Aren't they a whole huge application mainly for a MPC box ?
They play in a window just like any other video player. They don't require codecs to be installed. They DO want to organize your media for you (per their product descriptions). If that's too much good stuff for you then I would go with VLC for "simple" video file playback that again, doesn't require codecs to be installed.
