What do you think of BS.Player

[Python42]

What I really like is the ability to customize the keyboard shortcuts and the support for Winirc. What I don't like is the lack of a detailed user manual (specifically detailing the options choices). That, and the problem with the latest releases freezing.

I would like to be able to see what codecs are being used for decoding the currently playing media file and some way to specify which codecs should be given priority. I have no idea whether bsplayer is using a bsplayer specific codec, for example, or my DivX Pro codec which was installed separately.

It's still the best player out there.

1. You can see which filter it's used when playing a file. Rightclick -> options -> filters and it's all there. If you click on advanced, yoy can even see the path to the filter.
2. If you hoover the mouse over most of the options, you will get a short description.
3. As for filter priority..it's up to every user. I personally prefer XviD filter to decode all MPEG4 stream it can decode, CoreAVC for x264...and so on.

I gave it a 7, the pro version is very nice. Would've gotten a 10 easily. Though the FREE version is nothing worth more than an 1.

The "free" version of BSplayer is BS; You have to install spyware to run the program.

Actually, I'd rather have no ads whatsoever, as I have no NEED or WANT to be brainwashed by software installed on my Personal Computer.

The full version rules, tho..

great for movies, the best for subtitles movies, getting there on the music front

Adware. - (ONLY UP TO VERSION 2.30)

"The full version rules, tho.."

Thank you.

New version occassionally screws features that were working OK. That woulnd't be a problem, if fixes came fast. The problem is they sometimes come 2 months late on CONFIRMED regressions.

We are trying to keep up. You can help us by posting bugs and include as much informations as you can such as , BS.Player version, OS, media filetype, and the conditions under which the bug occured. (screen shot...)

I came back to check out BSPlayer after many years and am disappointed to find out that the free version is now adware supported. This player used to one of the best out there.

What I don't realize is why would anyone use a feature-crippled adware laden video player when there are so many good free alternatives out there (VLC, GOMPlayer, Media Player Classic)... :roll:

[Tizio]

Because BSplayer is the best player! Simple! And if you want to support it (otherwise it's development could be canceled) you can either buy the cheap Pto Lite version or use the adware based one.
I know it's disappointing, but it's needed
:roll:

It's my favorite video player. :)

[Mon1018]

BSplayer got a 6 on iterating

[Tizio]

:? :D

[adicoto]

In my opinion, there is a huge mistake in what that picture shows. BSPlayer can't compete with those programs.

[Mat2000]

Now without Adware pure 10.
:)

[zamenhof]

i love it, it does the job
and fast..

I an really pleased with BS player pro v. 2.41
I could not give it a 10 though as I had to stuff around for over an hour to get it to play DVDs, finally resolved with the installation of K-Lite codec pack.

Also it wont play youtube videos. I enter the url and click 'ok' and nothing happens...even if I leave it for a few minutes.

I have used lots of free media players and they work straight away without having to install this or adjust that.

Other than these issues I am loving it.

9/10 because, almost everytime I install an update, some of my settings (not related with BSPlayer!!) are changed, such my default internet browser, my screensaver settings, or my divx settings ....

9/10 it loves my MKV files,i prefer them too,richer in colour,sharpness of picture.
VLC apparently comes with internal codec pack,but stutters with MKV's.
My only gripes are the annoying subtitle message at the start,and from what i've experienced the few times i've used the subs,they're not on a black background,which can be annoying with certain films.
Apart from that,it's a superb little player.
Fixed see above post.

The bs Player in my opinion,is the best media player out there.
It beats Media Player classic,which is my 2nd fave.
My fave codec is MKV,which is best for 720p & 1080p HD rips.
BS plays them with perfection,sharp pic & good scope of sound.
VLC & others bow down before BS.
