AVI Downloads.

Yes without codecs the video can´t be watched.

What you mean is VLC don´t need so many additional codecs...

Almost don´t mean all, or do I miss anything?

If you would install the codecs which VLC don´t have you wouldn´t need the zoom player, the day will come that you need a codec which isn´t supported by both players - will you download a third or more players than? I see no advantage to use two or more players while you can use one.

Morg I guess youre right there about the codecs.
I tought I had read something somewhere about VLC not needing codecs.
But apparently it seems to install a few.

Ah well anyway I like VLC a lot and prefer to use it instead of Win Media player.
Zoomplayer looks nicer but can't open as much as VLC does (it does not preview partially downloaded files just like Win Media player)

VLC is not bad.

Install a codec pack and both players should be able to play all videos, and then choose the one you like more.

normaly in most cases this is enough :

ffdshow
AC3Filter

if tou install those you dont have to install lots of different packets ................it works for me
