What do you think of BS.Player

[Ico-man]

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

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. :)

BSplayer got a 6 on iterating

[Tizio]

:? :D

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

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.

(1) You havn't - up to now - been able to get rid of it?
(2) You can have a black background if you prefer that:
(rightclick >) Options > Preferences > Subtitles > [Subtitle properties]
Deselect "[ ] Transparent background"
(You can also select colour for the background there).

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

[Azazel]

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.

When editing your previous post in this thread (post #34) you mentioned "above post", but you probably refer to post #35? My personal choice for these forums is that a newer post is shown below a previous post. I suppose your personal preference is that the newest post is shown on top of the thread?
Anyhow expressions like above or below are not always OK for this vBulletin forum (as it used to be for BS.Player's previous phpBB-forum), as users can select themselves (in Thread Display Options) in which order (newer first or older first/top to bottom) they want posts to be shown.

It's ok,but in light of recent problems,im using Media Player Classic Home Cinema,or VLC

[Hillbilly]

Has to be a 10
For replay quality and versatility there is no competition to BS Player
