what i use is Media Player Classic.
you should try it. :)

This should be in the computer section.
EDIT: Damn you beat me to it!

Use VLC player, its what I use for mkv

I cannot possibly recommend this one enough.

VLC

*total noobish*
what's that? x]

Video Lan Codec player. It plays just about anything but realmedia files, which suck anyways. Only drawback is with VLC is that when you try to drag the time progress pointer to another location, the screen fuzzes up before turning normal for a second to a couple. It's the reason why I use MPC (Media Player Classic) most of the time, but having VLC player is better for backup. Zoom player isn't bad and it's GUI design is very nice looking and easy to use... it's just that I run into more problems with that than MPC. BS player is great for taking snapshots of whatever you're viewing, but I find that it just doesn't do .mkv or .ogg files or h264 coding. I know Divx player is pretty good, but apparently my friend got this weird blue screen crap. Needless to say, with MPC and VLC player, I think you're set. Getting Realplayer is necessary for playing realmedia files because installing and running realmedia codecs is just a pain in the butt and doesn't work half the time.

i only have WMP MPC.
probably the only two i will ever need.
well until i download a file using some other player T-T

is there any other then Real that i should get?

Well, VLC player then. I mainly use four players: MPC, VLC player, WMP, and occasionally RLplayer. I use Quicktime player to play .gif files, but that's about it.

The best damn thing ever....ever

oops sry well thnx for your help
