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. MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles.
This is an unofficial build. It is based on the latest source code of the official project, plus several additional fixes and improvements. And most importantly, it includes the very latest version of LAV Filters!

Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 1.9.10 release notes:
Changes/additions/improvements
-
Some optimizations for the seek preview functionality
-
Seek preview now gets hidden when dragging the seekbar
-
Renamed "System Default" video renderer to "Video Mixing Renderer 7". This to prevent people from thinking this ancient renderer is the preferred one. Also changed order of the available renderers to put the recommended ones at the top.
-
The player now tries to parse JSON output from youtube-dl even when that has encountered an error. This fixes loading of youtube playlists that contain deleted videos.
-
Added a timeout in LAV Splitter code to prevent the player from freezing in case of certain network connection errors during playback of online streams
-
Added support for text color tags in WebVTT subtitles
-
Subtitle render buffer is now disabled by default. It doesn"t provide any noticeable performance benefit for most users.
-
A few other small changes
Fixes
-
Fixed subtitle text encoding bug that caused wrong characters to be displayed (regression in 1.9.9)
-

-
Fixed issue in sub picture buffer implementation that could result in reduced rendering performance for animated subtitles in certain cases
-
