Video player classic для windows 10

Last week it was exactly 2000 days (5.5 years) since I have taken over MPC-HC development, so a good time to finally make the bump to version 2.0.0.0.
Donations are appreciated. In the past years just 2 people have donated, so I am completely out of coffee to stay awake while coding

Changes from 1.9.24 to 2.0.0:

Updates:

• Updated LAV Filters to version 0.77.1-1-g6f78a
• Updated MediaInfo DLL to version 22.12

Changes/additions/improvements:

• When A-B repeat is active, HOME button now seeks to A position instead of beginning.
• Add support for new LayoutResX/Y ASS subtitle header.
• Correctly apply scaling to blur tag in ASS subtitles.
• Some improvements to the FreeType fallback path for font rendering. Fixes rare issue of missing text with certain complex fonts that fail with GDI.
• Added new advanced option MouseLeftUpDelay. This delays the left click action on the video area in anticipation of a double-click. Can be used to prevent unwanted pausing when toggling fullscreen. Suggested value is 250ms. Disabled by default.

Fixes:

• Fixed a decoding issue with certain TrueHD audio streams
• Filename was wrong when saving downloaded subtitle when moving to next file in folder/playlist
• Fixed style issue with embedded WebVTT
• Fixed hang in SaveThumbnails on seek failure with an incomplete file
• Fixed issue with seekbar safezone in the case that video area is hidden

Overview of features

A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about:

• Play HDR video
  This requires using either MPC Video Renderer or madVR.
  After installation these HDR capable renderers can be selected here:
  Options > Playback > Output
  With other video renderers, the colors will be wrong!
  I recommend installing K-Lite Codec Pack. That includes MPC-HC and the renderers all in one easy to use package.
• Dark interface
  Menu > View > Dark Theme
  When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons.
  Options > Advanced
• Video preview on the seekbar
  Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar
• Adjust playback speed
  Menu > Play > Playback rate
  The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%):
  Options > Playback > Speed step
  Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction.
  Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer
• MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later
  Options > Player > History
• You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel.
• You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown.
• You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player.
  Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting)
  Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only)
• A-B repeat
  You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers.
• You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video
  Menu > View > Pan&Scan
  This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below).
• There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well.
  Options > Player > Keys
  Tip: there is a search box above the table.
• You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites
  Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder.
  Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL
  You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy
  Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder.
  Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced
  This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don’t want to put it in MPC-HC folder.
• Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D):
  Options > Subtitles > Misc
• Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability. It also has updated internal codecs. Support was added for CUE sheets, WebVTT subtitles, etc.

Generate Still Video seems to use a minimum of 10 seconds, so be aware of that. Image formats rendered by the internal LAV Filters will now have infinite duration (at 1 fps) so they are no longer quickly skipped over in a playlist.
