Zoom Player 5.00 release candidate 2

Posted on Monday, December 04 2006 @ 19:59 CET by

Here's what changed from RC1:
  • New Setting (Advanced Options / Interface / Control Bar / Display), allowing you to position the control bar at the Top, Center or Bottom of the video area.
  • New Setting (Advanced Options / Interface / On Screen Display / Fullscreen Navigator) allowing you to choose which navigation interfaces are to be listed on the Main Navigator.
  • New Setting (Advanced Options / Interface / On Screen Display / Fullscreen Navigator) allowing you to choose If the Navigate-Left key goes up a directory until reaching the root directory or goes to the Drive/Category list directly (File and Media Library Navigators).
  • New Setting (Advanced Options / Interface / On Screen Display / Audio Tags) allowing you to choose Auto-Hide the background folder image along with the tags.
  • New Setting (Advanced Options / Interface / Control Bar) allowing you to show the Control Bar when the mouse cursor is at the top of the screen.
  • Clicking the right and left most pixels in any of the navigation interfaces is now equivalent to clicking right/left on the arrows.
  • New 2710 CommAPI message allowing you to query the Random Play state (it is also sent when the user changes the Random Play state).
  • Pressing Enter on the File Navigator drive list will now open the drive at the root directory. Pressing Right on the drive list opens the last directory browsed on the selected drive.
  • Pressing Enter on the Media Library Navigator category list will now open the category at the root directory. Pressing Right on the category list opens the last directory browsed on the selected category.
  • New "On Play Complete" value of "Open Media Library".
  • New 256x256 Windows VISTA icon.
  • New Skin Script "SearchFG" play list parameter, allowing you to set the font color for the search box.
  • New Skin Script command "CBarFontMargin" allowing you to specify side margins within the Control Bar timeline in which the font shouldn't be drawn.
  • New Skin Script command "TLineFontMargin" allowing you to specify side margins within the main GUI timeline in which the font shouldn't be drawn.
  • The media library navigator now remembers the last path location for each category.
  • The control bar no longer closes when opening a navigation interface while the control bar is detached.
  • When stay on top is enabled, the control bar remains accessible if it is detached from the user interface.
  • "Advanced Options / Interface / Control Bar / Buttons" no longer lists inaccessible functions.
  • The Information Dialog ("I" with a media file playing) now shows format information for the playing file (requires Smart Play enabled).
  • The internal screen saver now runs at idle priority (doesn't take any CPU power unless the CPU isn't doing anything else). This also fixes the problem where using a remote control to turn off the screen saver would not always react instantly.
  • The TAG-Display background color now uses the user-specified Fullscreen Background color instead of Black.
  • The Browse for Folder dialog is now resizable.
  • The navigation interfaces would not display properly on a secondary monitor under certain conditions.
  • Adding files to the play list from the File or Media Library Navigators could fail under certain conditions.
  • Auto-Get duration would not work under certain conditions.
  • The Fullscreen Navigation font wasn't being saved properly.
  • Having a Volume/Balance/Play Rate bar on either the Control Bar, Equalizer or Play List interfaces would disappear when going fullscreen.
  • The mouse cursor would not hide properly when using the internal image decoder or the Flash/HTML/QuickTime ActiveX controls.
  • When opening the Media Library Navigator and going to the category selection screen for the first time and then back to the file listing, the file list position would reset.
  • Opening non-standard URLs (tivo:// for example) should now work from command line.
  • Under some circumstances, the file navigator wouldn't highlight the currently playing file properly.
  • The navigation scrollbar size would not always scale properly.
  • Opening a new file with the mouse cursor hidden and the control bar visible would hide the mouse cursor to the point it wouldn't show again.
  • Frame advance got broken.
  • Holding Alt+Enter (fullscreen) for a several seconds straight could cause a crash.
