>What media player do you use to watch your pirated movies and Chinese cartoons?
Used to use MPC-HC but switched to mpv.

>And why do you guys hate VLC so much?
Because it's not made for regular video playback, it even says it in it's name but retards still continue to use it as their default media player.

on OS X, VLC.
mpv performs significantly better (for offline files) and I've memorized most keyboard shortcuts, but I just enjoy GUIs.

"You guys must be downloading shit torrents!"

No, it's just VLC being a pile of fuckery.

That's meaningless without a comparison. Show the same file playing in VLC and some other player.

well, the third or fourth"Why VLC is hated" Thread today,sigh.

>What media player do you use to watch your pirated movies and Chinese cartoons?
For normal movies without Subs and BluRay quality-->WMP is enough.

For Animes with subs -->MPC
,because madvr,good sub support,LAV-Filter and good upscale.

>And why do you guys hate VLC so much?
People which used VLC like 10 years ago ,are still thinking its good.
>No
no madvr support,subs are terrible,no LAV-Filter and with upscale sucks as well.
>>
>>53844539
i see what you did there...

Well with all this hate, what's a good alternative then? I use it for music when i'm not using foobar and for mp4 videos mostly and it works so i don't know

tfw I used to use VLC for music as a last ditch attempt to keep it the program on my PC, but since downloading Clementine I have no reason for it any more. It makes me sad that I am finally uninstalling it after it being a staple on my pc for so long.

Most importantly what is the MPC-HC + madVR for a Loonixtard like myself?
>>
>>53844157
VLC has performance issues with poorly encoded files, and seeking in a file with a low amount of key frames causes insane artifacting.

I use MPV personally. MPC-HC is also pretty good but I don't really use it these days.
>>
>>53844536
Shit quality torrents usually have encoding problems that every player except VLC handles well.
>>
>>53844481
>>53846436
The font-cache thing only happens on Windows, not Linux.

>>53844506
>Because it's not made for regular video playback,

Yes it is.

>>53848408
>no LAV-Filter

It has better, native ffmpeg.

LAVFilters are a fork of ffmpeg to make it work with the deprecated, proprietary, and Windows-only, Directshow API.
