Crystal Player Professional Editor's Review

I used to have a dozens of video players, some for playing AVI's, other for playing MKV's, other for watch movies with subtitles, etc, until I found Crystal Player. At first it looked quite simple, but once I got more and more into it, I began to discover it's complexity, and all the settings that I wanted to have in a video player developed by myself!

I always had issues when I tried to load a subtitle in a movie, but Crystal Player makes it simple! Quick load, position the subtitles wherever I want, change the font or the color, even to correct the video-subtitle delay! Plus, if you have a wide video, you can arrange the subtitle “outside the screen” and you can watch all the video without any text on it! Tricky features such as the possibility to zoom the video as much as you need, render the movie left-side-right or otherwise up-side-down, take screen shot (press “C”) can also be performed with ease by Crystal Player.

Think of this scenario: Many times, in the night when you go to bed, you start a movie, and you fall asleep... Before using Crystal Player, you got up in the morning with your computer on...resulting in waste of electricity...but not anymore! Because Crystal Player has the option (if you activate it) to shut down the computer in 2 minutes after the movie is finished!!!(or when all the movies from the playlist are finished.)

Pro's: Best subtitle management, simple to use, can play almost any files (with the right codecs, it can play ALL the video files), can shut down computer after the movie playback, it has a “BOSS KEY” (if you watch movies at your office CTRL+SHIFT+BACKSPACE will instant close the program);

Con's: Doesn't have a playlist buffer...;

Conclusions: The best video player I ever used. The most complete and still simple to use! Is an enlightening experience, and once you try it, you will never use other video players! It has everything you need to watch your movies, even if you might need some additional codecs (I recommend CCCPack as the ultimate)
