[edit]History
The original KMPlayer logo
The KMPlayer logo, effective 19 March 2012
K-Multimedia Player was originally developed by Kang Young-Huee and was first released on 1 October 2002.[1] On 5 March 2008, The KMPlayer's Forum announced that the KMPlayer had been acquired by Pandora TV (a Korean streaming video company) in August 2007.[4]
[edit]Naming
K-Multimedia Player is known under several names. In version 3.0.0.1438,[5] the player is labeled both KMPlayer and KMP on its main user interface. The About page refers to it as "The KMPlayer Professional Media Player" and "The KMPlayer". The version page refers to it as "KMPlayer". The license page says[6]:
Introduction of KMP K-MultimediaPlayer (Hereinafter, referred to as KMP) : KMP is a freeware. Its full name is K-Multimedia Player. But, it is also called as KMP, KMPlayer, KMP Player or kmp player.
The player is distributed on international download sites under the names "The KMPlayer"[7] and "KMPlayer".[8] Its official forums refer to it as "The KMPlayer",[9] while its PandoraTV site calls it "KMPlayer".[10]
[edit]Features
The player handles a wide range of audio, video and subtitles formats and allows one to capture audio, video, and screenshots. It provides both internal and external filters with a fully controlled environment in terms of connections to other splitters, decoders, audio/video transform filters and renderers without grappling with the DirectShow merit system (a system of selecting and prioritizing codecs across the entire Windows operating system[11]). Internal filters are not registered into the system's registry to prevent the operating system from confusing system filters with K-Multimedia Player's filters.
The player can set many audio and video effects, slow down or increase playback speed, select parts of a video as favorites, do various A-B repeats, remap the keys of remote interface for HTPC including overlay screen controls, and change a skin dynamically depending on a media type playing. KMP is completely customizable thanks to a wide selection of skins and color schemes, as well extensive the configuration options.[12]
