#3. VLC Player ★★★★☆
Platform: Windows, Mac, Linux
License: Free
VLC is one of the most popular best free media players, offering 4K playback initially at
version 2.1 which was released in 2013. Just like the above mentioned 4K video player, it
stays far away from spyware, ads and doesn't track users. It allows you to input 4K videos
encoded by virtually all codecs for playing. Despite that some VLC users said that 4K video is
choppy or lagging, it is still a choice.
#4. DivX Player ★★★★
Platform: Windows & Mac
License: Paid
DivX Player is another HD video player, supporting high-quality video playback up to 4K. It is
optimized for playing videos in MKV, HEVC (H.265), AVI, MP4, DIVX and more. While playing
4K videos via DivX, you can fast forward or rewind to your wanted time point quickly, select
chapter, create playlist based on your own needs, and switch seamlessly among soundtracks
to hear other languages. And Resume Play enables you to jump right back into the scene
you left off quickly.
