It would be nice if Mezzo featured integration of the Instant Viewer with the main user interface--at least as an option. It could be implemented as an Instant Viewer pane in the same area as Status, Search, Network and Browser panes.

Selecting a file (one-click) when the Instant Viewer pane is open could immediately display or play the file in this pane using Instant Viewer, Windows Media Player or whatever player Mezzmo currently uses. Double-click could optionally open the file in the external viewer. (I posted a separate wish for this enhancement which currently requires right-click then select Play.)

These improvements would make review/inspection of large numbers of files much easier and avoid the constant Alt-Tab back and forth. The Preview Pane (lower left) is too limited for this purpose--useful only for photos/images and image previews remain tiny even if you expand the pane.

Thank you for the suggestion. We did have a built-in player in Mezzmo at one point and we'll consider adding one back in at some point in the future probably.
