Inmatrix has released version 17.1 of the Zoom Player media player. Zoom Player is available in Free and Max flavors. The price for a Max license is just under thirty euros. on this page the different versions are compared. The changelog for this release can be found below.

New

• “Display unwatched counter on TV Show category folders” setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Fullscreen Navigation / Thumbnail Cust.) that counts the number of unwatched episodes in “TV Show” categories and displays the count in a corner on the folder’s thumbnail.
• Full customization for the TV Show unwatched counter:
  • Size (relative to thumbnail)
  • Margins (relative to Size)
  • FontColor
  • BackgroundColor
• New “Display thumbnail season progression bar” setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Fullscreen Navigation / Thumbnail Cust.) that shows a season progression bar (similar to the last play position bar) in TV Show category based on the number of watched/unwatched episodes in a folder.
• New “Reset” option in each individual media library filtering mode (Genre, Tag and Collection).
• Two new Pixel Shader scripts you can use with MadVR as the video renderer to flip the video both horizontally and vertically.

changes

• Filtering the media library will now reset the selected entry to the first item, unless the “Auto-select last viewed file/folder on entering a folder” setting is enabled, in which case the last viewed file or folder is selected automatically.
• If you previously used a download tracking plugin, you must now re-enable it. Plugins were previously enabled by default which could have caused delays when exiting Zoom Player.
• Having ZP set to automatically show the media library when opening will no longer show the media library if a media was set to load using the command line.
• Zoom Player will no longer display the default background image if a media is set to load via command line, removing the slight flicker of the image and slightly speeding up load time.

Fixed

• Setting Zoom Player to pre-load fullscreen navigation graphics while trying to play a media from command line could cause ZP to freeze.
• When taking a screenshot of the playing video (Alt+F), the generated filename included a wrong position value (just the file name, the image was taken from the correct position).
• The “Stop function closes streaming media (instead of just stopping)” setting was accidentally applied to every playing media and not only live streams.
• Fixed a bug that would break URL links in the active playlist when closing and then re-opening Zoom Player.
