    Used to like PotPlayer in the past but stopped using it after I heard there was a Korean Dialer built into it that silently tries to dial a Korean phone number.

    I use MPC-HC + LAV Filters + MadVR! Best quality you could ever imagine and you can play any file in the world

    VLC's quality is HORRIBLE compared to the above setup. you won't know what I mean until you've tried it! nothing beats the madVR renderer

    Never tried PotPlayer, and I love vlc, back when I worked at my last computer repair shop I had a guy that did film or something like that and said that vlc was the best, I have never ran into any issues with it over the years, I love great quality however, so I might just check out the above setup, thanks for sharing.

    I use the latest version of 64bit VLC 2.1 beta, usually update every 2 weeks or so, sooner if there's a problem though (recently couldn't change audio volume about 100%). I have it set to auto-launch full-screen(for movies).
    I also use the x64 MPC which comes with the K-Lite pack for smaller things I don't want in full-screen. It uses much less CPU than VLC but when I skip parts, image goes corrupt for 3-5secs.

    all my music is wma lossless...all my videos are mp4 full hd...windows media player 12 plays all my media!!!

    if i need to view a real media or mkv file i use vlc which is aptly called the swiss knife of media players:biggrin:

    i had tried kmplayer on xp once & had a harrowing experience uninstalling/removing the damn thing...never touched it again!!!

    i dont like a media player that goes online looking for codecs when you hit the play button:aglerks:

    you wished, MPC + LAV + madVR craps all over VLC in terms of quality!

    You obviously haven't seen madVR in action

    This.

    If you still think VLC is better then you have either a bad computer which can't handle the epicness.
    Other option is that you set it up wrong, it's not install and run.. ;)

    Test the quality of your player with this video, watch between 14s to 22s the face of the person.

    I voted for KMPlayer vs VLC because of the interface and quality for audio. They are both great but not best, I am just using it for my slow PC

    I installed MadVr but it says it's unavailable in MPC-HC under the options setting. Anyway to fix this?

    DOH! I believe MadVr is only supported for the x86? LAME!:ablow:
