Media Player X2.0.0.4

There are many different forms of digital media and many different formats for those media files. Media Player X is a media player that allows users to play different audio, video, as well as displaying images. Media Player X also allows the creation of custom playlists for their media, while supporting detailed playback features.

A simplistic interface that lacks some features yet does remain functional and robust

Media Player X is not a detailed media player and some users will be disappointed by the lack of detail and features that they might be used to. That being said, the application is functional and can play multiple different formats clearly while maintaining their quality. The program does support playlists, a necessary feature that it provides in a strange format.Unlike some custom media players, Media Player X does have detailed play options. Users can fast forward and backward, skip ahead or back, pause and play, yet there is no loop function. Media Player X also includes the option to speed up or slow down the play speed, a nice addition to the program. The actual playing interface could be much worse and there many independent media players that have far less, putting Media Player X clearly ahead of them.

A mediocre array of features that provides useful options, yet still provides clear paths for improvement

Media Player X walks an interesting line between having a robust amount of features, yet at the same time, it can still lack in areas. The program provides good detail in some areas yet there are some features that users will simply expect, but find lacking and potentially disappointing. A prime example is the inability to burn audio to a CD, a feature that is included on the more robust media players.In other areas, Media Player X provides a surprising level of customization, for instance, the application offers full plugin support which is not commonly seen in independent media players. The program comes across as slightly confused, in a strange middle ground between detailed and lacking.

A useful media player that is clearly more advanced than some, yet obviously lacking compared to others

How useful Media Player X is depended greatly on a user's particular needs, those who enjoy multiple playlists, burning their own CDs and storing huge amounts of media in a library will be disappointed as it lacks detailed support. For those users who want to be able to play different media and slideshows of their images, with basic playlist functionality then it will serve just fine.
