Purpose of "Media Player" column?

What is the purpose of the "Media Player" column in the "General" table? I believe that in its current form, this column is misleading. The servers stream videos using protocols such as RTMP and RTSP (details in the "Protocol support" table). Any player supporting a protocol served by the media server should be able to play streams from that media server. Currently, the table has a long list of players for Wowza (which supports RTMP and RTSP), and just says "any" player for Darwin (which does not support RTMP). This suggests that more players work with Darwin than with Wowza, which I believe to be incorrect. Could someone with more expertise assess this?

Meanwhile I will change "any" to "any with appropriate protocol support", and change the Wowza entry to read "any with appropriate protocol support, including..." --195.212.29.91 (talk) 09:31, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
