The Best! FINALLY they fixed the volume normalization bug that I had with the first version I started with! It took them sooo long... 2 years? MPC RULES!!!!

Stick with v6482. This unofficial v6483 is very, very buggy. I disabled both the internal MPEG & AVI audio filters as instructed and still couldn't get it to close without generating errors. Starts up much slower, is slower to start playing the video and generally feels bloated compared to 6482. Not a good release. Stay away from it and stick with 6482 instead.

This is my default player for DVD's (for AVI files I use BSPlayer mostly). IMO this player has a better picture with DVD's than PowerDVD, and it's freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. No contest.

My default player for EVERYTHING. No fancy skins, just plays files like it should. Ditch all your video players and use this one.

If only it was updated by the author. I hear he took off on his own forums and went to work on a DirectX plugin for a PS2 emulator or something of that sort. I would LOVE for this program to be updated. if only he knew how many users he would relieve by doing so...

Excelent player! I'm using for more than 1 year and is the best! Can play everything, including DVD's (for DVD from HDD just select VIDEO_TS.IFO) and RealTime/QuickTime. A little complicate for navigation menu of DVD's, but this is a small problem. Congratiulations for the author!

Must agree also with previous poster, Never had used this great little player, until finally installing the real & quicktime alternatives. My fav player now, all the others have been deleted from my system. Huge thumbs up to the developers. Thanks

great product, except Keep Aspect Ratio has errors sometimes with it on: a 320:240 with a ASPECT RATIO of 4:3 enbedded in it will apply the 4:3 ratio to the 320:240 file... making it a 16:9 with it off: (to fix above problem) svcd does not apply the ratio, and movie looks messed up

I have made this comment before but I would like to make users aware of it again. The louder the volume gets in a video, the lower the volume will go down to "normalize" it with the rest of the audio. After the loudness goes down, the volume will not automatically return to the previous audio level. I think you will find that if you watch a movie and simply click the timeline at the current duration you are at, you will notice the volume increases. MPC has had this problem for several versions and needs to be fixed.

Works better than mplayer2 but when you try and right click on a mpg and open with it cant find the file to play.

Fantastic player that plays VIDEO_TS folders, M2v, Mpv with no problems. Excellent for DVD authorers looking to preview thier DVDs before burning them. I noticed my xvid movies with ac3 soundtracks played just fine. The ac3 decoding is built into this player so there is no need to install a ac3 filter into your system.

AWESOME is the best word. It brings all the abilities of WMP, realplayer, quicktime into a package that is as friendly as WMP 6.4 and eats about as much resources as well. This things plays just about everything perfectly. Only reason I still even have WMP9 installed is that MPC doesnt have brightness controls for nonmpeg videos. If it gets that, goodbye WMP9. To the developers, GREAT WORK guys!

Thank God! and these people. WMP9 is a bloated newbie player. I didn't want to take the time to strip XP from my new 2.8 ghz laptop but WMP9 was one of my main gripes. I had a .mpg1 that I ripped to use in a Powerpoint presentation that kept hanging at certain points when played back. Media Player classic didn't have that problem. Now if I could just get 'Web View" back in my folders.......

not a bad player...plays a good number of codecs...HOWEVER, you must have these codecs already installed...not like videolan player which has built in codecs...

The only problem I have with this program is an audio issue. For example, if I am watching DV footage that isn't too loud and then someone claps near the camera, the volume level goes down and doesn't go back up and I have to browse on the timeline just after the clapping to regain the volume level. This does not happen with Zoom Player but I prefer MPC. Can someone suggest a solution to this problem for me?

march 16, 2004 change log Changes: Mpeg video decoder: implemented frame-dropping (b-frames only) when running late and added a new sse2 idct (intel's code, AP-945), now high-definition clips should keep the sync at least :) Mpeg splitter: plays discontinuous/joint files to the end but seeking still broken with those, also recognizes aac streams and misdetects others as lpcm less frequently New aac decoder based on libfaad, coreaac didn't handle mpeg's aac very well for some reason (he-aac, stereo downmixing supported) Volume normalizer can be "boosted" a bit in case you find the level still low, look for the slider next to the normalize checkbox Added a /nofocus command line switch. Guess what it does! Through the web interface browse.html also accepts a focus=no GET parameter with the same effect More fine tuning of the internal splitters' packet buffering. Fixed the "higher than normal" priority option, it was not applied after reopening the player. New option to launch files in fullscreen (checkbox at options/player) 7th internal logo by Steve Smith (looks very nice), if you made any in the past contact me again and I'll add your name to the logo chooser page, next to your logo. For now with the exception of the new one, only an "Author unknown" text will be displayed there because I can't remember which one came from who Fixed the file browser not displaying anything on cd drives under xp, when the recording feature of the operating system is enabled Almost 200KB increase in file size! No, it's not (just) the logo (~50k compressed), but libfaad was also huge :) For those who can recompile the sources: running filters.bat is no longer needed. After adding the lib of the new aac decoder onto the list VC couldn't link it anymore (it crashed...), so I had to add each lib separately to the additional dependecies of mpc to overcome this problem.

Ooops... of course it needs codecs. What I wanted to say below was that MPC doesn't need a separate mpeg2 decoder (it has it built-in).

Just brilliant! No need for codecs, no installation, no fancy system overload bs, no hassles! Plain, easy, effective, all-in-one player. A must!

An excellent program which I have used since the very earliest versions. My only gripe is that updates get released a little *too* frequently, with barely a week going by without seeing a new decimal point increment in circulation. Unfortunately 6.4.7.8 (the most recent update @ time of writing) breaks .ASX playlist support. I had to revert to 6.4.7.7 to play my existing .ASX files. Shame :(

YES!!! Image Capture from video implemented. This makes MPC even better! A++. Notice how I rated "Value for money" as 1. Basically, I feel this should always be freeware. Awesome program!

This is brilliant. I have noticed tho, it sometimes chokes and locks up when playing ac3 sound files. A reboot USUALLY fixes this, so maybe it's not a MPC 6471 fault?

The only problem I have with this program is that when I watch some movies, the video stops part way through and starts over. I don't know whether this is something DivX AntiFreeze can fix, though. I'll have to try.
