Media Player Classic HomeCinema 1.2.1179 x86/x64

The Media Player Classic HomeCinema is an audio and video player with a lot of additional features. The project is based on the original “Media Player Classic” and was created after Gabest, the original author, stopped working on it. Several new features have been integrated in this player, such as:

– An option to remove Tearing
– Translations available in several different languages
– Additional video decoders and in particular H.264 and VC-1 with DXVA support
– Better support for Windows Vista, including a separate release for 64 bits platform
– Support for Vista’s new EVR renderer
– A lot of bug and vulnerability fixes

Modern graphics card offer the possibility to decode partially or completely a video stream using DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA), in order to reduce CPU usage dramatically. MPC-HC includes an embedded video decoder that uses this technology, to decode H.264 and VC-1 with hardly any CPU time required. Unfortunately the MPC-HC decoder only supports the “bitstream mode” at this stage, which means that only the most recent graphic cards are supported: nVidia series 8(9)xxx for H.264 only and ATI Radeon HD series for H.264 and VC-1 decoding. The latest version includes fixes for some DXVA issues in previous builds…
