[jonnyw86]

or if u jus wanna discuss the media players which u like and dislike then please do so here

[msl]

hmmm well in the past i have used real player and windows media play but now i use winamp or vlc player for some video types

[Artics]

vlc is the most useful media player i think..it can even fix broken avi files

[ricksy11]

i find vlc capable of playing any movie file, with no skipping.
the most versitile player.

[Becci]

I used to use Windows Media Player but it was kind of rubbish, not playing all files etc, so now I use Real Player :)

[Richard]

Windows media player.

[Becci]

I love your new sig Richard it's dead good :)

[Andrew]

i use vlc

[Gonzie]

vlc, quicktime and iTunes

[pelekis31]

windows media pleyer and quick time player .wmp lately is not working propetly lots or restarts

[TAG]

I use iTunes for music, athlough am told WinAmp is a lot better. I've had quite a few problems with iTunes actually, it regularly causes my system to crash (I say regularly, perhaps once a month, but that's bad enough I'd say).

I use VLC for videos, purely because it plays pretty much anything, and is of course freeware.

[LewisMH]

I use Windows Media Player for Lost, Prison Break etc. Although I use VLC sometimes when WMP has trouble playing them.

[misterzeb]

wmp is good but I like winamp too.

[shii]

I'm using VLC player on my mac and its absolutely horrible. It crashes all the time and displays the same error for a file I'm not even playing (and it says to disable it but even if you click it, it doesn't go away...) and I have yet to find an alternative. On my pc, vlc is much better but I like using winamp.

[Peter]

I use DivX, as it has a useful compact mode, although occasionally the sound goes out of synch with the picture, however that's fixed easily by pressing rewind and then play in quick succession.
For music I use iTunes, as I have an iPod, and am too lazy to use a different player to listen and to update my ipod with. Also it has the lost podcasts streamed to it (yes I'm sad) (yes, I also know there are plugins for WMP and winamp to update iPods, however, they don't seem to work with mine (3g mini).)

[Aaron]

i use windows media player/itunes to listen to my music.... maily WMP though

and i use VLC to watch my tv episodes... its the best one by far for the avi files

[andrewl]

I am using Windows Media 11 and itunes. Both are quite cool products.

[Jonny]

windows media player 11 ...its the best 1

[lelo]

I use the DivX player

[antwn]

itunes and VLCmedia player for avi files. The latter saves you from any trouble with codecs.

[chris12]

i use windows media player for video's etc and i use Sony's Sonic Stage for my music

[karmakarma00]

I use Winamp. It's just simple to use, I guess.

[Steelman917]

It depends on what I am watching but I normally tend to stick with DivX, but I also use Windows player and real player on occasion.

[danny15]

Wanna use medial player 11 for my music files etc... but for watching dvd's videos dl's n that i use DivX ... works a treat !!

[injection]

Mainly Windows Media Player, but if i ever watch DVDs, i watch them on vlc, WMP usually locks them! :(

[Velo]

Real player for videos and winamp for music.

[Naka25]

Windows media player most of all, best interface IMO and have always used this media player.

[sard]

BsPlayer here! ;D

[Adair]

VLC media player works for eveything.

[danzaman123]

To watch things like Lost and Heroes I use WMP classic, to listen to music I use iTunes :).

Dan
:D

[mattbme]

I use windows media player 11 as of now

[addz156]

I always use media player classic..

[smithkane]

I use Divx player as it blacks out everything apart from the movie window. However, even tho I have a reasonably high end lap-top, there is occasional jerkyness to the picture, very apparent in scenes with lots of movement, can anyone give any help to solve this? Thanks

[Joe Dark]

WMP for videos and individual tracks and iTunes for albums

[Lozenger]

I use the new Windows Media Player 11 for nearly everything, apart from when i'm missing codecs which is when VLC player comes in handy. I think the sleek new design of WMP is really good and is certainly an improvement on the old colour style :D

[Whittal]

I'm using VLC player on my mac and its absolutely horrible. It crashes all the time and displays the same error for a file I'm not even playing

I had the same problems on my Mac until i got the newer version of VLC. It comes up with an error every now and then but it doesn't effect the video playing.

[DarthSnail]

Media Player Classic. A modern day version of the old 6.4 media player that can play pretty much anything including Quicktime.

[reye]

Mediaplayer classic, simply the best ;)
with plugin - if necesarry- can play anything, also adjust subtitles 'in screen', ...
I love it!

VLC sucks thats why!!

[Vash]

[wonton]

vlc player
WMP
winamp
quicktime

[gunit4life]

audio-itunes + windows media 11
Video-VLC

[Lancelot]

itunes is by far my favourite media player, coupled with the fact i am on a university network so i get itunes shared, and can listen to every1 elses music as well!!

[beatthebullet]

I used to use windows media and real player but now I use VLC for all downloaded videos and itunes for music!!!

[Henz n Rach]

Videos on Media player, Music on itunes.

[foreverlost]

I use VLC because of all the spyware in Real player:o

[mtlee]

real player for real..vlc for everything else..

[bundred]

i just use meduia player and get all the codecs

[danny15]

got media player 11, how do u update the codecs ?

[allj]

i prefer bs player,it s easy to use for any media files!

[raymond]

Not sure if this counts but running all my stuff off the Rhapsody N35 NDAS Media Player..

[Deadlyscorpion]

I use winamp for my music, Windows Media Player for my videos, sometimes Realplayer, but I just got VLC, taking it for a test drive for a while.

[Boombox]

VLC player is probably the best around. That or Media player classic. They play just about everything.

[iaomo]

I like Windows Media Player...

[iaomo]

ooh and Yahoo Music Player, I quite like it.

[Removedaccount]

Music and podcasts in itunes.
AVI's in Media Player (10, I'm not gonna upgrade it)
MP4s in Quicktime
Also Divx player sometimes.

I absolutely hate Real Player with a passion. The only problem is I've got AOL on my computer so if I uninstall Real then everytime I use AOL it reinstalls it. When I switch to mac I'm not gonna bother with AOL, I'll just use the website to read my emails lol

[Jenny]

I use VLC media player, sometimes PowerDVD.

I love the simpleness of those two programs, I can't stand WMP to play videos. :(

[aslam85]

Well i like WMP11, its cool and by having nero ultr edition install with nero
show time, WMP gets most of the codecs you with need, apart from that for dvd i gota use Power DVD for panscan.

Havent yet tried VLC player though but seems to be metioned alot, so def gona
download it.

[Ikey]

I watch all my TV shows on VLC player. its pretty good.

[huncks45]

For audio, I use windows media player 11.But for playing videos, media player classic is the best for me. Just add proper codec and any video format are easily played.

[P.B.S]

I'm still addicted to the ol' good media player 6.4 (mplayer2.exe, still on the 2k and XP computers)

[liuz]

i use real player for all my rmvb files and vlc player for avi files. both works fine with me :D

[corvenus]

i use quicktime with perian plugin for avi files...real player for rmvb, and vlc for anything else!

[bpdelaney]

I had used wmp for past couple of years.. recently switched to real player

[tomso]

I got used to BS player. Its easy to use.

[asienka]

I'm using Winamp currently, sometimes Vlc player too but I can't get subtitles on VLC- it stops showing right subtitles after 2 minutes of playing a movie ???

[andy215]

I use windows media player 11 because it' gd

[styzzi]

i use media player for everything thats able to be played and vlc for the rest. WinDVD or PowerDVD as well once in a while but never used that over tuned divx player.

[skellington]

Like a lot of people here, I use VLC. It's light, and you can load subtitles. Perfect!

[pocoyo]

hey, i use real player 2 watch all my shows. i have no problem watchin anything i download on there. i think its because i download an xp codec pack. if any1 wants a link 2 this let me know if ur havin problems e.t.c.
or if u jus wanna discuss the media players which u like and dislike then please do so here


hi! do you have the free player or have you paid for yours?

[nancykon]

i use power dvd to watch all video files (add the codecs packet and it plays subtitles too )and itunes for my music.

[georgecockett]

I use Windows media player, switched around for bit, but the new wmp is fine when coupled with the xp dix encoder pack which is free, just search on google. Also d/l audio encoders, and now i've never had a file that wont play with sound.

[emoloz]

iTunes count if not wmp.

[kellolio]

I use Windows Media Player, seems to be much better when running on Windows Vista

[gattard]

VLC is the best media player

[Daniel]

iTunes is the best for music and organisation, obv..primarily for the iPod itself, but great all around :)

[minimern999]

I find that I have no choice but to use real player when I download shows...great quality

[99turtol]

VLC for me too. Seems Windows Media Player hasnt got all the codecs not has divx, especailly for DVD's

[vincentyo2]

windows media player with all codecs installed

[Mazza101]

I use DivX player for my videos and iTunes for my music.

[kylepsp]

i am on vista and the media player is horribly out of sync so i use either media player classic or vlc.
