</I>>><i> couldn't test due to not existing hardware.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Next option would be xine-ui which definitely is looking a bit old fashioned.

</I>><i>
</I>><i> - security, again, no one took that in account ( given
</I>><i> <A HREF="http://caca.zoy.org/wiki/zzuf/bugs">http://caca.zoy.org/wiki/zzuf/bugs</A> , I am again not very keen on relying

I would vote for VLC, firstly because it plays pretty much everything,
its qt based, and finally becuase it is platform independant, every OS
seems to have VLC.
