"Works better than mplayer2 but when you try and right click on a mpg and open with it cant find the file to play."
This is easy enough to fix.
- open Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types.
- scroll down to MPG (or whatever file extension you want to open using MPC)
- click on Advanced -> New
- in the Acion field, enter: Media Player Classic
- in the Application... field, Browse to mplayerc.exe and select it
- add "%1" to the end, so that in the Application field, it reads like so:
"C:Program Filesmplayer.exe" "%1"
The %1 represents the file you want to open (eg. movie.mpg), and the quotes around %1 is in case there are spaces in the path/filename (ie. to make it commandline-friendly).
When you right-click on an MPG file, it will now show "Media Player Classic" in the context menu.
"If only it was updated by the author."
You can use Media Player Classic Home Theatre, which is more or less a continuation of this project. MPC-HT is great. It even plays FLVs. |
