    That's a tough one... they all seem to have problems of some sort and none I've tried will play everything I throw at it.

    Between WMP 7.01, WMP 6.4, Quicktime 6.0, DivX Player 2.0, Creative Play Center 3.02 and WinDVD 4.0 I seem to have got all the bases covered. There ought'a be a law forcing compliance and compatibility with these darn things.

    Yeah John E is right, it takes several players to play every kind of file. At least that's what I found

    powerDVD seems to play more than any other I've found, but I still need other players sometimes

    The impossible takes more time,and costs more money.

    I would use Quick Time if it were me.

    I know RealPlayer supports them, but they're worse then being infested by las cucarachas!
