Why do you repair GTK+ GUI in case support VCD? Once i installed Xine (a free mediaplayer as well know) which support a lots of mdeia format but for DTS CD.
As for I insalled VLC for it supports DTS CD , I prefer to Xine than VLC else or.
Xine GUI is very beauful and stable, in particular , it support VCD , DTS DVD , AC-3 DVD , Audio DVD execpt DTS cd, so I selected VLC as my MediaPlayer, but i feel dispointment,
It does not support VCD , after all VLC team is less than XIne's and Xine is popular in many fans around the world

We do not repair the gtk+ gui, because we have moved to the wxwidgets toolkit for our gui. That said, in my oppinion (and nearly everyone I've discussed this with agree) xines gui is utterly horrible and does not work for even the simplest tasks. and dispite a possibly smaller team I think VLC has comparably large userbase compared to xine because vlc has better support for windows and mac and many more people use windows and mac than linux.

btw, when I need xines functionallity over vlc I allways use totem. Totem has a very nice and usable gui

Does it suppotrts CDs with DTS, DVD with DTS and AC-3, VCD ,Mp3? if can, I am keen to get it , where can i get it ? How about it's probablility , stable, and other perference?
For Xine supports VCD and VLC supports CDs with DTS, I want to combine they into a single, is it possiable and easy? that is to say, we abstract CDs with DTS code of VLC source code and add it to XIne !
