annoying thing about vlc - subs can't appear in the black area below the movie which appears when playing widescreen movies in full screen mode.... vlc site admin: "it is very complex since, we have to Rework all the Video Out. So no, it is not planned yet."

annoying thing about gom - "GOM Player doesn't support languages that are displayed from right to left, and we do not have immediate plans to support them at this point."

ffdshow + mpc, no other choice for me..

Works better when forwarding through videos (faster and no breakup of the image). Looks a lot nicer out of the box. I've never even scratched the surface of VLC regarding it's advanced features, I just want a player that works well and looks good, and this fits the bill nicely.

Which languages are read from right to left in video release? I know some Asian texts are, but for video they are read from left to right.

Thanks but can someone still answer my question?

I am going to connect my laptop straight to my tv and I do have high-def videos. How do I set up GOM Player to play the videos in high-def on the tv?

Also.. howcome .mkv files don't play well in GOM Player?

I might try this player out. I recently tried out KMPlayer and I'm very happy with it. Is it easy to put the player in full screen mode? Anyone know how to do that with Windows Media Player 11? I always get the widescreen borders. I've been trying to find out forever! Where's the damn option to set it to 4:3?? lol

I'm not sure I understand the question... As long as your Laptop is set with the TV as the output, then you should be able to play the videos on the TV.

Right click on the video (or click on the "GOM" Icon in the top left) -> Aspect ratio -> 4:3(TV)

There are a huge amount of options in the context menu.

Shortcut = ctrl+f7

Or, if you meant zoom to get rid of bars, use the pan and scan options.

I Have been using GOM as my primary video player for ages now, the only codecs I have installed are quicktimeALT, and realALT. My favorite video player ever.

I am connecting my laptop to the tv and it can play fine. I am asking.. what settings should I use on GOM Player? Like 5.1 audio... or 16:9 (HDTV) or whatever else?

This all depends on the tv, and audio setup you are using. If you have a 5.1 system, then use 5.1 audio, if your screen is a different aspect ratio, you might need to change it. Trial and error is your friend.

I will probably try out Gom, but I'm really loving KMPlayer now that I'm getting a hang of the options. I know this isn't the right thread, but I was asking how to set Windows Media Player 11 to 4:3 aspect ratio? It annoys me how playing videos through it and Media Center always have the black bars. I cannot for the life of me find the video option to change the aspect ratio in Windows Media Player 11. Surely there is one, right??

Yeah. I set it to 16:9 video and 5.1 audio. What other options should I choose?

What output should I choose? Overlay Mixer... VMR9? or something else?

What else?

Don't worry about the renderer, it won't make a big difference. Whichever it defaults to on your machine should work fine.

    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
    • That's a good number until the game you want to play is not in that list. 
    • So, the logo means No ducking AI?
    • For sure, humanity us highly unlikely to survive the helium flash. Even if we have colonized moons in the outer planets by then, that is such a monumental change in heat output, coupled with the destruction of Earth, it's unlikely we could be fully prepared for changes of that scale.
