Have you tried GOMPlayer ( http://www.gomplayer.com/main.html)?
I am using it as my primary video player. I works better than VLC media player. Skins can be downloaded from their Korean site.
GOMPlayer does for video what XMPLay does for audio.
They say
“We are offering you the world best media player! GOM is a FREE media player with popular audio & video codecs built-in. No need to install codecs separately!Try one of your broken AVI files or one of the files that is being downloaded with GOM. You will discover.. the magic.. “
I always look forward to reading your excellent blog.

Frankly why choose anything but Expert even More >

I come home, listen to really loud music (damn the neighbors) to unwind. Have dinner and then go to sleep. Next morning its more of I Owe! I Owe! It’s Off To Work I Go.
Luckily the weeks of silence add up to some tasty software. XMPlay, More >
