MidiPlus is media player for Windows that has the same abilities like Windows
Media player, plus optional use of play lists, many useful features and a nice
user interface.
Use of Play Lists is the main feature of MidiPlus. You can have as many lists
you want and as many songs on each list as well. You can play the songs in their
original order or randomly and if you want to hear a song again use the one
click away "Repeat Once" or "Repeat for ever" functions.
MidiPlus offers you the functions you need to easily create and maintain your
lists. You may create your lists using either the 'New Play List Wizard" that
offers you all the capabilities of MidiPlus or the Quick Function Menus that are
a click away, or using the classic "Play Lists" window.
One of the newest capabilities of MidiPlus is the auto creation of the lists
from a specified directory or ZIP file. The only thing you have to do is to
specify a directory or ZIP file to MidiPlus and add or remove as many files you
want from the directory or ZIP file and let MidiPlus take care for the changes
to the lists.
Last but not least and as useful as the other features is the Drag & Drop
support letting you drag files to MidiPlus for playing or adding them to a list.
Additionally some key features are: Midi Reset function, advanced command line
support, toolbar, Minimize to tray and other useful features.
MidiPlus can play MIDI, WAV, AVI and other file types that Windows Media Player
can play e.g. MP3 (If you have Windows Media Player 5.2 or above installed)
MidiPlus has received very good ratings from major Internet software archives, 5
Star Editors Pick from ZdNet's Hotfiles.com, 4 cows rating from Tucows, top
download in Softseek and other software sites. Haris I. Volos recently accepted
as a Developer member of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP).
