plays a variety of proprietary and standard multimedia formats.
The program plays video (ASF, AVI, MPEG, RealMedia, and QuickTime via Windows Media Player), audio (MIDI, MP2, MP3, WAV, AU, AIF, RealAudio, and more), and a full range of hyperlinked text and image formats. It also supports streaming media.
In addition, ThrottleBox plays its own BOX files, a format for delivering multimedia material over the Internet or local networks. The format integrates all types of online media (including video, audio, still images, text, and hyperlinks) into a single downloadable, portable file. This avoids missing or misplaced pieces, and allows video and audio scaling to any desired quality (up to full-screen broadcast quality or even higher). The files are encrypted and password-protected to prevent tampering. Their size is considerably smaller than that of other video and audio files formats.
A "favorites" menu lets you bookmark frequently accessed files. The player interface is customizable.
The program runs as a convenient icon in the System Tray area of the Windows taskbar.
