Media Player Classic (MPC). Media Player Classic is an extremely light-weight media player for Windows. It looks just like the good-old Media Player v6.4, but has lots of nice extra features.
MPC has, for instance, a built in DVD player with real-time zoom, support for AVI subtitles, QuickTime and RealVideo support (requires QT and/or Real player), and lots more.
Definitely a great replacement for the huge and clumsy Microsoft Media Players.

Oi! Leave me out of this...
dbecks : It depends on what you define as a Media Player... are you talking stand alone or a piece of software for the pc?

The usual ones or handheld/portable ones?
I recently bought the Tvix 6500. Awesome little machine, plays everything I throw at it + I've set up wireless connection to PC. I did some serious research before I bought and the majority consent is that the Tvix trumps the Mvix. 
Good interface and remote, good online community to sort out problems and fairly regular firmware upgrades
It is a bit expensive though. A cheaper alternative might be the Popcorn Hour A110 - also receives rave reviews.
The Mvix 780 still has the older Sigma chip installed (I think they have announced a Mvix 800, but I have no idea when it will be available in SA). The Tvix and Popcorn Hour have the new chips - I think it is Sigma 8635 or something for better HD support etc. etc.
