Media Player Classic Home Cinema 2.5.2 – DOWNLOAD

Media Player Classic Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a lightweight media player for Windows. Designed as a mod of Media Player Classic for home cinema use, it resembles Windows Media Player 6.4 but includes many additional features.

Media Player Classic Home Cinema allows enhancement, decoding, and acceleration of a wide range of movie formats, including x.264, with GPU-assisted acceleration and image quality enhancements.

The MPC Home Cinema player requires fewer system resources than most other video media players for smooth operation. This Windows Media Player is optimized for minimal resource usage, making it suitable for slower machines with older CPUs.

Modern graphics cards can partially or fully decode a video stream using DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA), significantly reducing CPU usage.

Media Player Classic Home Cinema includes an embedded video decoder that uses this technology to decode x.264, H.264, HEVC, and VC-1 formats with minimal CPU usage.

Supported Decoding

MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 playback. Media Player Classic is capable of VCD, SVCD, and DVD playback, without the need to install any additional software or codecs.

Offering comprehensive media support, this player features built-in codecs for MPEG-2 video, LPCM, MP2, AC3, and DTS audio. Its improved MPEG splitter further supports VCD and SVCD playback through its dedicated VCD/SVCD/XCD Reader. Full .mp4 and MPEG-4 Timed Text support has been added, and an integrated AAC decoding filter makes it ideal for AAC playback in MP4.

MPC-HC provides robust support for modern and common video formats, featuring H.264 and VC-1 with DXVA hardware acceleration, as well as DivX, Xvid, and Flash Video. MPC may use the QuickTime and RealPlayer architectures. Media Player Classic supports native playback of OGM and Matroska container formats.
