How to watch WMV (VC-1) without having WMP 11 installed?

[orion44]

Hi...

Does anyone know how can I play WMV (VC-1) videos without having windows media player 11 installed?

And I don't want to install WMP 11, because I use Winamp 2 to listen to music.
and so what??? http://tinyurl.com/3ag46up

If they don't use interlaced vc-1 then you can just use ffdshow (libavcodec)

Thank you!!!

If some of the videos are interlaced, do I need then to install WMP 11?

By the way, I use BS Player for watching movies.

yes because libavcodec does not support interlaced vc-1.

Potplayer supports interlaced VC-1.

Hi! I plan to download all of the 3600 videos from their serversThat sounds like a daunting task, especially if they are full length videos...
