anyone know a good avi video player? (1 Viewer)

[vds700]

I was using "AVI Movie Player" which played all my videos fine.

Recently I reformatted my computer and reinstalled Windows XP. I installed AVI Movie player again, but now it wont play some of my avi videos (plays the sound, but freezes on the 1st frame of the video).

Does anyone know of a good video player that will play all AVI files?

I tried a few that come up on google, but they didnt work either.

Thanks

VLC Media Player is quite good. It plays most video formats.

Here's the website:
VLC media player - Open Source Multimedia Framework and Player

VLC or WMP/MPC with a full K-Lite Codec Pack.

Don't know what im talking about?...google (or bing) it

Why even download a player, just use your default windows media player but install the "AVI codec pack", available free from download.com

Well, its what i did.

Zoomplayer with CCCodec Pack.

one of the best players i've used. VLC isn't that great when displaying subs (especially for anime)

Yes exactly what I use.
VLC Media Player with the Full K-Lite Codec Pack.
Just what you need.

I watch anime in English anyway so I don't care about anything else.

CCCP is much better than K-Lite.

Purely for the fact that it is community based and has less crap on it

K-lite is fine... it works... and unless you download it from somewhere really dodgy it likely won't have spyware... AND it doesn't use up as much processor to run the codecs... actually saves battery life.
