## Features[edit]

### Layout[edit]

Elmedia Player makes heavy use of the macOS Menu Bar, which provides access to most of its functions. The rest is accomplished with a seek bar, which can optionally display preview thumbnails, and a button array for volume control, pausing and switching between tracks. Most menu items have an assigned hotkey.

### Playback[edit]

Media files can be played normally, or with various adjustments. This includes modified playback speed, audio equalization and synchronization, and configurable brightness, contrast and saturation. Bookmarks can be created for a particular file.

### Streaming[edit]

DLNA, AirPlay 2[4] and Google Cast protocols are supported. When connected, the player can transmit video and audio, and initiate screen mirroring sessions. Streaming compatibility options are present, such as subtitle encoding.[5]

### Exported files[edit]

Elmedia Player produces three types of media files. The list consists of .swf files[6] (converted from Projector EXEs), .m3u playlists and .srt subtitles (only for the tracks that have been downloaded on OpenSubtitles).[7][8]
