[Leaplist] MMS

There are only two things I have ever seen vlc do.  Dump core or produce
static.  I have never seen it do anything productive.  I have only tried
it on Linux though.

Mplayer on the other hand works perfectly.  On the extremely rare
occasion that I find a file it can't handle I check and the problem has
already been fixed in a newer version.
