    New version of CCCP: http://www.cccp-project.net/



    # 2009-09-09: It's been a long time since the last release. Are you noticing a trend here?! We proudly present CCCP9+9, "NEIN NEIN NEIN". Yes, it was released at 9:09:09 GMT today! Download: Win7/Vista/XP/2K.

    * Things built with VS2008 SP1 and/or GCC 4.3.3. Using March 09 DXSDK.
    * All components built for CCCP show in file resource under "Special Build Description".
    * Updated components:
    o FFDShow r3065
    o MPC-HC r1264
    o Haali 2009-01-11
    o Removed Zoom Player
    * Added licenses which install to Legal folder if any such license exists for the project.
    * Use EVR-CP renderer on Vista+ if D3X* DLLs available, otherwise VMR7. Use Overlay for older OSes.
    o Added prompt on install if user has no D3X* dll's on Vista or greater (this check is identical to MPC-HC's) and lets them know they will need to install the DX End-User Runtime binaries in order to make full use of MPC-HC. Important for using EVR-CP without nagging message.
    o Disable Show OSD by default in MPC-HC.
    * Added VSFilter as preferred decoder in MPC (Win7 compatibility).
    * Added extra ffdshow components: ff_kerneldeint, ff_samplerate, TomsMoComp_ff, ff_unrar, ff_wmv9, and ffmpegmt.
    * Added mpciconlib (sans 256x256 icons).
    * Fixed installer not asking you to "Reset All Settings" if you were asked to restart. Added all post install options to custom page in installer.
    * Fixed Save Thumbnails feature in MPC-HC.
    * Fixed extra backup entries in Vista+ Default Program interface for MPC-HC.
    * Fixed CCCP Settings not allowing Re-Register checkbox if no players installed.
    * CCCP Settings: Added options for H.264 MT (Multithreading with ffmpegmt, still experimental), Theora, EAC3, and TrueHD. Only one option for DRC now (used by AC3 and EAC3). Added checkboxes next to Filetype Associations to use the icons in mpciconlib.
    * MPC-HC Options: Enabled MPEG2 decoder in MPC-HC by default, it causes less issues for the most part using Gabest's decoder in MPC than other commercial decoders. "Keep history of files" enabled by defualt, used by GTSdll. Disable Animation is disabled, and sub buffering returned to value of 3.
    * FFDShow Options: Enabled Theora, H.261, MP41/2/3, HuffYUV, SVQ1, SVQ3, QT RPZA, QT RLE, MJPEG, TrueMotion, CamStudio, Indeo 2/3, VP3, VP5, VP6, CorePNG, MSZH, ZLIB, EAC3, TrueHD, MLP, QDM2, MACE. HQRGB enabled by default, only affects screenshots taken with ffdshow with default settings. Reverted a "fix" in ffdshow which makes certain channels even softer in a 5.1->2ch downmix.

    They need to add support for Windows Media Center on Windows 7, I can't seem to get my mkv's working inside of it.

    cccp generally releases beta builds every month, but only releases a 'final' once a year.

    In other words casual users who don't like messing around are forced to wait for a full year until September before seeing an update.

    I can't complain too much, the older build ran every video I threw at it without slowdown.

    for people who like to live on the bleeding edge there are the klite packs. Those guys recently updated their codec control application too.

    IIRC the company that makes Zoom Player got greedy and stopped distributing the free version or something.

    It's a very slow program when it comes to updating. But thanks for letting us know!

    Oh well, so long as the mpc included in the pack does its job properly I won't mind either way.
