What is the best Video Player you use?

[imported_krish]

I want to know the best video players out there online.

I use Windows Media Player and VLC PLayer which is very good.

There was this player called Xing player, which I no longer have a copy of. It was very good especially with scratched VCDs.

I use VLC Player its very good and low on resources. I sometimes use Winamp but it at times gets too resource intesive. There is another one which is jus like winAmp but more light-weight and can use Winamp plugins.I dont remember the name.

I use Windows Mediaplayer 10, it works fine.

Yeah, same here. I'm not to picky and Windows Media Player gets the job done. How many media players are there out there anyway? Seems like most people I know just use Windows.

DivX is the best!! It makes the video clear and is really efficient performance wise. And its free!

Yes, DivX is the best. I don't know wheteher its really free though, because it says that I only have a 6 month trial period.

I like Windows Media Player 10 too; it can play all kind of video formats.

Windows Media is really reliable for video, so I just use that. As for music though, I use Winamp.

I think I'm using Windows Media Player 9. I'm probably not going to update it, because the newer the program, it usually gets more bulky.

I find Media Player to be very bulky; it takes a long time to load up as well.

I prefer the Alternate Media Player, it's a lighter version.

to view video files or DVDs from a DVD drive? I don't have a drive, but I use WinAmp for my vid files

Winamp doesnt play video.. ?? :?

I use Power DVD, Its a great program for playing DVD's as well as any mpegs, avi's etc.

It may seem like Winamp is predominantly a music player, but it can play video files, too.

[pyowomaniac]

Windows Media Player is the best for me. Real Player always has some type of code error. I don't have time for that.

[deuce]

Real Player is even bulkier RAM-wise than Media Player.

[pyowomaniac]

How did you find that out? That's even more of a reason for me not to use Real Player. It has limited use.

[compnut]

I use both Media Player and RealPlayer, but I think I prefer Media Player over the two. The quality of sound and the different options are appealing to me. In Media Player, you can also burn music directly to a CD without using a burning software.

[jess]

Neither of those.
I use Quicktime Alternative, plays pretty much all media files without the worry of extra overheads that tend to really slow this type of software down.

I said goodbye to Real Player and WMP ages ago, and goodbye to all their ads and commercials too

[zeroth]

I use Winamp for playing my videos, seems to work fast and well.

[dave7]

I use Windows Media Player for playing my video files.

[zemus]

Winamp works for most videos, but sometimes I try windows media player if it doesn't work with winamp.

[Faucet]

I use media player classic and divx. Divx is to have the newest codecs.

[imported_chris]

Windows Media Player and Winamp are what I use for video players.

[mike17]

I use Winamp for all my video playing needs, and also quicktime and real player if needed.
