A plea... Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much. Sincerely, your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna Always scroll to the bottom of the page for the main download link. We don't believe in fake/misleading download buttons and tricks. The link is always in the same place. Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) v2.2.1 An extremely light-weight, open source media player for Windows. Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project and contains many additional features and bug fixes.  System Requirements Windows Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 / 11 Overview of features Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the SaneAR audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below). There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well. Options > Player > Keys Tip: there is a search box above the table. You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Note: instead of yt-dlp.exe you can also use youtube-dl.exe. I do however recommend using yt-dlp because that works better and has active development, while youtube-dl development is currently inactive. Note 2: You also need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability. It also has updated internal codecs. Support was added for CUE sheets, WebVTT subtitles, etc. Changes: v2.2.1 04-10-24 Updates: Updated LAV Filters to version 0.79.2 Changes/additions/improvements: Added hotkey to toggle playlist shuffle option Added option to always show time in OSD The /fixedsize command line parameter now optionally supports specifying window position Fixes: A few bug fixes and small improvements Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Play HDR video This requires using either MPC Video Renderer (MPCVR) or madVR. After installation these HDR capable renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output With other video renderers, the colors will be wrong! I recommend installing K-Lite Codec Pack. That includes MPC-HC and the renderers all in one easy to use package. MPCVR is available as a separate download below. MPCVR supports Dolby Vision. MadVR does not. You should change hardware decoder to D3D11 in LAV Video Decoder settings when using MPCVR on Windows 10/11, because renderer will use DirectX11. Modern GUI Theme (Dark or Light) Options > Player > User Interface It is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Video preview on the seekbar Options > Player > User Interface Ability to search for subtitles Press D for manual search. Or enable automatic search in: Options > Subtitles > Misc Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default.
