VLC (Videolan) reach version 1.0
The BEST player that play anything out of the box without hassle. If it can be played then it is was not a video! May look ugly for some people but I wont read any video without it. Best of all it is FREE, open source and run on nearly any platforms and has a lot of features (it play DVD, H264 and and and..)
