>''hurr durr MPC-HC is dead''

who says mpc is dead?

Also, what even makes a "good" media player? If it opens fast, has no ui/input lag and plays videos properly is there really anything else you could want? At this point it seems like there's little room left to improve

i have mpc-hc, vlc and mpv on my win10 pc

mpv is the fastest to open and also plays big bdrips over relayd-linked wifi access points better than the other two. It's also faster at seeking and has the best UI for actually watching things. You can probably get similar UI on mpc with some skins but meh

it also just works. Double click a file - it plays. No need for codecpacks madvr dxva directshow whatnot trickery

>>62322960
>At this point it seems like there's little room left to improve

Well, maybe getting a GUI from this century would be a nice improvement

>>62329821
There's literally nothing wrong with MPC-HC's GUI.

>>62329842
It's looks straight out of W95

>>62329842
the volume slider
straight from the 90s

>>62329850
That's why it looks so good compared to flatshit.

>>62329850
And? It's completely functional and doesn't even look out of place in win10.

>>62322945
Does anyone know if it's possible to have a media players overlay instead of madvrs while still using madvr? Madvr overlay pops up way to often and takes time to disappear.
Sorry to ask in here but there tends to be some very knowledgeable people here and it's the only reason I don't want to use it.
Or is there a way to tweak it so it doesn't show up all the time?

>>62329870
>doesn't even look out of place in win10

Oh, I didn't know that you were blind, I'm sorry.

>>62329804
mpv isn't fast if you open a folder with loads of videos when you have the plugin that enables mpv to work as a media player that can load videos in a series like the other media players can.

>>62329896
oh well i don't have or need that but i can imagine it being troublesome

>It's completely functional

>>62329911
Nice dub dubs.

Well I use it and it's mostly because I load series and while I've made mpv portable and as functional as I possible can, it's still lacking the basic features that MPC have, that's why I had to use:
>autoload.lua
>ontop-playback.lua
>pause-when-minimize.lua
>progressbar.lua

While I think it's a problem in the program itself that it can't load files by default and has to rely on a lua plugin that is probably the source of the slow load times.
When I open a single video folder it's fast, but if it's 12+ videos it's pretty slow.
I have no HDDs, only SSDs.

It's uniform, flat and just works. What else do you need?

>>62329917
Use arrows or scroll nigger. Or even better, just adjust that shit at global level.

>>62329917
Is there a way to make VLC not shit the image quality and disable 200% volume, and make it so that if I click on the video it pauses?

has anyone here tried MPC-BE?
it has seekbar preview

They just update lav filters from time to time. No work is done on the player itself.

>>62329889
Just got mpv just so I could confirm what I don't like about it.

With no configuration at all, mpc-hc kicks the fucking shit out of mpv so hard its not funny.

Now let me explain, If I fullscreen it the ui is smaller, it also has contrast so I can easily see what the fuck is happening, because I have a 16:10 monitor shit is see through grey on grey with mpv

But I hate watching shit full screen, I much rather watch maximized window. mpchc now kicks mpv's ass even harder here because the ui does not get in the way at all. while mpv obscures the video.

Now lets see here, on my old computer some videos would not play well, so I would wonder what it's using and if there was a better way to play it back, so with a right click and properties, I get all the info I could ever want about a video... mpv? no? right click is just left click?

I want to go to the menu to configure the keys... I can do that, mpv? no menu and no obvious way to do this?

Ok, lets just make the window a size just large enough that when I need the ui iut does not obscure shit, oh, I can't make the window any size that is not 16:9

ill give mpv that it plays videos maybe 3-7% better than mpvhc last time I did a test comparing vlc, pot, mpchc and mpv but that comes at a cost of less functionality that is user accessible.

>>62330058
vs download svp, get everything pre-configured with a player that has features without having to wade through raging autistic manchildren on /mpv/ for half working solutions because the player is in it's infantile stage.
Can't even load multiple videos without using external scripts, every key is bound incorrectly, mouse wheel isn't working to control the volume and has different keybind names for different OS and ruins the whole reason for sharable config files because of it.

>>62330087

Time to rewatch Jumanji for the first time since it came out.
All I remember is the drum sound and lots of water.

>>62322983
I don't think it stops mpc from working anon.

I'm still using winamp 2.95 as my music player.

>>62330087
> I much rather watch maximized window. mpchc now kicks mpv's ass even harder here because the ui does not get in the way at all. while mpv obscures the video.
but why would you want ui to be visible at all when watching a video?

>>62330146
>>62330127
Oh, and I'll do that on MPC:HC without any codec packs, just plain SVP that came with pre-configured MPC:HC so I can enjoy smooth video playback.

>codec pack
Indeed, what year is that...
I should download WinMX and download some video.rm stuff and install quicktime and realplayer

>the sad truth that macfags still has to use quicktime.

>>62330146
Just watch the remake senpai, it's much better

>>62329957
cd to the directory with your files
mpv *.mkv

just werkz

>>62329917

it is literally impossible to set volume to 100% in the right example, while the left you can drag to max

shit design is shit

>>62330182
A remake?
Damn, thanks.
I'll do that, but I'll still watch the first movie, then jump on to the remake.

>>62330186
>using cmd
Nah, I rather double click the first video in the folder and then use pagedown to jump between the files.

Too bad mpv don't know the difference between anime 01.mkv and anime 1.mkv so files that start with 1 and up to 11+ are played as 1, then 10, 11, 12 instead of 1, 2, 3.... 9, 10, 11, 12.

Maybe in 8 years mpv will be good enough to be a suitable replacement for MPC:HC.

After all, like >>62330155 use, just because it's old and not updated, doesn't mean it's bad if it has the features needed for it to work effectively and easy.

The functional part is the readable number.
A bar that goes from 0-125, when the control goes to 0-200 is just weird.
I don't see why everyone feel the need to display information with a bar as if it is easier to read.
The worst part is it is very popular for battery displays for some reason.

>>62330352
It's like they can't figure out that the bar slides from left to right to from quiet to loud because it doesn't have numbers.

>>62330285
madvr shits the bed when you move the mpc window from one screen to another

If I update MPC to the latest version will I have to reinstall MADVR and all my filters?

>>62330470
No such problem here, I use extended display and I can even leave in the middle of the two monitors without getting dropped frames.

>>62329804
But does it have subtitle download built-in like mpc-hc?

>>62330255
But it's not even released yet m8

>>62331829
Same thing with MPC-HC, but the screencaps are not colorspace challenged.

>>62322945
Why do you fucking idiots not use MPC-BE? It's better and more frequently updated.

>>62331641
Just use KCP

because of how things use to crash, I have gotten to the point I don't give anything exclusive full screen because when programs use to crash, they took everything out with them when fullscreened, I know it's not normally a thing anymore, but it still happens and I have a better chance of nothing going wrong if it's not fullscreened.

Its also nice to see how much time is left at a glance when there are movies or videos that feel alot fucking longer then they are.

You can find any movie at any quality online streaming for free in your browser if you just use few engines.

No need for a media player.

>>62336525
my media player is better at straming movies than any browser

>>62336566
You would have to use the browser to find the streams tho so what's the point to waste ~15 - 30 minutes just to watch a movie?

Anything can be argued to be superior to something else but people forget to mention the autistical amount of configurations and time behind setting it up.

>>62336583
I use kodi to find streams though. It's easier and faster to find good streams.

>>62336673
I use my browser for 80% of things I do on my computer and it's efficient and fast, required no setup.. dunno I will never use anything that browser can't do just fine.

>>62336823
cool, but kodi is better at finding the best working streams. I'm also getting better picture quality with a media player that uses my settings.

>>62336878
I just force my GPU settings / driver to override anything anyway.

>>62336889
Your browsing does not use the same upscaling algorithms. it does not have the same color management. and so on and so forth.
It's just not as good as a dedicated media player.

So what's the difference between MPC HC and BE?

>>62337013
BE has some new things like seekbar previews, but it's completely based off HC, it's doubtful that devs know what to do with it now that HC is dead

>MPV
It´s slim and works very well

>MPC
Need Codec Packs but it´s much better at upscaling than MPV

>VLC
If you like bloated software

I use MPV because it handles subtitle very well.

>>62329859
>>62329917
MPC-HC has a volume slider?
I just use the scroll wheel and the OSD tells me the volume%.

Who the fuck manually clicks and drags a volume slider?

>>62338984
>mpv
isn't it a pain in the ass to read the manual whenever you need to change a setting? it's a big time sink honestly. But it's a great player, it's extremely fast and I also found the image quality to be better with OpenGL HQ profile compared to madVR

>>62338984
mpc-hc is not much better at upscaling than mpv. with madvr mpc-hc is about even. You can achieve the same quality but mpv will use less resources.

>>62339018
>having to modify your current volume to know your current volume

>>62339150
> Caring about what the exact volume % is at any given time
> Not just using your ears to determine whether to raise or lower the volume

Do you also take your phone out of your pocket and go into settings to find out the current volume setting before changing it?

>>62338984
>much better at upscaling than MPV
