Changes from 1.8.8 to 1.9.0:

Updates:

  • Updated LAV Filters to v0.74.1-31-ge94f9

Changes/additions/improvements:

  • Added a dark theme option for the GUI. You can enable it through: Menu > View > Dark theme
  • The dark theme also has a more modern looking seekbar. You can adjust seekbar height in: Options > Advanced
  • Added option for vertical alignment of the video. This for example allows you to have a black bar only below the video.
  • Custom toolbar button file is now loaded using these filenames: toolbar.[png/bmp/svg] (normal theme / grayscale buttons), toolbar_dark.[png/bmp/svg] (dark theme / grayscale), color_toolbar.[png/bmp/svg] (normal theme / colored buttons), color_toolbar_dark.[png/bmp/svg] (dark theme / colored buttons)
  • Added support for playing contents of uncompressed RAR5 archives. Previously only RAR4 was supported.
  • Added manual search functionality to the subtitle download results window.
  • Improved positioning of PGS subtitles
  • Some optimizations for subtitle texture size. This should improve performance on systems with multiple screens. And also reduce GPU memory usage.
  • Added column sorting and a search/filter option to the keybindings options page.
  • The supported languages of the OpenSubtitles/SubDB subtitle providers are now hardcoded, so the player no longer needs to connect to the Internet each time the subtitle options page is viewed.
  • Reloading a stream with CTRL+E will now call youtube-dl again to get a fresh URL.
  • Added basic support for MPC Video Renderer (https://github.com/Aleksoid1978/VideoRenderer). What currently works with this new renderer is: Hardware decoding, Subtitles, and Pan&Scan. What not yet works is: OSD, Rotation, and Shaders. That will be added in a future update.

Fixes:

  • Crash when detaching a (cloned) monitor during playback.
  • D3D exclusive not working anymore when transitioning to fullscreen a second time.
  • Restored window size was sometimes wrong due to DPI settings
