Build 20261110-1250 — source code.
- Shaders that take long to compile no longer freeze the picture: the video keeps playing without them while they are prepared in the background, and they switch on when ready. The statistics show them as preparing meanwhile.
- Removed "Clipping Protection": it silently replaced the chosen tone mapping function with Spline. For the same result, switch on Enable Peak Detection and choose Spline, or Auto for HDR10+ videos.
- Fixed the aspect ratio override, stretching and zoom of MPC-HC and MPC-BE having no effect: the renderer now draws into the video area the player sets.
