Thank you for the Mirillis Christmas giveaway and for giving us this opportunity to write some feedbacks to Mirillis.
Mirillis has become quite successful in the video recording segment nowadays. With regard to streaming and real-time recording, Mirillis Action! is known to all game players. Time-Shift recording is quite convenient and 120fps recording can create fantastic slow-mo effects. I hope higher fps would be supported in the future development of Action!. Bandicam has also supported up to 144fps. Besides, it would be great if Action! could bring more audio and video codec options to users in the future.
On the other hand, it is obvious that the competition has been intense on the media player market. However, I still think Mirillis Splash! is a very promising product. Its GPU accelerated decoding is very good and it has a really nice image post-processing engine - Picture², to make Splash! come out on top: Light Boost, Detail Boost and Motion² video improvement features are quite unique and powerful. Lots of video players offer brightness, contrast and saturation adjustments but their performance is inferior to that of Picture² technology. In comparison, the Picture² technology can make the colors in a video look more vibrant and can bring more details without over-exposure. PowerDVD has a similar video enhanced feature - TrueTheater Enhancer, but it has some limitations as well. In general, it needs more system resource and it has a higher impact on the computer performance when enabled. Secondly, it only supports up to 1080p. Therefore, I wish Mirillis could keep the active and continuous development of Splash! in the future and I’d like to see some new exciting features to come:
- Zooming video playback: allows users to use mouse to select some part of the video and zoom with a range of magnifications
- Support of more aspect ratios and allow users to use custom aspect ratios
- Better support of Light Boost, Detail Boost and Motion² for 4k & 8k
- Support for more audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and Dolby TrueHD etc.
- Support for HDR and HEVC
