This project is an open-source multimedia player for Windows designed for high-performance audio and video playback. It functions as a DirectShow-based media renderer that utilizes hardware-accelerated graphics APIs to perform color space conversion and high-quality scaling directly on the display adapter.
The application distinguishes itself through granular control over playback dynamics and visual output. Users can manipulate video orientation through rotation, flipping, and zooming, while also leveraging support for high dynamic range rendering. The player supports automated playback sequences, subtitle track management, and the ability to stream or download media directly from web URLs.
The software architecture relies on modular codec integration and external binary loading to support a wide range of media formats without requiring core application changes. It provides extensive configuration options, including customizable interface layouts, input shortcuts, and registry-based state persistence. The project also includes automated tools for managing build environments and dependencies to ensure consistent compilation from source code.
