Been in use for many years, but still do not know what the difference is between MPC-HC from Casimir666 and from XhmikosR.

awesome media player, plays everything without codec packs (not quicktime or realmedia crap formats)
dxva comes ready out of the box, works perfec on ati or nvidia, using low resources too, easy to setup anything, really nice
i use it with lav cuvid and mad vr, also core avc, all working fine with very easy setup
oh and the shaders are great too, sharpen complex 2 and 16-235

Great player, have been a big fan of it since they have DXVA support Win XP which VLC didn't.

I fully agree with you, it has been for a long time the official Sourceforge site haven't cared to update, it's truly rotten!!!
The guys who are pushing it forward have the latest version at:
http://www.xvidvideo .ru/media-player-classic-home-cinema-x86-x64/
An that's the place from where I DL all my versions since a year back, the Official Sourceforge page haven't updated for single damn version for nearly a year until this spring, but now again ABANDONED for couple of months, I suggest someone else take it over if they can't keep up the latest version, or at least they could provide a link to xvidvideo .ru so people can get the latest updates!

Thank you so much, solved all my video problems for Windows 7 Starter when downloaded with the codec pack. Do not need to purchase a windows upgrade now. You guys are great.

Thanks, it's in!
Your review will appear once it has been checked.
The versions compiled by XhmikosR are unmodified (vanilla) MPC-HC builds from the Git master branch.
the XhmikosR version is the nightly-built which contains test codes, Casimir666s the general release version.
