. So, I would be grateful if there was a chance for free conversion. LOL.

Rayford00 · 7 years ago

Swiss army knife of video player

It plays every format I have . Also it is pretty fast and smooth even when I play 4k videos. The best: It's free!

D. Ortiz78 · 7 years ago

Fast loading

Free and UI friendly. Even when I drag and drop a large video file, it responds very fast to play.

sakurakiG · 7 years ago

I can’t believe it. It’s free and useful!!!

How great the app is! Uncluttered design, practical functions and does exactly what I needed a media player to do! It plays all my HD videos successfully without any fuss. And to my surprise, it's absolutely free. Do you guys have developed other wonderful apps like this one? ☺

Harold Woo · 8 years ago

It is the best choice for the mac users who want smooth playback of the videos and audios that might look choppy on other video players. It can help save my computer resources and supports different videos formats. The most important thing is that it is one of the greatest alternatives of 4K player. Get ready to experience high quality video playback with iFunia. Meanwhile,it support losd subtitles automatically.

elitezzz · 8 years ago

a great media playback app

This media player plays almost any kind of format. It’s great to use with easy controls for pause, forward, backward, screenshot, etc.

Minnie.iefi · 8 years ago

One click to capture video moments I love, it’s cool!

After downloaded several video players, I found this app to be the one I need. It allows me to watch videos in almost any formats. And I really like the interface, clean and easy to use. With this great media player, I can capture any moments of the video I love. Most of all, it is free of charge.

RobertDavid1010 · 8 years ago

plays almost all video formats for me

It’s a good video player, allows me to play almost all video formats, and the playing control also great. Recommend it!

Ellartia · 8 years ago

Great player

All of my old videos, any kinds of formats can be played well. Thanks.

Great player, lousy & expensive converter (in-app $6.99)

Granted it’s a great player. The converter is another story. It is relatively expensive, so you think you will get something good. Well, it only converts one solitary audio or video at a time. So what do you do if you have an 8000-song Windows Media Library you need to convert to Apple? One by one that would take a century, or at least a decade. Worse, the converter insists on putting the resulting output into ../User/Library instead of ../User/Music and it does not allow you to establish a default target for the output. So you have to edit the output location individually for each song, or let them be and move them after you’re done converting. However, there is a solution. Another or their apps, the iFunia Audio Coverter, for $9.99, does permit batch mode conversion. But don’t fall for this money trap. Get the free player, skip the seven dollar in-app converter, and buy the Audio Converter for ten bucks. Better yet, do it now, on the holiday special price of $2.99. Final bit of advice - skip the in-app converter that only does one song at a time.

.smi subtitle doestn’t support

This app doesn’t support .smi subtitle.

Region334 · 8 years ago

Great! Automatically detect my subtitles.

Great FREE Video Player, plays my videos smoothly, and automatically detect and load my local subtitles!

Robert KY · 8 years ago

Horrible — must click through ad EVERY TIME to use

Skip this one — it forces you to click through an ad for the pro version every time you open the app, rendering it useless.

red.planet · 8 years ago

Play almost all video formats

Wow, I did surprised this video player, as it plays almost all video formats smoothly. And many other features like make screenshot of the movie I like, and convenient playback possibilities. All this are totally free, amazing!

Yola G.K · 8 years ago

can play my olde animes and some old video format well

It can play my old animes and some old formats like dsd files well, that other player can’t play. But still have little bugs need to fix, hope can do better.

Abeeskya · 8 years ago

Useless.

Useless. Would not work.

The Avenging Dodger · 8 years ago

It worked!

I have some old anime music videos that I couldn’t play using Quicktime because they are in WMV format. When I tried to change them to MP4, tehy still wouldn’t play. I downloaded this to watch them and it worked! I haven’t tried they on any other videos or formats so I can’t speak to those but I’m happy to play these again, I haven’t seen them in forever.

GetSomeYost · 9 years ago

Did not open .spx audio file

I downloaded this player solely to open a .spx audio file. It did not work.

Darling343 · 9 years ago

it’s great and amazing

Whatever another application don’t open, media player, does open it.. I love it thank you for creating it.

Roulay · 9 years ago

No webm? No flv? So what makes this better?

No webm? No flv? So what makes this better than other media players that do everything this one does and support more formats?

100 Watt Walrus · 9 years ago

Audio/Video Not synced

I read the reviews and thought since it was a free app, I would give it a shot. That being said, same problem other people had was that the audio and video were not synced at all. Rules out using this one again!

Robbquinnphoto · 9 years ago

It worked fine!

I was hesitant due to all the negative reviews, however it worked perfectly for my purposes of playing a 10 min video clip from my speech class.. Albeit my speech sucked, the video player was synced and played without a hitch. Pretty awesome for a FREE app!

Labradoriteleigh · 9 years ago

Complete crap

Ok to be fair I can’t say it’s complete crap because I used it for approximately 5 secs. But within that time I was able to see what other reviewers had already attested to and that was that the audio and video immediately became out of sync. My intention was to use it for school related videos so this was disappointing. Usually people are hypercritical of apps and I’m not. But this was crap.

Medlifejunkie · 9 years ago

Works great no major issues so far

I’ve only used this with AVI, MKV, and MP4 files, but they all play fine. When i’m in full screen the screen will start to dim becuase i’m not using my trackpad, or keyboard. Which is kind of annoying, but if plug my computer in it stays lit. Works good though for free though, I can’t really complain.

Bigwass42 · 9 years ago

Antkn33 · 10 years ago

Video Converter doesn’t work...

I added the converter to the app, it doesn’t work, it’s not converting anything, just a 3 second audio file is created from a 1h30min video WMV into a MOV… and they charge for the it… I want my money back!!

Sirioj · 10 years ago

No retina support

It looks like a scam without retina support

AVI file playback totally screw up

Not sure about other format but AVI file playback totally bad.

dragonfly-311 · 10 years ago

Horrific

Does a horrible job playing AVI movies,

Reztnulb · 10 years ago

nice and tidy, but...

there’s no playlist capability and apparently no way to queue multiple files. might be more accurately marketed as a “movie watcher”.

rserl1ng · 10 years ago
