The Ambulant Player is a new SMIL player that is developed using a clean SMIL implementation. The GRiNS Player is a commercial niche market player that is used in speciality commercial applications. Although the development teams for both players are (largely) the same, the code base and licensing restrictions for both players are totally different. As a convenience to GRiNS Editor users, the Ambulant Player accepts .grins files as well as .smil files.
