Default Best Media Players on the Net

The following two media players are some of the best available on the Internet at the moment:

The VLC media player will play most videos without having to install additional codecs.

VideoLAN - Open Source multimedia and streaming solutions for every OS!



The GOM media player is just as good as VLC but with the added ability to skip any corrupt segments within a video file. However, if the entire file is corrupt then that is that, it just will not play.

GOMlab.com - Play Any Video File, Any Time! The Best Media Player!

ukbobby,
The GOM player appears to live up to its claim. Seems to have quite a few more features than VLC, and I haven't seen anything that VLC can do that GOM cannot.

I hope I'm not writing too soon - haven't checked it out completely.

Thanks for the tip.

btw, I heard that the UK had a recent heat wave - got up to 89-F!

Well, there was a mini heatwave, it didn't last too long. We, in the UK, are back to the normal summers, i.e. lots or rain

PS. The GOM Player is now my main/default media player

Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain) said that his coldest winter was the summer he spent in San Fransisco!
Perhaps that is why we feel a kinship with the Aussies.

I, too, have chosen GOM as my default. Thanks again for the tip!
