Which Media Player package(s) do you use (and think is the best)?

I've never paid attention to media player resource usage xD

I'll check it right now:
Jetaudio V8
Playing a song without any enhancements was using 20MB of ram.
(With a playlist of 25 MP3's)
Both consoles opened, Main Window and Player Window.
And with the grey skin that comes with it.

 

I try KMPlayer and wow this is the one i want to use now amazing VLC or KMPlayer are the two best choices.

 

Creative media source player--which came free with their sound card. Excellent, way better than media player.

Quicktime alternative, Real Alternative, and the Media Player Classic that comes with those.
FFD show, and the XP codec pack.
Haven't found anything this combo can not play.

 

I tried The KMPlayer and it was one real PITA to get off my system.

 

Foobar for music. Have it for years and love it. Down to earth gui and sounds great (yes, players sound different. Don't ask me why.). SMPlayer for video. Just using it a few weeks, but very content with it. It replaced MPC and Subviewer.

 

KMPlayer on XP and Vista. VLC on Win7.
KMPlayer has issues on Win7.
VLC seems perfect for every use, although I don't like their default gui.

 

KMPlayer has issues on Win 7? Im using it without a single hiccup on Win7 x64 Pro.

 

KMPlayer and Windows 7 x86, without any single issue here. Run smoothly altogether. I haven`t heard about issues till now...

 

yep my KMPlayer freezes some times and get stuck in the middle of my screen i dont like the GUI that much but the codecs are good, i like simlist GUI of VLC cause i dont want the player in the midle of my screen i want it hide on my desktop so i dont like good lookings softwares i want functionality 1st but both are good software.

 

only prob i had with KMPlayer was its video quality seemed below that of K-Lite codec pack with MPC and VLC

 

VLC - Windows, Linux and BSD.

Some files media player classic+CCCP

 

any recommendation for a good DSP plugin with winamp for a good qualite sound?

 

kmplayer here on win 7 no issues, but i also use media player classic home cinema in case kmplayer cant play the file and vice versa.

 

iZotope Ozone for Media Players

It's not free, but you asked for quality.

 

iZotope Ozone on QMP or any supported media player is

 

Depend on mood... Winamp Pro, aimp and MediaMonkey for mp3, KMP for video.

 

I use MediaMonkey and although it is not included in your poll, it is imo the best one out there. I have used plenty of others (Winamp, XMPlay, Foobar, Windows Media Player), and feel that even the free version of Media Monkey is better than most of the others, and the paid version is the best. Anyone who has not tried it should.

thanks guys for your advise but i found a better way to improve the qualite, its a bridge between VST plugins and winamp.

 

I use Gom player , km and vlc .
All are good players ..

 

At the moment i am using "Media Player classic home cinema" for movies, its plays mkv better, more reliably and with the least resource use of any other i have tried.

For music at the moment i am using Quuxplayer.

 

In that case you should take a look at the full-fledged iZotope Ozone VST (if you haven't already). At first glance it may seem as expensive, but actually it's not

Also, care to share some of your own findings on good VST plugins?

 

come on jetaudio is the best

 

Hahahaha, i'm with you

 

I used RealPlayer for years,and have since moved to VLC,(which reiceved my vote)

I do not allow it to connect out,run it sandboxed,and update it manually.
So far I am really happy with it.
