lucabutera Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Hello guys, these days due to error I lost my codech265 file that ran Premiere pro cc 2015 without cloud, so I took the opportunity to update the operating system of my PC from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 10. In checking the update of new programs I came across an attractive media player that plays h265 files smoothly consuming 30% less than MPC-HC, I recommend you try it, I have not detected virus or malware inside and they they only ask for a small optional donation. Who has suggestions come forward! link: https://www.smplayer.info/ Matthew Hartman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christrad Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Sorry but it seems your player can't handle h264 4k smoothly like MPC-HC does. So I'm not even trying h265. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you work with hack 180Mbit/s and need to see the clips without jerky or heat up the cpu , the smplayer make the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMGJohn Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 MPC-HC works just fine for me though, you have to remember the only reason why SMPlayer seem to work better is because it has hardware acceleration for H265 built in which MPC-HC older versions lacked but it has it available in newest versions for me anyway, my 15W TDP AMD APU runs the NX1 HEVC files fine.

Juxx989 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Im still rocking POTPlayer for my H265 needs its free google it if intrested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucabutera Posted December 19, 2017 Author Share Posted December 19, 2017 I testing: SMPlayer - MPC-HC - PotPlayer. In the next time I will repeat the test, making the hard drives work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisaha Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Pot player seems to work the best here, less temperatures, less rpm. For editing laptops, that heat is a premium, it would be ideal. I, too use Media Player Classic and Pot player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For editing laptops, that heat is a premium, it would be ideal. I, too use Media Player Classic and Pot player. All temperatures are similar, around 80 °. In truth, the Potplayer is the one that handles the GPU and the motherboard worse, thus increasing the work of the CPU, in general, however, it is also the one that heats up less.

Matthew Hartman Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Windows 10 supports it natively. That being said, in the recent fall creator's update it's no longer bundled with the OS, you have to download and install it seperately: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/hevc-video-extension/9n4wgh0z6vhq To get smooth playback with HEVC, I reccomend a proccesor with at least 6 cores. Once you have a system and NLE that can smoothly handle h.265, you understand the power and value of the format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Tecno Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 My old but mighty i5820k @ 4.4ghz handles perfectly h.265. I now also have a 1080ti which has hw support for it, so the cpu stays at 1%.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a 1080ti and it barely gets taxed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Tecno Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Are you sure about this? I use afterburner and it clearly shows that 1080ti is used during playback...the cpu stays very low when playing, while before, with fury x, it was higher.

Marco Tecno Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Oh possibly then, but I never had an issue even w/o 1080ti, just higher cpu load than with 1080ti ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Tecno Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Oh, btw, my lg b7 tv natively plays nx1 videos w/o a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
