Which media player do you use to play your movies and which is the best?
Bs player is the best althohg you cant play mpeg2 on it. Videolan is also very good. Got too www.dvdrhelp.com you can downlaod it all form there
Sorry to say it but WMP for XP. In full screen I can jump to different parts of a movie and it has a good layout. Drawback is I can't use QT or Real Alt.
Jet Audio can playback all formats include everything in codec pack, QT, and Real but I don't like the interface as well. It's a good all for one solution though.
mplayer is actually the best but it was written under linux. There are windows versions but there're not stable yet imho. The old 6.4 version of Windows Media Player is a classic. Probably best to stay away from the divx player because it is buggy.
Power DVD 5 is the best, supports everything!
But my faav is WMP9
;) I would have to say Zoom Player Pro.....
WMP9 for xp
I agree with Busyman and disagree. I think Jet Audio has a great and simple interface. It's by FAR the best in my opinion, for every type of file. It's gat a great simple album selector for mp3's, plus its got a cool lottle remote control and recon bar as well, and for the movies, the hot key buttons are greatly laid out. I mean for pause and play---the spacebar. It's big and right there, no more looking for that damn "p" on the keyboard in the dark when watching a porno. :D Anyway JEt Audio is my recommendation, though it's a larger size download than the others, it doen'st use your comps resources as well, no more than wmp 9. It's the only player you will need.
None for me at the mo cus i cant get any to work :rolleyes:
PowerDVD is a good one tho, i used to use it alot before.
B) Has anybody tried EO Video? This program converts all formats and plays all, also.
Never heard of it but I am looking for that perfect player. Jetaudio is the closest
i like WinDVD, but it has probs playing certain wmv files (i think mainly the ones that are encoded with the old ms mp4 beta codecs) on my comp, so i use WMP9. can't say i have any complaints.
i use BSPlayer if i need to view a subtitle file over a foreign movie.
winDVD has preprocessing filters that play dvds well but it really wasn't designed to play files
BS player is crap, you need to find codecs, and the codecs it comes with conflict with encoders/decoders you already have.
For MP3 playing and MP3 playlist playing, as well as playing "store-bought" music CDs on your CD-Rom, Windows Media Player 9 is best.
For playing "store-bought" movie DVDs on your DVD-Rom, go with Power DVD.
For playing MPEG-1, MPEG-2, Xvid, DivX, I'm not sure what player works best. Obviously one that can use codecs you already have (given to you from Nero, Nimo, KaZaA, etc.)
Can someone post a link for Jetaudio pls. I'm looking for a good media player myself, I bounce back and fourth between VideoLan and WMP and I'm looking for something else.
i like the divx player, i dont know why..i guess because it has a widescreen format to it!
Do some research.
ex.
GO TO JETAUDIO'S WEBSITE
LOOK FOR THE LATEST VERSION OF THE PLAYER
SEARCH AND DL IT ON KAZAA LITE
:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:
DUHHHH BIG BANK
I guess BSPlayer is my best, but then again you have to delete every codes you already have first in order to make BSPlayer play in every films. B)
DIVX is good too, but some how it can't play XVID and I just seem to like it :blink:
What about WMP?!? Damn! you just can't uninstall them :angry: Even I didn't use it anymore it still there when my stupid friend(who didn't know shit about computer) want to play some movie in a shitty lag quality.
how many times are people going to say this?Quote:

the reason DivX Player doesn't "like" Xvid is because DivX Player only plays DivX. XviD is not DivX. end of story.
