It's a very strange feeling to increasingly notice that even the by-far biggest (the only, many including myself would say) desktop OS almost has no active/non-dead freeware/FOSS software for extremely common tasks left. I don't know what to do if I can't even use MPC-HC anymore. I barely trusted the MPC-HC team in the first place, and even that has changed hands several times over the many years I've been using it. I have heard that there is some "fork" of MPC-HC, but if it's so active and trustworthy, why didn't they get to take over the official MPC-HC website? I don't trust that fork project. I don't understand what they were thinking with the clearing bookmarks. This is a snap of Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source (OSS) video and audio player for Windows wrapped in Wine. I really like the simplicity and speed of MPC-HC, but the bookmarks feature is such a massive deal to me (and to everyone else, I would assume) that I simply cannot use VLC. It feels very non-intuitive to use, even if I admittedly do have to set up MPC-HC as well each time I install it.It's extremely sluggish at starting up.(It technically does, but since they clear when you close the program, they are about as useful as the hi-score tables in Tetris on Game Boy, which cleared when you switched the handheld off.) Who knows how many exploits have been found in that time?Īnyway, I do have VLC installed, but never use it for playing my video/audio files because: I'm starting to feel increasingly scared about opening video files in a 2.5 years old media player. On MPC-HC's website, the last release/news is from "July 16, 2017":
