Well excuse me if not everybody has a 64bit OS.
CCCP is fine, just remember to update haali if you are getting CCCP stable instead of cccp beta for the time being. Next stable release should be soon enough to forget about this line hopefully.

haali is overrated, I rather they just include the OP in the encode, or not include it. I don't give a shit. I can look it up on boochsack. It's torrent, I'm not going to be a haalifag when there are plenty of simple directshow splitters that don't insert segments. Fuck bandwidth preservation for torrent bots!

VLC player is the way to go.

VLC player is the way to go.

No, just... please, no.

Even for playing directly from USB stick, there are way better options these days.

Sorry for the slight necropost, but ... which player(s) would you recommend instead?

IMHO, VLC is good if you have older AMVs that still have interlacing issues, and the decoding works on almost anything you throw at it, unless it's encoded in some weird way. If I were to choose a player to use for audience play, VLC is still a much better option than MPC-HC or Windows Media Player. Although I prefer MPlayer2 over VLC, it's not as easy to use and still rooted in the command line--most people these days don't want the hassle. VLC is mostly hassle-free and easy to obtain.

Mplayer2 (has an unofficial stable for Windows too) is a good choice, or MPC-HC in CCCP or KCP, because that's as hassle free as you can get (which one depends on how fresh you need your codecs). I have never encountered an interlacing issue in MPC-HC (and it has optional filter to disable interlacing anyway). Just making sure you stay with only one of them is enough.

VLC has many issues, I'd like to mention at least the option to overblow the audio (which might seem a fine option until you find out that it can break speakers: http://en.community.dell.com/support-fo ... t/19492918 ) and the fact that the codecs are loaded on runtime means very broken seeking (image breaking apart - might seem a small issue for some, but it always annoyed me to no end. Also I think that when you seek for audience and it breaks like this, it makes it feel a slightly worse as for how the image of the screening personnel goes in the eyes of the viewers). In my opinion, when you can, it's better to invest a few minutes to get a working player with codecs install instead of VLC.

I would use VLC for USB playability and possibly for streaming. For personal and audience play, I'd use MPC-HC or Mplayer2

I'd say MPV over Mplayer2, nowadays.

I have used VLC, but it can't play commercial Blu ray discs. So I turned my feet to Macgo Blu ray player. It worked well and don't cost so much. Anyway you can make it a reference. http://www.macblurayplayer.com/features.htm
