Media Player Classic - BE Win32/x64

[cmhrky]

@Klaus1189
It can happen. Because I cannot interfere with some svg icons I use. Their quality is starting to deteriorate. I will prepare it by drawing it myself in line. It will look better at higher resolutions.

@Aleksoid1978
In live streams, the time stays in the seek bar when the status bar switches.

Already fixed :)

[cmhrky]

"Repeat A-B (Reset)" does not work in "Minimal" and "Compact" views.

I checked again. It worked now but I don't understand how it happened.

@cmhrky
Your toolbars are now on SourceForge.net (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpcbe/files/Toolbars/Fluent/).

[cmhrky]

Thanks. :)

[cmhrky]

Can you add App Paths (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/shell/app-registration#using-the-app-paths-subkey) registry entry to MPC-BE setup files?

For example, in Logitech SetPoint (https://i.hizliresim.com/iSoH5d.jpg) application, this registry entry is required to set it as a media player.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\mpc-be64.exe]
@="C:\\Program Files\\MPC-BE x64\\mpc-be64.exe"
"Path"="C:\\Program Files\\MPC-BE x64"

[tormento]

Try reset settings.
It worked. Dunno what went wrong.

Thanks.

[Grimsdyke]

@ devs. I am experiencing read errors on one of my drives but only with UHDs so I think it has to do with focussing at the third layer.
However I can rip these UHDs nicely with that drive using MakeMKV and on their website they mention that they incorporated measures to improve read stability.
Would something like that be even possible for a player ? I mean adjusting/influencing read speed, etc. ??

[cmhrky]

It works this way. But it might be better to add the "Path" entry as well.

[v0lt]

Our player does not need this. MPC-BE independently determines the path of its location.

The "UseUrl" parameter can be helpful. This parameter is used for example foobar2000. But I don’t know how to check if this parameter works.

Hi!

Is there a more complete French translation for MPC-BE? An update than the one proposed in the software?

Thanks!

[Klaus1189]

If you want to update the translation:
Download this mplayerc.fr.rc.txt file: https://sourceforge.net/p/mpcbe/code/5994/tree//trunk/src/apps/mpcresources/text/mplayerc.fr.rc.txt
I personally download it 2 times and rename one of it to the actual commit number like here 5994.txt
Edit both files in Notepad++ (open source advanced text editor) and edit the mplayerc.fr.rc.txt, then you can compare both with built in extension "Compare" the differences. Note: you must install the extension Compare in plugins options.
I know there might be better text editors, built Notepad++ does what I need and also preserves text coding of the file like UTF-8, with or without BOM and I am happy with it :)

[cmhrky]

If these lines are not added to the Logitech Setpoint (http://support.logitech.com/software/setpoint) application "players.ini" file, the keyboard multimedia keys cannot be used with MPC-BE.

"players.ini" default location: "C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPointP"

The player will not edit the settings of other applications.

[cmhrky]

I wrote it for information purposes. To make it appear in searches.

[v0lt]

About SVG graphics (toolbar.svg and flybar.svg).
I made a small utility svg2png (https://github.com/v0lt/svg2png/) that converts SVG to PNG using the Nano SVG library. This same library is used to render some of the controls in the MPC-BE and MPC-HC players.

[cmhrky]

Can an option be added to have the chapter names constantly appear in the seek bar along with the filename / title?

"title/name & Chapter: ......."

What is your opinion on this matter?

I would like to have this option, too.

I have bought the DTS Headphone:X from MS store and it automatically installed DTS:X decoder that is pure garbage for movies.

Is there any way to prefer the LAV Audio decoder within MPC-BE? I have tried to play with external filter settings but no success.

[Perenista]

I am using the codecs found here:
http://codecguide.com/download_kl.htm

To be more specific, Mega. Also using MPC-BE.

In both MPC-HC and BE I opted for the ffdshow audio processor, only due to its capacity to increase the volume (plus 5 dB). My headphone isn't too loud even at 100%. So I changed MPC settings to prefer ffdshow to handle audio tracks.

When I downloaded this track: https://soundcloud.com/vincentsejourne/epilogue

Created by this author... a MP3...

And tried to listen at the 7 second moment... I could hear a background noise, for more or less 2 seconds.

Then I opened the same MP3 with Sound Forge, and told both MPC to disable ffdshow audio processor.

The noise wasn't there.

So why this is happening? Could it be a bug?

And what options do I have for increasing the volume beyond 100%? My headphone is a Sennheiser 598 SR.

Noise when using ffdshow audio processor ? If so - don't use it.

Do you have a soundcard that has a headphone amp, a stand alone headphone amp or a DAC with a headphone amp?

[ryrynz]

Devs, push update to Dav1d plz, ty.

[hubblec4]

Support for the "ProjectionPoseRoll" element was added in MPC-BE 1.5.6.5997.


Where can I download this version?

Do you have a soundcard that has a headphone amp, a stand alone headphone amp or a DAC with a headphone amp?I think the answer is NO for all these questions. And isn't adjusting the volume beyond 100% a software task?

If so why the LAV Audio Decoder lacks that option while ffdshow audio processor (with the aforementioned bug) has it?

[chros]

I hope you realize sooner or later that LAV filters have nothing to do with MPC-BE. Also, if this option wasn't added in the past few years then there's a good reason for it.

[huhn]

because changing audio over 100 % has a extrem high chance of creating clipping and that really really bad just plain wrong.
the alternative to make audio "louder" without clipping is DRC dynamic range compression this just lowers audio quality and a filter like AC3 filter can do that.

MPC-BE 1.5.6 (build 6000) stable (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpcbe/files/MPC-BE/Release%20builds/1.5.6/) with digital signature (SF.net).

List of changes (https://sourceforge.net/p/mpcbe/code/6000/tree//trunk/docs/Changelog.txt).

MPC-BE Nightly builds: main file store (https://yadi.sk/d/hlf1lfC8mKU58), alternative 1 (https://yadi.sk/d/AjAXDDHtHRIELg), alternative 2 (https://cloud.mail.ru/public/V1rp/2iqNDT5Rx)
Also new and old versions can be found on VideoHelp.com (https://www.videohelp.com/software/MPC-BE).

[ryrynz]

Thank you all devs, BE becomes more and more polished. Great work.

[cmhrky]

Thank you for the new stable release. I am looking forward to new updates. :)

[hubblec4]

I have tested the new stable for the ProjectionPoseRoll element to rotate a video.
It seems to work with the "standard" values (90, 180, -90, -180).

Is there a reason why only the standard values works? What is with the other values? Is it not possible to rotate the video with a value of 10 or -45?

[v0lt]

MPC-BE supports rotation in multiples of 90. Arbitrary rotation angles are not supported and we do not plan to support this in our video renderers.

[tormento]

MPC-BE 1.5.6 (build 6000)
I always play with nightly but every stable is a great goal.

Thanks to all programmers/contributors for your job!

:thanks:

[foxyshadis]

Boost (with limiting, preferably) is incredibly valuable, but also definitely isn't related in any way to MPC-BE. I mean its toolbar volume control maybe but... I doubt anyone wants to change that after all these years.

Thank you all devs, BE becomes more and more polished. Great work.

indeed

whats missing now is blu ray menu support :-)
why ?

i have some blu rays that contain full series with 20+ episodes + extras.
using "jump to" to select episodes is not very comfortable.


and i have a blu ray that contains a movie with 2 different endings
the main movie without ending exists only once and which of the 2 endings is played is selected by the menu.

without blu ray menu the movie is always played with ending a
with "jump to" you can select ending b but only the ending

it is not possible to view the movie with ending b
hope you understand what i mean

i hope mpc be will support blu ray menus in the future.
:cool:

Could you make the letter spacing in the subtitles tab, the same way you made border width and shadow depth - like 2.5 etc. In spacing we can choose only 1,2,3 but in the other options two we can choose 1.2, 1.3 etc.?

Try adapting directshow Bluray disc navigator filter (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=164314) for MPC-BE or MPC-HC. If you succeed, then we will try to implement support in the player.

What device and what software on it was used for creating these *.ts files?

[cmhrky]

This file was recorded with the Next 64 (https://www.next.com.tr/64) satellite receiver.

@ryrynz
I prepared 2 files of different thickness. I added it inside the zip file.

@volt, @Grimsdyke

https://i.hizliresim.com/s62ht1.jpg (https://www.sendspace.com/file/v3d50p)

Thanks, I'm using toolbar 2 (there are four in the zip). I thought one of them would be the new default in the latest version, but had to do the manual replacing (btw devs - not intuitive).

[LuckyJim]

[...]but had to do the manual replacing (btw devs - not intuitive).

Would you mind sharing how you did that? I already replaced the logos in FILE 197 : 1033 and 210 : 1033 but couldn't figure out how to replace the toolbar.
