Dragon Multimedia Player For Linux
There are many Multimedia applications available for various linux distro each one of them provide very exciting and unique features. But what sets VLC( which is the most used media player) apart from the rest is that it has built in codec support which is why most people use it, even though its feature set is not as comprehensive as the other media players. To try and compete with VLC media player dragon player was created. It like VLC is a simple media player that comes with support for many different codecs.
When you first launch dragon player its the simplicity that hits most people
Dragon player has large and easy to understand media control buttons. One thing which Dragon player has is an video interface where dragon player overlays playback controls on ur full screen video
An intresting Feature of Dragon Player is that it remembers your last played media files and then the next time you start Dragon Player it will prompt you to select your previosuly played media files.
One other thing about Dragon Player is that it can resize the video file bein played to fit your screen automatically rather then you havin to set the aspect ratio manually. To enable this click on Settings, then click on Aspect Ratio and select Window Size
Hope you enjoy using dragon player.

That’s an advertisment, isn’t it? What backend does it use? Have you heard about mplayer? Who cares about “large” buttons? Do you know how to make a proper screenshot? Like capturing what’s in the player, not just blue video overlay crap? Oh, sheesh…
@deadcabbit –
first off this isnt an advertisement all applications reviewed are reviewed unbiasedly
and yes you are correct in that screenshot of the blue video overlay that was a mistake on my part because i was having hardware issues which i still am having
and as far as the backend i didnot think it was neccesary to include info about it because many of our readers are new to linux and therefore such info is unnessary
