danksy Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 I have all sorts of formats of video, ranging from wma to divx format and have yet found a player with all the correct codecs installed to play them all without any problems. Any suggestions? I currently use a several applications but it would be nice just to be able to rely on one application doing the whole lot!! I currently use PowerDVD, Windows Media Player, Real Player, InfraView. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aal234 Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 give vlc a try (do a google for it can't remember the url) plays most stuff pretty well. Its even bright enough to know what to do with cue and bin files from isos for vcds. Bit more stable than media player as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilB Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 Great stuff! I've been after another player for a few weeks as WMP10 has been playing silly buggers and refusing to play anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
