Media Player Classic is an open-source media player for 32-bit and
64-bit versions of Windows operating systems. MPC-HC is capable of
playing Video CD, Super Video CD, and other digital optical disc storage
formats automatically; all necessary codecs have been installed in the
program. The program and its source code are based on the K-lite Codec
Pack and the Combined Community Codec Pack. Its active forks are the
Media Player Classic - Home Cinema and the Media Player Classic - Black
Edition. All versions of the free media player are maintained by the
MPC-HC community at the Doom9 forum.
Media Player Classic is a media player with built-in codecs for MPEG-2
video. It supports subtitles and codecs for pulse-code modulation,
MPEG-2 audio, 3GP, Dolby Digital AC3, and DTS audio. The program also
contains a MPEG splitter and a VCD/SVCD/XCD Reader that supports
playback VCDs and SVCDs. All its functions are based on the DirectShow
architecture so you can find DirectShow decoding filters built-in to the
player. The output of this is fast and high-quality decoding and
postprocessing of MPEG-4 ASP, H.264, and Flash Video formats.
