Version: 2.3
Simply great: nice, essential interface, very reasonable price and best of all: immediate and effective support. I had problems with the subtitles of one of my files, contacted Bitfield, got an answer within minutes and a solution within a couple of hours. Quality both in the product and in the service. I made now Playr my default movie application.

Version: 2.2.4
great player and scrubs faster than all others out there, even the pro ones.. great UI.. i wish it could trim and export videos and take quick screenshots (with automatic scaling options for the screenshot and automatic saving to a folder).. won't give it a 5 star because it crashes a lot when scrubbing through video.. Please keep up the good work.

Version: 2.1.3
I just would like to see some keyboard shortcuts to Push / Pull Audio and Subtitles, and Back / Forward 10 secs, or 1 minute, as we have on “Movist” and “VLC".
With that it would be perfect!

Just started using this... so far a very nice player. Only 1 complaint, it dose not remember the volume setting. Have to re-adjust it for every file I open.

Just signup to leave a request for Playr developer:
1. Is there any shortcut for seeking 10 sec using Left or Right keyboard?
2. If there are none, I would really welcome this feature in next update. :-)
