Might be being compressed twice.

You don't have the DirectX 9 Runtime libraries installed.. a search should have told you that.

So many people comment about that dialog box. How about change the text to (for the end user):

You do not have the latest DirectX End User Runtime installed. Please install the following for full functionality: <link to website>.

The users need to be made to understand that DX10/DX11 isn't the one and all/only and that there are revisions and updates and different parts and whatnot.

Can you commit the compilation error fixes and 2010.vproj file to svn?

Hmmm... Is there a way to check what the dynamic range is?

Aside of that "trap" ... MPC-HC Compiler info in about dialog is missing as well.

I can't notice any other problem so far.

the "trap on exit" problem has been known for years, its caused because we use an insecure and outdated exit call. (it can occur when build with 2008 too and is the reason for the ghost mpc-hc some people have complained about)

patches are welcome

I noticed that powerdvd 10 audio decoder loads fine with dts hd ma with the internal splitter, and the video decoder works also fine with avc and mpeg2. It won't load with vc-1. Is there a workaround for this? there is one for old vc-1 decoder from pdvd 8 and arcsoft video decoder (vc-1 tweak.ax) but it won't work for me

Tetsuo. Regarding the problems with mpc and recent nvidia drivers. Do you know if any action needs to be taken ie any bug reports that need to be created against mpc or with nvidia.

Some guru3d forum members say the jumpy / jerky video problems do not happen in other players. Maybe it's an nvidia evr-cp problem?

nvidia claims to have fixed the problem in the latest driver, if it still occurs then open a new ticket with nvidia.

the problem is not MPC-HC because it works normally on all hardware except nvidia with a specific driver version.

The bugfix that NVIDIA made is for a different problem. It is for a DXVA related crash in MPC.

Yeah the problem still exists with the latest whql drivers from nvidia. Does anyone know if bug reports have been created with NVidia over this. I don't want to create duplicates but still look forward to the problem being fixed.

Quite the opposite. They don't care about issues that only one user has reported...

The more affected people report this bug, the higher priority it gets.

Yeah they will probably start marking it as high priority when the reports get into the 100's, maybe 1000's

Anyone can shed some light? Or some documentation page about MPC-HC?

I just want to know what ticking the "Dynamic Range Control" exactly does, and how does it interfere with soundcard settings.
