Kantaris Media Player 0.3.5

Обновился плеер Kantaris. По внешнему виду и по функциональности программа напоминает стандартный Windows Media Player. Для воспроизведения видео Kantaris использует клиент Videolan (VLC), что дает возможность проигрывать практически любой файл, не устанавливая кодеки. В отличие от VLC, Kantaris имеет поддержку многие аудиоформатов, в том числе MP3, WMA, OGG, MIDI, AC3, AAC, MP4 и FLAC. Проигрыватель может воспроизводить DVD и аудиодиски. Во время проигрывания аудио в окне плеера можно наблюдать разные визуализации.







Kantaris 0.3.5 released

- It’s been almost exactly two months since version 0.3.4 and this is what I’ve been working on.

- Playback of all audio-CDs should now finally work.

- Seeking in MPEG-2 files fixed.

- Much better RAR support. Can now play most rar-archives containing video instantly without any unpacking and being able to seek in the file like it’s unpacked. I think this is a unique feature that no other player for windows has. I know that XBMC for Xbox can do the same.

- Automatically identifying a movie and listing subtitles for it available at opensubtitles.com also automatically downloads the subtitle of choice. This might also be a unique feature.

- A few other bug-fixes.



- Getting support for subtitles with character encoding which are different from western standards and not Unicode proved to be more difficult than expected so I wasn’t able to finish it in this release. Hopefully a new version with this feature added - will be out already this week.



- Also I like to mention that Kantaris was featured on TechTV on a show named “The Lab with Leo Laporte” and they said some very nice things about the player. The show airs in Canada and Australia
