What's new in Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 1.7.0:
Security advisory: Due to known buffer overflows in the internal filters of v1.6.8 and below, it is strongly recommended that you update to the new version. More information on which filters are affected will follow soon.
Highlights of this release:
- Replace the internal filters with LAV Filters. LAV Filters are modern open source DirectShow filters based on FFmpeg. They are known to be reliable and fast and overall should be more stable than the old filters. MPC-HC integrates LAV Filters directly and no extra installation steps are required. The embedded version of LAV Filters doesn’t interfere at all with other installed DirectShow filters (including the standalone versions of LAV Filters).
- Support loading HTTP/RTSP/UDP/RTP streams using embedded source filters
- Windows 8.1 support.
- Many more bugfixes and improvements, check the changelog for details.
