UMPlayer makes viewing videos and listening to audio much
easier with its all-in-one media player. The attractive design and
various tools perform in a comparable fashion to other free software,
but the app does have some issues.
Pros
Useful features:
UMPlayer easily played various media files on our PC, and the built-in
Shoutcast application worked perfectly when activated. The audio and
visual customization tools functioned fine as well, despite a minor
delay of a half-second when changing properties during playback.
Understandable layout:
All icons and menu options are easy to interpret, so you will find no
confusion when using this software. The dark color scheme draws
attention to videos in an attractive manner.
Cons
Missing functions:
YouTube streaming and recording did not work during our tests, and we
could not play videos by URL, either. Despite stating that it supports
CDA codecs, UMPlayer did not recognize any audio CDs in our disk drive.
Poor DVD playback:
Compared to other video players, UMPlayer lagged during DVD playback,
often freezing and restarting the video file. The DVD menu was
inaccessible as well.
Bottom Line
UMPlayer is an
acceptable media player that has a lot more potential. For now, some of
the missing features and playback issues may be too big of a trade-off
for most users.
UMPlayer is an advanced yet simple to use open-source cross-platform
multimedia player that aims to fill all your needs; with over 270
built-in Audio and Video codecs UMPlayer can play any media format
including AAC, AC3, ASF, AVI, DIVX, FLV, H.263, Matroska, MOV, MP3, MP4,
MPEG, OGG, QT, RealMedia, VOB, Vorbis, WAV, WMA, WMV, XVID as well as
Audio CDs, DVDs, (S)VCDs, TV / Radio cards, Youtube videos, SHOUTcast
Radio streams and even incomplete or damaged media files. It also comes
equipped with some unique features such as a built-in subtitles search,
YouTube player / recorder, SHOUTcast Radio player, skinable interface,
customizable hotkeys, audio / subtitles sync, and many more.
