>> Installation
Once the download completes, locate and launch the installer client.
The installer client should be located in your browser’s default
download directory. To launch the installer, simply double-click the
icon.
After you launch the installer, the GOM Media Player Setup window will appear.
This window is just a welcome screen. Click [Next >] to continue to the next step.
This window displays the GOM Media Player End User License Agreement
(EULA). Please make sure to read this agreement carefully before you
install the software.
After you’ve read the EULA, click the [ I Agree ] button to continue to the next step.
This window lets you choose which components you want to install, and
allows you to set certain options such as file associations.
For most users it is recommended that you don’t make any changes on this window.
When you’re ready to move to the next step, click the [Next >] button.
If you’d like to change the installation directory, you can do so
from this window. For most users we recommend leaving the installation
directory as is.
When you’re ready, click the [Install] button to begin installing GOM Media Player.
The installation should take only a few moments. When completed, this
confirmation window will appear. Click the [Finish] button to close the
GOM Media Player installer.
** During the installation you may be presented with information
and/or offers for other software products. It is entirely up to the user
whether or not to accept / install additional software or services
offered during the GOM Media Player installation process.

>> Configuration Wizard
The Configuration Wizard is a software tool that makes it easy to
change the basic settings for GOM Media Player. The first time you
launch GOM Media Player, the Configuration Wizard will pop up
automatically.
The first window of the Configuration Wizard allows you to choose
your display mode. “Normal Mode” is recommended for most users, while
“High-Quality Mode” is designed for high-performance computers and
displays. If you plan to use GOM Media Player for TV Output, select “TV
Output Mode” for optimal results.
After you choose a display mode, click the [Next >] button to continue.
This window lets you choose basic codec and speaker settings.
GOM’s built-in codecs are designed to improve quality while consuming
fewer system resources. If you aren’t familiar with manually
configuring video and audio codecs, it’s highly recommended that you
leave these two boxes checked.
For speaker settings, choose the option that best represents the speaker setup your computer uses.
To continue, click [Next >]
This window lets you choose which file types to associate with GOM
Media Player (i.e. what kind of files will open with GOM Media Player
automatically when you click them). On this screen all the video types
are divided into groups to make it easier to understand which formats
relate to which type of media.
If you plan to use GOM Media Player as your default media player, we
recommend leaving all of these boxes checked.
Keep in mind that you can adjust your file association settings at
any time after this initial setup (Changing file associations is
explained in more detail
here).
This window lets you set the default subtitle display size and GOM Media Player’s process priority.
Regardless of which option you select here, precise adjustments to
subtitle font size can be made at any time from the GOM Media Player
preferences window (Subtitle preferences are explained in more detail
here).
Process priority refers to the amount of system resources your
computer allocates to GOM Media Player in relation to other system
tasks. Setting priority to “High” will maximize the amount of resources
your computer will allocate to running GOM Media Player to make sure
your videos play as smoothly as possible. However, because GOM Media
Player doesn’t require much processing power to function properly, it’s
usually unnecessary to set the process priority to “High” unless you’re
using a low-performance computer.
Click the [Finish] to close the Configuration Wizard and launch GOM
Media Player (if you don’t want to launch GOM Media Player immediately,
uncheck the box before you click [Finish])
Remember that the Configuration Wizard can be run again at any time
after this initial setup, and can be accessed via GOM Media Player’s
start menu folder (the application is called “GOM Wizard” in this
folder), or from the Preferences window of GOM Media Player itself (push
the [F5] button on your keyboard to open the Preferences window, then
click the [Reset] bottom at the bottom left corner and choose “Start
Configuration Wizard”).
