Decent looking media player, might give it a better rating once it's more mature, but it's not all that useful as of yet.

Many of the buttons don't do anything because the features aren't implemented yet.

It crashes a lot. I had to open it and close it without clicking anything else before it would run without crashing.

The default priority settings boggle me, why would the GUI thread have normal priority and decoder threads get idle priority? Had skipping sound with the defaults.

It has a much bigger memory footprint than most players, and doesn't trim it when it's minimized to the tray.

The skin is kind of cluttered and disorganized, but I'm not really a fan of free form UI's to begin with.

It did not however mess with my file associations.

Gonna stick with XMPlay still.

Well, I gave this a whirl and while the interface is nice and color customizable, it is a bit big and awkward for me. Also, the player committed one of the cardinal sins of media players, it wiped my pre-existing file associations. So, even though fennec had not taken them to itself, it took them from my present audio player and (for some reason) from my video player.
