What do you know is the best Free media player? Were not just talking about mpeg and mp3's, we're also talking about avi's ogg's mkv's AND DVD.

I've had problems with WMP11Beta for playing some DVDs. In one particular DVD, the intro was normal TV format, but then switched to widescreen when the movie started. WMP11Beta wasn't able to detect this change, so I ended up watching a stretched video, but PowerDVD7 and Media Player Classic did the proper switching to widescreen.
