About media player, you can try KMPlayer (http://forums.kmplayer.com/forums/forums.php). It's free! But it's really amazing. It can plays most of media files (music and movie files, flash, CD, DVD, ...) and provide many useful tools, plugins for watching movies, listening to music.I like the 'Subtitles' options most. It's very convenient because you can choose the position, size, effects and it can display many subtitle languages at the same time! (for me, it's good for learning English).Try it! And you will like it! ^^ IT'S FREE!
