Zoom Player Premium (formerly WMV Professional) 6.00 RC2  beta

Publisher's Description:

Zoom Player is a robust media and DVD front-end player. It was designed to be simple at first glance while being remarkably dynamic and flexible when used to its full potential. It works in two modes: a Media mode which can play any file supported by DirectShow (any file which plays in MediaPlayer) and a DVD mode which uses pre-installed DirectShow DVD filters to play DVD content. It supersedes media player in all it's functions and provides several important functions that media player lacks. It provides special zooming functions to improve TV-output quality by eliminating overscan.

Fully Functional (uncrippled) trial version with Windows Media DRM playback support.

Zoom Player has the following other editions available: Zoom Player Standard, Zoom Player Professional, Zoom Player WMV Professional, Zoom Player Professional (Beta) and Zoom Player Standard (Beta).

Latest Changes:

• Improved EVR Support
• Improved Vista compatibility
• Support network paths in navigation
• Bug fixes

I'm surprised at some of the low scores and comments. I've been using it for years and I'm really into video. Maybe it's a matter of tweaking it; there's a lot to modify. Basically, I pretty much use FFDSHOW audio and video decoders for most video. I installed my external decoders via the latest CCCP. I still have KMPlayer, WMP11, WMP Classic etc. but Zoom Player was the only one that allowed me to get every last thing just the way I want it. One notable thing is dual audio and subtitles. I typed "english" in Settings to allow English audio even if another language like Japanese is first. On my Control bar I can quickly toggle the Subtitles and audio if need be. Anamorphic Matroska is another thing not all players have. There's too much to mention. I've never had a single stability issue in two years with any version and I've tried all of them. Honestly, very few people need to purchase this, but I bought it a couple years ago and just love it. I'm happy to see that changing version numbers didn't require me to upgrade like some programs I bought in the past. Perfect for my needs! Very configurable and stable.

I used this for about a year before discovering KMPlayer/GOMPlayer. Not bad, basically a replacement for Windows Media Player (DirectShow) with better DVD navigation but no visuals. Nothing that would make me want spend money on this when there are better free alternatives out there.

New review : This program is really worth the money, much better than the free MPC, and really cleverly programmed. Keep it up !

Getting a virus warning from crappy NAV that lists it as having bloodhound.overpacked. Just FYI to the devs. Chose 3 since it's the middle of the orad and I have yet to try it and can't since NAV deleted it.

Yeah, the screenshots look great, better than the actual program actually.
