It seems like PocketTV Team likes to point out the fallacies in Betaplayer without doing much research.
1. Betaplayer CAN stream videos off of the net, and also audio files like shoutcast and WMP streams.
2. By default, the player uses right-handed landscape orientation for its full-screen view, which is what the majority of people want. There's no need to change it unless you want to, and it's very easy to do so.
3. He states that Betaplayer has a plethora of options that make little sense or are useless. Last time I checked, an equalizer wasn't useless, neither was color and saturation settings, hotkeys, and the player settings themselves. Betaplayer automatically detects which driver would give the best speed during playback and all you have to do after you install it is pick the file you want to play and it works fine. The settings are there only if you want to tweak something.
With that said, how many people actually use MPG anymore? AVI is definitely by far way more popular, and Betaplayer also supports plugins. I thought I would never come across a MPC file but just the other day I received a soundtrack ripped to MPC. And I have some movies that are encoded in AC3 also. It's great to be able to add functionality onto a player using plugins.
Seems to me like they're trying to spread FUD.
