I snatch HD QuickTime movie trailers from Apple (download with Firefox and a Greasemonkey script) and they play perfectly with MPC-HC/Win7. Windows 7 Pro here, using MPC-HC (I keep the builds current with releases from ) and that's pretty much it: the only (test) file that I haven't been able to play (so far) has been some anime short clip that apparently was encoded using Real Encoder or whatever the hell that POS is. a majority of codecs are pre-existing, and for the most part wmp under win7 works out of the box, but not in every single situation such as is the case with shark007's codec pack.
correct me if i'm wrong, but this is not possible with a default windows 7 install. actually, i can play absolutely any file format in plain 'ol windows media player and it'll just work.
splash is a newer program which currently lacks such features.Īs for shark007's codec pack, why would i need to uninstall it? it allows me to play mkv files in plain 'ol windows media player. i'd much rather be using mpc-hc as i like the ability to play around with pixel shaders. The only program with which i've been able to properly utilize dxva is splash. what i'm interested in doing is offloading the decoding to my gpu, a radeon 5770.ġ080p hardware decoding in mph-hc = choppy my quadcore xeon with ht enabled handles it just fine. i can play 1080p content just fine in mpc-hc via software decoding. I suppose i wasn't particularly clear on this point in my original post, but the specific issue i'm having is with regard to playback via dxva. and a majority of the files i'm playing are either m2ts, mkv or mp4. i have yet to test it with mpc-hc, though.
VLC MEDIA PLAYER CHOPPY 720P
plain 'ol wmp is just fine with both audio and video.Īny thoughts as to what's going on here? i'd like to get mpc-hc working so that i can offload the decoding onto my gpu and perhaps utilize some pixel shader features.Įdit: it's important to note that 720p playback was fine with vlc. when trying to watch some 1080p rips of planet earth (.m2ts files), with mpc-hc (both x86 and 圆4 versions) and vlc the sound is just fine but the video is incredibly choppy. my desktop doubles as my htpc, and i have within it: the last did not.įirst off, i'm sure that this choppiness issue i'm experiencing has nothing to do with hardware. i've used media player classic home cinema, vlc and just regular windows media player. Whilst trying out several different media players, i've found that 1080p playback is choppy in some instances, and in other instances it's just fine.
