MPC-BE isn't MPC-HC.
LAV Filters isn't bundled with MPC-BE.

So perhaps learn to read before calling people stupid and looking like a clueless moron in future.

I'm not really need anything fancy and still trying to work out if lav filters are even really needed with mpc-be.

It has ffmpeg in it by default looking at the code but only parts and plays all my files without lavfilters installed.
I'm just trying to work out any differences in performance and quality.

For some fucking reason Windows lacks the ability to show previews of many file types, like pretty much anything associated with Photoshop.
This program is pretty much essential if you have those files lying around.

I am the /g/ meme incarnate.

I play games, I have an nvidia gpu, and it's the 970. I browse reddit, use facebook and my main OS is Windows 10. I also dual-boot Arch. I watch anime, although I don't animepost. The language I most commonly use is C#.

I am not Pajeet though. Yet.

Why does 7zip starts fast and then slows down? When I'm extracting a zip it starts at nice speeds of ~100MB/s and then it gradually slows down to about 4MB/s. What the fuck?

They added a lot of unnecessary shit, thus making the program fat, slow and a resource hog.

I'm using Firefox Developer at the moment.
I just want to know what browser that is, or what kind of design I can install to make it look like that.

The program reads the data into RAM (fast) then as that completes it shows it being flushed (most likely to zip diskette at that speed) to the write location.

I like this program Any Video Converter.

It's free software, but is commercial and there is premium version you can buy. The free version still has about every feature you'll need.

But the thing I like about it is the good mix of file types and features without being overly complicated, and it is very well threaded. I can use all 24 threads of my CPUs at once better than I can with Handbrake.
