This pack is designed to bring a Windows XP CD with SP2 integrated fully up to date with all of the latest hotfixes released by Microsoft since SP2´s release. It accomplishes this task via direct integration, where files on the CD are directly overwritten by the updated files. This method has numerous advantages over other integration techniques:

1. Since the files are being directly overwritten on the CD, there is no period of vulnerability between when the files are copied to the hard drive and the hotfixes are run. This guarantees maximum stability and security.
2. All necessary registry entries needed by Windows Update, QFECheck, and Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer are imported during Windows setup, meaning that the integration is transparent to Windows.
3. Security Catalogs necessary for Windows File Protection to recognize the updated files as digitally signed are installed, once again ensuring maximum transparency to Windows.
4. Since the updated files are being directly overwritten on the CD, this pack has the minimum possible amount of overhead associated with integrating hotfixes in comparison to other methods - both in space used on the CD and in Windows installation time.
5. This pack works regardless of whether or not the Windows installation is unattended

SMPlayer, is a new multimedia player. It uses the award-winning MPlayer as engine, so it´s able to play the most known video & audio formats without the need of external codecs: avi, mkv, ogm, mpeg, vob, 3gp, asf, mov, wmv, mp3, ogg… You can also play DVD discs and Internet streams.

One of the most interesting features of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play. So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave… don´t worry, when you open that movie again it will resume at the same point you left it, and with the same settings: audio track, subtitles, volume…

Other additional interesting features:

* Audio track switching. You can choose the audio track you want to listen. Works with avi and mkv. And of course with DVDs.
* Seeking by mouse wheel. You can use your mouse wheel to go forward or backward in the video.
* Video equalizer, allows you to adjust the brightness, contrast, hue, saturation and gamma of the video image.
* Multiple speed playback. You can play at 2X, 4X… and even in slow motion.
* Filters. Several filters are available: deinterlace, postprocessing, denoise… and even a karaoke filter (voice removal).
* Audio and subtitles delay adjustment. Allows you to sync audio and subtitles.
* Advanced options, such as selecting a demuxer or video & audio codecs.
* Playlist. Allows you to enqueue several files to be played one after each other. Autorepeat and shuffle supported too.
* Preferences dialog. You can easily configure every option of SMPlayer by using a nice preferences dialog.
* Translations: SMPlayer is fully translated into Spanish and German.
* It´s multiplatform. Binaries available for Windows and Linux.
* Free. Totally free. No shareware, no adware, no spyware… Free and opensource. The source code of SMPlayer is available. You can download it, compile it, modify it… SMPlayer is under the GPL license.

And this is just the beginning. In the future SMPlayer will have features hardly available in other players. But be patience. Development of SMPlayer started just a very few months ago. SMPlayer is alpha software. There are still some basic features missing, like a bookmark or support for audio CDs. It also can contain bugs. But I hope is stable enough for daily use. Already implemented features should work. But if you find a bug report it! ;-)
