"Still one of the best."
Pros
Seems to play most everything.
Cons
1/ Requires a larger amount of PC memory than some newer products.
2/ Ugly user interface. What does that pylon actually represent?
3/ Few to no extended features like sub-titles, etc.Summary
After years of using mainly VLC I switched to others like UMPlayer and Media Player Classic that required a fraction of the memory. After running into file format incompatibility issues I went back to VLC recently and the problems have thus far not returned.
