Miro Media Player Gets an Overhaul
,----[ Quote ]
| I still reach for VLC Media Player when I want an open source player that I
| know will handle almost any video file format that I throw at it. It's out in
| a much overhauled new version as well, and is particularly good for
| broadcasting video content online. However, the community behind Miro has
| wisely focused it on playing and organizing video and audio content from all
| around the web, especially videocasts and podcasts. It really shines at that,
| especially this new version.

| Those behind the open source Internet video player Miro have launched a new
| adoption system! No, you won't be adopting babies or kittens, or even polar
| bears in Antarctica—instead, users can "adopt" a line of source code from
| Miro for $4 in order to help support the continued development of the

Mini Review: Miro 2.0
,----[ Quote ]
| I like Miro quite a bit. It does a decent job of pulling together the
| functionality of a lot of separate application and combining them into a
| media center with a clean UI.
|
| A few additions, perhaps collected in an "Advanced" tab under Options would
| allow the user to control database updating, add/edit/delete search engine
| sites, select an external player application, control browser privacy, etc.

Announcing Miro 1.2 - A Major Update
,----[ Quote ]
| We’ve just released a major update to Miro, version 1.2.
`----
http://www.getmiro.com/blog/2008/03/announcing-miro-12-a-major-update/
There are two major improvements in this update.
,----[ Quote ]
| First, we have dramatically improved performance for torrent downloading and
| we offer more settings and control (thanks to libtorrent). With this update,
| Miro is truly a powerhouse for torrent feeds, if I do say so myself. Torrents
| are still a difficult and mysterious technology for many users, despite the
| huge bandwidth savings they provide to publishers. We aim to make your
| torrent experience seamless at worst and invisible at best.

Miro (Democracy Player) for Linux Reviewed
,----[ Quote ]
| At the end of the day, Miro has been one of my favorite methods of
| downloading, maintaining and enjoying user created content. It's been a
| source of joy and discovery for me personally, and I only wish to see them
| gain a better focus on their future direction. Remember, non-profits can
| indeed, generate a profit. It's just a matter of reinvesting those funds into
| the project to better see through the mission of the group as a whole.
