I am at the end of my rope, guys.

I'm trying to find a media player that can display other languages (English, Korean, Japanese)
I've found WINAMP to be appealing.. but alas, it does not support other languages unless you set up your computer for that single language.

Would anyone like to share or recommend a 5 star, language supportive media player that is visually & functionally appealing?
Screenshots would be appreciated, too

i actually think itunes is nice...but most people don't for some reason. it displays those languages you listed too.

^I used to use iTunes.

...but I found that it takes up alot of space on the computer.
And for some reason, when I try to make the songs shuffle,
it played a song and then it didn't go on after that one song..
Maybe it's just my computer?

*shrug* So I deleted that, and set off to find a better media player.
Thus, my post :]

Cause it takes up a lot of space and makes the computer laggy !

I use winamp, I don't care for the characters because I can't read them..Korean, Chinese.. whatever! lol..

If youw ant, you should use Windows Media Player, it isn't laggy at all and it shows the characters.

i know that ipods can do that ^^
they have many languages but their functions are complicated

[joonage]

Windows Media Player seems to be the easiest to use.

GOM Player is pretty nice too.

My Winamp player actually displays Korean...but not Chinese. I don't know why. o.o

i've been using foobar2000 for a while and i like it a ton it's really simple to use but i think it works very well. i'm not sure how to fully customize it like you can on winamp but i don't really care

and it does display korean, japanese, chinese... i don't know what other languages though

[butterflyeffect]

I've found WMP easiest to use.

[Rozzy]

right now i'm using foobar2000 and i really like it. it doesn't lag or take up lots of space or neting...and i think itz very user friendly.

here's a site of foobar2000 screen shots

here's a place that u can dl customized skins for foobar2000
http://www.customize.org/list/foobar

i've used winamp, windows media player, itunes, and others bfore..and i like foobar2000 the best. windows media player is pretty good..except for the face that wen u minimize the program..it addz this bar thing to the task bar...which is really annoying. itunes takes up a lot of memory on the comp...so u can't really do other things with it on.

also..u can import ur windows media player or winamp playlists into foobar2000 (i think that's a great feature)..rofl. oh! nd foobar2000 is an audio player only..no video.

for video...i recommend km player. . km player can also play audio too...but i dun really use it.
the km i think stands for korean media player...

here's a place wit screenshots

the latest verison.

[FirstTheWorst]

Winamp...I think version 2. something. Hahahah. Pretty sick.

But I use VLC for videos.

[jornado]

ya. i like foobar2000. it's not resouce-taxing and it's v.customisable. highly recommended. =)

[angelic_diablo]

WMP works fine for me...been using it for well...looooong time ago. It display all the languages you want..

[bboyrushfive]

the new WMP hasnt changed any functions really, was just adjusted to work with their new zunes
interface changed, looks nicer i admit

as for best player, GOM player beats every by far
least resources, fast, interface is beautiful
also you can stream everything there for free basically, dramas, gameshows, etc etc

gom music player (just for music) is good too if you're only looking for music players, extremely fast and clean

[baokapris]

I personally really like GOM Player but there are no version for mac though. I have a pc desktop (the family computer) but then I own an apple powerbook g4 laptop.
Does anyone know any good media player for mac? I'm getting sick and tired of iTunes. I just realized how much space it takes in my computer. About 72.3 MB on my hd. Please anyone? Thanks for anyone who does help.

I think I've found my own solution..
SONGBIRD. Search it, research it, test it.
I believe it is the best. It's still in its BETA stages but it's still worth testing out!
IT CAN SHOW ALL LANGUAGES!!! YAAY

[OsiX]

Foobar2000
-Full UTF8/16 support (unicode)(handles LANGUAGES)
-Masstagging, renaming, restructuring directories
-Handles extremely large collections easily (like I'm talking even for 32000 files +)
-Converts various different codepages into unicode (wtf does this mean? It means when you see !@#SDF@#$ typical for chinese/japanese/korean songs, you can convert it so it shows up proper in all programs)
-ReplayGain Support
-Gapless Playback Support
-Converts different file formats, encode files, rip cds
-Low memory footprint
-Fixes broken MP3 headers
-HIGHLY customizable, make use of your own tags, organizes your music (especially large collections!)
-By customizable, I do not just mean the functions. Its appearance can be changed practically to whatever you want it to (limited to the Visual Style) or perhaps you prefer your computer's programs to conform to the VS. You can easily make it look like WMP11/iTunes etc. Practically anything, as long as you take the time to either 1) figure out how to do it 2) find someone else's that looks like it and download their config.
-Can connect to iPod through components
-Very supportive community @ HA

I highly recommend the program!

-Only disadvantage, steep learning curve (that is, if you want to design your own layouts FROM SCRATCH. This being said, most people share their layouts and you can easily modify existing ones)
