A personal license costs $19.95 on the official website, and it’s a one-time purchase – no subscriptions required. Some of the aforementioned features will require you to activate the Pro version of Elmedia Player. And you can even search for subtitles online with a built-in function. External audio and subtitles can be added and synchronized with the video track. You can find more in the Preferences – from startup options to compatibility settings, which will come in handy when streaming. The functionality includes audio equalization, video tuning, subtitle adjustments, playback speed, bookmarks, playlist saving, and even one-click streaming over AirPlay 2 and DLNA. And there are hardly any formats out there that Elmedia Player won’t open. It’s very likely that this is the best video player for Mac. Elmedia includes the most useful features you’ll find in a video player for macOS devices.
