djoPlayer for Mac3.5.1

Doesn't open anything for me...

This application seems rather useless and unworkable. I got it because I was interested if it might have some simple movie-player controls that I like in MPlayer but don't always get to use with some .AVI movie files. So I install this, and it never works right. First off: don't make "Full Screen" and "Always on Top" default settings. That's annoying and unnecessary. If I want to play anything full-screen, it's usually already set up to run fine on QuickTime or DVD Player. I don't want another one hijacking that usage. Un-check those options for default. Second, it just doesn't work. Oh, it plays the video file fine...until I try to quit playing. Then it locks up and goes into permanent beach-ball mode until I finally have to Force Quit it. Three different times, I tried to play a movie and got a reasonably reliable play--it even had those controls I wanted for some AVI files in the first place. But ultimately, I can't trust a program that never shuts itself down and has to be Force Quit every single time. I don't know if this is an issue with the program every time or just because it's poorly written for a Tiger-operating system, but the result is the same: I trashed it.

How do you get this thing to open anything? Is another app needed along with djoplayer? Anyone, please advise. Can't get it to open anything.

annoying feature - first startup is full screen - NO THANKS also quite buggy under Tiger & hard to quit no real point to this software really as the MPlayer does it all anyway

ottimo programma di visualizzazione file

Doesn't seem to support Tiger. At least, I can't seem to get anything working on it.

What about the support for Jaguar (OSX 10.2) version 3.4.3 supported this. I would like to have the new version supported bij Jaguar also, would like some reactions to this

works fine for me and it does seem to smooth out the boxy look of some vids. would be nice if it actually showed up in the "Open with..." contextual menu when opening a file.

Here we go again. Every time a new version shows up, i give it a try. Never has been useful as it's main purpose seems to be crashing.

Very nice GUI to mplayer, small and easy to understand for anybody. Some AppleScript errors here and there, though. Should handle movies in multiple files. Neat and useful preferences interface. Keep on the good work...

works great! as advertised (and maybe better) :)

Crash! Crash! and Crash again!

Hi, if it doesn't work, please check that you have installed Applescript UI Scripting (included), and try the 3.4 version.

The control interface is well conceived and offers GUI elements for the most important controls. The aspect ration has to chosen manually, but the three choices offered will do the job for most movies. Sound and picture quality are excellent. I had a .avi movie that wouldn't play in VLC (stops after 1 minute) or MPlayer 2.0b5 the sound was, as usually, out of synch. QuickTime would play a 'doctored' .mov but only 'at intervalls'. Lastly, the small memory footprint is impressive. djoPlayer makes a valuable addition to the field of video players on MacOSX.
