Media Player Classic

is it worth getting if i already have wmp, vlc and real player. does it take up a lot of space?

 

no it doesn't take up that much space
you might as well get it, it's not like it hurts you in any way
I have all the other players and this as well

 

if get this then you might aswell uninstall real player . . .

media player classic plays .rm and .rmvb files anyway and i personally like this too. Didn't like real player that much

 

get rid of your vlc if your gonna use mpc, btw it takes up super little space you mind as well get it

 

MPC takes up only a little bit of space... you can listen to music and do something else and it won't lag as much as when you use like real/vlc or any other players

 

ok then i will, thanks for all the advice.

 

classic pretty much plays anything and uses very little.. if all ur other media players fail go play it on classic!!

 

Or you can uninstall realplayer and install real alternative (which takes up less space) and play RMVB files with windows media player. Unless you have a problem with the way VLC plays MKV files. I do so that's why I have MPC installed to play my MKV files.

 

yeah u need the realalternative codec if u want it to play rmv files

 

got the real alternative player only because realplayer can't read the vobsub files. my divx worked for them first but i dunno why it don't work anymore. i have media player classic but rarely use it.

 

so i got the media player classic and deleted realplayer but it can't play rmvb files. do i need to get a codec pack and where do i get this from?

 

If you want to play RM and RMVB on WMP just download Real Alternative.

 

never heard of media player classic lol

 

don't worry about it i got it sorted, i just got the k-lite codec pack and that comes with media player classic and has all the codecs for it to play just about every single file there is out there.

 

In tech forums, a lot of people suggest newbs use MPC if they can't play MKV I think.

 

I only use the standard Windows media player 11 and Real Alternative to play all of my media files. I also have installed the codec named FFDshow.

There isnt a thing what i couldnt play with the programs what i have wrote above.

 

yea there are the codecs that come with k-lite codec pack, so u can play all the files on wmp but it also contains media player classic which is basically the same but i think it is better as it takes up less ram and loads much quicker. other from that it has the same functionality.

 

ya it eats quite little resources..

 

do you really need so many players? i just use media player with the appropriate codecs sych as real alternate as someone mentioned and it plays everything
