Mplayer and Xine can both handle them. I use Xine for DVDs since Xine
supports DVD menus and MPlayer does not. I use MPlayer for all other
formats since it seems a little faster to me.
One other note, you will need to go to MPlayers home page and download
all the Win32 Codec packages. Make a directory called /usr/lib/win32
and extract them there. Xine and MPlayer will use them and will be able
to play any file format you throw at it.
