    I have:
    ACER laptop AMD turion x2 with ATI Radeon 4570 HD
    Windows 7 64bit.
    Memory : 4GB
    I've installed Mpc-hc 1.6.0.4014 (32bit version)
    CCC Pack 2011-11-11

    At the begining memory is ~ 1,2GB
    I start to see the mkv video and the pc starts to freeze, stack and all that things.
    I 've noticed that memory goes to ~3,6GB. Even if i close the player memory still stacked there. Only if i reboot or log out and then log in memory goes to normal.

    I have uninstall and install again and again mpc, cccp (clear the registry with ccleaner),nothing

    I am using cccp and mpc for years and i am addicted to them

    Please help me.

    Thanks in advanced

    Please post a MediaInfo report about "THE" mkv file.

    Perhaps the problem is in that file, and not in MPC-HC, nor in the "communist" codec pack

    There is no such thing as a "good addiction"

    For .MKVs especifically, for now I prefer AV Splitter, and Haali's has become a big no-no to me.

    Every rule has an exception

    Could you explain to me? I download it, install it and then what? How i will use it with mpc?
    Download 32 or 64bit version?

  4. Instead of rebooting, start Task Manager (Alt+Ctrl+Del) and see if MPCHC is still running (Processes tab). If so, kill it from there (right click on it and select Kill Process Tree). The memory it was using should now be free.

    No Jagabo. That's the weird. At the task manager, Processes tab, if you sum the memories of the all applications you will missed ~2GB!!

    MPCHC is not in the list

  6. Enable "show processes from all users".

    I'd suggest a good 12 step program and yank mpchc and all those damn codecs. I won't use it anymore.

    SMplayer or vlc will play mkv's just fine. Without codecs. I don't really use vlc for file playing much anymore.

    With an mkv it's usually .264 encoding and that's more demanding on system resources to play than other formats. I findh.264 video plays a lot better if you have a decent sized cache for local files/streams. VLC 2.0 may not have that capability anymore, from what I've seen, and that would be a big demerit.

    mpchc may have a setting for increasing file cache size but, like I said, I wouldn't know anymore. Its settings are silly anyway.

    More options:

    --- try an older build of MPC-HC, and do NOT use the internal filters ;

    --- with or without an up-to-date MPC-HC, NEVER "install" it, just keep all its settings in a .INI file ;

    Maybe these suggestions will not solve your current problem , BUT
    at least they will eliminate other annoyances
