Is this a codec issue? Has something changed the codec on my machine that could be causing this? BTW all those files play fine in VLC. So clearly something is different about MPC-BE that does not like that AAC format.

Please let me know if there is a fix for this. Thank you.
All fine with playback AAC. If you have some trouble - upload problem files.

No need mediainfo - need problem files.

Recently I encounter a very strange and annoying problem.

1, I use Mactype on my Windows 7
2, I use it as a system service
3, I use MPC-BE 64bit as default player

Situation 1: When I use a 32 bit program to open a video(not audio) file, like from download manager of 32 bit version of Firefox, the launched MPC-BE x64 would not launch with Mactype, and disappear after a few seconds without any dump created.

Situation 2: When I use a program which is not loaded with Mactype(eg. when Windows Explorer is launched earlier than Mactype service), and open a video(not audio) file from it(by double click, not by drag and drop), the MPC-BE is launched with Mactype, but it also disappears after a few seconds without any dump created.

I am not sure if there is something can be done on MPC-BE, as it is probably something related to Mactype. But I am just curious, is there anyone else has similar problems?

Hello Aleksoid1978, here is the problem file.
http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/P...rtyb.mkv_links

It works fine in VLC on the same PC but in MPC-BE it runs in slow-mo on my machine. The original file was in H264 but the size was larger. So I converted it to HEVC to reduce the size. The Player has issue with both formats.

But turns out (and I have said that in my msg before) its just the Audi. If I extract the audio and convert it again to the same format and merge it back to the MKV file, then it works great. So I was wondering if my machine has some Audio decoder messed up somehow.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

canbonbon - perfect playback, no drops, no A/V desync.

It works fine here too with latest stable (1.5.1) using MPC Audio renderer:
- with all internal splitters/filters
- with LAV external splitters/filters

So something wrong on your OS. Check the filter list during playback to see what is involved. (right click -> filters)

Thanks I suspected that. Clearly something has recently gone wrong with my PC. I could have either installed something or updated something that could be causing this issue. Any thoughts on how go to about checking that? The worst part is VLC works just fine. So clearly, there is something that MPC is using that is messed up or is incompatible.

If you have any suggestions on how to debug/fix this, then I would really appreciate.

VLC uses only internal stuff, MPC-BE uses Directshow, remove crap like codecpacks and similar if installed. These only mess up the system and help nobody.

How do I configure MPC-BE to only show default or forced subtitles by default? I've found the check options for default and forced in the subtitles sub menu, but those seem to completely hide subtitles that don't match that option. I just want a setting for the subtitle that is selected by default, but still want to be able to change the subtitle manually.

If there isn't an option for that, how do I make MPC-BE honor the subtitle options of LAV splitter? Because right now it doesn't matter what I configure there, MPC-BE seems to always select the same subtitles anyway.

You can disable internal audio/subtitles selector.

Which option do you mean exactly? I've tried "Ignore embedded subtitles" but that completely disables the subtitle switching GUI and shortcuts, so that won't allow me to change subtitles. At least not without going deep into the filters submenus which is not an option for me.
I just want the defaults set by either LAV or MPC-BE (configured to my preferences). Everything else - GUI and shortcuts for switching during the movie - should stay the same.

Try to un-tick "Default track preference" check box in Options->Playback.

That's it, now my LAV settings are used. Thanks!
Don't know why I didn't see that checkbox before.

After upgrading to MPC BE 1.5.1 (build 2985), the player stopped remembering the "Touch window from inside" setting. After the upgrade, I have to select that option manually every time I want to play a video in full screen in order to avoid black bars. This used to happen automatically with the previous build. Am I missing something?

1 - try latest SVN version.
2 - if you use as in old version from menu "Video frame" - it's work temporary, only for current session. Global setting move to Options -> Video -> Framing -> Default mode.

I seem to have a problem with mkv files. The audio is very low. Is there a setting to correct this?

Did you want to say a quiet sound? Try turning on the option "Auto volume control".
