Like I've stated before, this has the best video image quality, followed by MPC HC. Codecs download locally so it doesn't conflict with your system in anyway like codec packs do. The only thing I do notice is that I can't play RMVB files even with the Real codec. I also had some issues with the last release not saving subtitle settings

Skin is base 1 skin from older versions. The default skin that is installed is the standard representation of a player. Very buggy under Windows 7. Switching from video to radio causes crash. Codecs manager did work and installed them correctly. I gave up on B*** Sh** Player and switched to the new Kmplayer, Screamer, and Foobar. There seems to be a huge trend for all in one software applications failing miserably. So sad.

unusable for me so at this point I am using windows media player classic (with no codec or player issues at all)

I kept 3 star rating as it does still work on XP, I hope it gets fixed for W7x64 soon though

@Dotnetnightmare... how can you tell what version that pic is? it is just a skin? and one that it is still included.

dotnetnightmare reviewed v2.43.1008 on Sep 22, 2009

The picture is not of 2.43! This player is very light weight, full featured, and skinnable. Skins are as simple as click and they are installed. All needed codecs are available via download and user is presented with current, missing, and upgradable codecs and asks the user before acting! Adware? What idiot came up with that? Everything FREE nowadays offers to install something. OFFERS!!! You the idiot that clicked YES without reading are really the root of inappropriate and inaccurate reviews. This is the only player I have found to incorporate t.v. tuner and streaming radio. Video quality is better than KMPlayer and on par with Mplayer. Try this player out and I think you will be pleased.

Morningdove reviewed v2.40.997 on Apr 17, 2009

In another review I wrote that foobar2000 has the best audio quality of any player in my collection. BSPlayer is at the other end of the spectrum. It's not really bad, it just doesn't quite measure up. The bass is weak and gets thumpy when the lower frequencies equalization is increased. Mid range is a little flat and lacks the presence of other players.

On the other hand, video quality is very good and the TV image is sharp and easy to set up. It surpasses ChrisTV and lacks only direct channel access. Full screen sharpnes at 1600x1200 is superior to the KM Player and on my system the audio is better synchronized. The "Pan & Scan" setting will perfectly fit the image within the frame or screen without annoying black edges. This is by far the best TV player I have tested, but I do miss direct channel access.

Seventy seven pages of skin listings are available so one should never get bored looking at the same UI, although I personally use the default skin.

I have been using BS player 1.36 forever, I think that was the last version before they started added adware and it has worked great. but out of curiosity, I installed this on a different box to test out the adware and you can unselect all the adware options and get just BS player.
so far so good!

BSPlayer and Deamontools both installing WhenUSave adware a.k.a ClockSync
From BSPlayer Pro 2.30 build(?) it didn't have this Adware, but I do not trust these companies and it seems looks like BSPlayer Pro is doiing a fine job and is good & clever programmed, but when you want to delete it leaves behind a lot, I say a lot of registry keys and given anoying problems and they apear everytime in registry cleaners, now what about that?!? Anyone has a Removal tool for BSP?No? I didn't thought so..
Rate it 3 stars cause it has potential and is good programmed, but the uninstaller and the adware scr*ws it up!

SueAmma reviewed v2.35.985 on Feb 21, 2009

@Blaxima: You are absolutely correct. I do not test adware but I do comment about it. When a program is clearly listed as adware (above), that's where it ends. Someone needs to take responsibility for posting proper information on this site, most likely whoever did the posting.

If the author cannot make up his mind whether it should be adware or shareware, I am still not interested. What if a future version becomes adware again, or worse? There are just too many other good media players out there.

UPDATE COMMENT: Although this version doesn't contain adware, the crippled freeware download does offer by default, three "goodies" you probably won't want to accidentally install.

Second Shadow

Second Shadow reviewed v2.35.985 on Feb 20, 2009

Just for the record, it's not Adware any more, but Shareware (again). However, the developer changed the licensing so that the license you get is good for 12 months (including any and all upgrades in between). Afterwards, if you want to keep upgrading, you have to renew your license. Not sure it's the best licensing scheme for this kind of program, but at least the developer moved away from adware. Deserves some credit for that.

SueAmma reviewed v2.34.980 on Jan 19, 2009

The GUI is ugly AND it contains spyware. At least it's name is appropriate.

Blaxima

Blaxima reviewed v2.34.980 on Dec 19, 2008

This is now a must have. It will find the codecs that are missing on your system and install them locally (inside the install folder) and with the ability to make the ini file go there aswell it makes it portable.

The start up use to be slow but not anymore. It loads files really fast and like I said before this player has in my side by side tests proven to me to have the best image quality. I've also never run into problems with subtitle files like I did with other players

This player reminds me very much of Opera in how it is bashed by people who like their software and haven't bothered to even try this one out. If they did they would see how above all this has superior video image quality and me thinks that is pretty damn important when looking for a video player.

EDIT. The picture here (as always) is a very old skin and like most software there are others so just change it if sucks but more importantly THIS CONTAINS NO SPYWARE. SueAmma obviously hasn't even installed this and tried it out.

This one is the best I know with audio stream switcher, subtitle editor with frame rate transformer, multi video enhancing paramters. And I like it clean and not caged to one or other codec. I prefer to choose by myself the codec to install.
Gomplayer is ages behind BSplayer.

Blaxima reviewed v2.31.973 on Sep 25, 2008

I rate it the same as I did a couple of posts down but I just thought I would correct "radiomaffia" because this does play MP4 and Mov files with the right codec pack and seeing that it doesn't have built in codecs the fact that it won't play them for you is because you simply didn't install the codecs. It won't play nsv or flv files though

Bsplayer is the best player out there for windows end of discussion. Very low memory consumption, great skinnable interface, best hotkeying of any media player and fully customizable, bookmarking, screen capturing, great subtitle integration. This is the best thing for watching videos out there. Its not bad for music either, but playing back video is where bsplayer exceeds all other apps.

radiomaffia

radiomaffia reviewed v2.30.968 on Aug 11, 2008

Plus:-
Remembers almost every position&setting
Many things can be changed&added
Skinsupport and there a lot to choose from
Briljant picture quality
Unbelieveble low CPU (23% on 2GB memory)
Does not crash, freez and works very stable, good programming!!

Minus:-
Does not have built-in codecs, a extern codecpack is necessery, does not support MP4, MOV, FLV
There is NO timeline to go forwards and backwards in a videofile (A missed change!!)
Starts a little slow comparing to other players, more then 2 seconds it takes, but then works fine

Note.On their site it says that you can download everytime a codec when necessery but i do not want a new codec installation everytime on my pc, I rather like to see it has a built-in codecpack and simply opening every videofile like Gomplayer&Alshow does, thats why I do not rated it a 5 star

thanks saadsaleem

This used to be my player of choice but I made many moves away from it because of the adware crap but in testing this again I have noticed that while it loads slower than others it has the best picture quality when compared against VLC, MPC Home Cinema, KMPlayer and Gom. It plays pretty much everything except nsv but only KMPlayer and winamp can play those. Even still, picture quality is very important imo so this gets a top rating again.

Loses a half point from me though because there is no portable version

They rested on their laurels and decided to start bundling adware rather than put any actual work into significantly improving their player. Now the interface and features are just kind of sad, even if it still performs relatively well.

Use Zoom Player or Media Player Classic if you're looking for a good DirectShow-compatible player for free. There's really no reason whatsoever to recommend BSplayer over the alternatives anymore.

I used BS Player 3 months ago. Installed a video converter for my digital player which has nothing to do with BS but it could no longer start (always got an exception error poping up). I have uninstalled / re-installed countless time (BS, and any codecs imaginable). Then I follow the advice of some users in this forum to try GOM Player. GOM works right away. Not only GOM is better in stability and ease of use, GOM has a beautiful interface which contrasts with the catastrophic skins of BS. Not to mention the spyware that BS carries.

I've been using the old bloatware free version of BSplayer (1.0 something) and kept using it because of the ease of use and the ability to display subtitles.
But since I had some video quality problems with this old player, I tried other, free, alternatives. I must recommend KMplayer and GOMplayer, mainly because it does the same as BSplayer, without the adware. So just 3 pointer for giving me much pleasure by watching video's in the past.

BSPlayer turned to BS and I'm done with it. I guess greed got the best of them. The When U save, "BSware" is killing my machine. The solution was to remove BSplayer and the added Bulls***-ware it came with. I used to love it and suggested it to all my friends. Now I will only suggest it to my enemies. Ahh ha ha ha.

While the whole idea of adware personally makes me gag, I also DO understand that hosting bandwidth for a website does cost $, and deveoloping an application takes up a persons time. It's nice that we can all sit back & condemn someone trying to keep improving a useful application that costs time & money to do so & still offer it for free. I'm sure if he started only offering a shareware version, all of ya'll would fall silent....

Maybe he thought: "Hey, I just came up with an idea that will allow me to keep BS Player free, AND STILL make a lot of money out of it. Boy, am I brilliant or what?"
Yeah, brilliant my *ss

an excellent movie player. i use both mpc and bsplayer. i have used zoom as well. i have issues with zoom, it does play all the movie files well enough and even allows you to pick filters manually for pretty much everything inc dvd playback. the interface in however awkward and clunky, regardless of skin. bsplayer however has nice skins available. quite a few are rubbish, inc. the default! i use sasakama, it is small and isn't obtrusive. bsplayer doesn't always take to some codecs though. it lost a star for this! it doesn't like real alternative for instance, it has taken to it eventually, but sometimes it just won't accept it. there isn't much point complaining about the sound and vision of this player as it uses whatever codecs are installed. i have direct show ogm, ffdshow, windows media lite, real and quick alternatives. using this it is quick and reliable. shame it doesn't play dvds as dvds though, but then it would cross into either bloat-land or be poor at it like mpc.

A great program that was my number one choice until I began to use Zoomplayer. I suggest that the main codecs should be ffdshow and ac3filter.

As a free program it is definitely worth 5 stars if you use the skin MC-1. There are two interfaces to be concerned with, the main one and the full-screen interface. I have tried every skin and this is the only one that I really like.

I especially like the option of the borderless play windows as I like to watch video in a small window while doing other tasks.

(side note: it is inexcusable to give a product a low score based on the number of releases of the product, and BSPlayer has NOT had too many releases if you compare it to most other products)

I'm sorry to have to agree with BootBlock, but either you want to distribute your product and don't mess around, or you don't really want people to get it and you can keep it. The download process as it stands makes me believe BSPlayer now belongs to the former category.
BSPlayer is still an excellent "free" alternative (I write "free" because of the annoying process to actually get your free download), especially for BivX, and I've been using it over others solely for this reason. Since I see more cons than pros in BivX now, I'll stick to Media Player Classic.

I also used to rate this 5 stars. But messing with something as simple as downloading a program can really turn people off. Right, so I need to enter my email address and then await download instructions? Wha..? Sorry, seems I'm going to be sticking with Media Player Classic (although it does tend to do a weird green/yellow smearing effect with some XVid files on my system). Don't make me jump through hoops and I'll probably leave my lazy daze and use it as a supplementary player (eg. for that XVid issue above).

Some time ago, I rated this program 5 stars, and indeed it's very good, and I guess it still is.
BUT, now it gets 3 stars, because firstly, as the user below mentionned, I do not like installers either, and I can't find the zipped version that used to be offered. Secondly, they require you to enter your email to which download instructions will be sent. Sure, they promise not to send spams, but curiously, lots of people promised the same thing, yet I get loada them. I don't know who's honest and who's not, but I don't take chances anymore. Either you genuinely want people to benefit freely from your software, and do so without condition, or you don't want them to simply get it for nothing. BSPlayer fails to join the first category nowadays, and that's very unfortunate. Thus, I'll stick to Media Player Classic, as well as PowerDVD that I got for free in a retail bundle (albeit I agree that it doesn't compete in the same league, and PowerDVD is by no mean the reason why I rate BSPlayer a 3 stars).

I for one, think it sucked when I first used it but found an excellent skin for it, the MacOSX skin, which actually made it very usable and easy to navigate. I highly suggest this skin for this programs' first use, otherwise you may hate this program. -- This program plays everything I throw at it and I've been using it for over a year now. It's small, lightweight, takes very little resources, and works on my dual monitor setup. -- The only complaint is the newest release RC1.806 has a stupid message that pops up and says "Free for non-commercial use".

This player is great !!!
And It's one of the first time i see a application like that taken the multimonitor in account ! GREAT !
I also like windows media player classic, but this one has a better quality in the 16bits video modes. Really great player ! :)

The best player available because your engine is fast even in slow systems.
A must have for videos fans.

Shame... why am I being forced to enter my private data before I can download this freeware program? I'd like to try it, but now I'm forced to enter fake-data if I don't want to receive _another_ newsletter (and other stuff?). If I'd like to subscribe to an announce-list I'll do that, but don't force me!

Hell what can I say; the best gets better. This is my fav player and the only one worth using for divx. Check out my comments at the bottom of this page.

The best user friendly player for video.
Play better divix files on my comp (Celeron 466) than other players. Beside it has subtitles support and is fully customizable.
In this version fix fullscreen bug. Thanks
And add mouse gestures. I've mouse wheel up/down (wolume up/down) and mid button to switch full screen. It's juts perfect.
One thing could be improwed... more skins witch support double mode when play on fullscreen (mouse down shows mini player). Maby contest to the best skin ?

Didn't crash on my win2k using a voodoo 3 card, but lamentably didnt play some avi and mpg files...i think its because the new WMP9 codecs. There must be a way to fix this problem downloading the correct codecs. Anyway the program has a good interface and seemed very stable playing other formats like mp3s and wma.

It is questionable what the BS in BSplayer stands for, since using the program usually results in computer slowdown before eventually it crashes. I'm guessing its an aptly named player, BS, because it is BS (bulls...t!).

Great program... Better than 5.0 (piece of sh*t)... Windows Messenger 4.7 is a great to have on the side if you're really not into all the funky new features of MSN Messenger 6.0 - but MSNM6 is so new and "cool" that it's become my IM of choice now...

Best player for me.. Latest stable version has problem sometimes going into options, but not this.

Very light, and have everything I need - stay on top, subtitles, playlist..

If in doubt - try it out, chances, that you wouldn't regret this, are quite high.

My favorite video player! It has the nicest appearance, with very easy skining, eats few ressources, handles all common video (avi, mpg, asf, ogm, wmv, divx, asx, m2v, dat) and audio formats (mp3, wav), is translated in 30 languages. It reads subtitles (sub, txt, srt, stf) with smoothing, can delay them if they aren't synchronized, has a playlist, screen capture, a lot of customizable hotkeys, ...

This player rox! Works smooth on my OS (win2k), uses way less memory than other viewers and comes packed with tons of features wmp hasn't even heard of: custom pan scan, easy subtitle management, great ac3-support, many ways to navigate through a movie,...

Most important of all this baby plays all my divx and xvid movies without any problem on my ancient computer! This programme is a must-have and a dream app compared to wmp.

system spec: compac amd athelon 700mHz, 20g hd, 128 meg ram, Windows Me OS. It is entirely possible, this program works fine for others. However, it crashed my system. The uninstall was not correctly registered in Control Panels add/remove programs. The uninstall in the program folder worked ok. I tried installing it twice. Major crash twice.
I also had to do a system restore, as other programs froze up afterwards. Fair warning folks. Download and install at your own risk! ( Beta's are a risk. However, I would think more pre-testing should be made, before releasing it to the general public, even as a beta. )

Excellent Program, but it has just one little disadvantage.
If this could be fixed, it would be perfect.

I think most of my friends love the way MEDIA PLAYER controls are atached to the MOVIE WINDOW.
BSPLAYER has an option to SNAP the CONTROL TO MAIN MOVIE (or something) but it's an ugly way, and it's left behind if u resize the MAIN MOVIE WINDOW (getting the main control in back it's really bad...).
I am wondering if there is a way to remove the control panel (as an option, of course) and add the controls on the main window (the one with the movie)... It's more simple, more facile, more ergonomic... and you don't stay all the time to rearange the windows and stuff..

I think this program is very ggod. I have not had any problems durin Win2k or WinXp. This is also one of the few programs that can view movies or videoclips with subtitles. You can also change the font of the subtitles. For people who have videclips or movies with subtitles i would recommend this.
