Which video player
0
I downloaded a anime off the site today and tried to open with windows media player and it was unable to read the file, was wondering if anyone could tell/link me a video that will work.

Yeah, Windows Media Player does not natively play Matroska files. Best thing to do is get Media Player Classic and the Combined Community Codec Pack.
If you don't feel like going through all that you could down VLC player instead. Don't let Sindalf tell you otherwise. :P

VLC is absolutely terrible. It can barely even be called a media player. For subtitles it does not even render sub tags properly.
This picture should be proof enough. https://www.fakku.net/image-404/images/104603-2BBF2NN.jpg

Not really. There isn't much greater alternative. MPlayer basically turns out the same as VLC. I've never had much trouble though. Only a few subbers really give viewers grief with VLC.

VLC players quality is very bad and grainy, media player classic is able to maintain a good quality. Also for me VLC player could not handle 720 and 1080P blue ray files, go for classic player

If you're too lazy to decide which video player you should download, why don't you try converting the video file into something else like .avi?

This is the thread that might help you. It's with the same problem (with a .mkv file), but is looking for a different converter, rather than trying to download another video player.

This is the thread where we discussed different converters we can download.
I hope I helped :D

Only a few subbers are actually good.

I never said I actually used VLC on linux but my balls-out linux friend says its good. Then again I doubt he has put as much effort as I have into making MPC look as awesome as I have. CoreAVC codec for the h264 CUDA support, denoise and edge sharpen filters, and higher resolution subs just look sex.
