Needs Great Media Player!? Anyone?

[Expeto]

Gman, try Miro if you want something like it,

but GOM is also my personal number one, specially for movies.

[kooltilldend]

i can't think of one which has them both

try mediamonkey or tag&rename for the play list part (for music)

while gom, zoom, bs player, mpc (get the codec pack imo), etc for the mkv's

Wow... Miro looks amazing. It'll especially be useful for checking vid updates for various shows. However, I'm not so sure if it plays .mkv, and I think the main focus for that is video files, not just media files in general.

Wait a sec. Someone said something about JetAudio.

Although it isn't as organizable as iTunes or Winamp, it looks pretty decent. The only qualm I think there would be is the "Playlist" organization.

*sigh* I really wish people would work on winamp. Just optimizing it for speed would make it far more appealing.

i have a smae proplem when i play MKV files with KM player or WMP

The essentials is the "library" list and the selection panel on the let side.

Ares has both features, meaning that as a last resort, you could use its Library feature without (auto)connecting to the network or downloading anything. It doesn't seem to be able to play MKVs, meaning it's pretty much useless for you, but I thought I'd mention it.

Ares is a torrent program. I'd rather not use two torrent programs; it's too much of a hassle.

Besides, I'm rather attached to uTorrent.

I have Miro and JetAudio to look over, despite my qualms over them.

Does anyone know why Winamp fails so much in terms of lag and crashing?

The BitTorrent support is extremely basic - it mostly operates on its own network. That and chat.

Neither v5.0 nor v2.92 ever gave me any trouble...

I'd still rather stick with uTorrent. :|

Have you tried uploading 10-50 audio files or 2-5 (movie) avi files?
At that point, the whole program freezes. Soon afterwards, the whole program crashes.

In Winamp? No, I mostly use it as a media player.

[Tv Controls you]

I use winamp with atleast 3,000 tracks in it as my primary flac/mp3 player on my computer.

It is a little slow when first starting as I store my music on another hard drive, but after that initial 3 second delay it is speedy.
Imo, winamp is the best music player/organizer I have ever used.

Itunes (no offense) is bloatware that could never compare to winamp.

As for a media player I use winamp, then if that doesn't work wmp, then if that doesn't work vlc.
And if vlc won't play it.... it's not worth watching lol
