Zoom Player v4.10 beta 1
* Zoom Player now includes an integrated key editor allowing you to
assign Zoom Player functions to any key or compatible Multimedia
device (such as Multimedia keyboards and 4-Button Mice).
You can edit the keys separately for either DVD or Media modes through
the Advanced Options Key dialog by pressing the "Edit" button next to
the custom key file selection.
Pressing Edit with no key file specified will allow you to select a
new file in which to save the updated key map.
* New Station Navigator allowing you to navigator through Radio Stations.
* New Setting (Advanced Options / Settings / Interface) allowing you
to have a hint box pop when the mouse cursor is over the timeline
indicating where the seek would go when clicked (enabled by default).
* New Setting (Advanced Options / Settings / Interface) allowing
automatic switching to Audio Mode when a media file containing no
video stream is loaded.
* New Setting (Advanced Options / Settings / Interface) allowing
automatic switching to Media Mode when a media file containing a
video stream is loaded (and you are currently in Audio Mode).
* New Setting (Advanced Options / Filter Control / Settings) allowing
you to enable YUV Mixing mode on the VMR Video Renderers (VMR7/VMR9).
This mode may reduce CPU use on some systems.
* New Value (Advanced Options / Values / Interface) allowing you
to specify the distance (in pixels) the mouse cursor needs to move
to be shown once it was automatically hidden.
* New Value (Advanced Options / Values / Interface) allowing you to
specify a delay after closing a media file. This can be useful with
some filters that may not close themselves properly if not given
such a delay.
* New OSD Value (Options / OSD / Actions) allowing you to have a
hint box pop when the mouse cursor is over the timeline indicating
where the seek would go when clicked (enabled by default).
* New "/DVDBM" Command Line Parameter allowing you to specify a DVD
bookmark file from command line. For example:
"/dvdbm:c:\zplayer\DVD-Bookmarks\DVDVOLUME.2E662BB6D20F0ECF\start.chp"
* New Customized Media Profiles for the new OpenSource DScaler decoders
(MPEG/AC3/DTS Audio and MPEG-2 Video).
* Radio Stations are now based on user defined names instead of just
the URL. You can also rename stations now.
* New Button on the "Advanced Options / Association" page allowing you
to set the Zoom Player icon to all associated file extensions.
* New Button on the "Advanced Options / Association" page allowing you
to select all Audio Extensions.
* New Button on the "Advanced Options / Association" page allowing you
to select all Video Extensions.
* Zoom Player should now appear on the "Open With" windows dialog on
all supported formats, even if they are not specifically associated
with Zoom Player.
* Support for the NVIDIA DVD Navigator. Not really sure it works
well as a DVD Navigator, but feel free to give it a shot.
* Support for the FFDShow RAW Video Processor Sub-Filter as a DVD
Post-Processing filter. This filter comes with newer (as of the
last few months) of FFDShow and doesn't require you to enable RAW
mode in the filter dialog itself.
* New Customized DVD Profile for the GPL DVD/MPEG decoder:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gplmpgdec/
* New Customized Media Profile for DV Video.
* New Dummy Function (doesn't do anything, can be useful for skinning).
* New Keyboard Macro (Ctrl+"U") and Function (fnSceneCutToggle) allowing
you to enable/disable the Scene Cut feature.
+ Enhancements to Communication interface.
+ When entering hours/minutes/seconds on the GoTo dialog, entering two
digits will now go to the next cell automatically.
+ The Internal Format database has been updated with newly released
decoders (such as the DScaler filters and the improved MP3 decoder).
+ Zoom Player will now automatically associate the ZPL (Zoom Player
Play List) extension upon first run.
- Under some conditions the File Navigator would not remember the
last path.
- DVD NumPad commands should now work outside of menus.
- Could not create new Customized Media profiles.
- Using the Mouse Wheel to move the window/video was broken.
- When extracting Archive files, Zoom Player will now let you know
