Option to turn all the media player functionality off and only enable the reader parts
I would really like an option to turn all the mediaplayer functionality off and only enable the newsreader functionality. Even though you got a nice mediaplayer there, I will never watch anything with it because I got a nice TV setup in my living room. But the media player functionality like the playlists always popping in front of me are kinda annoying.
Can you implement an option to turn all the media player functionality off? And only have a nice and lean usenet reader?

This option is available starting with BinTube Usenet Reader version 3.0.5.0.

BlueEyes, I know this is late because the issue the fix has been made. But I wanted to comment that for some of us the media player funtionality is useful. My main gaming PC is in my living room hooked up to a 50inch plasma HDTV, so the ability to stream HD video content through Bintube's reader onto my TV rocks, and saves a lot of time. You should try it.

In my opinion your BinTube Newsreader together with your Usenet service make a hell of a good combo. Of course I could always find a different newsreader, even a free one. But than the only thing that is really unique to your service is gone. That one feature that distinguish you from the other newsgroup providers and what really makes you unique is your newsreader. That only thing that really bothers me is the media player functionality because it uses space and remains useless on my computer and it is useless in general if you are downloading HD Material and you have a nice setup in the living room for it.

I guess I need more people to support this idea :-) BTW I am still using my nice HD TV setup instead of the computer screen to play my media files ;-)
