Softpedia Editor's Review for Adobe Media Player
|
Watch Internet-delivered TV and video podcasts
Written by Giorgiana Bursuc on November 29th, 2012
Nowadays, most television shows are also available online and it’s only a matter of taste when someone chooses to watch their movies on TV or on their computer screen. Adobe Media Player is a user-friendly application that allows users to search for their preferred episodes online and download them to the PC.
First of all, in order to access the functions of this application, an Adobe account is required, as the username and password is needed before gaining access to the app interface. Due to this tool, one can subscribe to Internet television shows or other online video content, so as to be able to watch them on demand.
After users specify the movie genre they like best and find the suitable shows, they can also pin them as ‘favorites’ so they can be easily located when one want to relax and watch a movie, or to create a list of items that should be downloaded at a later time.
Furthermore, one can also use Adobe Media Player to organize their downloaded items and sort them chronologically, according to the date each episode or movie was released. In addition, it is possible to configure the application to show only the latest episodes of a certain show or to allow users to catch up and provide them with access to several of the latest episodes, with as much as clicking a button.
However, please note that this application has been discontinued and that users can no longer gain access to television shows and episodes, so those who like to rely on their PC to watch movies and TV shows are advised to search for an alternative software solution.
