I'm trying to decide which movie player to make my default player. I have been using FFdshow in combination with Media Player Classic for years now, but I'm now thinking of making VLC Player my standard player. Which of the two functions better? If there are any other movie players that you recommend let me know, thanks.

I like BS Player, because if you have a foreign language film with the subtitles in a separate file, then you can easily load the subtitles with the movie.

If you don't like foreign films with subtitles, then it probably wouldn't matter.
