Best Video playa

Hey guys,

I have had Media player since my hard reset coupla months ago. I was wondering if anybody could sugest what media player is;

*The best
*Has the most features
*Can play the most files eg .wmv, .mpeg, .avi

The reason for this is I don't want like 500 media players to play different files! like before.

Anyway thanks in advance.

Based on what plays the most formats I would say PocketMVP.

Give Beta Player a run too!! It plays:
ogg, ogm, mp1, mp2, mp3, avi, divx, xvid and wav. Not only this, there is a lot more options you can tweak. The only problem is that it doesnt play .mpeg files. That's why I also have Pocket MVP player installed ^_^ Both are very good players. I think they are even developed by the same group.

PocketMVP and BetaPlayer reads .avi, but it's just a container format. They not neccessary support the codec used inside.

btw I'am adding wmv and wma support to BetaPlayer (on WM2003) http://beta.topcat.hu/unstable . so only mpeg is missing, i'll work on that

That's good to hear picard. I am not a big fan of the wmv/wma format but it is always nice to have a multimedia player to can pretty much do it all.

I use beta player for AVI files, and Pocket TV pro for MPG files. Both work awesome.
