Thread: What media player do you use?

I am using vlc player and gom player and found both are light and almost plays all formats in audio and videos. I wonder is there any other better or even lighter media players available, which is free too, kindly suggest it here.

in my opinion i like the i-tunes media player...............it is very easy to use and ofcourse real player 11

Wow!

i use k-lite codec pack
which used media player classic but is able to play most of the formats

VLC...look no further...it's small, cute and very easy to use. get it right now if you haven't already!

i m using GOM player and its a good one... as it can play almost all formats... and that is too with lot many good options which are not there in VLC

Which Media Player do you use the most ?


I use Windows Media Player 11 and GOM player . I also have many other Media players .But dont use them much .

I find Windows Media Player 11 's visualizations very good .... so i use it for playing audio songs and files.
But i find that it has limited Codecs and does not play many files[their codecs]

I find GOM player excellent for Playing Movies and videos .But not so good for audios.
And GOMs has a good collection of skins

If you want a Universal codec player then VLC is the answer as it plays the largest no of Codecs among media players.

Real Player is good but it has Adware and crapware that once installed can never be removed , even after uninstalling Real player it self so dont use it .

Winamp and power DVD come in handy sometimes .

I always use GOM player. It's more compilable to the video codecs than any other media player. I have tried Windows Media Player 11, Zoom Player Pro, Windows Media Player Classic, Ace Media Player, Winamp, Real Media Player, Quick Time, M Player, Total Video Player, CS Player, VLC Media Player and many others. But none of them was as good as GOM player. But I also like Windows Media Player 11 too.

GOM player is faster to load compared to other I have tried and have less bugs/errors. I use K-Lite Mega Codec Pack with it.

This is also a poll ..... you can Vote !

I use VLC player (Video) & Winamp (Audio).
Next I use is Media player classic. Apart from this I dont use any other player.
I hardly use Windows Media Player 11. GOM player,hearing for the 1st time.
Hows this GOM player?

my music player is not added in this

I've used these programs for a long time without much problems

Media Player Classic Homecinema - Link (A/V Player)
ffdshow - Link (All-in-one codec)
foobar2000 - Link (Advanced audio player)

Also there is Real Alternative if you just want the RealMedia codecs without having to install RealPlayer.

If all the above don't work, I use mplayer

Yes Real Alternative olso known as Media player classic ... but you can combine it with GOM as it also doubles up as a codec..

If you cannot find ur media player post it like Cable Guy did

If you use GOM Player, you wont use any other media player for watching movies or videos.

BTW: VLC is available for Linux but i really don't use that as totem is doing all the work for me have all the codec's installed for totem

Mostly VLC and sometimes PowerDVD. I also have WinDVD and Windows Media Player is by default.

I just use Gom and Kmplayer.
with ffdshow mpeg codec installed i can play any media file on my system with the above mentioned players.
