  • Internal - DirectShow player. K-Lite codec pack required.
  • FFPlay - external open source media player.

• Outputs:
  • All possible outputs could be changed while player does not play anything.
  • If some outputs are missing, check and (or) reinstall your drivers.
• Playback:
  • VLC and FFPlay inputs are good for streaming medias. Fresh K-Lite pack (Internal input) is also good but may crash.
  • DCP - use for tests only. Does not support all the XML formats to identify media files. Performance might be low (depends on codec packs installed on your PC).
  • YouTube - yes, supported. Thanks to youtube-dl library developers.
