No, not help :(

I have uncheck "remember last playlist" and uncheck "remember historic..." in the settings

[Shark007]

thanks for keeping up with this player.
Its been the only player I use since you forked from the HC branch.

could someone have a look at a new issue?
subtitle download works (for me) in version 4557 but seems to be broken in 4558.

EDIT: it may be be just me. I tested on a different machine just now and 4558 was fine there.

I just found a weird bug.
You play a video in mpc-be and pause it. Now if you open Windows startmenu and start dragging a shortcut, mpc-be is unpaused?

:eek::eek:

I can also reproduce this bug

[stax76]

I could reproduce it only once in Win 10.

:D:D I uploaded a video that recorded the bug

[stax76]

I believe you but I cannot reproduce it. My start menu looks different, I have this big tiles in my start menu and tab like sidebar where I can switch between big tiles and all programs.

@Ezhihua
I can not download anything from share.weiyun.com.

Hi, I wanted to know how to raise the subtitles inside the black bar of a movie contained in a BDMV folder, with MKV no problem with the internal subtitles of mpc-be using OVERRIDE PLACEMENT, while with BDMV it doesn't work.

[Aleksoid1978]

stefanelli73 - Blu-Ray subtitles is PGS, it's bitmap format and render "as is". Can't change position in options. But you can "move" subtitles via key Ctrl+Shift+"Arrows".

[stefanelli73]

Thanks ALEKSOID for the reply, very kind.

That fixed the problem! Thanks.

I tried, it doesn't work, with ctrl + shift + arrows it gives me the vsync

Does anyone know if there is some sort of API or mechanism that I can use to hook into MPC-BE's events like play, pause, stop?

For instance I want to run a script that turns off my room lighting when playback in mpc-be starts, and turns on room lighting when playback is paused or stopped.

Any ideas of how I could do this?

Not supported by mpc, players I'm aware of are:

Lua: vlc, mpv(.net)
JavaScript: mpv(.net)
AngelScript: PotPlayer
COM Automation: JRiver
C Python: Kodi
IronPython: mpv.net
dotnet add-ons: mpv.net
PowerShell: mpv.net
CS-Script: mpv.net

If only mpv supported madVR!

1. You can use the web interface. And see variables.html page.
2. See MPC API (https://sourceforge.net/p/mpcbe/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/src/apps/mplayerc/mpcapi.h).
Both methods work for MPC-BE and MPC-HC.

Small wish list: customizable fonts size & type in GUI; add some basic video&audio info.

Not planned.

:(

May I ask you why not? Is it technically complicated?

[ZoNi]

Oh, OK :)

Well, if you can&want, maybe this suggestion can be added to your "plan list". I guess it can be usefull for many who watch films on Full HD / Ultra HD screens.

I imported a playlist from another player which uses utf-8 without bom and some entries are broken in mpc-be. Is this unsupported or a bug? (mpc-hc works fine.)

I always forget this, added it to the mpv.net wiki now.

What is the format of the playlist?
Sample playlist file?

Upload playlist.

[mogli]

Problem identified: some filenames include symbols with character codes around 128000.
I made 2 sample playlists (https://www.sendspace.com/file/pn7lpn) illustrating the problem.

Thank you - opening of such playlists is fixed.

[mogli]

Thanks, opening such playlists works now. However opening them for the first time is very slow, the next time it's ok.

Also most youtube videos don't work for me anymore, hope it isn't related: The title and duration of the video is immediately found and shown in the playlist but it doesn't start and after a short time it says 'invalid' and 'file not found'. example youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFhllsDVz4c)

[Aleksoid1978]

Google change page formats :)

I've never had any luck with 'Open ISO image' if I use this it just does nothing. If have to double click in Explorer with Virtual Clone Drive installed and Windows presents me with the option to play back the disc.
Any chance of having MPC-BE work out of the box with Blu-ray ISOs? Not sure if location is a problem but I have these on a shared network drive.

There is no any trouble with Opening ISO.
MPC-BE use - DTLite or Virtual Clone Drive or Win8+ virtual disk
First - look at DTLite
Second - look at Virtual Clone Drive
Third - Win8+ virtual disk.

[huhn]

so opening iso with MPC-be is a feature and not working by accident like in mpc-hc?

if that's the case it is not working correctly. it is just opening the iso as a file not as a disc as far as i can see which may or may not work.

[v0lt]

ryrynz
MPC-BE mounts ISO images using Win8+ mount API, DAEMON Tools Lite v4 or Virtual CloneDrive v5.5.

As far as I know, MPC-HC is not able to open ISO images. If this happens, it is not opening an image, it is opening an ISO file as MPEG-TS. This is a stupid way to work with ISO files.

[ryrynz]

For whatever reason it's not working for me (1903), is it working for you?

[Aleksoid1978]

It's working perfect, all Win8/Win10.
If you use DTLite or Virtual Clone Drive - try uninstall it's. Then try again opening .iso in MPC-BE.

[ryrynz]

Yeah, relies on Windows handling iso files. Maybe an error message can be displayed if it cannot be opened due to external app having taken association.

Hi, on the reported audio dropping out, I'm having these as well, already since quite some time, over quite some version of various softwares. On all types of audio: AC3, DTS, DTS-HD, TrueHD, etc.
I recently noticed, and this is reproducible, when they are occurring quite frequent, and I reboot my PC, the problem is gone or mostly gone (very limited amount of drop outs).


I'm an the latest versions/nightlies/hotfix of everything, MPC-BE, LAV, MADVR, Windows 10, Nvidia, etc.
I tried rolling back to older versions of LAV (0.73, 0.72) and MPC-BE (latest beta, latest released) (Windows was not restarted) but that made no difference.
I'm thinking this most likely points to the OS as the root-cause of the issue...

[Michel Merlin]

Disable "Global Media Keys" in MPC-BE options. Win10 send play/pause event in some situations like when notifications appear.Thanks for the info!
More precisely, in "MPC-BE x64 v1.5.3 > Menu > View > Options > Player > Keys", right panel, bottom, uncheck "Global media Keys"

In case it is a driver issue, I'm using a new HP PC with Realtek chip and MS driver 10.0.18362.1, mpv, MusicBee and Chrome work so everything fine for me.

Hi guys, can you increase size of the flybar for higher res screens? Maybe set similar to Windows app % size? Thanks.

Sorry - but FlyBar don't support change size...

[ryrynz]

Possible though? I can wait.. Maybe flybar can be improved too? Graphically it's quite basic.
