I just checked it out, and damn! I am a huge niceplayer fan and other than the fact it doesn't have internalized controls thats borderless is the only negative I can see. If they can do that this thing will be HUGE.
As far as performance don't blink because its fast, it uses a tiny more cpu than vlc 1.0.5 (very impressive), but requires less memory and threads on average (from my what I saw in Activity monitor). Its really responsive it also exposes while still playing the video which i love. The playlist functionality is awesome, it opens all the files in the directory and cue up the next one ( which as simple as it is no one does), as well as the simple hot key layout (like niceplayer), plus the added video options is a plus. Definitley worth a look.
My wish list:
1. Borderless
2. Always on top works very well even keeps it in the background when its not plyaing which is great feature as long as its below QuickSilver.
3. 64bit...
4. Borderless did i mention that?
Switched from windows, and searched for a Gom Player alternative. I found Movist, which is even better!! I like VLC too, but I think Movist is more simple and much more beautiful!!
I'm new to Mac and recently tried every damn player to find one with proper look&feel and speed. THIS IS IT!
It's great, but would be even better with an option to delay the audio, so it could be used with Airfoil. :-)
project home at Google code
best app for watching with subtitles
Best so far ... love the "next file in the dirrectory" feature, also smooth ff and rw ... maybe if they added the button-less and border-less window feature would be even better !
How does this compare to XBMC or Plex?

So does it support the Apple remote control (like QuickTime Player does)?
