Sorry for the stupid question what command should I select to turn off the top left clock during playback?
I can't find it.
Thank you

Great movie. Something like that can't be made today.

I have some 3D rips that I'm trying to play but they never come out of SBS when I press the 3D button on my JVC RS540 remote. Has anyone had any luck playing 3D rips? Here is the video info for the rip:

Hello,
I'm running latest MPC-BE 1.8.2 x64 with Windows 11 Task Scheduler to play a given MP3 file every 30 min once the playback task is triggered daily at a set time or by a certain event like Manual Run. In the Task Scheduler - Action, I set Start a Program: "C:\path_to_mpc-be64.exe" "Path_to_file.mp3" /play /close
In the player Options - Playback, I set any file to play 3 times repeatedly once open.

However, the /close switch closes the player after the file plays just ones. If I omit the /close switch, the player remains in Paused (prior scheduled task not completed) state upon finishing the loopback, and the task is not auto repeated at the next time interval. If that's a bug can you fix it, or would you suggest the right set of player run switches for the task?

P.S. Found a workaround: added the same media file 3 times to a playlist folder, and pointed the player to that folder instead of the media file, which allowed to use /close command-line switch.

How to get XYSubfilter to auto load vtt? Internal works fine, using nightly.

[lvqcl]

AFAIK XYSubfilter does not support .vtt

Hi all.

Long time user of MPC-BE using MadVR for video rendering and MPC Audio Renderer for the audio on my HTPC. No external filters used. Recently reinstalled the operating system and all software from scratch. Since then I have been getting this random blipping sound on the audio track. Sample in the link below. In this example the track is DTS.

The HTPC is comprised of a Gigabyte H370-HD3 motherboard, Intel i5 8600 CPU, 16GB 2666Hz Corsair Vengeance RAM - DDR4, WD Blue 250GB M.2 SSD, Seasonic 750W Focus GM-750 Gold PSU and the video card is a Gigabyte-GeForce-RTX-3060Ti-Eagle D6X-8G-OCwith 8GB GDDR6X. I am running Windows 11 and MPC-BE v.1.8.2.

The audio and video go from my HTPC via 'high speed' HDMI to a Sony 4K TV with audio pass through all the way to a Sennheiser AMBEO MAX sound bar.

I have reinstalled MPC-BE and also separately installed another instance of the latest MPC Audio Renderer, but I still get the same glitching in the audio track.

The blips occur randomly. When I playback the same portion of video it may or may not occur. The blipping does not occur with VLC or Windows Media Player.

The blipping seems to occur on only some video files. A copy of the MediaInfo for one example is included in my next post. This is in DTS format. However, DTS plays fine in other videos.

Here is a link to a sample:

Do you use Pass-through in internal Audio Decoder ?
Show status (screenshots) MPC Audio Renderer and MPC Audio Decoder when playback.

What show you sound bar when playback - PCM or DTS ?

Hi Aleksoid. Thanks for responding. Yes, it setup for passthrough from HTPC to TV to Soundbar. DTS shows as DTS on the soundbar when it is being played on the HTPC. Screenshots of the MPC Audio Renderer and the Audio Decoder follow:





Cheers.

[Aleksoid1978]

Screenshot from active player - when playback - right mouse click -> filters ...

If audio is passthrough - i don't know. maybe some incompatible with sound bar. Try change "Device buffer" in MPC Audio Renderer.

[fourbigkids]

Sorry, my mistake, here is the screenshot from the 'active' player:



In the meantime, I'll check out the Device Buffer

Thanks Aleksoid1978.

Thanks Aleksoid1978.

Bitstreaming has been problematic for a while now, turn it off.

I adjusted the buffer from 50ms to 100ms, the only options available, and the issue persists.

Cheers ryrynz. I'll give that a whirl.

If there are problems, then only a very small number of users/equipment.
The developers do not have a large amount of equipment for testing.

Anyone can sponsor the purchase of various equipment, but there are no volunteers
