Media Player Classic 6.4.9.1 Revision 2008-07-28

September 8, 2008

Media Player Classic is a rewriten version of Windows Media Player 6 which was then open sourced and released under the GNU GPL. The interface is similar to the MS original but is a little more up-to-date, XP friendly, comes with some more advanced features, and doesn’t have the annoyances of the original. But probably the best thing about this player is the range of formats it supports. It’ll play just about anything you throw at it, whether it’s an MP3, an Ogg, a WMA, even a QuickTime file.

Changes in Latest Revision

* MPEG Audio Decoder: Updated liba52

* MPEG Audio Decoder: Updated libdts

* VSFilter: Added RealText support

* VSFilter: Fix rare seeking issue with VobSubs

* VSFilter: Fix potential jitter issues with \pos overrides in VSFilter.

* VSFilter: Really fix two subtitle rasterisation bugs: Go back to old pixmix/pixmix2 architecture originally used in Subtitler and early versions of VSFilter, implement an SSE2 version of pixmix2 and ensure (widened-region minus fill) math doesn't underflow. Completely fixes "\be1 stray dots" and "vector \clip kills alpha" bugs.

Also add several comments explaining the rasterisation code.

* VSFilter: Add support for variable strength and animated \be, and implement gaussian \blur as an alternative. (\blur also does edge blur like \be but in a nicer way.)

* VSFilter: Add new override tags \xbord \ybord \xshad \yshad to control border and shadow size separately in X and Y directions.

* VSFilter: Add "inverse clip" tag \iclip to specify what to hide rather than what to show.

* VSFilter: Partial workaround for problem where border colour shows through fill colour during \fad and \fade fades. This workaround potentially causes small seams to be visible during the fade, unfortunately this is the price to pay for getting correct fades.
