Media Player Classic Qute Theater recognition stopped working

[mfsoup]

Not sure what changed, but Taiga stopped working with the latest mpc-qt compiled on Windows. The old version of mpc-qt works with the same Taiga installation. Tested with Taiga v1.4.0-beta.2.

The new repository for mpc-qt is https://github.com/cmdrkotori/mpc-qt-origin. The link in #1 is outdated.

Is there a recent build that I can download?

Yes, a new build was just posted in the linked repo yesterday. I just tried the new build and it doesn't seem to be working with Taiga still.

I couldn't run that build, unfortunately. For some reason, it just closes immediately at startup without visible errors.

My best guess is that it's built with a newer version of Qt and the class name that is used to detect the application window has changed. Could you help me test that?

First, please download WinSpy++ and drag its finder over mpc-qt's window to read the class name. It should be something like Qt5QWindowIcon or Qt5151QWindowIcon. In that case, the following should work:

1. Download players.anisthesia and copy it to Taiga\data\players.anisthesia.
2. Open the file with a text editor and find the Media Player Classic Qute Theater section.
3. Replace Qt5QWindowIcon with ^Qt.+QWindowIcon and save the file.
4. Restart Taiga.

Thanks, replacing Qt5QWindowIcon with Qt5151QWindowIcon found in WinSpy++ made it start working again.

Edit: not sure if this should be closed or not since you might be updating it on the repo.
