That's very cool!

Realplayer has no codecs for avi, xvid, divx, etc? VLC player has all these codecs and can show all these formats without problems.

Also Mplayer at blastwave.org works good too. They say mplayer plays even more formats than vlc player. Use the gui frontend which is called "gmplayer".
