I agree, or should I say I concur. Some people just don't learn, do they?

FFDSHOW
VLC Media Player
Quicktime alternative codec
Real media alternative codec

These 4 should take care of most of your playback problems.

I dont want to start any arguement here but the Klite pack does more than just playback.....
and the BS player is a great thing... when u have subtitles in another file or u have an audio log.... so i think ffdshow is great if u just wanna playback things....
but Klite mega pack is POWERFUL tool.... and once u have it installed just play everything in WMP or MPC...... no 10 alternatives required...
Well, I view vids from my PC mostly on a high res TFT or using a DLP projector. So, FFDShow is my only (free) option for superior quality scaling and other filters.

You could also apply the same principals get excellent results on a desktop monitor. Just make sure you have enough processing power.
