some of the fansubs start using 10bit video for their release.
so, this is the first time i watch 10bit video.
if someone know the solution please tell me how.
i want to watch anime on MPC, so dont tell me to stop use MPC and use SMP or other player...
my PC is using MPC x64. i have no intension on changing it to x86.

any recommended codec pack? (for x64 windows too)

Can you give a link to a 10-bit video torrent?

Are you running the latest build from xvidvideo.ru?

Have you tried fiddling with the MPC-HC bit-depth setting in the right-click > Renderer Settings > Presentation submenu?

when i switched over to 64 bit windows i started using 64 bit MPC thinking it would give me better results. all i realised is that 32 bit codecs are still better maintained than 64 bit ones. went back to 32 bit version and i enjoy playback like before.
i know you said you arent considering changing to x86 MPC but it sounds a little dogged...
anyway, sorry i cant help you out.

Why?

[IB] Ikoku Meiro no Croisée - 11 [720p] [10bit] [EF869E11].mkv
That video plays fine using
Media Player Classic HomeCinema (x86), 1.5.2.3112, MSVC2010
ffdshow tryouts project, svn 3914 (x86) - MSVC2010

regardless of whether I choose 10-bit Input/Output in the Renderer Settings.

Here's a great tutorial to run 10bit video in great quality: http://haruhichan.com/wpblog/?p=205 but you'll need to use mpchc x86 since the renderer used doesn't have a 64 bit version(or you could simply use another one).
But the simplest way to do it is to make sure you have the very last versions of everything since 10bit support hasn't been widely supported for very long.

I also really wanted to use mpchc 64bit but every time I try it, there's always a problem with some part of it so I strongly suggest you switch back to x86. For example, I installed all the latest 64bit things I needed to play 10 bit just about a week ago and using the exact same versions of everything, 64bit displayed a black screen and 32 bit was working fine.
