And I tried them all. I have stuck by MPC(CCCP) and VLC for many years now since they work. However, once the 1080p encodes start popping up, MPC and VLC simply couldn't handle them. Ok. There's always the CoreAVC to speed up those 1080p encodes but MPC+CoreAVC couldn't even compete on how SPlayer runs 1080p like it's nothing. I should have discovered SPlayer a lot earlier.

I mean, it works as it's supposed to so there is no need to change it... yet. I’ll be sticking with VLC this time. I mean, it works as it’s supposed to so there is no need to change it… yet.

It hijacked all of my media associations (all file types were "SPlayer File" without the extension), and added an option (in Chinese!) to my thumbdrive's autoplay list (which I can't take out!)...all WITHOUT ASKING! Not good, it came off my system and won't be used again. Tried the “portable” (no-install, unzip-and-run) version.
