mpv nigger

does it have built in subtitle search like mpchc?

Only now do I realize that CCCP hasn't been updated in 2 years.
What the fuck?

BE or one of the mpv flavors

KILL YOURSELF FAGGOT OP

DELET

I'm not going anywhere while it's still working and playing my videos.

MPV
It scans the folder for subs. You can use Bomi for gui, but it's also abandonware unless someone forks it.

mpchc searches subtitles online with a click of a button.
If video player doesnt have this feature built in, it aint worth shit

MPCHC was always inferior to PTHC anyways.

This, fuck off, dont need to fix what ain't broken

:^)

So much this famalamapingpong

bloat, learn in2 separation of concerns. should be a separate program which you can bind to a key in any media player program that supports running external commands (mpv for example)

>my video player shouldn't have a volume slider, it should be a separate program you launch with command line parameters

Why don't you just render its output to PNG files and use an image viewer 24 times per second?

>le reductio ad absurdum
nice one reddit, have an upboat!

>weaponized autism

The question is, do you have a separate program for giving me upboats which follows the Unix philosophy?

Downloading files IS clearly a distinct task from playing them. Automatic subtitles should be a feature of frontends, not mpv itself.

MPC-HC probably died because it was too complex to maintain. :^)

what happened here

Do you also post a random online comment by tinydick when someone calls you a tiny dick?

no I just wanted to check if there were new blogs written by the guy, but his blog is empty now

I honestly want to see a video of you looking for a subtitle, would be funny to see how long it takes you.

Ah.

You can adjust volume with 9 and 0

i don't use it, but i don't judge

why do we need a new version if it just works?

virtualdub hasn't been updated in years, and you can still edit your avi's with it. point being when software is polished to the point of being near-perfect, there's not point in modifying anything anymore.
now before you say security updates, do you really need them on a program that mostly plays files offline (as opposed to streaming)

T H I S

Because if media changes at all, you're fucked, even if said change is small and easily accommodated by projects

Though you probably don't care if you're one of those autists that only used MPC to upscale shitty anime torrents with one of those fucky proprietary renderers.

I'll keep on using it for as long as it werks.
Someone will fork it anyways.

There's a userscript that gives that functionality. Autosub, I think it's called.

>software stopped development
>oh shit I have to stop using it even though it still works just fine
Correct me if I'm wrong even if MPC-HC dev stopped wouldn't an updated ffmpeg allow it to continue to decode what ever ffmpeg supports?

yeah, you won't get new features for the player or fix new discovered bugs, but you can still update the audio-video codecs by yourself

What else is there to do except occasional maintenance? Sometimes a piece of software is just completed and no longer needs developers to actively work on it. Honestly, some of you guys get way too sucked into the feedback loop of instant updates. This is software development, not Twitter.

It's a lowkey mpv plug.

once again, T H I S

there's literally no reason to stop using it just because updates are stopping

this software will probably still be in use 15 years from now
if there are changes in how videos are encoded or whatever then you can probably just update your codecs

Isn't DirectShow supposed to be obsolete/deprecated?

>ImgBurn
>last release from 2013
>still fully functional
>still the best DVD/BD authoring and burning software
I don't see why MPC would be any different, it's literally perfect.

what did you smoke?

shit that wont happen anytime soon

Didn't it get updates recently? I'm pretty sure the newest version is time stamped after that farewell. Did someone pick it up again?

mpc hc because it still works

it'll be a decade before mpc-hc is truly deprecated
