x64ComponentsPM Standalone Installer.


Current releases support 4K,  HDR<>SDR, and 3D decoding.

4K UHD /HDR, HEVC and MVC decoders are available to all players.

These releases come with a simple installer.
Once installed, a powerful, yet simple to use GUI is available, giving you full control of the codecs.
The included player, MPC-Black Edition, is under active development and I keep these releases up to date.

Recently, there has been a major re-write of the GUI itself and the filters they control. Support for MKV on the xbox360 was dropped along with the removal of several depricated codecs. I hope you enjoy these new releases and can find the time to send a small donation in support of continued maintainance into the future.

Top 10 features of the recent Settings Application rewrite:
1. Remove all unnecessary code associated with the deprecated codec removal
2. Re-organize the entire layout to be more intuitive, user friendly and visually appealing
3. Allow the user to click anywhere on the App to relocate the Settings Application on the screen
4. Add an Always On Top feature to keep the Settings Application in view
5. Activate the previous instance ot the Settings Application when trying to open a new instance
6. Require Administrative privileges upon startup eliminating the need to rightclick
7. New user accounts are detected and automatically setup upon openning the App
8. Colorize and capitalize important functions to promote their significance
9. Automatically resize the App relative to the display resolution and use high quality text
10. Over 4000 lines of hand written code were scrutinized for quality and functionality
All functions are performed instantaneously. The moment you select something, the action is performed.
If you ever find yourself broken, simply press the [RESET ALL] button to return to a just installed state.

Top 10 things the Shark pack does better than other packs . . .
1. Full color thumbnails including FLV's and 10bit MKV's provided by Icaros.
(also allows users to select at what point by percentage to grab the thumbnail)
2. Enable the Preview Pane for ALL newly enabled filetypes such as MKV and FLV.
3. Explorer properties are displayed for non native filetypes such as MKV and FLV
4. Updated often - and has update notification builtin
5. Simple installer; allows user to choose what to install, and where.
6. Support playback of MOD audio files and M4A files containing ALAC
7. Supports playlist creation for use in Media Center
8. Allow users to Enable/Disable codecs installed on their system
9. Functionality such as Win7DSFilterTweaker and Codec Tweak Tool builtin.
10. Support 'Add to Windows Media Player List' using rightclick on all files such as FLV.

The Settings Application is 100% UAC compliant.
Restricted access is enforced. (User Account Control)
The Application allows each user to maintain individual codec settings while at the same time seamlessly integrating any administrative commands directly into the users account. New users accounts are detected upon opening the Application and automatically inherit the Administrators settings.

To enhance the user experience, stable versions of Media Player Classic Black Edition (MPC-BE) player have been added to the x64ComponentsPM installation along with the madVR video renderer providing users with 'out of the box' 4k (UHD) HDR playback and also 3D MVC playback. Of course, you'll need to own the hardware to enjoy this cutting edge support.
