PAT320  A software I was looking for a long time (still on tiger). I was tired of VLC, I don't want Perian "finder crasher" anymore, I found MPlayer unstable and heavy, so Movist is The one. He is faster than QT with wmv. The ability to choose between ffmpeg or quicktime is simply great. There is a lot of features not found in others players.

Movist should be more under spotlights.

MEGAS88  Wow, that's all I can say. I beats vlc blow for blow. Please fix yourself up vlc. Been loyal all these years. But this player has so much going for it. It's like what vlc is supposed to be. Works perfectly with mkvs. One problem. How do I get rid of the annoying popup title every time I open a new vid?

JON555  I have just recently started using this as a replacement for VLC and so far it's been nothing but awesome. Very feature-rich and its' codecs work the same, if not better, than VLC's. Plus, there are developers still working on this app. :)

Keep up the awesome work devs!!

SON1ZE  Perfect little media player for all formats that I would ever play. Love the fact that Apple Remote issues with SL 10.6.2 have been resolved and that the Menu button makes the video go fullscreen. I prefer to use with Movist.app 0.6.1 Gui Updater icons and Movist 0.6.4 BSP S v1.0 mods to make it visually more stunning.

With my typical use of playing AVIs and MP4s, only three missing features keep it from being a perfect app:

1. The ability to re-sync audio on-the-fly in 50ms increments using the F & G keys like VLC. Please add this functionality Devs!!!

2. Ability to open more than one video at the same time like Quicktime X.

3. Lastly not sure what causes this -- maybe Devs can answer this question -- but it just seems that neither Movist 0.6.7 or VLC 1.0.3 can scrub or scan forwards or backwards through the video timeline as smoothly as Quicktime X. Same video file is smooth in QTX but very jerky in Movist and VLC.

Other than that great job!
