I think we all experienced frame drops and artifacts in avi movies which is pretty annoying if it happens during the whole movie. I found a media player called HDngn which is able to interpolate new frames in realtime using Direct Show and Open GL. This is achieved by using frames more than once and algorithm that recalculate everything in realtime.
I would not say it is the perfect media player yet but it surely has some nice interesting features that no other player offers yet. The drawback is that it currently supports only a limited amount of filetypes and not enough possibilities to change the configuration of the player at all. It took a while until I was able to remove the logo of the player from the upper right corner. I had to edit the lua file which was used to init the interface.
Removing everything that had to do with citus and juicy helped and got rid of the logo that overshadowed the movie. It is possible to rotate, zoom and change the aspect ratio of the movie in realtime which is a nice feature.
Playing videos is easy as well. Just drop a movie into the player and click on play. It is working on all versions of Windows including Vista and is free to use.

i get a message box that the player has encountered an error and needs to close
@martin:
the logo disappears automatically after the playback starts, so there is no need to edit the lua-script…;)
That’s strange – it did not disappear when I was playing files.
really? it should disappear (~1 sec after “play” was pressed) – until you “move” your mouse (again): then the menu/osd and the logo will return…
Maybe I moved the mouse all the time ;)
The Error Box should be gone after installing the “MS-VC2005 redistributable files” as explained in the FAQ. Logo and Menu does also not disappear as long as the Mouse is over one of the Buttons/Scrollbar. Fell free to send questions to our eMail-Adress. HDngn can playback any Files a DirectShow filter is installed for, and works perfect with ffdshow (a DirectShow filter for nearly everything like the VLC-Player). Have Phun with our Product, and keep looking as we constantly try to improve it…
FYI: We released a new version on 21.03.07…;)
juicyPlayer v.0.8.3.zip
We implemented completely free access to playback speed from “stop” up to “2x”. Try to change the playback speed and see what “frame interpolation” really means…;)
