MPC-BE sets a cookie when using YouTube. Is that necessary or would it be possible to delete it on exit or so?

You can delete it self.

Requests/suggestions
Under Options > Player

The correct name for "title bar text" is actually "window title." It is found not just in the title bar, but also in several other places, such as on the taskbar.
Regarding the aforementioned window title, the file name that can be shown in it and on the seekbar should not show the extension as it is currently showing, also in accordance with the default Windows settings. Therefore, instead of, for example, "Song File.mp3" and "Movie File.mp4" being the window titles, they should be just "Song File" and just "Movie File," perhaps with an option under Options to show or not the extension (if you can't check the user's Windows Explorer setting for that). Apps generally don't show extensions to the end user, logically. This would contribute a slight bit to clean up the player and make it friendlier.
Again regarding the window title, it's absurd to see indicated on it if my system is 64-bit or 32-bit, being a technical aspect that has no place in a window title. I see that it is part of the program name, that is, for example, "Media Player Classic Black Edition x64 - v1.5.4 ." If you really want that name for the end user, whatever (but compare it to popular programs, they aren't named like that in window titles)... What matters is: I wish for an option to not display the whole "- MPC-BE x64 - v1.5.4" aspect (the program name) on the window title. For example, a simple checkbox saying "☑ Show program name in window title". This point together with my previous point would change the windows titles from "Song File.mp3 - MPC-BE x64 - v1.5.4" to simply and only "Song File."
The current time and the duration of the file, shown on the bottom right corner, for example, as "00:02:12 / 00:06:21," should not show leading zeros. That is, the example shown should say "2:12 / 6:21" only. (The file is not hours long.) It would contribute to a cleaner program.
Now, there's a new section, Options dialog > Player > Interface, but you forgot to increase the height of the Options dialog accordingly, in order to spare the left pane list from overflowing, that is, in order to spare it from having its new scrollbar, leaving the bottom options Miscellaneous out of view (definitely confusing users). You see, the Options dialog had the exact dimensions in terms of height and width to fit the left list on it, but not anymore with the addition of Interface, pushing Miscellaneous out of view. At least, from the perspective of my system. It's pretty simple, if you can understand it.

Also, I'm very relieved that the new dark menu can be turned off. A lot of users wisely use something called "visual styles" on their systems (such as this one, or this one, or this one, or so many others) and the new dark menu theme clashes awfully with our visual styles, taking their place, replacing them. Only the default look makes use of the system's visual style, thus, I'm immediately disabling the new dark theme, and continuing to use MY visual style of choice.

I certainly have more important things to note, but I will experiment seeing the result of these ones first.
And than you for the program, regardless of its characteristics being one way or another.

to give you an update after having a talk with madshi the issue should be madVR doing the cropping wrong and not DXVA2 but MPCVR could deinterlace the video just as good as madVR. madVR is nearly for sure just converting the image to an DXVA2 complain format according to other information from him hardware deint seems to do the best work with 4:2:0.

pretty sure it's not worth the dev time to fix this for a very lower number of files.
maybe don't accept a DXVA2 incompatible colorspace when the stream is interlaced EVR doesn't accept P210 and get's YUY2 which works just fine.

Thank you very much for both MPC-BE 1.5.5 and MPC Video Renderer v0.4.9.1460

Hi to all. How to install standalone filter for MPC-BE and it is necessary?Thanks.

The player does not need standalone filters, which are already present in it.

To register a DirectShow filter in the system, use the following command:

Code:

regsvr32.exe filter_file_name.ax

Thanks guys for both!

Small requests for mpc-vr:
- can you modify the color of statistic from white to e.g. grey?
- can you add lanczos for chroma upscaling as well?

All is working fine now (although I had upgraded the video card driver as well in the meantime), no more tearing.

Exclusive mode is working fine as well, and switching to it is way more faster than with madvr (also no black screen)!
Setting it to 16bit float we can get 10 bit output with d3d11native in FSW and FSE. Really nice!

Overall: the player is way more snappier with mpc-vr than with madvr

Good job!

HDR10 output would be really useful via Win10 API

Can you guys add a configuration entrypoint to MPCVR to open settings through command line?
rundll32.exe mpcvideorenderer.ax,configure

example code

Why is this necessary in practice?

Not planned. Because for chroma upscaling this does not make any visible difference in comparison with bicubic.

@clsid
Thank. I'll see.

great video player
Thanks to all those who worked

Cannot select shaders. List remains empty. With MPC-HC I can use the shader function without errors. What is the difference between the shaders?

Thanks!

v0lt · 25th August 2020, 16:37

@Fred
1. Reinstall the player.
2. Remove Shaders and Shaders11 folders in %APPDATA%\MPC-BE\
3. Start the player.
4. All standard shaders will be restored.

It's blindingly white, especially when font size is large

Thanks, it works!
Use the portable version. Inspired by your note, I copied the shaders directories from the program folder to %APPDATA%\MPC-BE\.

I just noticed a bug: external subs will not get selected by default, only internal ones. It worked fine before this stable release and it works fine in MPC-HC with similar settings.

Example:
foo.mkv
foo.srt
foo.EN.srt
foo.GE.srt

Related settings:
- settings is saved into "ini" file
- Playback -> Default track preference is checked
-- Subtitles: en eng
- Subtitles:
-- Subtitle renderer: internal subtitle renderer
-- Auto load paths: .;.\subtitles;.\subs;.\sub;d:\subtitles;d:\subtitles\series
-- Prefer external subtitles over embedded subtitles is checked

So, the external "foo.EN.srt" subtitle should be selected by default.

Note, I use Lav splitter and Lav audio/video decoders.

Edit: b5347 works fine.
