KALA Video Player

KALA Video Player is an easy software application that lets you play AVI, MPG, MPEG, ASF, and DivX files.

Not too complicated to handle

The tool’s interface is dull and has no additional options to make it more visually appealing. The program itself does not have too many settings and it can be mastered by any type of users, be they professionals or not.
A few of the available features are designed for helping you jump to specific time, access a certain frame, and shuffle the video files. Unfortunately, you can import video files in the playlist using only the file browser because the drag-and-drop method is not supported. You can add single files or whole folders at once.

Main functionality

After videos are imported, they are displayed in a playlist along with their subtitles (if you have added any). From there you are only a few mouse clicks away from watching your movies. The clips can be played in windowed or full screen mode.
This tool allows you to change the font, color, and background color of the subtitle. You can also set it to be transparent and preview the changes.
KALA Video Player supports a list of shortcuts for most of its functions to make it easier to use. You can employ a combination of hotkeys, such as ‘CTRL-S’ for shuffling the files, ‘CTRL-T’ for 'Jump to time,' ‘CTRL-F’ for 'Jump to frame,' and much more.

A few last words

To sum it up, KALA Video Player is a nice and fast application that lets you play various video formats. Unfortunately, it brings almost nothing new to the media player market. There is plenty of room for improvements.
More features, such as additional skins, better functionality, and the ability to search for your subtitles online directly from the program’s interface, but with the same easy-to-use interface, would make it more appealing to its users.
