RE: Favorite Video Player - complex response

I'm somewhat neutral on this. As long as I have all the proper codecs installed (customized) I really have no preference. However, I tend to lean towards Windows Media Player. If I have a corrupt file that won't play, or have multi-languages/sub-titles not muxed properly, I use VLC (great for multiple options). Recently though, for some reason my avi files (xvid encoded) have been stuttering quite a bit. Must be some codec conflicts. So I've been using PowerDVD 8.0 from CyberLink to play my xvid encoded files. . I'm not their biggest fan, but lately it's been working for me. My DivX player has been having some problems. Prior to those issues, I'd been using my DivX player for most media.

My favorite

I say KMP (K media player) is the best. Easy to use, easy to manage, AND free.

I think

Definately YouTube. IGN has too many ads, gametrailers doesn't work on my Mac, and everything else doesn't even matter.

My favorite Video Player

My favorite Vido Player is JetAudio . It is magnificent .It supports all available formats including the RealMedia format.It has a very good video quality.
I have known QuickTime for three years.It has never played any video in my PC.I tried it in Windows XP and Windows Vista and I have never be able to see or hear something in it.
JetAudio also supports FLV Format (Flash Video) and had a little impact on the system.It also provides superb audio quality.All with an amazing Graphical Interface.

Thanks

My favorite video player

In spite of my very slow type of Internet connection I found that DivX is the best.
It has the best ever pictures & movies, and I really enjoy watching its contents.

The KMplayer

The KMplayer it's by far the best media player I've tested, and I have tried a lot of players...
It have thousands of options for handling video, read almost every format out there, and don't consume any resources...
I think that rigth now, it's the best player, by far... check it out in the wiki:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_KMPlayer

Since it's a korean player, the main website (www.kmplayer.com) it's in their languaje, so use this dir instead..

Snapshot

I think that by adding a "Snapshot" option to the DIVX viewer would
be of great value. It would enable people to take a snapshot of the
film being used and then using the picture as the background on
a disk lable. This would nicely finish off the film and disk for the library.

Sub-Titles and Front Page (menu)

Titles have to be switched on manually from right-clik on DivX player...Front Page (menu) from DivX Author does not convey upon download.

Otherwise, pretty damn cool gadget !

Other device

I use my phillips dvd/divx player like crazy, every day I use it to watch hours of old converted dvds on a single disc! I love this divx codec and its products. Soon enough i will be using my PS3 to play all my media off its hard drisk and all my old dvd medias too, and I look forward to putting all my catalogs of movies and TV shows onto blu-ray discs.

DivX Player

I would probably use the DivX Player more often if it had a couple of slow-motion options added to the viewing drop down.
