I think it's not the problem of player but installed codecs.

What load ? Player ? Animation ? From drive ? From net ?
I use Media Player for mpg, avi, asf and other microsoft specific formats,
Quick Time player for qt and mov, Real Player for Real videos. IIRC I have
100% success and short "load" time for almost every animation on PII 233.

Btw, do you know about povray.animation group ?
