Im going to review the best video players i ever used!
  BsPlayer is a free video player, i really like this one, has a milliion skins and options like: -Resolution changing -Multilingual -Fully skinnable - Any shape, transparent skins... -Display subtitles - Support custom subtitles position, color, font, transparency,... -And More... Supported formats: Video: avi, mpeg 1, mpeg 2, xvid, divx, 3ivx, ogg, ogm, matroska, asf, wmv etc Audio: wav, mp2, mp3, ogg etc Images: jpeg, gif, bmp (DirectX 9 required) Link: http://bsplayer.com/index.php?p=about&PHPS...a2f4e4dfe1bf36b  QuickTime its free too, made by apple, plays videos and pictures! i dont like him, its to boring. and dont have much plugins and skins like bsplayer.  Supported formats: Images: BMP, GIF, JPEG, PICT, PNG, SGI, TIFF, Adobe Photoshop, e FlashPix. Video: MPEG-1, MPEG-2(1), MPEG-4, H.264, 3GPP & 3GPP2, And dozens more… Audio: AAC, MP3,... Link: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/player/specs.html  RealPlayer is the ''Universal Player''. It plays almost everything, and thousand of websites requires him to play stream movies. Supported formats: Can play QuickTime, Windows Media, MPEG audio/video, DVDs, VCDs and store-bought or home-made CD-ROMS. Link: http://www.real.com/moreinfo/playerplus_fe...e&pageregion=A1  DivX is the most famous compression format in the web, so to play divx files you will need a divx player, this one is the original, but others players run divx too, like bsplayer. Its good to have this version, because than you will have all the divx codecs installed on your computer. But you can also download a codec pack with it. Link: http://www.divx.com/divx/play/  PowerDVD is the best player for DVDs, full of options, you can configure your video settings, audio settings, has High-Definition Audio, Subtitle, Language and Angle Switching, Resume playback and a lot more. I recommend you to use this one if you like to watch dvds in your computer. Link: http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/products/main_1_ENU.html Do you like other? Comment! Enjoy!  i dont know if this is the right place to put this. if not, please move. Thanks. This post has been edited by Find3r: Mar 27 2006, 10:48 PM |

Media Player Classic is a player with great performance. It doesn't have any pretty skins, but it's got lots more features than Real, QuickTime, and possibly all the other players you've mentioned. Oh, and it's not released by Microsoft. It doesn't look anything like the current Windows Media Player.
I've tried BsPlayer before, but it was so slow that it made the video out of sync, and eventually crashed. |

I can't believe you didn't include VLC Media Player. It is one of the best out there, and you can chck it out at:

i heard about a player that sits just above the taskbar (it's like a bar above the taskbar) and it supports all formats. I forgot the name, if anyone knows it please tell me.

VLC is also my personal favourite, it runs on all major operating systems and it's a lite weight media player.

I like Microsoft Media the best, although I still need divx codec to play my files. It could be that I am used to the navigation and I love all the features.

Media Player Classic gets my vote. It's OpenSource and released under the GPL. Also lots of features and it's regularly updated. It's also one of the smallest media players around. Fast and lite - that's what I like.
I highly recommend having it on your machine. |
