Some have more features, some have better performance. I don't really care about it being "VLC". I've only used it for my PC once to try out. I just want a player that plays my videos smoothly on the N900 with useful options such as resume, aspect ratio, zoom/pan/scan etc. Built-in one definitely isn't as good as mplayer for example. mplayer has keyboard controls which I find extremely useful. (kmplayer and sib are just some of the front ends to mplayer)

More variety the better really. Then I have more chance of finding an app that I want. =)

Anyways, so far, this vlc player for the N900 is much worse than mplayer for now. Videos play really choppy. But some others report that it's butter smooth? Why is that?
