VLC is quite crappy for sure :shadedshu
I use SMPlayer and Mplayer to get smooth play back on HD content.
VLC likes to crash my Destop all the time on my jaunty build. :respect:
Not to mention the video play back is often choppy on VLC.

VLC is the only player with built in codecs. that is its only special feature. its a terrible player with so-so built in codecs.


The only reason its popular at all, is that its a good diagnostic tool for when people have installed crap codec packs and trashed their PC's.

I use Mplayer too because VLC does not adjust automatically for my TV, when I use it as a mirrored monitor for my laptop.
