Miro is a free HD video player.

It can play almost any video file and offers over 6,000 free internet TV shows and video podcasts.

Miro has a simple, gorgeous interface designed for fullscreen HD video. Since Miro downloads most videos, you can take your shows with you, even on an airplane. Quite simply, Miro is a better way to watch all the video you care about.

Best of all, Miro is 100% free and open source, developed by a non-profit organization and volunteers around the world.

What's New:

  • New audio podcast section of the Miro Guide
  • Better interface for audio playback
  • Button to download from YouTube when you add as sidebar site – also see: 4 ways to download files (including torrents) from websites inside Miro
  • Smarter handling of bittorrent files, especially videos
  • New Library interface with ‘Video’, ‘Audio’, and ‘Other’ sections
  • New keyboard shortcuts for virtually all functions (great for programming a remote control)
  • Interface polish and refinement
  • Easier hacking: the database layer was rewritten to use a simplified SQLite schema and we’ve created a new developer documentation site: Miro Developer Documentation v2.5 (more deets)
  • Lots of bug fixes and tweaks
