Notable features
BS.Player comes loaded with a variety of tools. Here are a few worth mentioning:
- Equalizer: you get a built-in equalizer for your media to adjust the bass and treble as you like
- Subtitles: BS.Player offers excellent subtitle management. With options to adjust font size, style, position, background, and search for online subtitles, the functionality is highly customizable
- Skins: The player includes several built-in skins to customize the user interface

A fragmented interface
The application has an intriguing user interface, to say the least. When you play audio or video, it opens in two different windows; one is the window in which the file is playing, and the other holds all the player options and controls. While some users may prefer it this way, modern players have largely moved to a single-window layout to keep things simple.
A capable option despite the aging design
BS.Player is a capable multimedia player that comes with plenty of supported file formats and codecs. You will not have any complaints from that department. The user interface does look quite dated, but if you can make peace with that, there are no other shortcomings here.
