Zoom Player v3.31 has been released.

This release contains one major change and several fixes.
The Major change is that the Key Registration System has changed. All previous keys are now null and void. Over the next 48 hours new registration keys will be sent to all registered users. If you have changed your eMail since registration or for some reason an updated key has not arrived by February 21st, visit the Zoom Player Registration Forum and post a message with details about your purchase (such as which eMail you used, which name was used in registration the TransactionID, the Invoice number or any other identifying information which we can use to identify your registration).

This release is intended to be a small bug-fix version that is a preamble to the release of Zoom Player v3.40 beta 1 which will include all-new changes and requested features.

Site should be fully functional again. Work on Zoom Player 3.40 is progressing nicely. You may have also noticed a new "Formats" section on the left-side bar. This new section describes what each media format is and where you can find components. I'm working on making it more expansive and a better companion to the media setup guide. Eventually I'm hoping to provide the easiest interface to get media playback working on your computer found anywhere on the net.

If no other issues arise, I expect the first beta of version 3.40 to be released within the next two weeks, stay tuned.

As some of you may have noticed, we were having some site problems for a few hours. We're hoping to get the rest of the site fully operational within the next couple of hours.

Looks like Gabest has updated his Matroska and RealMedia filters, go take a Look.

It took more time than I cared for, but finally, the Zoom Player v3.30 documentation is finally updated. This means that the Context Help from within Zoom Player should be fully functioning. Let me know if there are any issues.

In other news, The Zoom Player Traditional Chinese Language files is now up.

The Italian Zoom Player Language file is now up. Simplified Chinese and Spanish are being worked on.

It's a new year and work is ongoing on a new version. I have already written code to improve Flash playback and QuickTime will be a bit more responsive as well. We may have a new beta available within the next two to three weeks, stay tuned.

In other news, I've made slight updates to the Media Setup Guide with information on how to get FLAC audio to play and a new link to download the latest FFDShow builds.
