And Winamp is bloated. It's far from being the best anything, except maybe the best piece of crap. :P
Hence, why I don't select all features during installations. :)

A force of habbit, I use winamp as my primary music and video player.

I'm using reaction images depending on the right situation, and updating my database constantly from random sources, while stalking over the net .

Winamp works and I don't feel like switching programs when I dont have to. But whenever I file can't be played (like during download), I use vlc.

Ditto for me. Winamp for MP3 and OGG. MPP and then maybe XMplayer for MOD, IT, S3M, XM, 669, etc. K-Lite Codec Mega Packs' MPC for videos unless it has problems, then VLC. All are updated as well. :)

So far I have to say that MPC never failed on any videos here (well, apart from some really obscure mid-90s codecs which even VLC doesn't support). I did try VLC for a month but I just couldn't get used to it and it didn't support all the codecs I rely on (Lagarith being one of them), so I've ditched it and am using MPC now again. Yes, back to "codec hell", but at least it works.

There is the problem, codec hell. I don't want that. Another player that plays "all" videos are gom player. Anyone else tried it?

Yeah, that's always the problem. I stick with bundled one like K-Lite, use VLC as a backup (doesn't splatter all over my systems), and MPlayer (rarely in Windows, but used a lot in Linux/Debian like VLC).

Why do you stick to Winamp then?

I know winamp is using codec but as I wrote if I have a file that can't be opened by winamp I try vlc, but I can't remember last it happened to me, except during download.

I didn't know Winamp used codecs. I thought that was all local like VLC does.
