I mean, obviously not everyone cares but it works REALLY well being able to click to pause in MPC. Right-down : Go to next entry in playlist Left-down : Go to previous entry in playlist Right : Short time skip forward (10sec by default) Left : Short time skip backward (10sec by default) There are very few files like that, but I've seen one or two. I have also found that VLC does tend to play a few files that nothing else will. If I pause the video, or if the window I'm watching the video in crashes, it won't impact the streaming). (I've had VLC downloading streaming video before, and run another instance of VLC on saved file.

It is perfectly happy to start playing a video I'm downloading through another means (as long as the download is linear), and not have any issues as long as it does not catch up to the most recently downloaded bit. It is willing to stream video from certain types of online services, and save the raw stream to my harddrive. How ever, VLC does have some nice features. Unfortunately, the VLC build's I've used tend to crash when using the bar to jump. Vlc seems to lack a rewind feature, requiring me to try jumping back with the scrolling bar.

The problem's I've found with VLC over MPC, is that VLC does not support the Windows interface for media control buttons on keyboards.(Rather minor, but when watching something full screen, having a working hardware play/pause button is nice.) And again, I'm flabberghasted that nobody has ported ffdshow's deband filter to mplayer it's an enormous quality improvement on pretty much every video, and has absolutely no negative impact on level of detail. Unfortunately, smplayer is extremely buggy, and mplayer/smplayer have rather limited support for DVD menus via libdvdnav. Of course, since I'm a Linux user, these days I just use smplayer. Primarily, deband, which I desperately wish somebody would port to mplayer, and the occasional other filter like yadif deinterlacing or perhaps an unsharp mask. I tend to use ffdshow as the default codec in order to use some of the ffdshow filters. This will provide all the codec support that MPC-HC might be missing, since MPC-HC focuses on the mainstream codecs rather than the more esoteric ones. Supported by MPC.ģ) ffdshow-tryouts: This fork of ffdshow is widely regarded as the successor to ffdshow. It does accurate two-pass bicubic scaling, and supports buffering of raw uncompressed data (good for handling CPU spikes).

Personally, though, I install three things for media playback:ġ) MPC-HC: eed a player, and this one is great.Ģ) Haali's Splitter: This Matroska (MKV) splitter is better than MPC's own, but I primarily use this to get Haali's Renderer. After all, the author of MPC is the same guy who wrote directvobsub, and MPC can render the subs at native screen-res, which looks quite nice.
It also has integrated subtitle support that is superior to directvobsub. MPC-HC has integrated a good deal of libavcodec (same library used in mplayer, ffmpeg/ffdshow, VLC, xine, gstreamer/totem, etc.) Out of the box, MPC-HC should play back virtually anything you throw at it. You really shouldn't need any codec downloaders or codec packs.
