To my surprise, it actually seems to work very well with karaoke, moving text, fades, and other advanced text effects in VSFilter.dll, without causing flickering, and it actually makes some previously unplayable segments, playable on my oldish AMD X2 4800+ PC.

That feature being enabled by default in VSFilter.dll has been a lifesaver during the past year for a few of the more stupid uses of slow ASS features I've run into. For whatever reason, I've found that the standalone VSFilter.dll doesn't have the CPU usage problem that the internal MPC-HC VSFilter has with that buffered animation hack. Please don't remove this from the standalone VSFilter.dll. For best performance (without correct animation) use non-zero buffer. To get animation, use subpicture buffer of zero. I think it should be disabled or just removed entirely.

It is supposed to help with tearing issues, but its just a terrible code hack. It enables 'allow animation while buffering' which pretty much just eats CPU cycles. MPC-HC by default uses insane subtitle settings on quadcores (and higher). If you can use that for Vista+ OSes and use a fallback for XP, I think at least Vista+ can get a huge speedup in subtitle handling. Unfortunately it's only available on updated Vista and Win 7 (damn MS). The newest generation web browsers are using Direct2D and DirectWrite to offload font rendering completely on the GPU, which greatly speeds up the rendering quality and performance on those platforms. People were already enjoying smooth playback of fansubs with the old MPC. The stuttering issues are partly due to the renderer changes that were made in MPC-HC.

Plus it has been proven several times in the past that KMP had the same specific bugs as MPC.

Translating code to a different language does not make it your own unique work. The whole KMP issue has been discussed many times before in the past. MPC-HC is THE recommended player for fansubbed anime these days and they have just started using animated softsubs for karaoke. I'd rather have high CPU usage with smooth playback rather than idle CPU with crappy playback. When using animated subtitles, using sub picture buffering is the only way I can get smooth playback, setting it to 0 makes playback horribly stuttery due to crazy frame dropping during animation, even though I have CPU cycles to spare. I think one of their chief argument was that KMP is written in Delphi, not C, hence there is no chance of there being copied code from MPC, and KMP only links against Gabest's filters, hence it isn't violation of GPL. I fully understand the need for supporting Windows XP, as it's still an officially supported OS.Īt least on the allocator-presenter parts it seems to be okay, as the blending stage for main video, subtitles, OSD and the stats screen is clean and efficient for what I've seen in the code of EVR CP, Sync and VMR-9 (renderless).

(DirectX 9 lacks a lot font rendering technology.) That does involve quite a lot of work to get both hardware-level rendering (for DirectX 10 or newer generation GPU's) and software rendering paths working.

A true upgrade would be to move to DirectX 10/11 native font rendering and composing. It's still a bit hard to get it working, but at least I've disabled mipmap generation for some parts (still in testing phase). I've been trying to get it corrected, so it can use 8-bit RGBA instead of 4-bit RGBA, handle multithreading better and use a cleaner composing method. The reason of the slow subtitle renderer is mainly because of the font handling.
