Media Player Classic - BE Win32/x64

[Aleksoid1978]

Mentioned this earlier, only happens with dark mode menu and changes size above 100% app scale in Windows. Doesn't happen on my other system running 1809.

Fixed. Don't need anymore uncheck in Windows.

I see in 4316. Thanks.

@ devs. A few months ago you thankfully fixed one short coming in the original mpc codebase to make sure that the main feature is chosen by default even if there
are longer features but at lower resolution on the disc.
Unfortunately if on the disc is material longer than the main movie but at the same resolution BE, of course, does not know what to load.
Examples for this are RAZORBACK (Australian Blu-Ray containing longer workprint) or APOCALPYPSE NOW (Theatrical cut and Redux on same disc via seamless branching), etc.

So my idea would be that BE does not only save informations like last position and audio track but also the mpls that the user had chosen to play on a certain disc.

Thx

[ryrynz]

Sounds like a good idea. Is there really no other way or determining the main movie?

[Aleksoid1978]

Is there really no other way or determining the main movie?
No way.

[Grimsdyke]

That's why I suggest that more informations would be saved by BE !!
For APOCALYPSE NOW this would mean that BE could let me (continue to) watch the Redux version (00022.mpls) where I last stopped (maybe using the Englisch audio track) or the theatrical cut (00023.mpls) with the original 1979 German dubbing or whatever configuration.
You could make this completely optional so that other users are not bothered/confused !

In general, One file One video stream. No offence, but find your own niche by lossless remuxing the file into better shape via ffmpeg.

Any hope for MPC-BE to support Clean Aperture ('clap') for .mov container?
QuickTime supports it well :thanks:

Output video pin from internal Source filter.
https://i.imgur.com/1fMVhQY.png
as we see - video size 720x512, but rcTarget - 720x480.
Internal video renderer - EVR-CP also as EVR support it's value.

P.S. AR('pasp' atom) 4:3, so we have 640x480 final video output.

[P.J]

Here's the comparison with QuickTime, looks like reverse attributes :confused:

[Aleksoid1978]

Looks like QuickTime crop from top, but there is no any info in documentation. In this sample height 512, from clap - 480, that's all. MPC-BE output as 480, that's all.

Actually, MPC-BE cuts only from the bottom and doesn't care about the crop values.
Hope you can fix it to read the values correctly :(

Very strange. In this file, clap atom contain:
apertureHeight - 480
vertOff - 13

I don't know how we can have top - 29 and bottom - 3...

Yes, v0lt was posted a screenshot from MP4 Inspector before too.
But I'm sure the right pixel value for top is 29 not 13.
Let's see if I can find more clues about it =/

Aleksoid1978, think I found the formula :) This is about to find the top/bottom numbers:

First, we need to calculate the cropped vertical pixels: 512-480=32 (cropped pixels)
Then check the "vertOff_D (denominator)", it's fine if it was 2 but if it was 1, multiply "vertOff_N (numerator)" by 2.
So we can find the right offset from the center of video.
In that sample, "vertOff_D (denominator)" is 1, so we should multiply "vertOff_N (numerator)" by 2: 13*2=26 (real offset)
But if "vertOff_D (denominator)" was 2: "vertOff_N (numerator)" = real offset
Note: "vertOff_N (numerator)" or real offset can be negative too.

Now we just need to solve this equation to find top and bottom numbers:

top+bottom=32
top-bottom=26

top=29 / bottom=3


I'm sure that same can be applied to the left/right numbers too :)

Fixed in r4329.

[Megalith]

I see this (for one second) whenever I try to open a video, even a low-resolution file that should begin playback immediately.

It's as if MPC-BE loads its skin, but then reloads it before playback begins. The result is that opening a file, even on a non-busy hard drive, feels laggy.

I don't think there's anything to fix but was just curious if anyone had the same experience.

hi
i just tested latest version
1.5.3.4322


and the bug with high res audio files
and wasapi exclusiv is still there
(files above 192k will be downsampled to 192k)


it was fixed with the latest test build from Aleksoid1978
https://yadi.sk/d/H3GEZ5vu4O0StA

but seems fix didn't make it into 1.5.3.

Can I ask you to have a "delete key" support to delete files while playing videos of a folder?

Sometimes it comes useful when scrubbing old directories.

It's support HEVC 10 bit, check in DXVACheker. Check with LAVVideo Decoder.

lav works, but not with mpcbe :)

Show statistic(Ctrl+J), show filters list when playback.

If LAV also don't work - something with your system. Maybe it's have more then 1 video adapter and mpc-be assign on different ??

When trying to open about 300 media files at once using the option 'only add to playlist', only about 180 were actually added and the name of the last one was cut off and therefore dysfunctional. Is this a known problem?

It's possible. Limitation on buffer for store file names - or limitation of WM_COPYDATA message.

[Aleksoid1978]

How do you open files - from dialog in player or from explorer ?? If from dialog - i think i know what's happened and can fix.
