About
This is based on the latest source code of the official project, plus some additional small fixes and improvements. And most importantly, it includes the very latest version of LAV Filters!
It is unclear if there will ever be an new official release. The current project manager has said he lost interest in the project and I haven't got any further responses in the past weeks.
I have been involved in MPC development (with small contributions) for almost 15 years, so consider these semi-official builds
Development state
MPC-HC does not have any active developers right now. So don't expect any new functionality or other big changes. The player already is mature and provides all functionality that most people need. MPC-HC is open source, so anyone who is interested can contribute fixes and improvements. You can submit patches to me, and when I think your change is useful, I will gladly include it in a future build.
What I will be doing is keep the internal codecs (LAV Filters) up-to-date. This means that you can continue to play everything with MPC-HC in the future, just as you can now. For example, support for decoding the upcoming AV1 video format will be added once it becomes available in FFmpeg. I will also try to keep some other (externally developed) components like MediaInfo up-to-date. And maybe do some small bugfixes.
