Storm Video adopts NSIS package, which is a standard Windows installer. It is characterized by multi-language single file (currently simplified Chinese+English), stable and flexible installation, uninstallation, maintenance and repair functions, and integrated decoder combination to optimize compatibility as much as possible, which is suitable for most ordinary users who mainly need multimedia appreciation or simple production, as well as novice users. For users who are experienced or have professional multimedia production needs, we suggest that you install independent software suitable for your own needs instead of using the integrated universal decoding package.
Media player classic
Solemnly declare: The author of Media Player Classic is Hungarian Gabes. We are not the author of Media Player Classic, but our software is based on Media Player Classic, and it has been humanized and integrated, and some original tools and contents have been added to facilitate users' use.
Media Player Classic can be said to be the best DirectShow player at present, but you may also find some inconvenience in use, such as the inability to perform brightness level and poor playlist support. Many users have put forward suggestions for improvement, but I think it should be added that the author of Media Player Classic is Gabest. We just want to get his permission to localize and integrate into our own software. We are not the authors of MPC, so there is nothing we can do. If you have any suggestions about player Media Player Classic, you can contact the author of the player (English or Hungarian).
Stormwind Company (baofeng.com) released Stormwind Video 2007 today, which absorbed the experience of Stormwind Video in the past four years, and solved the biggest problem that netizens can't get support when using the video format of playing software.

With the popularity of video entertainment, video formats emerge one after another, and all kinds of playback software are not updated for a long time, so it is impossible to support multiple media formats in time. 1 At the beginning of the year, the survey report released by Storm Data (data.baofeng.com) showed that the video format was not supported, which became the biggest problem encountered by netizens when using the playback software. Up to 3 1.9% of netizens are troubled by this problem. At the same time, 22.7% netizens listed supporting format as the most important function of playing software, which was significantly higher than other functions.
The demand for energy.

This strategy will integrate all kinds of decoders first, and then optimize the sorting, thus supporting as many as 189 media formats, including various network videos, mobile phones and MP4 videos. In 2006 alone, 79 kinds of support were added, covering most new formats on the Internet. The new version of the product is the playback software that supports the most multimedia format in China at present.
In addition, the perfect version with complete functions comprehensively optimizes the video adjustment functions such as subtitle embedding, multi-channel adjustment and screen capture. At the same time, it provides a faster upgrade service and promises to support the latest video format as soon as possible, making it a classic version worthy of netizens' collection.
