CorePlayer 1.0 Professional Technology Demo
We have begun sending the CorePlayer 1.0 Professional Technology Demo for Windows XP and Vista first to the users who helped us along the way via an invitation system at CoreCodec.com.
I would like to extend the welcome to test this version to the regulars here at Doom9 before we send it to a much wider audience over the next few days. Please note this Technology Demo and is limited to 30 days and that we have purposefully not included all the features of our upcoming official 1.0 release like; Streaming, Custom Skins, UPNP, SyncML, CoreTheque Database, Seek and Share Social Networking, etc. We however have included every codec under the sun.. so bond... Since CoreAVC Professional Edition is bundled with CorePlayer Professional... H.264 videos average about 15% faster performance using the native CorePlayer Framework Vs. using it within the Directshow framework. The Tech Demo for CorePlayer Mobile for CE, Pocket PC, Windows Mobile, Palm and Symbian is up for release to the general public by Friday. D9 regulars that want a copy of the CP PRO version... PM me with your email address.... and post comments on anything you find here... thx

Oh... I was asked why the UI was so 'clean'... its been designed to be intentionally simple. Having clutter on a UI simply does not work. But having the info you need does...
To that end... our UI is designed around something we call "Universal Skins". This allows a skinner to write 'one' skin for ALL our supported CorePlayer platforms... simple right? The advantage to this approach is that we can also allow the skinner to create customizable interface that the end user himself can then customize to his liking. While this will not be released to CorePlayer 1.2 or 1.3... it allows you to make the Skin UI truely 'yours'.

Not at the moment. We have a DS interface planned or as Haali likes to say a 'wrapper' to allow you to use DS filters installed on the local PC with CorePlayer.

Are pricing details available yet? Will purchase of the Windows version give you the Mac/WMob/*nix version too? If not, will there be discounts?
It sounds like you are planning to heavily promote the 'community' aspects of the player. Is it compatible with .flv videos from youtube, et al? Is there further integration with non CC sites? Also, what do you think the most exciting feature is? |

alright, got it.
Firsts impressions: * no options, no right click to get menus * pretty nice UI (simple) * slow open menu, if you are deep in a drive and you want to change drive, but easy playlist maker gonna try playback when I get home

Yes all 1.xx users get all 1.xx upgrades for sure... HOWEVER with that being said... DVD will not come 'bundled' for a while but will be sold as a seperate plugin that people can purchase for $4.95.
On a side note... Blu-Ray will be bundled when we release it somewhere around v1.5.

Well, to me this is nothing less than a milestone: I can finally play perfectly all kinds of video up to 1080p encoded in H264 with my laptop equipped with a Pentium M 1.86Ghz. It's just too bad that I don't have any HD content (except trailers) to watch
