Version history / Release notes / Changelog
1.9.10
Changes from 1.9.9 to 1.9.10:
Changes/additions/improvements:
Some optimizations for the seek preview functionality
Seek preview now gets hidden when dragging the seekbar
Renamed "System Default" video renderer to "Video Mixing Renderer 7". This to prevent people from thinking this ancient renderer is the preferred one. Also changed order of the available renderers to put the recommended ones at the top.
The player now tries to parse JSON output from youtube-dl even when that has encountered an error. This fixes loading of youtube playlists that contain deleted videos.
Added a timeout in LAV Splitter code to prevent the player from freezing in case of certain network connection errors during playback of online streams
Added support for text color tags in WebVTT subtitles
Subtitle render buffer is now disabled by default. It doesn't provide any noticeable performance benefit for most users.
A few other small changes
Fixes:
Fixed subtitle text encoding bug that caused wrong characters to be displayed (regression in 1.9.9)
Fixed issue that caused wrong keyframe to be show in seek preview window. Now a seek will go to the same frame as shown in the preview.
Fixed issue in sub picture buffer implementation that could result in reduced rendering performance for animated subtitles in certain cases
A few other small fixes

Fantastic player and I use it many years.
There is only one problem with newest 1.9.9 version (x64). Doesnt proper display croatian characters like š,đ,č,ć,ž.
Tried everything like change system locale, change encoding subtitles and font settings (in previous version 1.9.8 x64 works excellent with option Default (1)). Tried clean installation of version 1.9.9 and upgrade from version 1.9.8 but no luck. In version 1.9.8 works fine.
