Announcing Zoom Player MAX and Zoom Player IPTV v21.2 release candidate 2

Zoom Player Beta

Published April 23rd, 2025

What's new in this beta:

  * New Setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Control Overlay) that allows you
    to set the maximum width (relative to your screen) for the control
    overlay's user interface while in fullscreen mode.

    This feature is very useful when using a mouse to control Zoom Player with
    a large display where you don't want to move the mouse long distances.

  * New Setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Control Overlay) that limits
    showing the control overlay on mouse movement only if the mouse is hovering
    over the top / bottom overlay controls (disabled by default).

  * New Setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Control Overlay) that
    automatically hides the control overlay if the mouse cursor moves
    into the video area and no longer hovers over the top / bottom overlay
    controls (disabled by default).

  * New settings (Adv. Options / Interface) that allow you to customize the
    hint pop-ups that appear when hovering over the timeline and in the
    color control overlay interface.

  * Added "Fullscreen (maintain zoom) on/off" button options to the control
    overlay's settings page (Adv. Options / Interface / Control Overlay).

  + You can now click anywhere in the video area to drag the playback window
    a few pixels when the left click action is set to play/pause. The play /
    pause action still works as intended if the mouse cursor isn't moved too
    far between clicking the button and letting go (16 pixels by default).

  + For clarity, I renamed the "Zoom on/off" double-click/middle-click mouse
    actions to "Fullscreen (maintain zoom) on/off"

  + Now that the control overlay has become the default interface, I moved the
    "Show time seek position hint over Timeline", "Show position preview
    thumbnail" and "Only if media reports key frames" settings from
    "Adv. Options / Interface / Control Bar / Timeline" to
    "Adv. Options / Interface" as these settings apply to both the control bar
    and the control overlay.

  + The timeline position hints are now styled in the same style as the color
    control overlay hints and are fully customizable under "Adv. Options /
    Interface".

  + To make it more accessible, I've added the "Group Manager" to more places
    in the IPTV's stream list right-click context menu.

  - When using non-DirectShow zooming or panning functions in fullscreen mode,
    the control overlay buttons stopped working.

  - There was a hard limit to the number of IPTV groups you could hide and
    unfortunately that limit was around 180-240 groups and going over would
    reset the hidden groups.

    I have upped the limit, allowing you to hide anywhere between 10000 -
    15000 groups, which should hopefully cover even the most Xtream playlist.

  - Using the control overlay did not reset the internal screen saver timing,
    causing it to incorrectly activate.

  - Trying to play a video with an external audio track failed if the original
    video file or streaming media had no audio track itself.

  - Fixed an issue where the next chapter feature did not always work.

  - Fixed a case when using the MPC-VR video renderer where the mouse cursor
    would sometimes stick as a resize cursor even after moving it from the
    window's edge.

  - Opening the options dialog with a media currently playing could would
    trigger a case where only the control overlay's timeline was visible.

  - The "Double-click triggers both double and single click actions" setting
    did not function as intended (single click action not triggered twice
    even if this setting was enabled), possibly broken by a previous update.

  - Fixed a crash when opening the color control overlay, closing it with
    the hint visible and then re-opening the color control overlay and
    hovering over the icons to show the hint.

  - The options dialog's section title area was not translated correctly
    when initially opening the options dialog.
