The version of the BSplayer is 1.37 coz its the best
version of BSplayer. The last version WITHOUT spy/adware.

Version history:

-1.0.2
--Portability issue fixed.

-1.0.1
--thebloom from blogger.com found a bug. Fixed now.

-1.0
--Its ready, working. Prolly the last and the first version unless someone finds a MAJOR bug. I betatested this...

The URL is no longer valid.

But I have a copy of the file downloaded a couple of days back, so I tried playing with it.

The settings seems to be written to BSplayer.<username>.xml, which is a problem if you switch machines with a different login name.

This is the same behaviour compared to when I first looked at BSPlayer (search for BSPlayer and look at the comments under non-portable apps). Am I missing something here?

I am soon to update this program to be fully portable.
My apologies.

EDIT ://
Now fully portable.

Damn!
I will continue working on this to make it perfectly portable. Any updates will be posted on this forum...
The primary download link has been disabled due to too many dls.
I have uploaded it to a better place.

Tested version 2.6.4.1073 Free: Portable but not stealth.

P.S. I didn't use this for a long time, I forgot how nice it is.

Hi Folks.
I got the latest BS.Player (2.6.5.1074) and managed to extract it's files.
It does open/run for me, but will not open streaming media (YT ?).

Does anyone here know of a portable-ized version of this or an easy way to make it portable ??
(I do have & use MPC, but would like to try this one further as a means of comparison.)

Thanks.

you have to upgrade to pro version to open streaming media, I think

BS.Player Free 2.6.5.1074 is portable but not stealth.
I failed to open youtube videos and live streams using both free and paid versions. Maybe it's my setup. In their descriptions it says they should be able to open urls.

Thanks:

So how exacty does one go about getting/making the portable, please ??
Do you mean by the above that it is somehow part of the installation ??

Thanks.

I downloaded the fake installer from the homepage.
I started the installation using Sandboxie.
I unchecked the toolbar offering.
I continued the installation of the real setup package (downloaded by the fake installer).
I have chosen "Save settings in installation folder" during setup.
I allowed it to download the "missing" codecs.
I unchecked "Run BS.Player free" and finished the installation (of course it still opened my default browser to show me some web page).
I copied the installation folder outside the sandbox (which I cleaned).
That's it. You can run it from that folder and it will use the codecs it downloaded in its own folder and it will save the settings in its own folder...but it will still modify some registry keys.

Of course, you can do it the hard way, by stopping the installation after the real installer has been downloaded (btw, anyone has a link for the real installer?), then use Universal Extractor to extract the contents, then tweak the settings a little bit and arrange the files as they were supposed to be in the first place, etc...not recommended.

Great Info Joby_toss, thanks !!
I'm not very good with SBIE, but I can use Uninstall Tool to make sure it's all scraped out after copying it elsewhere.

(And I'll PM you a link for the real installer)

Thanks !!
