FHteam Admin	# Posted: 13 Jun 2007 04:31 Reply VLC Media Player by VideoLAN Home and Hobby → Hobby Toolchest → Miscellaneous VLC - the Open Source, cross-platform, media player and streaming server is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, and more) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It can play any region DVD without manually changing settings. It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network....
PooterMagoo	# Posted: 15 Jul 2007 19:35 Reply As for the media player, it's very basic looking but dont let that fool ya... It's capabilities seem endless. A bit jumpy with wmv files but other than that... I've not found a media file it wont play. Plays DVDs great with all the menu options. Being able to set my own menu hotkeys is a great feature as well. Another plus is having SHOUTcast Radio & TV included in the playlist. Thumbs up to VideoLAN! I havent had a reason to use the "Streaming Server" yet, but if it functions as well as the media player, this program is second to none in its class.
