mplayer

Please have a look at the CVS-version of MPlayer! (http://mplayer.dev.hu)
It plays just about anything (including WMV8). They also have QuickTime and RealMovie support in the TODO-list... (or at least talk about it on the mailinglist). It is also the fastest DVD-player on Linux.
A nice improved Windoze Media Player 6.4-alike KDE-GUI to this beast would make it the best Movie-player there is on any platform!
Also take the DVD-menus support from Ogle (http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/) !

Why not just use aviplay. It is equivalent to mplayer (same libs), and has a nice qt gui instead of mplayer's ugly gui.

Because aviplay's underlying code is inferior. MPlayer is *much* faster and is more configureable.
I'd rather use a descent and full-featured player than some near-empty but good looking one.
