Introduction to File Extensions
Different file formats use different file extensions to help the user (you) and the system (Zoom Player) identify different types of content. The File Extensions page allows you to inform Zoom Player of new or user-specific extensions Zoom Player should be looking for when loading media files or listing directory content (Zoom Player filters unidentified file extensions from file lists).

At any point, you can press the "Default" button to result the default extensions Zoom Player has been verified with.

Auto-Get Duration / Title for the following media file extensions
