How/where does one submit a bug report. 1.4.3 svn 5182-beta has a report tool that attaches the report to a text-based email (which fails to attach it's screenshot) but places no recipient.

Thanks for the info szl, so if this behaviour is a intentional it probably will not change, meaning that to play some files you need more hardware requirements, would be nice to have an option to disable the full keyframe scan, just for those who have old pcs. Another things, I found that mpc-be cannot play well some interactive menus (ie. the simpsons T2 R4), no problem with the other player mentioned above. Otherwise I would like to rectify my previous score, I didn't pay much attention and thought that the score was from 1 to 5 not to 10, I really like the program (specially the search preview and the gui) but at this moment I still find more stable mpc-hc and potplayer.

TGB, Yes, when the mpc-be opens "broken mkv", he consumes more resources than mpc-hc. This is because: when opening this file is full scan "key frames" and built a full index, which allows with a high accuracy to navigate within the file and accurately display playback duration. mpc-hc and lav splitter is doing less well, that negatively affects navigation "broken mkv".

Does not play well broken mkv (files partially extracted from rars), it consume more resource than mpc-hc and potplayer when it plays and seek in some flv files.

Speex audio is NOT working for me! Both MPC-HCx64 and MPC-BEx64 are now supporting Speex audio (usually live stream FLV cam video), MPC-HCx64 (released last month) is working perfectly, but MPC-BEx64 (just released today) is NOT working (always sounds like a grumpy old man in SLOW motion). W7x64 with portable version of MPC-HCx64/MPC-BEx64.

@El Heggunte Thanks very much. This is such an easy solution, and since MPC-HC already includes the two files in question, it makes me wonder why the devs don't pack them with the 64-bit portable version, too. Anyway, adding the two files solved the problem, and even the files that had crashed it completely now run fine. I plan to start looking into the player's functions more carefully. It seems stable and well-programmed. Just one more question: in "Options" -> "Miscellaneous", what do I have to do to get the "Color controls" to work? Thanks again.

@ jjg: MPC-BE should "need" just two files from the DirectX9 package, d3dx9_43.dll and D3DCompiler_43.dll. Download the portable versions of MPC-HC, unzip, and copy those files to MPC-BE's folder. Certainly things could be much easier if Microsoft didn't like to complicate things needlessly ^_~ Besides, the 32-bit should run fine in a 64-bit system.

Thanks for all the updates/improvements (especially the Speex audio!). Since I last commented, MPC-BE has been my #1 player, replacing the powerful SMPlayer. #1 MPC-BE #2 VLC #3 SMPLayer Dealing with 27 TB of video files, MPC-BE by far is my favorite player! It's just way smoother/quicker than MPC-HC. I can pretty much do what I want with this player e.g settings etc with one exception, I wish there is an option for always 125% "Zoom" level (both VLC and SMPLayer have this option/settings). Thanks and keep up the excellent work!

So far, this is a loser for me on Win 7x64. I'm trying to use the 64-bit portable version. Whenever I try to open a movie from my HD, I get an error message that says my version of DirectX is outdated, and I need to install a version after June 2010 or something like this. I have DirectX version 11 with all the latest updates. Why am I being told that DirectX is out of date? Nonetheless, most movies play, although a couple of mp4 movies crashed the program. In any case, as I've said. so far it doesn't seem to like my system very much.

Favorable comments led me to try MPC_BE. Media Player Classic Home Cinema(MPCHC)has two persistent issues for me: 1) Seeking, particularly in Flash files. Hit a spot on the timeline and the audio continues, but the video often freezes. It might or might not "catch up". 2) Playback of edited H.264 transport stream captures (using tsSniper). When a cut is reached, behavior is similar to the above. MPC_BE substantially solves these problems for me. I use the 64 bit version in my HTPC, and the 32-bit version in my VM. Seeking is much better and playback of edited TS files is also much better. Now, there may only be a tiny "blip" in playback past the cut. Not noticeable really if I didn't know where the cut is and wasn't watching for it. In other ways, MPC_BE is very similar to MPCHC, which is fine. No doubt this player isn't perfect, but I'm so pleased I'm giving it 10s across the board.

Tested it awhile ago. I would dare to say that this is beyond excellent. It's like your HC, but just better. It even shows album art while HC still can't do that until now. The only drawback I can think of is it's name, it sounded like an illegally pirated version or something. =V

I agree to the last poster's comment: I like this better than MPC-HC, too. So far it seems capable of doing what MPC-HC does (and it does that well!), it's as fast and lightweight, but the skin/theme is much nicer to look at! Also in the toolbar at the bottom of the video two buttons are integrated to change audio or subtitle streams. Very convenient! And the best thing - for me, anyway - it plays the xsub found in files with the .divx extension and displays them flawlessly on the computer screen! So far no other player does this, except VLC. (DiVX' own player also does, which I won't use. VLC is out for me so far, since its h264 playback tends to be jerky.) I have quite a number of DVDs backed up in .divx-format, since the subs look fine that way played on a standalone dvd-player, which is mpeg4-capable. And perhabs the most endearing thing about MPC-BE: It uses a differently coloured icon for each file-type (if you associate video/audio files with it)! I longed for such a function in all the other 'big ones' out there for a long time! Thumbs up and keep up the good work!

I dunno...something is wrong with me:), I actually like this one better than the MPC-HC. The last time I used MPC was like 7 or 8 yrs ago and now the MPC-BE is very good/close to excellent..the fast seeking in WMV/FLV is much faster than MPC-HC. The latest VLC 2.0.4 is also superb (significantly better than the 2.0.3), PotPlayer is also a very promising Player and last but still one of the BEST is SMPlayer (no body can beat the "." frame by frame feature and menus customization of this player). For me**, SMPlayer for 1080p MP4/MKV, 720p and lower MP4/MKV, FLV, AVI VLC 2.0.4. Will definitely try to replace MPC-HC with MPC-BE. ** all portable versions

I approve ... together with PotPlayer, both represent the best players.

Being a long time MPC user I just came across this updated version and tried it. It works great and also has YouTube streaming support. If you're an MPC user grab this updated version and check it out. Highly recommended!
