NEW
A new build of libmpv-2.dll is included in the zip file. In the previous version of the library there is a minor issue when toggling subtitles on/off (Ctrl-[S]) where the MPV library reports them as off when they're on, and on when they're off, even though the subtitles were actually displaying as required. Consequently, in MMP when you turned subtitles off, MMP reported subtitles on, and when you turned them on, MMP reported subtitles off in the bottom right corner of the main media window. The new build (2025/04/05) fixes this.

Minor Change
When exporting segments of an edited audio or video file (Ctrl-[E]), for neatness and clarity in your File Explorer software, the segments are labeled “.seg01.”, “.seg02.”, etc.

FIXED
- A minor issue introduced in v4.1.1: the nextFolderOnEmpty=no setting in MinimalistMediaPlayer.conf wasn't correctly adhered to following a Ctrl-[K] (Keep/Delete) or a Ctrl-[Del] (delete folder contents) or when deleting the last media file in a folder. In each case, MMP should exit but wasn't. - the minor issue with the subtitles (see above).

Known Issues
The What's New? facility in the Ctrl-[A] About Box no longer shows any images included in these release notes. This seems to be because GitHub now hosts these images on amazonaws and the GitHub URL returns a 404 in MMP but works correctly in my internet browser. I currently don't have a solution other than possibly rewriting the auto-update process using an entirely different set of Delphi components instead of the Indy (Internet Direct) ones. If you have a solution or can even point me in the direction of the problem, please feel free to share!

Quick Install
The quickest way to get up and running with MMP is to

1. run the mmp-install.bat file which will register all the file extensions that MMP supports*.
2. rename the example MinimalistMediaPlayer.conf_ file by removing the _ so that MMP uses it.
3. double-click any media file (audio, video, image) in your File Explorer software.

* mmp-uninstall.bat unregisters them.

Any issues, please let me know Issues

Wiki site
The fully-detailed wiki at minimalistmediaplayer.com continues to grow. The Wiki greatly expands on the brevity of the Ctrl [H] help panels by providing comprehensive info to help you get the most out of using all of MMP's many controls and configurable options.

If there is a particular aspect of MMP that you would like more information about, let me know and I will add a topic to the Wiki or enhance an existing topic.

Asset files
The “…full.zip” release file below contains everything you need to run MMP: Minimalist Media Player:

- MinimalistMediaPlayer.exe
- MediaInfo.dll
- libmpv-2.dll
- ffmpeg.exe
- libeay32.dll
- ssleay32.dll

N.B. Only MinimalistMediaPlayer.exe will be updated automatically. If the zip file contains newer versions of the other files, you should update and test these for yourself to ensure they will run on your Windows system. MMP will not make that assumption and overwrite your working versions. You are advised to make a copy of the older versions in case you need to revert to them.
