Is there a way to get Media Player Classic Home Cinema to play a file that is still being written to / updated?
For example, a TV program is being recorded as a .mpg file. I can open it in MPC HC and it plays fine, except it reaches the end and stops, when I want it to keep playing because there is more there. Close MPC and open the .mpg file again and it sees all of the video. Except it reaches the end and stops again, where it could keep going because more has been written since the file was opened. Makes sence?
