PotPlayer now Adware!

Thanks.

I know there's the adware issue , but I mainly stopped using because it had a few problems with hevc playback. Prior to that I used a portable adware version of it.

Can't recall ever running into an adware version, but do recall some alternate download sources (versions ?) being linked here. And my (minimal) use of this player had more to do with not particularly liking its user interface. But if I ever ran into a playback problem on some video -- with the "Go To" players VLC and MPC-BE -- I would probably take a look at how PotPlayer handled it, as a cross-check.

Another curious thing that I never quite figured out: sometimes subtitles will show up in one player, but not in another. That is, no matter what you set in Settings or the pulldown menus. But the subs were indeed present in (.MKV) or with the video (Srt., .SUB + .IDX, etc.), otherwise no player would display them.
