DestroY MediaPlay

DestroY MediaPlay is a media player that comprises plenty of useful features and which offers support for a few audio and video file types, such as MP3, WMA, WAV, MPG, WMV, OGG, ASF, AVI, and MID.

The interface of the application is familiar to the one of Winamp, so it's pretty simple to work with. Loading audio and video items into the player are done using the file browser or folder view. You can load items from the hard drive, URL, audio CD, DVD drive or an IFO file.

DestroY MediaPlay provides standard media player functions, such as pause and stop, skip to the next or previous track, as well as navigate back and forth within the stream using a slider.

You can switch to full-screen mode, go to the root or title menu of the DVD clip, make the movie play on the desktop, as well as configure video settings when it comes to the brightness, contrast, gamma, hue, saturation, and sharpness.

It is possible to adjust an equalizer, manage playlists and plugins, switch to mini mode, change the UI skin, enable and reassign global media hotkeys, modify the frame opacity, set the tool to retrieve CDDB data for audio CDs and to load lyrics automatically, make file associations, customize playlist properties, and others.
