I like its screenshot feature than MPC too. It doesn't get in the way of watching since I can just press Ctrl+E (pause for a little while at times), then it just saves the screenie like VLC does (it provides an auto-generated name, based on the filename), no prompts whatsoever ;P There are just times when it skips a few frames when I take screenies, and there are some subtitle renderring issues as well (this is where it kinda fails compared to VLC and MPC), but I found myself attached to GOM now ;P I seem to be one of the rare few people here using GOM player :eek: I find it more lightweight compared to MPlayer, MPC, and other players.

Since it tends to play <em>anything</em>, I find it useful when other players can't utilize some files, or when files are too high powered for them (back when I had a nice fast 700MHz computer, VLC was the only player that could play h264/x.264 files relatively smoothly. As in, I could see movement while everything else would basically be random screenshots.). As for what I use normally? >_> <_< Winamp, with a crapload of modifactions that I placed on it. So the way I have it set up, it can play any video file I can give it (though I haven't tried to see what I could do with it and DVDs), and I can use subtitles with it no problem. It's really all a bunch of add-on, but it does take a little time to do that most probably wouldn't want to mess with to watch stuff. And the only reason I really stick with Winamp is because I can forward and reverse the files 5 seconds. If there's another program that I can use to do that with that short interval, lay it on me. I'd be glad to mess with it. :P I use VLC as my main screenshot generator (any screenshot you see on my blog comes from that program), as also because of how annoying it can be to deal with screenshots and mkvs and such, it’s also my last option player.
