mplayer seems to play the most different formats, esp when you have the
w32codecs package installed. It's also very efficient. It can't fast
forward some avi files when you don't have the whole file though, unlike
totem-xine. The mplayer plugin seems to work for realplayer content e.g.
bbc as well. mplayer also supports streaming over rtsp.
