Download Media Player Classic – Home Cinema 1.6.5.6366

Media Player Classic is a small no-nonsense media player that looks like Windows Media Player 6.4 and is still a widely used program. However, Gabest, the original creator of this program, discontinued development a while ago. Media Player Classic Home Cinema was created based on the open source code. Like the original MPC, this media player, in combination with the ffdshow filter, can display just about anything it throws at it. Below is the changelog for version 1.6.5.
