* Not to be confused with KMPlayer
Are you tired to search and install bulky codecs? Try The KMplayer. It comes in a single package with all codecs which you may need.
The KMPlayer is a video and audio player for Windows which can play a large number of formats such as VCD, DVD, AVI, MKV, Ogg Theora, OGM, 3GP, MPEG-1/2/4, WMV, RealMedia, and QuickTime among others. It handles a wide range of subtitles and allows you to capture audio, video, and screenshots.
The player provides both internal and external filters with a fully controlled environment in terms of connections to other splitters, decoders, audio/video transform filters and renderers without grappling with the DirectShow merit system. Interestingly, it is said that internal filters are not registered to user's system to keep it from being messed up with system filters.
The player can set multifarious audio and video effects, slow down or increase playback speed, select parts of a video as favorites, do various A-B repeats, remap the keys of remote interface for HTPC including overlay screen controls, change a skin dynamically depending on a media type playing, and many more. The KMPlayer is completely customizable thanks to a wide selection of skins and color schemes, and the configuration options are very extensive.

I have had great results with this player on XP so far but surprisingly this is the only app that I have seen so far that frequently causes Vista to lock up badly enough that Task Manager doesn't display. A hard (disconnect power) reboot seems to be the only solution. It gives a few errors about being unable to update a winamp db and says that the error "should never really happen" in the error message. At that point you could as well place your head between your legs and kiss your a$$ goodbye if you are crazy enough to try starting the application again...   |

I am also using KMPlayer, too bad, that in Options.Preferences.Visualizations.Slideshow you can select among the "slide effects" between
1. Fade
2. Zoom in
but not both together, to get (as the Nostalgic Screensaver can) the Ken Burns Effect.

Been using it for a while. Very satisfied.
For newcomers, one (of the many) neat feature (if you don't use the easywindowdrag script) is being able to drag the window by clicking anywhere on the window (not just the title bar) when playing a video in windowed mode. |

| For me its best feature is that it uses Winamp-API, so any automation you programmed for Winamp will (or should) also work for KMPlayer. |
