Can someone explain why he called me a faggot? VLC seems fine to me and supports every codec I've ever thrown at it. It doesn't seem like it uses much CPU power. Why am I a cuckold for using a completely fine player?
My friend made me uninstall this and get MPC HC
It's an anal diddo
"my friend" AKA the Any Forums schizo
just use windows media player lmao
if it works for your needs then whatever. i just prefer mpc. tighter experience.
i guess vlc not supporting madvr might be deal breaker for few people but that's non issue for most
I recently switched back to VLC from MPC because it automatically downmixes the 5.1 audio to stereo for me. On MPC I had to turn everything up to literally 100% when watching movies, and I still would miss some dialogue
I exclusively use RealPlayer
open your eyes bro, VLC is genuinely terrible unless you spend several hours fixing it.
I only switched to mpc hc because I like the frameless option better. Press 1 and the borders disappear. Press 2 and the border is still gone but the time bar shows up if you want to skip ahead or back. Press 3 an you get full navigation again. Another shortcut lets me put it always on top. So I can watch some kino while doing other things on my laptop.
If you're gonna do comparisons at least do it properly.
turn on "Loudness Equalization" in your sound settings fixes the low dialog problem regardless of media player.
> MPC because it automatically downmixes the 5.1 audio to stereo for me
That was also the decisive factor for me. There are probably ways to downmix on other players, but MPC comes with downmixing options right out of the box.
>not just using chrome's video player
Where my quicktime chads at?
That's dynamic range compression, not downmixing.
>It doesn't seem like it uses much CPU power.
your computer has hardware capable of improving the picture quality, why wouldnt you want that to be used? low CPU or GPU use means VLC isnt actually doing anything
posted a pic of yourself?
Only when I watch trailers
>reading comprehension
the first thing i think of when i see that shit is porn
those were some dangerous fucking times jerking off on the family computer which was basically in the hallway
no shit sherlock, read what his problem was but slowly this time.
oh fuck
But why couldn't you just turn it off?
uhhh where? you misread my post, i ditched MPC because i couldnt figure out how to fix the audio issue
i could have been misusing the term, i dont know if what vlc does is actually downmixing. all i know is that the audio is louder. i will check for loudness EQ, but i dont remember seeing that setting. I tried the Normalization setting and it didn't do anything
>using MPC
kek
i just have normalize and regain volume option ticked
