• Good features, over-priced, unstable, no error control.

  renshaugerMarch 20, 2013

  Pros

  The component has many desirable features and will play many video formats, but additional capability for playing the most popular current formats incurs extra cost, making the component overly expensive for what it does.

  Cons

  Be very wary of this component. It is unstable, will crash on many videos (about 1 in 5), and there is no error control to help you keep it from crashing your application (and sometimes even the system). This is a major drawback in using the component in any kind of application that you might plan to distribute. Having purchased the extra capability of playing MP4 files, I found many to play jerkily though they would play just fine in WinAmp, WMP, and VLC. When reporting this problem, the developer asked that I send examples. I did this and never heard back. This has remained a problem in all versions.

  Summary

  How wonderful it would be to have a component like this to include in graphics applications. Unfortunately, the instability, lack of error control, overpricing on additional formats, and inability to play all formats efficiently make it impossible to recommend this component very highly.

• False price, terrible support, mediocre product

  zgrujicJune 14, 2009

  Pros

  See for yourself, but if anything goes wrong, you will be on your own, or author will require additional money for support or bug fix

  Cons

  Shallow work, very basic and limited documentation, unclear and deceptive pricing, you will need to pay additional $400 or more for additional video formats support (*.vob, *.mpg)

  Summary

  Know this developer for 5 years, I am registered user of previous product version which appeared to be quite buggy, never got a solution or help on any reported bug, just blurbs, phrases and additional payment demands on terrible English. My advice is to go somewhere else, unless you are looking for trouble.
