Gom Player 2.3.90 reviews
Proper DVD codecs are missing and there is no help trying to find what needs to be fixed.
It says it can play m4v files but when I try to play my apple itunes m4v file it does nothing - and support wow just incredible basically a robot sending the same email over and over.
If you want to throw away our money then buy buy buy otherwise go somewhere else this software is basically a minor video player you get with any computer.
However, as some have mentioned, despite the many nice things Gom has to offer, nowadays, there are better players out there, ads free and without "codec missing" excuses and the alike!
While gom definitely looks the best of all players, you will one day realize that certain subs are missing while watching stuff. i find this very risky.
I use CCCP (combined community codec pack)and mkv subtitles work just fine for me.
But now... the last version of GOM cannot be used on your computer. I am done with GOM.
GOM has no audio when playing DVDs. Tried downloading who knows what to get it right, tried playing around with the preferences. Still no audio.
I can only get audio if I click into each .Vob of the DVD, but the video is extremely pixelated and the audio is way off.
Better media players out there where I can simply play a DVD without frustration. GOM is probably the worst media player I've ever downloaded.
to get the fdd*** icon in the notification area , select preferences, filter, Go to Advanced Settings tab.
then,on the "Filter Rendering Method" check the "Advanced" box. On "Filter Priority", click on the "Add Filter" and then chose fdd audio decoder.
But now I found a workaround to play .rm video as follows:
1. Open Gom Player.
2. Right click and choose "Preferences...".
3. Choose "Filter" from left pane.
4. Go to "Advanced Settings" tab.
5. On "Filter Rendering Method" check on Advanced.
6. On "Filter Priority", click "Add Filter".
7. Locate and choose "MPC-Real Video Decoder" before click OK.
8. Then set its "Condition" to Highest.
9. Finally close preferences and play .rm file.
MUCH obliged! Solved my problems!♥
1) The new feature of freely giving users "pop-up" ads whenever we exit GOM Player...not useful. It cheapens your product, but, if it keeps GOM free, I can live with it. How many users even pay attention to the ads? I sure don't.
2) Oh joy, we get more codec issues. A few of the new HD WMV videos will not play and issues an error stating I don't have the necessary codec to play. (VLC, WMP, and others don't have any problems.) I tell it to find the fix, and it does, and then issues the same error next time.
Do keep up the good work. I can't live without many of the features that make GOM the best choice for a media player. One day, you will have a real great product without any issues.
Sad to see such a nice piece of software sink so low.
use vlc and download it from videolan .org. Better than Gomplayer and no spyad ware bundled.
what should I do? I even reinstall the gom player but still the same problem occured. :(
Install K-lite full pack... but still make your gomplayer as your default player.. it should play MP4 without having a problem...
really! so how can i download the codec of the gom player ? because i have a problem on playing the movies on my laptop because my gom player is asking for a codec.. that it is lacking for a codec... pls help .. thank u
