    Cons:
    Sound volume is low. It should be boosted as in VLC or KMP.
    The interface is amateurish.
    The software is laggy and a CPU hog.
    Adding podcast/feeds is not simple enough.

    Pros:
    Cross platform
    All-in-one podcatcher.
    Miro has potential to be a must-have multimedia app.

    Terrible memory usage in 4.0 and 4.0.1 when it's not doing anything.

    A bit of a heads up, during installation you have the option to install a search home page, kind of a weird way of wording it but what it actually is, is the Zugo Toolbar. Miro does tell you how to uninstall this sucker even offer an uninstall program to help but you'll find both methods will fail. Zugo is notorious for doing anything they can to keep from being removed from a computer once installed, for that reason in my eyes it's malware.

    I rate it a one because I don't dare run anything with the Zugo Toolbar no matter if I have a choice to install it or not.

    I rate this a 3 because of the way it's organized.
    Would I use it, no. Not after trying it for an hour.
    Not enough content.

    SBMongoos:

    1. Do you have your latest video drivers from the manufacturer of the chipset (ATi/Nvidia/Intel, etc.) installed?

    2. Have you tried videos from more than once source in order to make sure the publisher didn't just screw up?

    3. Have you tried playing the same type of file (most likely an MP4) using VLC (which is what Miro uses internally)? Did you get video?

    4. Are you playing on primary monitor or a secondary/extended?

    I have K-Lite installed as well (Mega version) and I have no problems.
