March 4th, 2006· - two pass bicubic shader, bilinear more optimized
· - dropped subtitles are loaded instead of opening them
· as a media file
· - thumbnail image generator
· - dsm demuxer can output individual streams into
· files (context menu -> demux...), the raw data is
· corrected if possible, like subtitles are output
· to srt/ssa/vobsub, frame header added to aac, wave
· header to pcm, etc.
· - better support for quicktime files by the mp4
· splitter, more track types are recognized and also
· reads zlib compressed headers
· - dvd navigator's software dvd region check is disabled
· using the detours lib, there is still a hw region
· check built in the firmware of the drives, unless it
· was flushed with a region free firmware it will still
· not work and may cause strange problems like freezing
· the player
· - the mpeg ts splitter can repack h264 streams in
· "mp4 style" packets for decoders so they won't crash
· (ffdshow, coreavc)
· - "next aspect ratio preset" command
· - yv12/i420 is no longer a disallowed format when
· using "vmr9 (renderless)" as the renderer, holding
· the ctrl key when loading a file will still disable
· it, the current display drivers should not have that
· color conversion bug anymore but just in case...
· - vmr9 (renderless) mixer mode available, it allows
· deinterlacing and other vmr9 features, off by default
· because it is slightly slower
· - Haali's video renderer can be directly selected in
· the options (subtitling works, shaders don't)
· - mpeg decoder sse2 optimizations (most noticable at
· hdtv resolution), optional interlaced output, new
· "field shifter" deinterlacing mode
· - nero's "vobsub" inside mp4 supported
· - clicking another window on a different monitor while
· mpc is playing in fullscreen will not restore it to
· normal size anymore, if another application grabs the
· focus, its name and window title will be displayed on
· the status bar of mpc
· - graph builder of the filter graph manager was rewritten
· (again), let's hope nothing is more broken than it was :)
· - new built-in async reader for udf sources, currently
· only works with the internal mpeg splitter because
· others aren't prepared for constantly growing files,
use the following syntax as the file name:
· udp://[]:/[],
· where "multicastgroupip" is optional and "mediasubtypeguid"
· can be used to specify the subtype of the stream, for
· example udp://:1234/{e06d8023-db46-11cf-b4d1-00805f6cbbea}
· means transport stream, it will also work fine without
· the subtype, just selecting the right splitter will take
· a little longer
· - the checked state of the "enable subtitles" menu item
· is preserved, this means you can disable subtitling with
· the vmrs now without having to turn it off for each newly
· opened file
· - floating toolbars are saved, next time mpc opens they
· will appear floated and at the same position on the desktop
· - normalizer/booster was moved to the audio switcher, to
· avoid high spikes lowering the volume too much the
· normalizer regains 5% per second now
· - "quick open file" menu (similar to vlc's)
· - options/filters section was redone a bit, the internal
· filters have their own property pages, mpc won't be
· controlling them directly anymore
· - there is a changelog this time! :)
other fixes:
· - random crash when seeking files with mp3 audio streams
· and using the internal decoder
· - compatibility with the oggds/vorbis decoder restored
· (it is a bug in the ogm vorbis decoder btw)
· - blank checklist elements in options (external filters
· now, overrides before)
· - run-time error when loading files with certain unicode
· characters in the filename
· - unicode id3 tags, byte order of le/be utf-16 tags was
· mixed up
· - repeated languages loading vobsub subtitles
· - dvd angle switching (angle number was off by 1 for many
· years lol ;)
· - long delay when doing "seek to keyframe" with the avi
· splitter
· - fading dvd subpics (~ multiple entries in DCSQT)
bad news:
· - resource ids were cleaned up and renumbered, the old
· command assignments are lost, sorry.
