That sucks. Unlike other popular video players like VLC MPC doesn't suck ass. Hopefully they can find more developers rather than having to let it die.

How's it work compared to normal MPC? The video controls looks fairly different and it seems they added in a frame view when using the seekbar which is one thing MPC randomly doesn't have which it could use.

That sounds like a very nice hotel restaurant.
Now would be a good time to have Gordon Ramsay on speed dial.
