Very bad for HD, escpecially for AVCHD. I hate players that show opened file name on the top of the window far away from prorgess bar - this is not functional any way.

Looks good, has some nice settings and functions but it works well only for some low quality videos.

uninstalled :)

OK player, but no way to make it recognize monitor calibration .icm's. Like every media player it ignores calibration files and uses default monitor settings. There are plenty of good players around that either don't recognize .icm's or can't be tuned well enough to display images properly. Works OK, no major problems, but useless for testing PC-processed videos with proper white-points and color balance.

File association problem mentioned earlier appears to be fixed. Occasionally need to download a missing codec, but it has a far nicer interface and more convenient hot-keys than VLC( my backup media player.

This player has a lot of potential but this version has lots of problems. As an example, when installed it provides for file association. Unfortunatley it doesn't do any associating. If you force the association in File Types, the files will accociate but the program icon won't install. The software homepage has a forum but the developer/moderator is rarely there. When he is there, he may answer one question. Lots of questions/problems with very little input. Some furthur development and greater participation in the forum will help.

Simply the best and for free too! For years I used the MPC & WinDVD combo to play all files then I discovered GOM Player, what a revelation. Forget amateur looking players such as VLC or the like GOM Player really is the real deal and so easy to use yet with so many superior advanced options over it's competitors. At last a TRUE heir to the throne of the once mighty (When properly developed) MPC.

Exceptional and excellent media player! I'm used to MPC, but this player is loaded with TONS! of advanced features. Its the only player I could find that can repeat the last subtitle or go to the next subtitle. It also has a nice A-B repeat option, frame by frame advance, variable speeds with voice adjustment, move back & forward by keyframe, bookmark and chapter support, loads of settings for subtitles, audio equalizer, and comes with built-in codecs and filters (no more double subtitles!). Very stable and smooth running. Simply the best media player I've used so far. Highly recommended, both for simple and pro users.

Will not play back DVDs made from ripped Dishnetwork Dishplayer HDDs and converted to DVD format. Oddly enough, those same DVDs can be played back with any DVD player standalone I own including my Panasonic E80H DVD recorder that isn't supposed to play out of spec DVDs. It will however play the RAW Mpegs from the Dishplayer which are 544X480 Dolby Digital as well as the edited Mpegs when run through VideoRedo. Very strange....

Guides: if you have a problems with subtitles on this player just use VOBSUB filter (standalone or built-in with ffdshow filters)






waste of time: refused to open any of my files or dvd's claiming i am missing a codec.

This made me switch from VLC, it has much easier navigation. Looks great, kind of heavy on resources but overall its an awsome player, it has played every file I have thrown at it. Great piece of work

DVDs play fine for me. I use Cyberlink PowerDVD for MPEG2 decoding. Note GOM Player doesn't come with MPEG2 codec, but it uses the one installed on your system, so maybe that's why? I dunno.
It literally plays every video file I have with me... for some files, it didn't play, but then it gave me a link to download a free codec. love it!

I was veru enthusiastic about this software, it looks good, has a nice feel to it and is not overly complicated to work with yet have a lot of 'extra' options.

However, I could not get it to play DVD's from .ifo files, they would play but with no or distorted picture.
I now tried on two pc's with same result. Playing the VOB files directly worked, but the quality leaves something to be desired.

It handles divx/xvid and standard mpg files fine.

This could turn out to be a good software, but for now I hold my horses till DVD works proper for me. Maybe next version? :)
