Also still using 6.4 no need for the other bloated versions. I only need the windows media 9 codec .

[thop]

using neither

[Pace]

Might try it out, I've just got 6.4 as well Ahh, Windows 2000

[Kooldino]

6.4 is the best. THe rest are too bulky for me. :-)

thop,

Then how, praytell, do you view videos?

P.S. Loaded question, since 99.99% of all media players out there just use DirectShow, which is... WMP!

The direct download link. The main site hasn't been updated yet. Just make sure you change the first drop down box to WMP series 9.

Switched to WM9 to test MSPro 7, whch has the WM9 encoder built into it. Not bad....lotsa profiles and decent quality.

zoomplayer

[Gurm]

thop,

Zoomplayer... is a front end for DirectShow.

In other words... it's WMP.

[Marshmallowman]

[KvHagedorn]

using sasami here.. works for almost everything.

Oh, and 6.4 as well

Won't ever give up 6.4 Tried 7.0 once and it was awful, big disgusting button, the frame of the player took just as much room as the video window itself, yuck! Why do they always have to ruin the players when they make newer versions? Same with real-player, nothing above 8.1 will be simple enough. Not to mention the super-lame winamp 3.x...
