Does not work with MPC-HC.EXE 32bit in Win7 64
« on: September 22, 2012, 01:41 PM »
If I launch MPC-HC.EXE (Media Player Classic Home Cinema) and force priority to high under explicit rules when I start MPC-HC.EXE on it's own it seems to work (mostly). But if I play a movie by clicking on a file in Explorer it totally ignores the explicit rule (even though Process Tamer says it set it to realtime). It still shows as 'Normal'.

There are other process' that spike when a video is started.
Most notably on my computer is audiodg.exe, which doubles in memory.
Maybe these other process' need to be set to your preferences as well.

Thanks but although audiodg.exe is listed in Task Manager it is not listed in Pcoess Tamer (Yes I have the hide processes box unticked). Setting audiodg.exe high fails anyhow in task manager because it's a local service I am guessing.
