This is the Software Publisher's description.

Free and open source media player which plays almost all multimedia formats without the need for installing any separate codecs. Connects to an online subtitle database, finds subtitles that are a perfect fit to the played media. Plays RAR-archives without first extracting the media. Beautiful music visualizations.

Kantaris has a cool and modern default skin which makes the player stand out but we’re also working on a new feature that is going to make it very easy to design new skins. The feature is completely unique and is going to let users make skins using only Photoshop. No need to write anything at all.

Kantaris can automatically find subtitles for you online that are a perfectly synced to the video file playing. Correct subtitles character encoding will always be identified so that all characters always look the way they should, this is a unique feature for Kantaris Media Player.
