I specifically use MPC-KCP (Kawaii Codec Pack). All the MAD-VR preconfigured (if you want it) for optimal anime viewing.

What is MadVR and what does it do so well that everyone is raving about it here?

 

[YianGaruga]

VLC has nothing on MPC-BE + madVR + LAV + ReClock + XySubFilter!

Prefect playback.

Installing and configuring all that (with a tutorial) some time ago (coming from CCCP) improved the quality of videos by a huge amount. Anime never looked so good before.

Eem, comedians?

 

[Arthea]

it begins to look like it, and to think I thought it's about region locks and playing us against one another.

And who cares about remote!?

Okay, now you got me interested.

 

[PandaPedinte]

you just reminded me about those "business" calls from Hong Kong, or wherever that gang is located, they call and speak really fast especially introduction part that you never are able to hear or decipher. I always wonder, how can anybody fall for that? And if not, who pays for those calls, and how on earth they get so much info about companies.

Mostly of people are really easy to trick, my father other day asked my help telling there were viruses on his smartphone, it was just these stupid ads you get when browsing the web using a mobile device.

More or less the same arguement people get with FXAA and MSAA/TXAA, 60Hz versus 120 Hz, etc. but for video.

 

[YianGaruga]

I checked the guide I used (last updated 2013 sadly) and it says you'll get mostly the same results by using KCP. Anyway, this is what I used so it's a good place to start.

Oh, carry on then. I'll stick with my idiot proof solution.

Might try the kawaii codec pack with my next Windows install.

So I just got a call from 'Microsoft' telling me my computer was under attack right now and that they were calling to help me. Funny thing is that I'm at work, and sat in front of a Mac. Told the guy to jog on and then low and behold the phone on the desk next me rung, same type of call, probably same guy. Now I know this is as old as the hills and one reason we don't have a phone connected at home but I didn't expect these folks to be that determined to go through sequential numbers to infinity.

We get them at home too. 100% of the time it's someone from India. I tend to screw around with them, either playing really dumb ("Oops! I accidentally googled the site you wanted me to go to, and I have a bunch of page listings now saying that it's a scam! What's going on?") or calling them out on their bullshit ("Where are you calling from, "Peter?" Canada, huh? What city? Vancou City, huh? What time is it there? A quarter to six, you say? (it should be 12:30 there) How fascinating!") It's amazing, though: even when caught in a contradiction, they don't give up. There's no Phoenix Wright-esque "Nooooo!" but simply "I'm not a liar, I really am Peter from a city I can't properly identify in a time zone that's not only impossible where I should be, but anywhere in the world, and your computer has problems." Unless you tell them that you're in IT or you're a cop (in which case they'll hang up immediately) they will ALWAYS assume that they're smarter than you, even though they seem to employ the dumbest people on the planet.

Only 4 more hours until Westerado. Hnnnngh.

And those Nixon videos are great. TIL that 'Negroes aren't smart enough to be spies'.

I'll adapt to whatever the winners are using, don't care either way.

Welcome to your KCP overlords.


Bend over.

Westerado does look nice, I suppose you will post some impressions, the war won't stop you?

Couldn't agree more.

Wait man gotta wash my hand

will changing media players improve the quality of my porn?

 

[InfiniteNine]

VLC is awful.

 

[wilflare]

So these showed up a little while ago. One for me and the rest for you guys.



Figured I'd raffle one every few hours so every time zone gets a chance, but maybe that gets a little too spammy? Let me know.

Anyway here's the first one

:O how did you get so many lol

Yes. You should also always have multiple players to watch more porn at once.
If you thought, game backlogs are bad, just remember how many porn videos you haven't seen yet.

I don't know what this all means but I trust you enough to make this all later.

Been using standard MP-HC.

 

[Naked Snake]

Some commercial played (like PowerDVD) might, shit cost money though. Also you need fast hardware to use all the bells and whistles. MadVR probably does a better job than all of them and is free.

Got it, bookmarked.
Will check it out later after my gaming session.

Looks like it.

 

[JaseC]

:O how did you get so many lol

A local store was having a clearance sale. All that Lego Batman 3 but no Don Bradman. :sadcloud:

 

[S1n1st3r]

Exactly! Can't they come up with less obtuse terminology?

 

[Baron_Calamity]

That exact image flashed in my head while reading that!

Just install KCP and set it to second highest setting and be blown away.

 

[MUnited83]

Not surprised at all at the _hekk05 ban. Was bound to happen eventually.

 

[Kiru]

Just install KCP and set it to second highest setting and be blown away.

And uninstall the previously installed Codec Pack before you do that though ?

EDIT: Yep. "Most importantly, uninstall all previously used codec packs/players prior to installing KCP. (MPC-HC, CCCP, ffdshow, madVR, Haali, K-lite, CoreAVC etc.)
Conflicts with existing codecs may hinder your ability to play content effectively."

Huh, uh?! hekki was banned? What did he do?

Our household has been bombarded with fake "IRS officers" threatening us in the past month. It's past tax day in the US so its stopped.

Gog has some good sales going on right now.

For those that like gog and steam

File them late and if you owe money, pay the penalty. (Which is like 5% of what was owed)

 

[PandaPedinte]

My father has a small business here and he used to get a lot emails requesting prices, informing he was missing a payment or from Receita Federal (our IRS)

 

[Sarcasm]

I make nothing anyways! So if they do anything what they gonna take my steam account?


Also anybody got a witcher 1 save? I am not going to play that - cause I can't sit through it. Think I can do W2 though.

 

[chronomac]

Yeah, it's not a huge deal.

 

[Sendou]

Trine 3 will be available on Steam Early Access next week (Tuesday, April 21st)

 

[Parsnip]

For this post, I assume. The thread as a whole is a graveyard.

Can't say I'm terribly surprised at the post, or the ban.

Also #team7zip is best team, no need for anything else.

Preach.

List of applications

That list looks nearly identical to mine. Spooky.

Legend of Kay Anniversary. Anyone played it and know if it's any good?

Yup, played it back when it was new on PS2. It's a fun little 3D platformer with a great soundtrack by virt.
Wishlisted, I wonder what the price is going to be, I think the amazon listing had it at €25. So maybe a -10% of that
