Media Player Classic (usually abbreviated as MPC)  is a light wight, but fully featured audio and video player. It’s user interface is very similar to the old Windows Media Player, thus the name Classic. It has built in codecs and support for VideoCD, Super VideoCD and DVD playback. It utilizes the DirectShow architecture, so it can automatically use any DirectShow decoders that are installed in the system (see: FFDSHOW).

MPC is a highly recommended replacement for Windows Media Player, and combined with FFDSHOW it is suited for all typical audio/video playback uses.
