My housemates and I usually use VLC when we're watching shit on our home cinema, but I fell for the temptation to try something different because sper/g/lords said it was better.
Before transferring the movie to my laptop (slow wifi in the basement) I decided to try playing it from a network share just to make sure it worked, and it did. But when I tried copying it to my laptop the transfer failed at 95%, giving me a weird error message citing MPC-HC as the issue, even though the application (seemingly) wasn't running.
After rebooting my computer i tried again, this time the transfer went fine, and so I went into the basement where I hooked my laptop up and pressed play. About 10 seconds into the movie my friend decides that he wants subtitles because he's a massive faggot, and so I turn on the fucking subtitles. Does it work? Nope, movie goes lagging away at what looks like 5 fps. No subtitles for him tonight.
The movie plays, and in the end I bring my laptop back to my room and close MPC-HC. Guess what happens? Fucking BSOD when I close the program.
File plays perfectly in VLC, subtitles and all, no BSOD.
Why is MPC-HC so fucking shit and why in the world would anybody want to use shit that is this unstable? VLC does everything, and IT JUST FUCKING WORKS.
tl;dr: MPC-HC is a buggy piece of shit, VLC just werks.

Great argument, if people enjoy stable software they're not worthy of your autism. How's Arch working out for you?

>ITT: I have buggy drivers that are being crashed by hardware acceleration of MPC, so VLC works while raping CPU of my intel centrino thinkpad.

You think people regularly get BSODs with MPC-HC you utter dumbass? It's your shitty system and your brain that are malfunctioning.

If everything runs great but MPC-HC does not the only simple explanation is that everything else is also broken. What obscure third party drivers do you suggest I use instead of the newest ones from nvidia when I want to watch videos, and what is the fastest way to switch back to official ones when I want to play games again?

Are we magicians that are supposed to know what the problem is? Maybe look at what the event viewer says or the actual error code of the BSOD.

Use latest drivers and clean up your OS because based on your description it's fucked beyond help.
Pic related. Works on my machine. If I tried to run this file in VLC it would probably shit itself.

I don't feel like uploading this very video, but here is a torrent of similar one: https://www.nyaa.se?page=view&tid=686597
Also 3840x2160 HEVC 60fps 10bit. If you don't have at least haswell i7 or graphic card with hevc hi10p decoder, you won't play it smoothly.

Kaby Lake plays them with no problem.

120mbit 4k .. Though that jelly fish video is only 30fps, not 60.

Skylake does not have a proper fixed function HEVC decoder, only software mode.
Also does the app he used for playback uses DXVA native or copy-back method?

I tested it with 400Mbps video and works just fine on i7 4770 + GTX960, but the cpu does not matter here since it's the GPU that does all the work.

It's takes more than a $200 laptop OP
