Update to my post below:
hmm... i have to correct my theory. The streaming links do work only for IE without any problem, but not for Firefox :(
When i click on the those think using Firefox MPC poped up but then stopped and nothing happened. The problem is that MPC cannot parse the streaming files inside the .asx/.mms automatically, but when i put the same link manuel into "Open Files", it runs smoothly again. Also, MPC has there a problem.

@ DC101 Streaming Audio:
I am using Media Player Classic 6.4.9.0 and got the same problem with "Failed To Render File." on streaming files. After updating MS Windows Media Player from v9 to v10 this problem is gone and i can watch video online now. The problem is definitive NOT the MPC! as:

a) i have to much installed and re-/uninstalled the K-Lite Codec Pack for test, so that some files probably have been removed or the registry was changed, which the MPC is obviously using them; or
b) The problem happen to all versions after 6.4.8.4. That means, newer versions cannot live with the old WMP v9 library.

These files failed to watch 2 hours before of this posting, but now everything is OK:

The Real test of MPC is it's ability to play DVDds and so far I am not impressed. It works just about OK on my system with XP Pro but on Windows 98SE it is a failure. The MPC that comes with Real Alternative just creates visual jibberish when you try to play DVDs. Using the MPC v6.4.8.9 optimised for Windows 98 it does actually play DVDs but there is a peculiar effect of movement speeding up and slowing down. I have tried the various options in the Direct show video output, but to no avail. On XP movement is not entirely smooth but just about acceptable. MPC on XP uses 85% of CPU resources.

This could be a consequence of my hardware, ie a 1.2Ghz Via C3 processor and a GA-60XTA m/b with 133Mhz bus speed.

Does anyone know of another option for playing DVDs without buying a DVD decoder? What about Stinkey's MPEG2 decoder?

I converted some file with virtualdub . Some famous player can't play "converted files" but Media classic player can .Oh ! surprising !
I think that disadvantage of Media-classic-player is that it can't make play-list . If Media-classic-player can make play-list and manage them efficiently , I will always use Media-classic-palyer :)

Very good. You can fix the errors on opening a file bug by selecting mpc to play all your videos. The bug is caused by filenames that have spaces in them so you can either fix by
1) setting mmc to play all videos (works but who knows why) or 2) fixing all your filenames to get rid of spaces.

MPC v6.4.8.9 cannot handle URLs(http://..., mms://...) whether open from 'Favorites' or enter under 'File Open' menu. It returns error message, "File not Found". That's a bummer. Previous versions handle URLs flawlessly.

And, does anyone knows how can I see subtitles in mp4 (Nero Digital) movies? Movies are encoded from DVD's with Nero Recode, and they are "built-in" in the movie... BS Player can play those subtitles without any tweaks!

Clean, simple ... and a security risk.

Windows Media Player has a couple of switches that MPC does not -- the ability to *stop* media files from running scripting.

What with unscrupulous people embedding URL calls to websites into movie files now, I cannot justify allowing the install of MPC.

I can't open any streaming media either. It appears that the newer versions of MPC aren't trying to connect (I don't get a prompt from my firewall). v6.4.8.4 works fine, however. I reported this on Sourceforge, but no one responded.

Hi Guys

It's me again. I have been tearing my hair out in frustration trying to install the Media Player Classic that comes with RealAternative on my second XP partition. I was getting 'failed to render file' messages with each attempt to open wma and wmv files after having installed the latest windows media codec pack for WMP6.4. The answer was found in a Doom9 forum. Open View>Options>Tweaks and untick the box for 'Use Wm ASF Reader with Windows Media Files'. Unfortunately there is no help file with this program and the zipped document you can download will not open. Thank God for Google huh?

I love the no nonsense user interface of this programm with menus for File, View, Play, Navigate, Favourites and Help just like a proper Windows program. Winamp may do a better business of playing your media files but it has a ghastly user interface.

Incidentaly mpeg-4 support is not integral with MPC as I wrote before. You have to install the WMP6.4 codec pack.

I cannot recommend this program (MPC 6.4.8.4) too highly. It realy does play everything you could possibly want without code bloat or instability. I tried the WMP8 that I recieved with XP professional but I had endless trouble with error messages and files that would not open. I tried WMP9 and the same thing happened. MPClassic is a relatively small stand alone program with built in decoding support for DVD, mpeg-2 mpeg-4 AC3, CDA and mp3s among other things so it will play anything you buy in the shops without having to buy a software or hardware DVD decoder. Brilliant! You need to download the wm9 codecs for WMP6.4 to play the latest wma and wmv files. Better still get the MPClassic bundled with Real Alternative and you can junk Real Player. While you are at it get Quick Time alternative and then you are set up for just about everthing ther internet you throw at you.

As far as picture and sound quality go I see no advantage in WMP9 so all it has to offer are gimmicks like skins, CD library and internet radio.

Only problem is that I use a product called XPlite to get rid of the WMPs bundled with XP but then MPClassic does not work. Any solutions anyone?

Some XVID or DIVX video files cannot be played started from V6.4.8.6. The files can be opened by MPC but they won't play even you press play or pause button. The last workable version is 6.4.8.5 or below. Please look into the problem or maybe suggest how to tweak it.
