For quite awhile now I've been using Media Player Classic HC combined with CCCP codec pack. It works great, does everything I want.
However, every once and awhile I run into a file that was just encoded wrong/funny that MPC HC doesn't play right, usually too fast, or no sound (rare, but it happens, usually F1 races for some reason). I try opening it in Window Media Player 12, and it plays fine. For the amount that it this happens, I could care less...if it didn't look SO much better then MPC HC
And that's my only complaint, is that WMP has a cleaner picture.
So why not use WMP you say, well I hate the user interface, and it doesn't play everything.
So my question(s) is:
1. Am I just seeing things, or is this something other people have noticed too?
2. And what other options would you recommend? And why? (Which I assume most are going to say VLC, but I'd like to see if anything else gets recommended)
