Music and video archive + player

I'm searching for a new media player that also archives all my music and video files.
It has to be user friendly, have many ways to order my files and be able to play alot of different filetypes.

Does anyone have some recommendations?

I used Winamp many years ago but back then it could only play music files.

Re: Music and video archive + player

Well supposdely the latest version of Winamp tackles almost all file types now, so maybe give that a shot again. I'm not sure on that though..... I also hear the VLC Media Player is a good one to have, I've never tried it myself but it's gained good word of mouth so far.

I think I'll give Winamp 5.1 a shot.

Do you mean DivX? It's not good for archiving and not very good for audio files either...

Re: Music and video archive + player

I hate to admit it, but Windows Media Player is still the best archival solution for a PC. It archives and complies collections so well that it mistakenly indexed all of my Cakewalk Sonnar scratch tracks (thousands) when seaching for media to catalogue. That by no means is an endorsment. It still lacks control and easy skinning. It's clunky and does many unwanted things without prompting.

On the plus side, you can play anything on it so long as you have the right codecs. The only filetype that mine does not handle is ".mov" (stupid quicktime...) I bet there is a solution for that, but I hardly ever see .mov movies.

Like I posted in another thread, my vote goes to the free Zoom media player. Unobtrusive GUI, a gigantic list of user controls and options- yet easy to operate from the start, and better codec rendering than most other players. No dvd support, unless you buy the pro version though.
