Nice! Infact I see on their website that version 1.0.0 is also being made. :)

I love VLC. It sure beats having to look for the right codecs so that WMP can play different file types, plus it does a good job of playing (and de-interlacing) my high-def TP files that I record from my OTA antenna setup.

Yup, that's such a huge advantage with VLC... you can just get rid of the hassles with installing different codecs. :)

I love VLC! VLC can handle anything I throw at it except .3g2 file format. It plays the video, but no sound. Gotta use SUPER player for those.

KMPlayer is better.

I like VLC, but MPC-HC has replaced VLC as my main video player for a while now.

isn't kmplayer a knockoff of mpc?

i like vlc, mpc and zoom player. i've been using mpc exclusively for a while, but vlc will probably dominate once i leave windows.

if only VLC and MPC had sleeker/far less fugly default interfaces (same would be true for foobar2000 as well) they'd be perfect

Sure but KMPlayer gives you the power to do basically anything with your media player!

Agreed. I always loved VLC, but I tried KMPlayer and it blows VLC out of the water.

Too bad KMPlayer is listed on FFmpeg's Hall of Shame for violating (L)GPL license. Personally I don't want to support such software and developers.

That's a very valid complaint. It's no different than taking Vista, changing the name, and calling it your own.
