i used xmps before the development ceased. i'm pretty sure it's been
over a year since it's last release. a while back i switched to xine and
have been very happy with it. you can find it at
http://xine.sourceforge.net/. what turned me on to it was it's support
for a ton of formats and codes such as:

File formats (System layer / media types) supported:
  * direct DVD playback (of unlocked/unencrypted DVDs, see below)
  * Video CD
  * mpeg program streams (.mpg, .mpeg)
  * mpeg transport streams (.ts)
  * ogg (.ogg)
  * avi (.avi)
  * asf (.asf, .wmv)
  * quicktime (.mov)
  * mpeg-video (.mpv, .m2v)
  * mpeg-audio (.mp2, .mp3)
currently unsupported Formats:
  * real (.rm, .ra, .ram)

i can live with a media player that only doesn't support real player
files. it's worth a look. also, let me know if you need the win32 dlls.
