Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) - v1.7.13

[kasper93]

We use Microsoft filter for online sources File Source (URL) and this is how this filter works. It shouldn't cache all the data, but it does and I think 4GB limit is because you are using FAT32 which doesn't allow larger files.

The best solution for you is using LAV Source Splitter for http. You need to add this to register. Past it to notepad and save as "http.reg" then double click on it and that's all. Note that you need to have LAV installed

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http]
"Source Filter"="{B98D13E7-55DB-4385-A33D-09FD1BA26338}"

FWIW, you could try using DVB directly in MPC-HC it is not that bad

Great

As a programmer i've always really enjoyed the usability and UI design, not so much in the important things that I can't see. MPC functionality isn't that good for users who sit on the sofa with a remote, so I made some changes to MPC for my personal use. Could you consider adding some of these features if those are well made, and function as expected to make the user experience better for remote use?

For example I did this today and I think it would be a good add but dunno if it's just me. On fullscreen, if user presses play, pause, rewind, or skip, mpc shows the narrow mpc seekbar for 5 seconds. Also I thought I add also this. With the previous function it would also show local time on right or left corner.

After 2 and a half months since the last stable build, we decided to release 1.6.5.

This release has many bugfixes and some new features.

Highlights of this release:

* Some long standing issues for the Internal Subtitle Renderer/VSFilter have been fixed:

- Support UTF-8 subtitles without BOM
- Fix high memory usage with complex subtitles (mostly ASS)
- Fix most cases where subtitles are not correctly positioned
- Allow floating-point values for \fscx and \fscy in ASS subtitles

* Windows 8 is now officially supported and the file association problem has been solved.
  Windows 8 users should click the "Set Default Programs" button after selecting new formats.

* The DVB support has been improved with a better handling of DVB subtitles
  and a clearer display of the Electronic Program Guide information when using live capture.

You can download the new version here. For the complete changes see the changelog.

Yeah, I saw the commit and can verify that 1.6.5.6366 (744df1c; final) indeed fixes the issue. Thx guys.

I'm not sure if this is appropriate for MPC-HC but would it be possible to start adding visualizations for music files in MPC-HC? I listen to all of my music in MPC-HC along with my videos and movies and it would increase the appeal of the player as well.

Thanks and awesome job on the new official release!

[ryrynz]

Appropriate yes, but I don't see it happening any time soon if ever, use WMP or similar.

I'm sorry but adding visualizations would lower MPC-HC value.

Have you enabled any formats? (the button should be grayed out if you haven't)

Have you tried pressing the "Modify" button to get elevated privileges before pressing the "Set Default Programs" button? (it worked without elevated privileges for me)

I made a test version of the fullscreen controls.

This mimics WMC functionality, which I think is pretty well thought so that you'll see where the movie is going when you fwd and can check the playtime by pressing the play during playback:
Play, toolbar 5 sec
Pause, toolbar 5 sec
Stop, toolbar 5 sec
Rewind/Forward toolbar until play,pause or stop, 5sec

This doesn't affect (I think) mouse users. In fullscreen you will only see this functionality when using remote or keyboard shortcuts for play,pause,stop,rew and fwd.

I mapped the remote keys so you shouldn't need to set those when you test this.

How would it lower it? In my head it's with the same thought process that people have made alternative toolbar skins for MPC-HC. There is obviously no functional value to the toolbar looking different but it just looks nicer.

Plus it appeals to users who are coming from other commercial players and are ready to look for something that is more flexible and better overall. New people count looks as a factor whether most of us here consider it a factor or not.

I myself don't set that much value on the aesthetic design of something that is built with minimalism at the forefront but that doesn't mean MPC-HC has to be devoid of it.

[pirlouy]

But I'm just a troll who will cry for bloated application if there are visualizations in a video player !

Incorrect at the moment , but would be corrected if U ever submit the patch to them ( in advance if U ever did that). Just wonder would U consider to share it to xy-vsfilter if they requested it too.

for your contribution in everything.
