Talking about or recommending a video player is not as easy as one might expect. This is mainly because most players don't bring anything new to the table, apart from an extensive format support or a quality playback, which should be standard nowadays. You do, however, have something to talk about when it comes to Awesome Video Player. Its main selling point is the fact that it is capable of playing multiple videos simultaneously, on the same user interface.

Awesome Video Player comes in free and paid editions, for all popular Windows systems and Mac and iOS versions are well on their way. Downloading and installing the player doesn't take more than a minute, even on older machines. Also, there is no need to prepare any special codecs or drivers and you don't have to sacrifice too many resources.

The user interface actually displays something useful when you launch the application. You can find a complete list of the player's hotkeys, so you will know from the very start what you need to press to pause a video or perform other actions. Additionally, you can find an option for loading a demo, so you can see how the software plays multiple videos at the same time. Of course, you can also load your own videos right away, by simply dragging and dropping them on the same interface.

If multiple videos are loaded, the application will split its interface into equal tiles, in which you videos will start playing automatically. Each video comes with its own volume and playback controls, so they can be played, paused or muted separately. Also, if you want to focus on a particular video, you can enlarge it on the entire interface with a single click. The hotkeys can make things quite comfortable here. For example, the number keys on your keyboard can be used to pause and resume each video separately.

The software is capable of playing up to 16 videos at a time. The best part is that you won't notice any significant performance hits while playing multiple videos simultaneously. Add the fact that controlling the videos doesn't present any challenges and you have a quite decent and unique player on your hands.

Awesome Video Player is overall comfortable and quite easy to use. If, for whatever reason, you wish to look at several videos side by side, this player will definitely meet your demands.

Pros

You can play up to 16 videos simultaneously. The software lets you pause and resume videos with the number keys. You won't notice a significant impact on your computer's performance.

Cons

The free version is limited to 4 videos.
