    irfanview for images, vlc for videos, foobar for audio - so much better than anything bundled with windows since forever

    Same. If I'm listening to music with something other than Winamp (and the default Classic skin), I feel weird.

    I am often disappointed by the lack of shortcuts and features in VLC compared to Potplayer.

    Just some of the few keyboard shortcuts in Potplayer I use regularly:

    "<" and ">" to shift the subtitle sync by half a secondd "shift-<" and "shift->" to adjust the audio sync by half a second "[" and "]" to set an A-B repeat of that awesome scene or soundtrack "D" and "F" to move by a single frame forward and backward there's also shortcut to decrease and increase things like saturation and brightness by 1% or shortcuts for 0.5x, 1x, 2x size.

    I have to make do with SMplayer in Linux which is awesome but you have to setup the keyboard shortcuts manually yourself.

    The most important part of Winamp is the global keyboard shortcuts you can set up. I have been using wasd controls for my games and my player since forever. Well, since I found the global keyboard shortcuts in winamp...

    wasd for games, ctrl+shift+qewasd for play/pause/forward/backward/next/prev and so on. Don't need to switch window, don't need to move hand away from wasd. Can't live without it now even though I don't have so much playtime any more. Works just as well in any other environment.

    WACUP = WinAmp Community Update

    Even works as a portable app.

    Careful, Greenshot phones home. Verified with a firewall restriction.
