Kantaris Media Player Lite aims to be an all-in-one media player that provides a great audio and video experience. Video playback is based on Videolan Client (VLC) code which results in that it plays everything without the need of installing any codecs. This is a modified version of the very popular Kantaris Media Player minus OpenCandy Adware. Both programs are very similar, with identical features and appearance. What makes Kantaris Media Player Lite better is that it contains no spyware, adware or advertising. Kantaris Media Player Lite uses code of VLC licensed under the GPLv2

Kantaris Media Player Lite features an attractive skin, some nice audio visualizations, and integration with Last.fm and Apple movies trailers. Kantaris can play almost anything you can throw at it: AVI, MPEG, MGEG-AVC, WMV, MOV, MKV, quicktime, matroska, divx, xvid, H264, MP3, WMA, OGG files and more.
