  3. give me another video players for playimg all videos

    For now, there is no alternative video player available on windows phone. It is kind of sad really.



    Luckily, I have a couple of suggestions.



    • You could convert your videos on your phone to windows phone format using many video encoders. My personal favourite is an open source software called Vid Coder.
    • VLC media player which is available for all other platforms is finally coming to windows phone. But we just don't know when it is launching. S
