what is your media player of choice?

just what one do you use and do you know any lite ones that I might be able to use ingame that wouldn't lag me?

[Doctor Destiny 41]

I use Winamp for music and WMP for video.

I literally have Winamp open at all times and it never causes any problems for me... even on my ancient Compaq, it was good.

[Saracen 16]

WMP for everything nowadays, it does the job for everything I need, and it's been more stable than anything else I previously used. So I'm happy with it.

[F15pilotX 4]

I have iTunes (iPod), but I might try out WinAmp soon

[Doctor Destiny 41]

**** iTunes, **** Quicktime, **** iPods, **** everything Apple makes because it all sucks.

[TheBlackOut 7]

I like iTunes. It just depends, sometimes WMP, sometimes iTunes.

[Tree 0]

WMP is great for all my needs.

[F15pilotX 4]

iTunes was great, until it started getting bloated >_<

[Luk3us 63]

Musicmatch Jukebox 10. Sure its one of those crappy things that comes preinstalled on most machines, and people promptly remove it, but I like it, specially the equaliser and such, its much better than WMP...

[Saracen 16]

When your comp comes with a 7.1 surround High Definition Sound card and software to do some serious damage with. You only use WMP to support the play of the material, the kick ass sound system does the rest :wink:

Winamp cause all I want for a media player is a simple set of buttons and a playlist. I don't need all the extra stuff or features.

[mormreed 0]

think I'm gonna start using winamp now jus cause it's such a small program and has what i need

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Do so. It kicks ass.

iTunes. Without iTunes, I wouldn't have realized that I've listened to Booyaka 619 over 800 times.

[Sonic 296]

Windows Media Player 11 does everything I need from music to DVDs.... not that I watch DVDs on the computer though.

Winamp. Simple to use and customizable. Just what I need.

Winamp is the best media player I have found for music.

 

For videos I use VLC/Media Player Classic, their a lot less bloated than WMP.

**** iTunes, **** Quicktime, **** iPods, **** everything Apple makes because it all sucks.

Quoted For Truth!!

 

Winamp is the best, it's really easy to use and customisable. And the playlist thing is really easy to use.

[TheBlackOut 7]

I tried WinAmp and never really liked it. Never saw the appeal. iTunes actually.

 

*Mayor Joe Quimby's voice*Cause I have some... err.. I acquired... some music files that only play in that, errr, iTunes. Errr... yah.

iTunes is a bloated program if I run it with no other programs going my comp lags even with a gig and a 1/4 of ram and no other programs it lags winamp on the other hand doesn't even lag me while I'm in APB

[Hans5849 0]

When ever I close Itunes my CPU usage jumps up to 75%, and it doesn't manage the library nearly as well as winamp. I used to have songs that have no file attached to them, even though right under it was the song pointing to the same file. If you change the file names it can get messy. I have a program called "iTunes Library Updater" thats free and solves this.

 

Oh and the reason I have iTunes, I have a 80 gig Ipod that I bought because my car has a direct link to the ipod where i can control it from my head unit.

[mormreed 0]

I have an iPod too but I still hate iTunes as a media player and no offense but honestly who is gonna use 80 gigs of space on an iPod

[Alphabear 11]

itunes and VLC usually

Same here. And MPC supports Real and Quicktime formats so I don't have to install the ****ware that is RealPlayer or the bloatware that is Quicktime.

 

what's vlc?

VLC is a media player that is both lightweight, and feature packed.
