Claimed to be the most polished Zoom Player ever, notable features in respect to playback experience, in a nutshell, are:

  • The PowerDVD 12 video decoder is now supported for DVD decoding
  • Four control buttons on taskbar: play/pause, mute, play next file, play prev file
  • New white skin called Alba (I named this!)
