looking to dl a new media player for music and vids on the computer. Any recommendations? I used to be a big fan of winamp for music, is it still good? How bout video player?

t3t4delsol · 06-07-2008, 09:14 PM

windows media player for everything

YBLEGAL · 06-07-2008, 09:15 PM

I like winamp for music. Or windows media player 10. Winamp has better randomization and playlist/library options IMO. And winamp has better sound quality and options. For downloaded movies and video, Windows Media Player Classic is great. Used to come with kazaa. Plays just about any codec you throw at it.

endlesszeal · 06-07-2008, 11:21 PM

winamp is still a stand-by for music. for video, windows media player with cccp codec pack will play anything you throw it minus .flv files and some odd ones. if that fails, VLC will play it. If not, then the file is corrupted. for dvd, only cyberlink for me.

Winamp for music.

K-Lite's codec pack for everything else, including flv files. K-Lite comes with an "upgraded" version of Media Player Classic that has quite a few nice features in it.

nootrac22 · 06-08-2008, 12:55 AM

thanks to everyone, and feel free to keep em comin

|Chaz| · 06-08-2008, 01:07 AM

Winamp FTW

YBLEGAL · 06-08-2008, 03:34 AM

yessss Calesta, K-Lite is the one I ment.

If you want, you can grab it from my FTP site... ftp - colon slash slash - yblegal - dot - net; video codec pack

limited time only!

awptickes · 06-08-2008, 04:36 AM

VLC for video
iTunes for music

I'm using K-Lite's MPC. Works great and haven't had any codec issues(at least nothing major like having to download more codecs, etc.)

For music, I use iTunes and Winamp.

I use Windows Media Player 11. I like it I don't have any problems

nootrac22 · 06-08-2008, 11:07 AM

thanks everyone

Drake · 06-08-2008, 11:51 AM

Windows Media Player for music, mainly because I own a few Zunes.

VLC for videos.

Sabz5150 · 06-10-2008, 09:44 AM

Kaffeine

TurboMirage · 06-10-2008, 11:30 AM

VTEC_CBR · 06-10-2008, 07:01 PM

iTunes for my music because of my iPhone.
WMP11 for video, unless it's not recognized, then I use VLC

reikoshea · 06-11-2008, 12:47 PM

VLC for everything (cross platform compatibility).
I dont need a lot of fancy shit and everything works in it.

This is why I use VLC. I mean really if all you are going to do is watch a movie why do you need some huge ass program with 1000 other features?

eg6sir · 06-11-2008, 11:12 PM

i used to use WMP.. then i started using WinAmp, now i use iTunes because its where all my music is at now

K2e2vin · 06-12-2008, 02:58 AM

With VLC I had issues with movies in wide-fullscreen and subtitles(dual monitor). With MPC(K-lite version) with ffdshow, I can configure it how I want and works very, very well. Not to mention it plays everything VLC plays too(at least from my experience).

reikoshea · 06-12-2008, 07:04 AM

I'll give you that...the VLC options menu is like working with exchange. too many collapsible menus and you never really know where anything is.

Hahaha. I know. It's like I've got ADUC open, and I'm going through almost 400 containers trying to find a single DL. Oh how I wish there was a search feature. (for both VLC and ADUC)

reikoshea · 06-12-2008, 08:06 AM

i use ldap browser instead of aduc...seems to be much more efficient at finding things i need.

CRX-YEM · 06-12-2008, 12:55 PM

Amarok w/ mysql database for music
kaffeine for vids

reikoshea · 06-12-2008, 01:18 PM

Ugh...you K hippie (although the new KDE is very appealing...im thinking switching to that on one of my machines)
