@ Klaus and devs. At my resolution settings some of the new lines are cut-off !! For example in the new window size-settings the 'n' is missing in the lines:
- Letzte Fenstergröße merken
- Fensterproportionen bei der Größenänderung anpassen

Couldn't the option dialogue windows be bigger anyway ? At least horizontally ??

What scaling factor and what exact nightly build version did you try?

200% is fine here in options. Yesterday I tested r4661. Just download r4664 which is also fine.

Some people use that for video playback. It has DirectShow plugin.

I only used it for audio ... until I found AIMP. But winamp is till running on my PC: it wakes up the PC from sleep with ClockAmp plugin.

Why do you use exactly 158%? I think there is for sure a specific reason for that odd scaling factor.

No, nothing specific. I just like my desktop best this way.

I just installed the latest build (4668). The framing is completely messed up; all of my videos open in a small window now.

EDIT: I went through all of the latest builds. The problem begins with 4664 (4656 was the last version that didn't exhibit this behavior).

Thanks, I should have checked the options screen more carefully. Nice addition.

On PotPlayer you can literally just move the mouse through the entire scrollbar without any delay whatsoever.
I don't see any scrollbar preview at all, when watching URL movie streams. Why is that?

Preview enabled only for local files.

I checked how preview appears with local files, and it looks its not continuous frames, but rather a limited count of movie frames spaced by a given interval fixed in MPC-BE.

It seems for LAN files playback a user can accept even larger interval between preview frames, thus allowing for preview without network stream disruption. Also, in contrast with internet sources, a user can control LAN server sending frames that ensures no denial of service despite receiving frequent preview frame requests from the player.

What is the reason to block preview for LAN playback? Can you give more in-depth details how preview algorithm works, and where the problem can be with LAN preview?

First, we calculate the time by the cursor position. Then select the nearest keyframe from the list. Finally, display this keyframe in the preview window.

Assuming too frequent requests to a frame server can cause denial of service or saturate slow network, may be its possible to use some predictive algorithm, asking for next 10 frames at ones instead of just 1 frame? And keeping them in RAM until the cursor has passed the mark.

This would cut frame requests count to avoid network disruptions. Also, frame preview may be available only when movie playback is stopped to ensure no playback interruptions.

At the very least, can you enable preview when playing a movie stream from a LAN source, and block it when playing a network stream from WAN? LAN sources are usually under local control, local speed is much higher, WiFi access is often distributed through several adapters, and disruptions are not likely and easy to stop.

Preview support is implemented by the second simplified DirectShow graph. There are no special mechanisms for buffering.

Any plans to have MPC-VR eventually replace Haali and Sync? Time for them to go?

I don't think so, until they work as they are.

there is no point in removing support for working renderer.

mpc VR dx9 looks like an EVR alternative already.
