The last time someone told me that they recommended a program that I did not like. KMP? Smplayer? MPC? Anyways the difference was negligible on my laptop. What do you recommend and why? srz questionWinston_Churchill wrote:

Not being funny but with no drive you cant read the disc, so no matter what software you get, you cant read the disc so you can't do anything with it. It's not like you can put it in a normal DVD drive and expect that to be able to read it.GR34 wrote:

KMPlayer and MPC-HC are the two best at the moment. VLC is just fail for proper codecs, especially at HD. I continually switch back and forth between preferring one over the other, right now I'm using MPC-HC.Kmarion wrote:

All kinds of formats. Sometimes it gets choppy in hd, but not usually. I have both KMPlayer and MPC-HC installed. I'll try them again next time I get a little stutter (which I assumed was from my lappy's mediocre performance).Winston_Churchill wrote:

What kind of stuff are you watching with it? If its SD xvid it makes no difference, but once you get into high bitrate and resolutions it can make a world of difference.

You should be able to play pretty much anything except the very highest quality 1080p on any laptop made within the past couple years with the proper media player/codecs. Even the new netbooks/tablets with 1.5GHz processors can do it. My laptop is 2 years old and mid-low level yet it can easily play anything I throw at it.Kmarion wrote:

Oh wait. GR34 that disk you copied is one of those hybrid HD-DVD\DVD disks. It HD-DVD on one side, DVD on the other.
Like I said most of the time no problem. When there is a problem shutting down a few extra processes usually fixes it. That is why I thought it may be performance. Still, I'm going to try the other players again.Winston_Churchill wrote:

Try installing one of the two with the most recent version and installing CoreAVC 2.x (whatever is latest at the time), its the best codec pack right now. If you still arent able to play it perfectly try coming on IRC, I can show you how to change your video renderer and other settings to be more efficient at HD.
You shouldnt need to shut processes down in the first place. Are you using DXVA material and renderers?Kmarion wrote:
