Introduction:
Zoom Player is the most Powerful, Flexible and Customizable DVD and Media Player for the Windows PC platform.
Using our powerful Smart Play technology, more media formats play with less hassle, improved stability and greater performance.
Zoom Player's fullscreen navigation interface is based on a simple 5-Key system (up/down/left/right/select).
The 5-key system allows easy access and navigation to such interfaces as Media Library, File Browsing, Playlist, Color Control,
Audio Equalizer, Chaptering, Play History and many more. The system's simplicity makes it ideal for users with no previous
computer experience.
With Zoom Player, you can instantly
Convert any PC into a Home Entertainment Center
or Home Theater PC (HTPC) with no requirement for specialized hardware or operating system (Zoom Player runs on every version of
Windows). Zoom Player's Install Center will scan your system for missing or outdated components and automatically present you with
a list of recommended updates, improving your playback performance and experience.
Utilizing Zoom Player's modular design and flexibility, you can easily design a safe viewing environment, limiting or extending
functionality, making it ideal for both children and to the consummate professional.
Zoom Player is fully scalable, supporting all the latest media formats and interfaces. New features are incorporated
on an ongoing basis with release schedules and feature integration clearly announced on our support
forums.
