Version history / Release notes / Changelog / What's New


2.1.7

Changes from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7:
Changes/additions/improvements:

Some improvements for hotkey and global media key handling. This for example fixes a problem caused by a Windows/Chrome/Edge bug where clicking on notifications could send a keypress with value 0 to wrong window, which could trigger hotkey actions in MPC-HC.
This adds a new option to display audio track details in the statusbar. Note: Statusbar info does not (yet) update when changing audio track through splitter tray icon, only when doing it using player functionality.
Fixes:

Fixed a crash when using libass and subtitles were (partially) located outside of visible video area.
A few other small fixes and improvements.

The playback speed doesn't display when playing audio only so you have no idea what speed you're at when you change it. It works fine with video.

"Added advanced option to use MediaInfo to gather file durations when adding files to playlist" Even if the option is selected, it does not work. You have to reactivate it with each video.

I have been using MPC-HC for a long time. This new version is very disappointing.
