dmiranda Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Why ask a question when you already have (or so you think) the answer? Please explain how MPC-HC is self sufficient enough (whatever that means). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT: Is it possible to play a local 1080p .mp4 file at 720p in VLC media player? 17 hours ago, IXOYE said: MPC-HC 2.1.2.18 on xp2 works very well Hi IXOYE, welcome back.

While I have no troubles helping a non-English member, it's still advisable you finally switch to another software for the forum translations from English into your native dialect. It's just easier, rather than asking every time you don't understand. self-sufficient /sĕlf″sə-fĭsh′ənt/ adjective Able to provide for oneself without the help of others; independent. Having undue confidence; smug. Sufficient for one's self without external aid or coöperation. https://www.wordnik.com/words/self-sufficient MPC HC is self-sufficient. It's capable of effecting all its own ends without the aid of others (in this case - third party codecs). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you add some additional file to make MPC-HC 2.1.2.18 work on XP SP2? for windows xp sp2 I have no BSOD problems with mpc-hc. For xp, lav 78 does not optimize hardware acceleration because it only manages dxva2 (D3d11). Mpc-hc for xp needs dxva1 for hardware support. The solution is to find an external dxva1 filter so that the GPU of my old ATI card works fully in hardware support, which results in leaving the CPU free when viewing. for the youtube mp4 1080 stream and other videos I use the external dxva filter installed by the "jetaudio" software on mpc-hc 2.1.2.18 by adjusting the expert parameters "YDLMaxHeight" 1080 and "YDLVideoFormat" 1 Edited January 11 by IXOYE link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j7n Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 MPC-HC takes some time to initialize a video steam from YouTube. Seeking is also unresponsive. Sometimes the sound plays but the video does not. If you download a video to disk, then you can use an old version of MPC-HC to watch it. I don't save much time by watching directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The file will be played according to the codec it contains. It has to be converted first to play at another resolution.

So you installed jetAudio 8.1.10 Basic and not jetVideo 8.1.10 Basic? When reading the description on their homepage, the jetAudio 8.1.10 Basic package mainly contains audio codecs. I would like to test it but I don't want to install the wrong package. So please, be so kind to provide the exact name of the package for installing the jetAudio Video decoder. Thanks in advance!

"Jet audio 8.1.10 basic" has the integrated jet video module in its program which means that you can play the videos in jet audio...so no need to install jet video which doesn't add anything extra by an additional video converter . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they same brand and same size? How much Virtual memory paging file you use? 17 hours ago, AstroSkipper said: No. The file will be played according to the codec it contains. It has to be converted first to play at another resolution. OT: I hoped there would be a way to do this with VLC, high-res video file plays laggy on old PC - so by playing it at lower resolution it will play smoothly. But I guess the only way to do this is to convert the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just easier, rather than asking every time you don't understand. You are good at reading dictionaries, but slow at using them properly. Your knowledge of mpc-hc lacks as much as your knowledge of security. MPC-HC was closed down in 2017. During the last 3-4 years, a number of mods have been developed, all targetting W7 (most V8) and up. Some even tried to make them work in XP and Vista. To make them backward compatible though, a few developers have made the necessary changes, including the one presented in this thread (not by you, btw). Self-sufficiency has nothing to do with it, but, maybe, coding expertise and proficiency. Go check the Collins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
