New release of Media Player 6.4

[wiflye81]

Maybe this question was already asked on this topic but I can't find any answer : Is there skin support for MPC planned ? it will be great ( like TCMP or Winamp ).

Sorry for my bad english.

IIRC, having no skin support is a feature ;) :D

oh, and thanks gabest for fixing the broken avi splitter ;)

[gabest]

Alxemi:
Are you sure you are using the latest release of vsfilter? I'm just asking because sometimes users forgot about having the same filter on their hard drives multiple times.

heldchen:
No, sorry, there are many renderers from which it is not possible to extract the picture, even printscreen would do a better job. ("capture" becomes enabled after "open device")

Manao:
The avi splitter in 6471 was a little broken... But in 6472 the main part of demuxer code was fully rewritten. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/guliverkli/guliverkli/src/filters/parser/avisplitter/AviSplitter.cpp?r1=1.16&r2=1.17 :D

> Oh, also, I can't choose the ogg track with the internal OGM Splitter ( greyed inside the menus )

Which menu? play/audio+subtitles is where the tracks should show up with the internal splitter.

> And finally, why can't ( or don't ) you make DVobSub and MPC interact, in order DVobSub to be as easy to use as the internal subtitles renderer ?

I would rather make another subtitler filter specially designed for that, but maybe it would be even better to combine it with that video switcher (and with a more general bri/con/sat/hue adjuster). However there is still a high risk using video transform filters before the renderer in dshow.

arman68:
Great :)

cweb:
MPC uses the dvd navigator filter of windows and that can throw errors like that. Especially when dvd drive is not set to the correct region (in control panel somewhere). But it is also possible that you are using win98 and have one of those "macrovision-overprotected" nvidia drivers installed, which do not allow playing dvds even if tv-out is not activated. My third guess that something is wrong with the decoder filters you are using. Make sure mpc's internal mpeg2 decoder is checked in the options and you have ac3filter installed. I test dvds with these two decoders the most, with others there can be a few undiscovered incompatibilies hiding.

wiflye81:
Nope.

[Manao]

gabest : there are simply no menus which allow me to swap ogg tracks if I use the internal ogm splitter. Both play -> Audio and -> Subtitles are greyed. It's normal for the later, not for the former. I'm not at home, I'll test it further when I'm back there.

Edit : Corrected some typos.

[gabest]

When you can hear both audio tracks that means the internal switcher is off and you don't have morgan's either.

[Manao]

:D You guessed right. I didn't remember having uncheck the audio switcher. My bad, and thanks a lot, again !

[Loopback]

@Gabest

Not a bug, a new feature :P I read couple of times that mpc won't rememeber its maximized state when this option is on, now it does.
Good, but when this option is on, right? Now maximized state saves even when this option is off. So this is a bug, yea? ;) Small, but annoying.

[Alxemi]

Are you sure you are using the latest release of vsfilter? I'm just asking because sometimes users forgot about having the same filter on their hard drives multiple times.

:D Hell what can i say... that was all the problem. Working perfectly right now. Thanks a million for your hard work and your patience! ;)


Signed by a happy user :) :)

[quietbritishjim]

I've got loads of MPEG-1 videos that don't seek properly when I use the internal video decoder: when I try a random seek the audio seeks properly but the video freezes. It doesn't seem to matter whether or not I use the internal audio codec, but the problem does only seem to happen when the file has audio.

Also, do you think you could add telecide (like the virtualdub filter (http://neuron2.net/telecide.html)) to the list of deinterlace methods? It would make MPC the best software DVD player on the planet :cool:

Thank you for your reply which helped me find the solution...

I'm using win98, nvidia drivers, but not tv out, just my PC's monitor.
I keep getting "DVD copy-protect fail", both when mpc's internal mpeg2 decoder is ticked and unticked.

By the way, I use DVD region killer v2.3. I'll try updating that program to see it makes a difference.

Edit: There was no difference with the latest DVD region killer. I also tried DVD Genie - the latest version. WinDVD still plays my DVD's
as good as before, but mpc doesn't want to.

I did have some ac3 filter installed - I checked it was the same program but an older version - but I have installed the one on doom9 now.. and mpc works then...

I'd like to ask you - Am I correct in thinking that mpc would play back KVCD's (mpeg1) with an svcd wrapper (mpeg2) without needing additional drivers (using the internal ones) such as the ones from WinDVD? That would be great.

[billou2k]

Thanks for your hard work in this player Gabest , I've been using it from the beginning of this thread (a long long time ago;-) )and it's great!
I've been trying recently to use MPC with the command line to play a list of wm9 clips in wm container. Some of them have the 16/9 aspect ratio. When clicking on them everything looks fine they are displayed the way they should, but using the command line most of the time everything is fine, but sometime a 16/9 encoded file is stretched to full screen (without the aspect ratio correction)
It looks strange as I never experienced that problem before by just clicking the files. Do you have an idea what could be the cause?

[dimzon]

How about adding internal video filters -
Brightness, Saturation and Contrast like in Crystal Player?

[gabest]

quietbritishjim:

This mpeg1 seeking bug comes from libmpeg2, I tried to find out how to fix it, but didn't know mpeg1 that much. Maybe one day... :) Until then it is unchecked by default (on a clean system).

What does the "telecide" plugin do? Could you explain it simply in a few words, the explanation on its homepage is kinda fuzzy for me.

cweb:

> I did have some ac3 filter installed - I checked it was the same program but an older version - but I have installed the one on doom9 now.. and mpc works then...

"ac3filter" is not some ac3 filter, this is its name :) (http://ac3filter.sf.net). But are you saying that mpc is not showing you that copy protection error anymore after installing another one from doom9?

Don't know what KVCD is, but if it's just mpeg1 then why not. It has to be tried.

billou2k:

When this fullscreen stretching happens, can it be fixed by switching the keep aspect ratio option on and off, or switching between the different video frame filling modes?

dimzon:

Crystal player has an easy job doing that, it just plugs everything into one big filter and renders the video/audio itself from system memory. But the more you keep begging the sooner I make that video switcher... :)

[LigH]

Telecide... A previously progressive FILM movie at 23,976 fps gets split into fake fields and gets pseudo-interlaced to achieve 29,97 fps for NTSC. Inverse Telecine (IVTC) tries to detect which one of five frames each is the start frame of this process, and reverses telecine'd NTSC back to progressive FILM.

"KVCD" is just another try to optimise DCT matrices to the hilt to squeeze a movie onto only one CD by all means (fans will tell you, it looks much better than a standard VCD - others will tell you that 2-3 SVCDs would have looked much better...). KVCD or MVCD are anything but a HQ backup. And sometimes, such techniques even ignore the maximum size of MPEG-1/2 GOPs (would you like to decode MPEG1 or MPEG2 video with more than 50 frames per ... "GOP" ... ?)

[kwag]

KVCD or MVCD are anything but a HQ backup.
Maybe MVCD is not. But KVCD ;)
http://www.kvcd.org/downloads/704x480-showoff.mpg
http://www.kvcd.org/downloads/red-planet-extreme-704x480.mpg
( Complete movie looks like that on ONE CD-R ;) )
BTW, who ever said KVCD uses GOPs of 50!
The max size used on KVCDs is 24 (NTSC) and 25 (PAL)
For KDVDs, it's standard compliant GOP of 15 (PAL) or 18 (NTSC), and is fully DVD compliant mpeg-2 files.

[Kurtnoise]

Hi all,

Just another request for the command lines...:D Yeaah, Yeaah I like it. ;)
But what : the possibility to choose the number of audios streams, because my MKV or OGM files are composed of 2 or 3 audios streams...So, Gabest if you could add a new command lines for that, It will be great ;)

By example : /audio x, where x is the number of audio stream.

Thanks.

[happy_harry]

Hi gabest!

I have a problem with a video file i've created.
It's a matroska, containing an xvid video track, a 5.1 ac3 and a 2.0 ac3 audio track. With the latest MPC and with internal audio switcher on, using iviaudio.ax (latest) i got scratchy sound, with ac3filter (latest) i got nothing at all. :(
With internal audio switcher off, i got the selected audio language, i mean, which is selected in the options as default.
If i try the morgan audio switcher both filter works perfectly.
With Zoomplayer it starts ok, but when changing to the other audio track i got something like this: "... out of bounds". Morgan works with zp one, too.

I'm using spdif and an nforce1 (driver 2.03) motherboard, so it might be just an audio driver issue.

Előre is köszi a választ! :)

[gabest]

happy_harry: Is it the same without spdif, just as pure decoded pcm?

[happy_harry]

Without spdif it works (audio switcher on + ac3filter stereo out).
It's strange...
With spdif my dolby decoder shows that the input is ac3, but NO sound, strange... (of course with ac3 spdif + no morgan + MPC audio switcher enabled)
I'm using my dolby decoder with a pcm (stereo) out to bypass the horrible sound of the onbourd ac97, so it clearly shows whether i'm listening to an ac3 track or another.
Enabling morgan stream switcher => everything goes fine again.

[gabest]

Are you sure with morgan it isn't get passed through as pcm? You can check the used format on the property page of the audio renderer.

[happy_harry]

With morgan i get the ac3 track, my dolby decoder's display switches from pcm to ac3.

def directsound device: audio stream information - wFormatTag=146 (with spdif selected in the ac3filter)

def directsound device: audio stream information - wFormatTag=1 (with stereo pcm output selected in ac3filter)

[pankov]

I deeply appologize for the off topic post but I'm trying to contact Gabest for almost a month now and I see he is very active on this thread so I'll post here

Gabest, please, have a look at this
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65900

again I appologize for the OffTopic post

[happy_harry]

So, sorry.

I have just tried all this with "default waveout device" selected, and your switcher is working, i get my wonderful ac3s.
But with waveout device i get scratchy sound with movies(mkv) containing vorbis (i'm using corevorbis).
I hope it will help.

[uneasy]

Gabest: I have a little problem with a builtin MPEG2 filter. When I set DVD to fast forward (4x speed and higher) the playback becomes very jerky (it becomes a slideshow). This doesnt happen when I use clvsd.ax from PowerDVD.

[gabest]

uneasy: There are two modes to do fast forward with the dvd nav filter. What you see with the internal decoder is the frame skipping method :) But I'm going to check how the other works (it is quite new, I think only dx9 or xp supports it).

pankov: I saw your thread, but currently I have no time to spend on improving vsfilter in any direction, I only do urgent fixes/updates nowdays.

[uneasy]

:) Thanks!

..Actually, now that I think about it, this problem is the only reason why I still use powerdvd's filter. Also I had another problem with some old version of MPC's MPEG2 filter - the picture was too bright and somewhat pale, but looks like it's gone.

In the recent nvidia drivers I noticed they enabled yv12 to rgb conversion, but when it doesn't have coloring problems (eh :P) the picture is still too bright (black bars are gray bars). I'm going to make a few shots in the evening :)

[jimarick]

Hi Gabest,

Thanks for such a brilliant media player. I was using it the other day on an Xvid avi i got from someone. However, I noticed that the audio was out of sync and so i checked the delay settings in MPC and nothing was wrong (0ms). So I then tried the video in Zoom Player and Windows Media Player to see if it was the way the video was encoded that is the problem. However, there were no sync problems in either.

After closer watching, in MPC the audio at the very beginning of the file plays as soon as the video file is loaded into MPC. Whereas with Zoom Player and Windows Media Player, the audio starts approximately a second after the video begins to play. I think what is happening is that MPC is shifting the audio to the start, whereas the others are leaving it for a second, and hence keeping it in sync.

I hope you will be able to solve this little problem, or at least explain it!

Thanks, James

[gabest]

Is this a constant delay or growing as the movie advances? Could you convert it to a "sparse avi" (in virtualdub) and send it to me somehow?

[Perplx]

Gabest can you add an option to attemp to play quictime, using directshow before falling back on quictime? Alot of .mov's can be played back in Windows Media Player using 3vix/ffdshow/CoreAAC. They run alot smoother, then MPC using qt controls.

[jimarick]

I'm pretty sure it is a constant delay. I dont have any way of sending it to you as im on a 56k modem :( Sorry.

[gabest]

Hm, and what should I do when the graph couldn't be rendered? When to display the media type reporting window then? If I go on and try to reopen the file through qt the media types will be lost. And what if one of the streams can be rendered, but not the other and there is no quicktime installed? If I go on in this case, the user will end up with nothing.

[mklp]

I have installed powerdvd 5.0 and was trying to use the included audiocd playing filter (CLAudioCD.ax) for playing cd's with mpc on win98se. I know that the included audio filter only works with winxp which is why I was trying to get this to work. The "open cd-rom" option is greyed out so I go to open file and select a track to play but it doesn't work. I always get a "cannot render the file" message. I've tried setting it in the override section and selecting prefer filter but it still doesn't work. I even tried using it in graphedit and it worked no problem there so i have no idea what's up. Is there anyway to play cd's with mpc on windows98?

[gabest]

jimarick: a "sparse avi" can be really small, try to make one and see how big it gets after compressing it too.

mklp: Source filters have to be associated in the registry with either a file extension or some byte pattern. In graphedit, do you add this filter and load a .cda file manually, or can it construct the graph by itself if you drop it onto the window (or open from menu)?

edit: To setup the registry, add the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Media Type\Extensions\.cda key, and create a Source Filter = {...} value with the CLSID of the cyberlink filter between the brackets.

[happy_harry]

Hm. My posts were not so clear, i guess...
I used the forum's powerful search button, and i found that dzy has the same problem as me, and he has a really clear explanation:
"Hi gabest

thanks for the ogm splitter, is it possible to integrate vorbis decoder as well?

And there might be a bug in the audio switcher. If I enable audio switcher and use directsound for output, ac3filter's spdif passthrough won't work. The audio render audio stream info are the same, could it be the audio switcher somehow corrupted the data? the external decoder did change to ac3 mode when it's playing. It plays fine when using waveout.

I used to disable audio switcher to work around this, but the ogm splitter requires it enabled else all audio streams will be played at same time.

regards,
dzy"

I hope you can solve this issue, too.
Thx,
happy_harry

[billou2k]

Gabest, about the problem I reported a few days ago,
I've changed the playback renderer from overlay mixer to vmr9 and it looks like the problem of wm9 16/9 videos occasionaly not being displayed in the correct aspect ratio is now solved...
Thanks!

[gabest]

happy_harry: Isn't the 44.1KHz resampler or the channel remapper enabled? Try to uncheck them if the were. I think this may be the problem here.

[happy_harry]

No, they are not enabled.

[darkthrone]

First of all I really appreciate your work Gabest, especially your autoload feature of different non-standard streams when playing anime .ogm files which unfortunately doesnt work for me :D

Objective

I want my .ogm files to automatically play with the
-japanese audio stream
-english sub stream.

Problem

"Prefered language for DVD Navigator and the external OGM Splitter" does not work.

I tried to play various .ogm files from various encoding groups but that feature (Options->Playback->DVD/OGM) always failed on me:

-mpc still autoloads the standard-audio stream (english) and not the japanese audio stream (stream 2)
-mpc still doesnt autoload the english sub stream

I've deinstalled & unregistered all codecs and filters and started from scratch by installing these codecs/filters step by step many times, without success:

-Media Player Classic 6.4.7.2 (but the previous version didn't work for me either)
-DivX 5.1 (DivX511Bundle.exe) by www.divx.com
-OggDS 0.9.9.5 (OggDS0995.exe original version by Tobias @ http://www.vorbis.com/files/1.0/tobias/OggDS0995.exe)
-VSfilter 2.32 (vsfilter_20031208.zip by guliverkli @ http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/guliverkli/vsfilter_20031208.zip?download)

-CoreVorbis 1.0b6 (CoreVorbis_1.0b6_20031215.exe @ http://corecodec.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=11&release_id=113)

6.4.7.3
audio switcher + dsound + spdif is working perfectly now ;)

thank you gabest

[darkthrone]

I tried it with 6.4.7.3 too - still the same problem:

-japanese stream does not auto-load
-english sub stream does not auto-load

I think the fact that mpc doesn't even auto-load the japanese substream hints to an easy solution to my problem, but i just can't find it.

[gabest]

darkthrone: Sorry, I read your post after I had released 6473. If this doesn't work with the original splitter then it is either some bug in mpc or the LCID was not set correctly in the ogm. Just to be sure, could you upload a little of this file somewhere?

[darkthrone]

@Gabest: ok sent you a pm and icq message.

[opsis81]

I installed the free versions of QuickTime and RealOne Player
(which is legal).
I copied the files I needed from them in my MPC folder
(which is legal).
Then I uninstalled QuickTime and RealOne Player
(which is also legal).
Now QuickTime decoding is working.RealVideo decoding isn't working
unless I create a reg file like this and add to the registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\RealNetworks]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\RealNetworks\Preferences]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\RealNetworks\Preferences\DT_Codecs]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Media Player Classic\\"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\RealNetworks\Preferences\DT_Common]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Media Player Classic\\"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\RealNetworks\Preferences\DT_Plugins]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Media Player Classic\\"

It seems that Media Player Classic tries to find the locations of RealVideo dll files from registry.If it fails it switches to DirectShow and RealMediaSplitter.
It would be really helpful for me if Media Player Classic searched at first without checking the registry(normally if the dll files are placed in system directory or in mplayerc.exe folder, Media Player Classic will find them),then checking the registry and if it fails again switch to DirectShow and RealMediaSplitter.

@Gabest: any answer will be appreciated and many thanks for your excellent work!

[gabest]

opsis81: I only check for the codec dlls in the common dll paths when using realmediasplitter, in native rm mode I lookup the location of pnen3260.dll at DT_Common and this is the only file I use to communicate with codecs and other things.

darkthrone: I tried a few ogms of yours yesterday, but they seemed to open with jap audio + english subs after I set them in the options. I'm going to test more today, but could you check if really the original ogm splitter was loaded for you? In the menu at play/filters. You should see the selected tracks and a few other things in its submenu.

[oddball]

MPC never saves the pan & scan setting. I ALWAYS have to set it to 16:9 manually. Can we have a save pan & scan setting on exit?

The other problem I have is with Quicktime which I think is Alt-Quicktime itself being the problem and was wondering if MPC could work around the bug somehow (Even if the player is not the thing that is causing it). When playing Quicktime movies TV overlay fails to work. I have to right click on the playback window to bring up a menu and THEN the TV overlay kicks in. Very odd.

OK just tried in Quicktime player proper and it still does it so is a Quicktime bug with my Nvidia GeForce4 440 MX? Hmm.

[gabest]

oddball:

Are you using the "system default" qt renderer? That uses overlay whenever its window is not covered. I think when you bring up that popup menu it switches back to gdi and lets the tuner app take the overlay. Though it sounds strange, I've never seen any tv viewer being this smart, they just usually exit if overlay is not available.

> Can we have a save pan & scan setting on exit?

Maybe we can have :)

[darkthrone]

@Gabest, yes, I posted my MPC settings in my original post:
As you can see I disabled the internal Ogg Splitter in MPC and chose the correct language settings for audio and subtitles:
OggDS 0995 is installed too

I talked to some other people and they have the same problem, it seems to only work for some..

Well Gabest about TV overlay. Yes it does that with default settings. I can get it to open up with TV overlay working if I change the settings to DX9 I think (Not sure of exact settings at the moment) but that gives another problem. If I then change the pan & scan so it outputs the correct ratio I wish to view the TV overlay goes black/blank. So I suffer the non-saved pan & scan settings and manually do it with default settings which will give me TV overlay and correct ratio. It's why I want the pan & scan settings saved on exit so that if I change to DX9 etc I don't have to touch the right click for Quictime files. Well I think that's how it would work anyhow.

Would it be possible to add an option to blank all other monitors when MPC is in fullscreen mode on a multimonitor system?
