The present invention provides a media player and a media playing method. The media player comprises a storage unit, a touch control unit, a playing control unit, and a two-dimensional bar code processing unit. The media playing method comprises a step of playing a media file according to the control parameter configured in a playing control file, a step of finding the identification information of a media file corresponding to the trigger operation in a media data record and corresponding Internet link information when a trigger operation is detected, a step of encoding the Internet link information as two-dimensional bar code data, and generating a corresponding two-dimensional bar code image, and a step of displaying a media file played by the playing control unit, and displaying the two-dimensional bar code image. According to the method, the two-dimensional bar code encoded with the Internet link information can be dynamically generated in real time in playing the media file, thus media file and two-dimensional bar code image content can be manufactured separately. The binding of the media file content and the two-dimensional bar code image content is not needed.
