I don't understand how I could have broke that ... I will have a look anyway. Edit : Problem found and fixed in r3201.

Also as nobody seems to agree on the tooltip position, I will add as soon as I can an option to disable it, enable it as a "standard" tooltip or enable it as it is now above the seekbar. :devil:

[Underground78]

Hebrew translation: http://www.sendspace.com/file/togbmg or http://www.mediafire.com/?5r6cfycfnol26d0

I am still working on it, will be done tomorrow. I have no idea about the RTL flag so I will need some help for that.

Edit : In fact here a first test build MPC-HC_Hebrew.7z (http://www.mediafire.com/?p7992oyb26x1po0), can you tell me if everything seems ok ?

[xiulet]

How to disable the time tooltip?

When moving the mouse fast from up to down/down to up over the seek bar in "stopped" status

Time tooltip: I'm alive :p

on full screen , when moving mouse on seekbar, the time tooltip is freezing on screen very often.

adéu.

I've already noticed some small translation mistakes (hard to see when working only w/ the text file in front of you) and will provide a patch to fix them (hopefully this weekend) once the translation will get to the SVN repository.

I think RTL is a must here. Some of the strings in Hebrew are shown visually incorrectly when viewed in LTR.
I would check eMule's source code to see how they do it. They also use MFC and have some pretty generic function that turns the entire GUI to RTL. (specifically, one should look how the "RTLWindowsLayout=1" ini option is parsed there)

Thanks again. I really appreciate you taking the time to look this over.

Please test the build (http://www.mediafire.com/?p7992oyb26x1po0) I posted for Superb, it contains yet uncommitted changes for the tooltip that may fix your issue.

Looking great. Thank you.

This build is better than 3201. Tooltips are very importunate in 3201.

[InTheLight]

I'm having some trouble with video_ts.ifo files in the playlist.

Right now I can't get MPC to advance to the next file in the playlist after a video_ts.ifo file has finished. Playback stops, but that's it. The /close command also isn't working.

Anybody know if this should be working or how I can make it work?

Thanks for any help.

Edit: Actually it doesn't look like this will be possible, and it makes sense, due to the nature of the *.ifo file(s). Oh well.

[Underground78]

This build is better than 3201. Tooltips are very importunate in 3201.

I think I have fixed all the issues: the tooltip now always hides when it should, it auto-hides after a while if you don't move the cursor and it does not show up when the cursor just quickly hovers the seekbar. I will try to commit those fixes tonight, next step will be to add an option to disable the tooltip completely and to choose if it must appears above or besides the seekbar.

Edit : committed as r3203.

[v0lt]

Thank you. Much better now.

This new test build (http://www.mediafire.com/?x2r4fcpdbs31sab) should have the RTL flag but I cannot see any difference so I am not sure it works as it should ...

[Superb]

This new test build (http://www.mediafire.com/?x2r4fcpdbs31sab) should have the RTL flag but I cannot see any difference so I am not sure it works as it should ...Hmm, the GUI doesn't seem to be RTLed... So I guess the flag isn't applied correctly.

EDIT: after more testing, it seems the flag is applied to the right click menu! That's something. The rest of the UI is still LTR.

EDIT 2: Also, it is only applied right after changing to Hebrew. After restarting the player (where it is set to Hebrew), the right click menu becomes LTR again.

Do the dialogs (like the options for example) are RTLed ? Will try to do another test build tonight.

[Underground78]

Nope. They are not. Only the right click menu. :/

In this build (http://www.mediafire.com/?qb2p7fa6o906bry), I think everything is RTLed but the change is only totally applied after restarting the application.

I don't really know if I can do better ... :/

Edit : You can have a look to the installer (http://www.mediafire.com/?b1olm4tt9545db1) also.

Edit 2 : Do you have a Sourceforge account ? We usually put the Sourceforge email address (*@users.sourceforge.net) of translators in Authors.txt.

The green circles = good RTL. Should be RTL there.
Red circles = bad RTL. images are flipped. Positions wrong.

2. Settings window should be RTLed:

EDIT: just tested the installer. It's great!

[Mercury_22]

OSD it's totally screwed up in the last version(s) when using EVR ! :
Entering or exiting full screen it triggers the last osd message (time or volume or...) and it won't go away unless some action involving osd it's done

[Underground78]

That's what I thought, too much RTL at same places and no RTL for the settings where it is needed ... Will try again ...

@Mercury_22 : I guess I know why ! Give me two minutes to commit something ...

You've said "Give me two minutes to commit something ..." so... :):p
Also there is a message missing : The [DXVA] in the status bar also when using EVR !
But I don't know if it was there before cause I usually use EVR-CP and in EVR-CP it's still there so...

http://k.min.us/iOLXK.png
The green circles = good RTL. Should be RTL there.
Red circles = bad RTL. images are flipped. Positions wrong.

I have fixed the problem with the toolbar, the seekbar and the video frame. Unfortunately, fixing the video frame has broken the OSD and I don't think I can have both correct at the same time ...

2. Settings window should be RTLed

I have found a way to have it RTLed but it breaks completely the layout ... I don't understand since the same way is used in eMule and it seems to work. :(

Edit: I will need to move on and stop working on getting the RTL layout to work for a while. If you think the main window is usable with this build (http://www.mediafire.com/?tndsrtprgjva2ej), I would like to commit the translation as a beta version. It will be easier for you to fix/update the translation and maybe someone can have an idea to fix the RTL layout in the options dialog. Of course, I will try again when I have time.

Tell me if you are ok with that ! Also I would like to be sure I haven't broken anything in the non-RTL translations so please report back if you think something is wrong with the English translation for example.

[kostik]

How can I load subtitles using MPC Decoder in fullscreen 3D?

[JanWillem32]

Switching subtitles is mapped to Y (next), U (previous) and W (on/off) keys by default. You can view and edit the key mapping in the View->Options->Keys tab. There are several other command options for subtitles there, too.

The build you posted is a wonderful starting point. We can improve a lot from there on.
Thanks again for the time and work!

On another note, once the translation will be committed... can someone explain to me how to update it via a text file (as opposed to the rc file)? I saw a couple of scripts and batch files. Dunno which is which. :)

You should modify the text file and then use patch.bat. (You will need Perl.)

Also you should probably open a ticket on Trac so that we can keep track easily of your updates (see for example the ticket for Ukrainian translation (https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mpc-hc/ticket/1069)). When you want us to update the translation, just attach the text file to your ticket and we will commit the changes.

I'm having an issue on ONE computer with MPC-HC, when I try to fast forward or skip forward on AVI files it throws the audio out of sync by 2-3 seconds. Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Same files on different computer with MPC-HC configured the same dont have this issue.

Does anyone know why it is difficult to make the function CDTSAC3Stream::GetMediaType? Why do a lot of types?

Have you checked the filters used to be sure they are exactly the same ?

[mikeggsm]

I think MPC's EVR Custom Presenter has a screenshot bug: the screenshots (File -> save image) often have the wrong aspect ratio depending on the video. It has been that way for many versions, still is as of 1.5.1.2903.

That's why I use EVR which always has the correct AR, so DXVA is unavailable as soon as there are subtitles.

I think it is always like that with all supported renderers, the screenshot feature does not use the resized frame but the original one.

Well no, since it works with plain EVR...

[nevcairiel]

Press Print-Screen, problem solved.

[mikeggsm]

Press Print-Screen, problem solved.

Printscreen cannot save the video at its original resolution, it saves the black bars added in fullscreen (so the screenshot is not adapted to viewing on a monitor of different AR, and I have 1980x1200 and 1980x1080).

I'll stick with EVR, I am having really inconsistent and frustrating results with EVR CP: right now if I download this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5vWhdq2LDI (Valkyrie Profile opening on PSX), in normal fullscreen viewing the whole video is zoomed a little so it is cropped on the borders compared to youtube's fullscreen, part of the image is just missing (eg at 1:44 the clouds above are cropped). EVR doesn't have that problem and never gives any problems on any version.

Plain EVR saves a resized image. It also saves black bars added in full screen - whatever is visible in the video area. (it is automated at least)
I suppose you would not be affected by that issue if all your videos are 1920x1080/1920x1200 and always in fullscreen.

Anyway, I cannot seem to reproduce the 'video is zoomed' issue: http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/797/sdnkjsdh.png (single monitor only, though)

Could you please post up a screenshot demonstrating how much zoom there is?

Thanks for trying, interesting that you don't have that problem, for me on a 1920x1080 monitor:

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/838/evrvsevrcp.jpg/

The down image is the correct one (with EVR), it's what I see when MPC is windowed and it's what youtube shows. But if I put EVR-CP in fullscreen I get the up image: it is cropped vertically (clouds/flowers are missing) but horizonally the same content is stretched a bit. I think the aspect ratio hasn't changed, EVR-CP has zoomed the image a bit, which then takes more space than the monitor can display so it ends up cropped.

I wish I could use EVR-CP...

[namaiki]

Could you check:
View-> Video Frame-> Touch window from inside?

[mikeggsm]

Wow, that was it, thanks a lot! It was on "Zoom 1".

Actually I had just found a way to solve the problem: delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Gabest. But I had saved it as a .reg file, and every time I remerged it, the problem reappeared: I thought it was a conflict with settings of old builds, but no... (Underground78: yes, now I know why)

I used to have an aspect ratio problem with screenshots taken with EVR CP long ago (I posted about it here), but that has been solved apparently.

EDIT: no it has not been solved, argh! EVR-CP had solved the gray pillarbox problems I had with EVR, but this screenshot problem is really annoying and this time deleting the registry key doesn't solve it. Apparently it happens because EVR-CP saves the source pixels without taking into account the "display aspect ratio" embedded in the file. EVR doesn't have that problem since it doesn't save the source pixels, it saves whatever is on screen at that moment.

[Underground78]

Well the "Zoom 1" setting is saved in the registry, if you delete the key MPC-HC will use the default so no "Zoom 1".

[hajj_3]

isn't it about time we freezed the features and had a new stable build released, its been around 5 months. The official MPC-HC website still needs updating with the changelog, it still talks about vista, nothing about win7.

Is D3D keyboard issues fixed yet?

[Gleb Egorych]

Question about VSfilter as standalone filter. I use it along with Zoom Player and there is one interesting thing: if I load ZP from shortcut and start movie with subtitles then green arrow appears in system tray. If I start ZP from command line then the arrow does not appear. Is it indended behaviour? One more thing: after closing ZP this arrow doesn't disappear, need to move cursor over it to hide.

[kshycho]

How can I disable capture in Menu > Settings.
From the version 1.4 has been added to the menu by capture every program each time you check the TV card available. MPC longer starts.
In version 1.3.1249 does not have this problem.

If you got the VSFilter.dll from here (http://xhmikosr.1f0.de/index.php?folder=bXBjLWhjL21wYy1oY19hcHBzL3ZzZmlsdGVy) or here (http://www.xvidvideo.ru/) , then you will encounter problems like broken "vertical padding" and memory leak. But, if you get it here (http://www.mediafire.com/?wbp1fwdh2pigpr4) or here (http://www.cccp-project.net/beta/) then you are ok.

Please be aware that CCCP Project's revisions of DirectVobSub is fine (not broken and no memory leak and does not stay in tray icon upon closing any player).

[fastplayer]

Seeking leads to artifacts starting with rev3239. rev3237 is fine, so I assume it must be the changes in rev3238.
It happens regardless of container (AVI, MKV, MOV, MP4), renderer (madVR, EVR-CP), and splitter (internal, Haali).
