Choose the player that you find the best.
These are all compatible with Logitech Itouch.

I use PowerDVD XP because it's the most stable on my PC. WinDVD crashes on me or is malfunctionning all the time.

@ cruncher
I'm even surprised he listed so many players, I thought he'll list windvd and powerdvd only.
Never heard about an nvdvd player anyway, guess it comes with crappy nvidia cards (yeah, I'm an ATI customer :D)

PowerDVD XP is the only DVD player that doesn't crash on me all the time. It doesn't like my video card though (ATI Mobility 4), and will crash if hardware acceleration is enabled. I just don't care for WinDVD, used it for awhile though.

I switched to zoomplayer 3.0 and i think it's much better than powerDVD. Unfortunately no dts yet.

ZoomPlayer is no DVD-player. It's just a front-end.
Without PowerDVD oder WinDVD components, zoomplayer is useless (I hate that player anyway)
