Videolan works GREAT for playing videos that are giving you trouble. As a standard player though, it's not the best. The video quality with Videolan can be downright pathetic at times.

A lot of people don't like to hear it, but the player that gives me the least problems and the best quality is WMP.

Zoom Player for videos, and VideoLan for those "why-the-hell-doesn't-this-shit-play?" videos.

Funny but most of my headaches concerning vid's are in my E-mail's not my browser . So as I said still using winplayer .


I can't stand how they all change your preferences after trying a new one . Thunderbird is bad for that tho .

KLite Mega Codec Pack's MPC player is good.
