Multimedia Players (Sound and Video)...

Player #1

Player #1, a media guide, an Internet radio tuner, a CD burner, and support for countless media formats and various external devices. In keeping with modern trends, Microsoft has added features such as Smart Jukebox technology that features audio CD burning with volume leveling. Windows Media Player can automatically organize your media files, even if you move them around. You can rate each song you play or let the program assign ratings based on the number of times each song is played, then create playlists of your favorite music. Another feature, Auto Info, can automatically fix or add album details (tags) to your MP3 and WMA files such as artist or album name, year, composer, or track number. Additionally, you can toggle between a full-screen interface and a miniplayer mode that docks the player to your taskbar.

Player #2

New features in Player #2 include support for classic Player #2 1.x/2.x/2.9x skins and Player #2 3 (Modern) skins; a fancy new Modern skin; the same classic skin for people who want the Player #2 2 feel; a vastly more powerful media library; CD-ripping support (AAC@2x in the Free version, MP3 at unlimited speeds in the Pro version); CD-burning support (limited to 2x in the free version); advanced title-formatting logic for file types that support it; huge AVS updates; support for playback of AAC and VP6 in NSV files/streams; global hot-key support; a new Signal Processing Studio DSP plug-in; options for disabling plug-in exception-handling for developers; a new Player #2 icon; and the addition of XP manifest.xml to Player #2. The developer made the agent icon use the configured Player #2 system tray icon, made the program faster, made Player #2's internal submenu management more reliable, added skin-font-override preferences, and added a spacebar that shows the current playlist item in the playlist editor.

Player #3

Player #3 creates, plays and streams audio and video content over the Internet. Player #3 supports the MPEG-4 file format and video codec. MPEG-4 offers compression times and video quality that rival those of the best proprietary codecs, yet it provides interoperability with other MPEG-4 players and devices. Other features include AAC audio support, skip protection, an updated user interface and much more.

Player #4

The free Player #4 is the only digital media player you need to find and download new music, play and manage audio and video clips, and take your digital entertainment with you. Player #4 Basic offers a new, streamlined interface that allows you to keep your media library close at hand. Keep all your digital media clips organized in one place; save CD tracks with just one click; pause and rewind live streams; transfer music to CDs and portable devices effortlessly; and enjoy clear, smooth video playback and Utica, surround-sound support.

Player #5

Player #5 is an all-in-one, digital-music management tool that rips, mixes, burns, organizes, and plays music. Super Tagging instantly adds album and artist information to your MP3s. The redesigned Music Center in 8.2 gives you easier access to all of your favorite music and Jukebox features. All Player #5 users can enjoy Player #5 Radio and gain instant access to Player #5 MX, the popular music service-featuring Artist on demand. 8.2 also includes Player #5 Downloads, which lets you instantly buy tracks for 99 cents each and $9.99 for most albums.

Player #6

The Player #6 is the official player for ALL of your DivX® video content, including videos encoded with DivX® 5, DivX® 4, and DivX® 3. The Player #6 plays all versions of DivX® video and can even play broken AVI files. The Player #6 is now the only video player application you'll need. In addition to DivX® video files, the Player #6 supports other common media formats like MPEG-1 (.mpg), MPEG-2 (.vob), Windows Media Video(.asf and .wmv), and AVI files (.avi). Make the Player #6 your default player for all popular video formats. The Player #6 supports AVI files that include audio tracks in common sound formats including AC-3. If the proper audio codec is installed on your system, the Player #6 will use it to play the audio. The Player #6 now supports multiple audio tracks stored in AVI files. This provides support for non-English speaking users who want to listen to soundtracks in a native language. The Player #6 requires less CPU and memory than many other players, including Windows Media Player. This offers users several advantages, including the ability to play great-looking DivX video content on older, less-powerful PCs. The Player #6 supports hardware accelerated video post-processing with selected video hardware. The Player #6 interface skin system allows for lots of cool new features, including transparency, non-rectangular windows, custom-designed bitmap fonts, multiple windows (you can design your own windows that pop-up with a set of favorite controls), sliding interface panels, and a whole lot more. To really see what it's capable of, you'll have to read the How to Make a Skin page, but suffice to say that skin artists have already had a field day exercising their artistic talents with the skin system. Skins are auto-installed when they are double-clicked. A new feature of the Player #6 is the ability to play fullscreen video properly on multi-monitor systems. The Player #6 can either limit the fullscreen playback to a particular monitor or, if the system is set up properly, span fullscreen playback across multiple monitors, providing the user an enormous video display. The Player #6 can directly access video content that is stored on the Internet. By simply typing a URL into the Player #6, the Player #6 will begin to download the content on a web page. The Player #6 "progressively downloads and plays" the content because it will begin playing before the download is finished, allowing you to begin viewing the film in a matter of minutes (sometimes seconds!).
