where are mpc favorites stored?

[theeht]

Where does Media Player Classic store the favorites when you define them? I didn't see it in the program directory, and googling and searching here didn't turn the info up. I'd like to be able to back them up, so I don't lose them.

While I'm posting, can anyone tell me if there is a better app that can store favorites for various formats including dvd? Generally I like BS Player but it doesn't play DVD, or does it now? Thanks in advance for any advice.

there are two possibilities:
1) in the registry
look for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Gabest\Media Player Classic\Favorites"
2) in the mplayerc.ini file
look for a section named "[Favorites\Files]"

which one is correct for you depends on whether you have checked the "store settings in .ini faile" in Options->Player

Thank you! I will select the .ini file and use that to back up. But also, am I right in thinking that options for freeware media, including dvd, players taht will store bookmarks/favorites are very few, perhaps even limited to MPC?
