When volume management matters on mobile devices as well! Radiant Media Player 5.3 brings to the player table an innovative and mobile-first approach to volume management. With the recent availability of volume management for Android devices we have created a dedicated touch-oriented volume module which vastly improves the user experience on both mobile and desktop.

Radiant Media Player 5 offers a new way to optimise player loading and start-up by providing optimised builds that pre-pack common features. It is recommended to start using those pre-pack builds when possible. No matter what build you
use, if you request a specific feature that is not available in the selected build by default, the player will attempt to load the required dependency when needed - so if you are not sure what to use, simply include the generic rmp.min.js build.
See our docs for a
list of available builds.
