I need a Media Player

[bob4432]

i would like to find a media player, other than wmp that plays dvd, dvds that are in iso format, dvix, xvid, rm, avi, mov and just about any other media file out there along with mp3 and aac with the ability to add plugins for ogg, etc.

free would be nice too

Here's a few that you can check out; dunno if they will do everything you want though.

VLC.
BS Player.
Moonlight Player.
Daemon Tools (for mounting images).

Agreed with Daemon tools for mounting images.
And gonna throw in Media Player Classic for everything else http://www.divx-digest.com/software/media_player_classic.html

Oops, yes, i forget to mention MP Classic. That's another good one.

Oh, & if you want to play embedded Quicktime streams without Quicktime, look for Quicktime alternative. Works beautifully.

media player classic is good, but VLC plays everything, and you don't even need to mount images, just point it to the .bin file

Another vote for vlc, I use bsplayer for most tasks but vlc for everything that doesnt work in bs.

 

[bob4432]

thanks peeps, trying it out and it seems to work excellent

 

[kermalou]

vlc

Yeah but VLC and MPC aren't really good at playing music. You might want to try out J.River Media Center. A very nice all in 1 program. Or just combine 1 music player and 1 video player. I think that's what most people do.

thanks, i guess i could just do 1 music player and 1 video player, much better than a seperate mov, avi, wmv, rm, divx, xvid player

jetAudio plays almost anything.
