Lime Light1.1.470

Lime Light is a software tool which can be used in order to aid individuals in listening to songs and watching movies, regardless of the extension it has.

Quick setup and minimal environment

The installation process does not last longer than a few seconds and does not bring any kind of unpleasant surprises. Once you are done with it, you are met with a plain and clean interface, as it consists of a menu bar, a few buttons and a pane where to display the image feed. Moreover, extensive Help contents are integrated and therefore, even people with little or no previous experience with computers can find their way around it with great ease.

Supported formats

This software utility supports a wide range of extensions, including MPC, AIF, ASF, AU, MID, APE, FLAC, WAV, AVI, FLV, SWF, CDA, MPG, MP4, MP3, AAC, 3GP, RM, M3U, and PLS. All of these can be uploaded only with the help of a file browser, as the “drag and drop” function is not supported. Nevertheless, you should know you can also open video streams from the Internet, by simply pasting the URL in the appropriate box.

Create playlists and save them to the HDD

You can activate a full-screen mode in order to watch movies without distractions, adjust the volume bar, repeat the item currently playing and always place it on top of all other opened windows. It is possible to create playlists, view total playing time and save them to the hard drive using an M3U, PLS or LLPL format.

Enable and change hotkeys

Keyboard shortcuts are supported and they can be customized from the settings panel. Moreover, you can automatically start playback, show or hide song information, allow multiple instances and control the sound balance.

Finally

To wrap it up, Lime Light proves to a pretty efficient piece of software, when it comes to playing audio and video files. Although the interface is not particularly appealing, it is user-friendly, the response time is good and the import capabilities are impressive, to say the least. Nevertheless, you should know that in our tests, playing an URL failed on multiple occasions.
