This isnt dependant on the player. A codec is system wide that all applications can access. I personally prefer Media Player Classic

MPC (media player classic) has the ability to render movies that are not finished. There is also the popular AVI Preview.

I personally would recommend VideoLAN. It also supports alternative video formats like ogm and mkv natively, so you don't have to go searching for filters all over the internet.

Well since it looks like we're voting, I'm a media player classic fan, dont let its name put you off, its alot better then windows media player. Another one I like is mplayer, its a great player ported from linux, plays everything I can throw at it.
