I did a clean format-reinstall of Windows 10. I have not followed the media player shitposting war since MPC-HC+madVR was the hot shit.
What's good now? MPC-HC is dead but there's a fork that updates the LAV filters once in a while, then there's the other MPC (BE?). Do I still need madVR for hardware options if I go with the MPC route?
Then there's MPV, is it really good or is it shilled here only because muh command line and linux versions?

MPC-HC with MadVR still hot shit but with the new MPV.NET on windows its kinds of better

MPV basically allows you to have all the "other stuff" that used to have to come with MPC-HC/BE etc... (ie madVR+LAVFilters+AssFilterMod etc) built in.
It is actually really good. You can either use it in its native form with the minimal UI (with a .conf file for setting things up. There are lots to be copy and pasted for max image quality etc), but there are also more conventional MPC-HC / VLC like players with a UI, yet have MPV as their engine so all the benefits are right there.
SMPlayer for instance is a good example - you just make one dropdown change in options and use mpv!

Never believe mpv.net posters.

Besides SMPlayer, Media Player Classic Qute Theater (MPC-QT) is a good idea, as is the really full featured Kawaii Player (it even has media server shit in it if you want or torrent streaming etc)

MPC-HC does not need more updates
if you need newer filters just download them separately
my setup is simply MPC-HC + madVR + XySubFilter

I just get SVP, ready made settings for madVR and comes with a Youtube-DL plugin and other stuff.

mpv is the best option. Just associate the media files correctly, and edit the config once and you're good to go.
