    Simple Media Player

    I need a media player that will play a shit ton of different media file types. I have 200g and up of music and i have to switch between differnet players to be able to listen to some of them.
    i would really like to have a media player that is a "jack of all trades" sort of player.
    any ideas?
    The gay community embraced me just as I was working through my own sexuality and gave me a safe place to deal with that. One night someone came to my father when I was playing at a bar called Mr. Henry's, and said, "How could you bring yur daughter to a gay club?" And he replied, "Well, she won't be going home with any of you!" --Tori Amos: Piece by Piece, Tori Amos

    VLC media player is a catch-all.

    You'll probably have to grab some codecs though.

    What Lothar said.

    VLC Player.
    The broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes... Adolf Hitler

    VLC doesn't really have all that good of a media library, which is what you want if it's music you're dealing with.

    I'd try Mediamonkey.

    Something tells me that Winamp will probably suffice anyways. I had a dabble with Media Monkey but for some reason just couldn't dig it.

    I second VLC. I don't think I've discover a file format it doesn't play.
