VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.1.8
I started using VLC about 4 or 5 years ago, when Windows Media Player wouldn't play a lot of the movies I had download,and never looked back.
Version 1.1.4 was real buggy with certain codecs for me but 1.1.8 everything so far is fine. I love the ability to customize so many settings, and the fact it take almost anything I can throw at it.
I donate to this project when ever I can.

VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.1.5
I agree with wdc. Ever since 1.0.3 it's been buggy as hell, Can't seek mkvs, m2ts s, crashes frequently too.. I dumped it for good..
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.1.4
vlc lost its way, it used to be a terrific player, now it's just another one, slow, resource hog, keeps icon in systray even after close, keep my files busy after closed, too many bugs. i'm using mpc right now and dumped vlc for good.
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.0.5
Dissatisfied with Windows Media Player, this application is a far better alternative. It has more options and is easy to use. I recommend it for anyone who uses a DVD ROM or CD ROM.
VLC Media Player is a very user friendly, intuitive application that allows me to use my music libraries or 'movie of the day' without any struggle. It lets me gets started, the 'disappears' while in use. Then it comes easily to use when I am done.

VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.0.2
1.0.2 is finally usable for me (Windows)! Still has flaws (creates invalid icon entries for the file associations; sometimes displays three little video popup windows when playing a wmv!), but this player is finally worthy enough to replace Media Player Classic here (HomeCinema was a good alternative but unfortunately that is just a bit too unstable).
VLC is quite heavy in the disk space department, but it can be cut down to about 55 mb (from around 80 -LOL). Quite good player so far, and the playback speedup while keeping the same sound pitch is great (seems only this player offers that).

Using VLC 1.0.2, WMV file, with WMV3 format video and WMA3 (VLC codec "wmap") format audio, plays video fine but has NO AUDIO!!
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 1.0.0 rc1
VLC is one pretty smart media player. However, I found that with VLC 1.0, when seeking through a WMV file, playback was slow. When downgrading to the 0.9.9 version, the file instantly played after each seek time with no pause afterwards. I will stick with the 0.9.9 version until the 1.0 version becomes more stable and this issue with WMV files is resolved. Other than that, this is a great media player. Will use this for great .WMV file playback.
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 0.9.9
Very good on older youtube video clips but image is shaky on newer youtube clips even those with lower resolution.
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 0.9.9
Using VLC 0.9.9, under Tools->Preferences->Audio->Filters->spatializer there are 5 parameters/options but no descriptions or names for these parameters/options on the left.
Help->Check for Updates... appears to be broken. I get pop-up window with title "VLC media player updates". Window shows "Launching an update request...", but then comes back with "An error occurred while checking for updates...". Clicking on "Recheck version" button at bottom of pop-up window, repeats this error.

VLC (VideoLAN Client) 0.8.6i
I'm using VLC version "f".
It does play .wmv files fine. That's a positive!
However,
* It displays .3gp (3gpp) video, but has no sound.
* It displays .3g2 (3gpp2) video, but has no sound.
* It does not even open a .avi file!

VLC (VideoLAN Client) 0.8.6h
Only real problem I have with VLC (which for most things is quite nice) is the subtitle support. It's absolutely the worst. How about working on improving that for the .i release????
VLC (VideoLAN Client) 0.8.6h
It doesn't play video's, horrible UI, skippy playback, useless options, needed options missing.
