Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Command line mplayer is faster in my experience, but it needs a lot of tinkering. But it's worth it if you are on a slower machine.

video lan client (VLC) also works great.

MPlayer is better at playing avi files - a considerable number of my divx files won't play in vlc but will in mplayer. Ideally have both.
There is no need for you to use the command-line version - the UI/normal version works fine.
