Hardware accelerated movies and subtitles with diacritics on Windows Media Player - video tutorial

Hi friends, this video tutorial will show you what hardware acceleration for watching movies on the desktop, the CPU load will be close to zero even when playing a movie MP1080 4p container with AVC High Profile video (h264 @ 2.2 Mbps) and 128 Kbps AAC audio.
Normally such a video file consume a lot of resources to run if hardware acceleration is used (+ video card Nvidia Cuda or Stream AMD).
We know very well that most users use BSPlayer for video, unfortunately this player is not very efficient, it does not handle hardware acceleration very well. Among the "after market" players I can warmly recommend the Classic Media Player that comes integrated in the KLite codec package, also VLC Media Player is a very powerful player. Apart from the two, there are definitely others, but I can only recommend what I used.
By far the best player for the Windows platform is Windows Media Player, the more the new version better. Media Player has excellent integration with Windows and speaks very good video card, the CPU consumption when running Sintel 1080p MP4 is extremely small, sometimes 1%. Miracle comes from the fact that Windows Media Player is the perfect anchor system and can use resources without problems.
What is hardware acceleration?
Hardware acceleration means the use of components dedicated to specific task instead of a program that can keep the processor busy. In our case we use hardware acceleration means that the GPU video card is very suitable for this task, video cards like to play with pixels and as you can imagine a movie is a line of pixels on the screen and play sound in speakers by chance or not the latest models of video cards and sound cards integrated.
Graphics cards have a fantastic power of parallel processingCan make many operations simultaneously unlike serial processor makes calculations, one task at a time, which is why there are many core processors with hyperthrading, such as a processor core and hyperthrading has 4 8 execution lines with multicore processors and hyperthreading technology can do more things at once. Compared with 8 processor threads, a video card is up to several thousands of cores that can be used in parallel (Nvidia Cuda cores GTX660 has 960). There would be a lot to talk about GPU and CPU, maybe we will miss the problem in more detail on another occasion. Now let's go back…
One of the reasons people do not use Windows Media Player for playing movies is the lack of options in terms of subtitles. That's no problem, you just need to install Klit Codec Pack and the problems are solved, in the codec pack we also have the "DirectVobSub" book, which allows us to do what we want, from changing the fonts to displaying the diacritics and much more.
Another reason people do not use Windows Media Player is that the Windows version is not licensed. You should not worry, Microsoft already knows what's up and I do not think it would start a crusade in Romania.
Overall, I recommend Windows Media PlayerEspecially if you have an older processor but still want to watch HD movies.
You should remember that before installing the Klit Codec Pack you need to install the latest drivers for your video cards.
Other:
Maybe you want to enable diacritics and for writing the keyboard on Windows. You need this if you use Office, PDF, Documents, composition, etc.. To learn how to activate writing accented Romanian keyboard and I invite you to watch the tutorial: How to enable writing with diacritical marks (A, I, S, T, A) on Windows 7

  • I know it's an off-topic question but can you tell me why you moved from Windows to Windows 8 7? There any major disadvantage for Windows 8?

  • perhaps a tutorial about this program is more complex than many windows media player and it do not know if you can see video 3D

    • Double click on directvobsub as Cristi did in the tutorial and at General you choose the extend to 16: 9 option and at Text Settings you click on the respective font and again where Screen Alignment & Margins says put Bottom: 0. I chose the Comic Sans Ms font and text size 20.

  • I prefer mpc-hc with lav filter and madvr I think it has the best clarity by giving up the potplayer and splash player (at bs player I gave up long ago the image is blurred) now everyone is free to use what he wants. I followed him with pleasure

  • I hope you haven't forgotten the continuation of the tutorials with and about MAC bone, sorry I don't want to sound annoying, good luck, and something else, I'm interested in your opinion about this operating system praised by a lot of people, I would like an opinion about how good it is and if you will use it, and one more thing, if you can configure a MAC system from components purchased separately as you do with a regular computer, how good it is in general in stability, reliability , operations with video editing programs, a comparison in general with windows and what components have support for this MAC system os, I have long been interested in configuring such a system, I really want your opinion, it is seen from a post that you have experience and that is extraordinarily good for everyone, THANK YOU

    I hope you do not forget to continue with tutorials and about Mac OS, sorry do not mean to sound nagging luck further, and another thing, I'm interested in your opinion about this operating system praised by a lot of people, I'd like an opinion to you about how good it is and if I use it, and another thing, if you can comfigura a MAC of the same components purchased separately as is done with an ordinary computer, how good is the overall stability, reliability , operations with video editing programs, a general comparison in which components are Windows and Mac OS support for this, I care much comfigurez me such a system, I really want your opinion, seen from a post as have experience and that's extraordinarily well for all, Thanks

    You are not ready yet, when you bend the spoon with the power of the mind ....
    Okay States, is on the road all the way but there are other issues in the playlist.

    • After you "fried" our imagination with MAC OS, which as you said is cheap, we checked on the net, of course we are looking forward to the continuation ................
