Download Media Player Classic Home Cinema v1.6.5
Posted by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 12/17/2012 04:51 PM | 49 comment(s) ]
Download Media Player Classic Home Cinema v1.6.5 This great open Source Media Player allows you to enhance, decode and accelerate a broad span of movie formats like x.264 with GPU assisted acceleration and image quality enhancing. Modern graphics card offer the possibility to decode partially or completely a video stream using DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA), in order to reduce CPU usage dramatically. MPC-HC includes an embedded video decoder that uses this technology, to decode x.264, H.264 and VC-1 with hardly any CPU time required.
This project is based on the original "Media Player Classic" and was created after Gabest, the original author, stopped. The download has both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions in the 7ZIP self extractable archive.

I use 'daily' build. Actually it's an ICL13 build, which by the compiler is compiled every 4 days. Current version is v1.6.6.6375.
It's great when combined with MADVR (currently v0.85.3), and can be combined with shaders in MPC-HC (although the internal shaders are pretty basic, I add in some other shaders such as a sharpening filter).
By using MPC-HC, MADVR, AC3Filter, FFDshow Audio Processor (which can be added in) and setting it up properly, you have by far the best video quality and audio quality of any media player, at least I think so.
The absolute minimum I would recommend is MPC-HC and MadVR.

I wondered why K-Lite always bundled builds later than officially released.
I haven't had the time to test add-ons but I'm off work from Wednesday so plenty of time then.

If you guys want to try 'daily' builds, go here.
Compiled straight by one of the devs.
For madVR, go here.
My personal preference for external splitter/decoder is LAV Filters; get it here.
And for the best & fastest softsub rendering, get xy-VSFilter.
With MPC-HC and those additional three (with madVR being actually optional), you don't need any codec packs.
Ever.

Agree MPCHC is an excellent all-in qone solution for movies and easy general playback of more or less anything. Used it for years. But "best audio quality"? Not even close. For that, check out Foobar 2000 with WASAPI output enabled. Like night and day. Foobar's clunky though, and this isn't.

You can actually use WASAPI on MPC-HC via ReClock.

Thanks for that. Will take a look. Will it work on the audio track in a movie, I wonder. That would be totally cool.

Hi Kinetic. From your link: (last page in discussion)
"No, mpc-hc x64 requires 64-bit filters and Reclock is and always will be (no point asking!) 32-bit only. "
That's a shame. Will download the 32 and try it out anyway but always liked the MPC 64 version (I know it doesn't make any "difference" in the real world, but you know what I mean?)

I were in your shoes, where at one point didn't really give a crap on 32-bit version of apps anymore.
But when there's just no 64-bit madVR, I had to give in. =b

That's what I use. Although MadVR is optional, it's a very good option. Lower CPU use and better picture etc
. I use the ICL13 build from xhmikosr not because I think it's any faster (although theoretically it should be on Intel), but it gives me a good basis to update it (every 4 days).

If anything madVR actually adds CPU use.
It still doesn't have proper hardware acceleration support so it doesn't offload most of its processing to the GPU.

does it do 60fps yet? I use Splash now only...cause of that. 60fps on ALL movies
except bluray discs...till they release that one
Progressive is a MUST.

yes it does. you just have to set ip up right.
using madvr, lav filters and reclock here..in fullscreen exclusive mode its allways 60hz/60FPS...ok i lied, its actually 75hz'/75FPS..
also there are new quality features in madvr and finally a custom color range option..FTW
