    whats a good divx player?

    i have alot of music videos on my drive, so far ive used winamp to play them, due to winamps nice playlist abilities and the fact that i can set the hot keys to shuffle through the videos. i downloaded the new divx player today, and was thinking about switching over to that to play my videos- but then i noticed you cant even set hot keys to skip through files, etc, and the player doesnt remember the window position you left it in- so is there another good player for my videos with hot key support, or should i just keep using winamp for the time being?
    thanks for advice

    Media Player Classic or VLC Media Player.
    Download Media Player Classic 6.4.9.1 [2011.04.11] : Media Player Classic (MPC) comes with a big load of extra features you will enjoy

        Try mplayer. It has a Window's version I recall setting
        up on a Windows XP computer quite some time ago.
        It seemed to work well. It would play avi's or mpegs,
        and so on. Here's some links that may help.

              Those mplayer builds are old.
              You can find my mplayer and MPC builds here:


              Think MPC probably makes the most sense though. Page Up/Down to jump files. mplayer restarts between files so you lose full screen, etc.

                I like MPC the best also. Sometimes I will use Divx play just because it's there
