Managing photos with Media Player

Windows 8 provides two tools to help you play back video files stored on your computer: the Windows 8 Video app and Windows Media Player. The Video app provides basic playback features, while Windows Media Player includes ways to create playlists and more. You can even use Media Player to manage photos and copy them to portable devices.

If you have Media Center with your version of Windows 8, you can use Media Center or Media Player to manage and watch recorded TV.
