    Forgot the mention that in the classic version you have to go into options and set the player to open a new window for each media file selected.

    Here is a better site to get the classic player.  This one has 32 and 64 bit versions and is still being supported.

    FWIW...you can run multiple instances of the

    following version of media player:

    Media Player Classic

    (just unzip it and run it...no installation required)
