GOM Player (Gretech Online Movie Player) is a freeware media player for Microsoft Windows. Key strengths are the ability to play the majority of media files without the need to obtain a codec, and the ability to play some broken media files, both advantages over traditional players, like Windows Media Player. GOM Player supports file formats such as AVI, DAT, MPEG, DivX, XviD, WMV, ASF. More info »
Sleek UI,and one feature that I really appreciate from this media player is If you run a video file and there is already a file with a similar name in the directory, it will be automatically added to your playlist.
I'm not sure I agree with it having a "sleek" UI (although it's definitely better than VLC).
I was actually looking for an alternative to VLC, when I foud GOM Player. It seems to play about anything, it's relly fast, and watching movies with it on a laptop is a joy. Space = Play/pause, Enter = Full screen / windowed, Esc = Minimize.
Seems a lot faster than VLC to me, but I've had files that won't play on GOM that will on VLC. This player is definitely in the top two for windows IMO.
