    try real alternative. This is basically WMP classic with all the codecs for real player and quicktime. I use this for everything, although VLC is a good one too

    real alternative can also be used to listen to the BBC online, thus saving you the hassle of having the cumbersome Real Player cluttering up your computer.

    If I downloaded any of the above, would I need to uninstall the media player?

    vlc is fine but but personally I just get on better with real alternative (difficult to say why).

    There is no need to uninstall Windows Media Player, although you may have to reset some default settings to stop it trying to play every time.

    Media player 11 started to annoy me, so I started using musikCube.

    No complaints!
