Hello, dear readers! Welcome to Igromaniya.ru - the largest portal for computer and video games.
For those who are new to Igromania.ru, we will briefly tell you what is there and what tasks we set for ourselves. And if you come to us often, then you already know everything perfectly well - there is nothing to read here, it’s better to look at the blog, articles, news, watch the video and write in the comments!
For those who remained, let's start with how the site and the magazine are connected.

MAGAZINE "GAMING" AND PORTAL "GAMING.RU"
The editorial offices of the printed magazine “Igromania” and the portal “Igromania.ru” are closely interconnected, but we work completely independently of each other.
Therefore, reviews in a magazine and on a website may have different ratings for the same game. It also happens that a detailed article is sent to the magazine, and the latest and hottest impressions are sent to the website. Or vice versa. And so on. We have a lot of intersections, but we work in parallel.

ARTICLES OF THE MAGAZINE "GAMING" ON THE SITE
A month later, articles from “Gaming Addiction” are posted on the website and become available to everyone. See through archive of numbers. It happens that an article is published on the website before the publication of the magazine or shortly after, we always inform about this at the beginning of the article.
Key video materials from the disk are not posted on the site for public access. But some video materials in different versions are received both on the website and in the magazine. For example, a website may have a short version of a report, but a magazine may have a full version, and vice versa. This doesn't happen with all videos, of course.
In addition, new issues of “Gaming Mania” are announced on the website and can be purchased through "Gaming addiction Digital" approximately three days after the printed version goes on sale.

The Igromaniya.ru website stands on three pillars. More about them below.

FIRST WHALE: NEWS AND BLOGS
On the website - three information flows. This gaming news , iron news And single editorial blog “In Direct Text” .
Blog "In Direct Text" appeared relatively recently and allows the editors to directly share their thoughts and impressions with you.
We especially note tapeupdates on the site. Here you can immediately see what latest news, articles, videos, screenshots, wallpapers and, in the near future, blog posts have appeared on the site.

SECOND WHALE: ARTICLES
Preview(games in development) and review(reviews, reviews) - the backbone of Igromania.ru. We write about PC, and about Xbox, PS3, Nintendo and other consoles. In addition to them, special materials are published on any gaming and near-game topics - this is the “Special” section.
In the field of attention - eSports(separated into a separate section), mobile games (Android, iPad, iPhone) and software selections. And twice a month we answer readers’ questions in the section "Tribune".
As usual, it stands apart "Iron Shop", dedicated not only to computer hardware, but also to any devices of interest to players (this is not only computer mice, steering wheels and joysticks, but also laptops, tablets, e-readers, etc.).
Game guides and walkthroughs The site is rarely updated now, but the section remains, and we hope that in the future we will work on it more closely.

THE THIRD WHALE: VIDEO
Currently happening on the site updating the entire video section, so there is no point in going into details. Let’s just say that regular programs are planned, as well as one-time interesting materials, both intimate (sat in the editorial office and recorded) and reportage (from the scene of events and with living eyewitnesses caught by surprise).
In addition, we translate ourselves gaming trailers and create for them russian subtitles. Subtitles are turned off, you can watch with or without them. Not just trailers: developer video diaries and other interesting materials They also often end up on Igromaniya.ru. Yes, also with subtitles!
First we publish the video. Then we translate and add Russian text. This takes from one or two days to a week. In general, filming and translating the text of one video diary for about twenty minutes is up to six to eight hours of work or more. Yes, yes, from the outside it seems that it is easy, but in reality it is hellish work. If you don't believe me, try it yourself!

CCCP Codec Pack contains codecs that can play almost any video format without errors or conflicts.

The Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP) - a set of codecs for playing multimedia files, including media player Player Classic Home Cinema. CCCP codecs were developed with the sole purpose of ensuring correct playback of anime with subtitles, but due to its simplicity and versatility, this software package has become widely known and is rightfully considered one of the best codec sets for Windows.

These codecs are designed only for decoding media content (for playback), so the Combined Community Codec Pack does not include encoders and encryptors used to convert multimedia files.

CCCP cannot boast of such a rich set of codecs as, for example, but it was no coincidence that the USSR developers abolished support for many codecs, since for the vast majority of users there is no need for a large number of codecs required for operations that, with a high degree of probability, will never be used in demand.

The Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP) codecs are suitable for playing files of the following popular formats: AVI, OGM, MKV, MP4, FLV, 3GP, MP1, MP2, MP3, AC3, DTS, AAC, LPCM, FLAC, TTA, MPEG-2 , DivX, XviD, H.264, WMV9, FLV, MPEG-4 and some others.

Installing CCCP is extremely simple and should not cause any difficulties even for novice PC users.

Version: CCCP 2015-10-18

Size: 10 MB

Operating system: Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista

Language: English

Program status: Free

Developer: cccp-project

The best of the USSR electrophones. It has a heavy huge table, a varnished top panel, sides, and a front panel. An excellent starter for the entry level. Remember - Vega 002.

By the way, it has a very nice heavy alloy wheel, and it comes with two speaker systems 10-MAS-1. In general, the Vega 002 electrophone had very, very many modifications.

What are the advantages of this turntable - a heavy, massive table Unitra G600V, with an excellent, classic pasik-roller drive.

Vega 002 is an entry-level phone at a low price. It was once quite expensive. Millions of audiophiles and music lovers began their introduction to vinyl with this turntable - Vega 002.

In ninth place is Vega 109

As a rule, Vega 109 has an excellent Polish Unitra g602 table, separate tone and balance controls, low- and high-pass filters, as well as switchable loudness compensation.

By the way, Vega-109 has a stepped volume control. Appearance it is similar to Vega 110 - 120. Vega 109 is equipped with excellent two-way speakers 15ac-101.

In eighth place - Aria102

Vertak is very good for beginner and intermediate levels. Of course, in terms of sound quality it is inferior to Corvette 038, Arcturus-006, but overall it is a pretty good device.

Seventh place - Estonia EP 010

Excellent spinner with full automatic mincing. Why full? This is a turntable in which you can change tracks, just like a CD player. True, it does not come with a remote control, and you have to switch tracks by clicking the buttons.

Of course, this is not for everyone. Estonia EP 010 makes a very good impression - such rich, chic plastic, in general, looks cool. It is so thin, closed on top with a protective polished, dark lid. Cool!

Estonia EP 010 generally has a very, very cool design itself, this workbench looks quite interesting. It consists of two tonearms - this is a regular tonearm, where there is a needle, and next to it is a second tonearm, where there is a track tracking sensor.

Sixth place is the Vega 110 or 120 player

Externally, they differ in stroboscopes - round here, square here. In general, Vega 110 and Vega 120 are excellent turntables with a good table for their category.

In fifth place are two players at once - Radiotekhnika 001 and Radiotekhnika 101

They use a good engine, a wooden body, an electrophone table. Radio engineering looks better than Aria-102. At Radiotekhnika we see a good wooden table, an abundance of metal, and a minimum of plastic.

In fourth place - Arcturus-006

This is an excellent helicopter for the intermediate level. The s-shaped tonearm looks very good and sounds much better. And, by the way, it is better to replace the needle with a better one than the standard one. Arcturus-006 is a legendary model, it has a good direct drive drive.

In those days, this player was something of a fantasy and cost crazy money, but cheaper than the Corvette 038, which cost half the car. Arcturus-006 weighs about 10 kilograms, quite heavy.

In general, this device is worth attention; by the way, it is inexpensive at flea markets and after modifications it sounds, well, at least like a good, solid Hi-Fi device.

In third place is Corvette 038

Corvette 038 is Likhnitsky’s legendary turntable. It once sold for the price of half a car. In Soviet times, Corvette 038 was generally impossible to obtain.

Nowadays, again, it costs crazy money, something like 50 thousand rubles. Now, probably, the debate is still ongoing about which is better - Corvette 038 or Electronics 017.

In second place is Electronics 017

This turntable is distinguished by high rotation speed, minimum rumble and detonation. This is a great turntable with a straight tonearm and a great motor that is used on very expensive turntables.

Enough complex circuit This vertak has a unique technology of electrodynamic damping. Electronics 017 has direct drive and plays even the most crooked discs.

In first place - Electronics B1 01

The debate continues about whether the B1 01 or the Electronics 017 is better, but the Electronics B1 01 is perhaps the best helicopter from the Soviet Union. The appearance is not bad, excellent anti-skating, the controls are made not of plastic, but of aluminum.

On the plus side, I would also like to note a good, excellent heavy disc. Electronics B1 01 was developed by a group from Tbilisi, for which many, many thanks to them.

Elektronika B1 01 has a belt drive, a powerful cast zinc disk, by the way, a rather inertial, low-speed electric motor, excellent mechanical decoupling of the chassis, with a fixed electric motor.

The cast top panel is made of aluminum and equipped with stiffening ribs. After reworking this engine, a gorgeous high-quality sound is obtained. This device sounds much better than its mid-range Western counterparts.

There is no need to disparage Soviet technology - with direct hands and minor modifications, you get good sound quality and save a lot of money.

Somewhat overtime, but a new release - code name "Manatsu" (Midsummer) - has been released. As always, it contains fixes and optimizations found and done during the last release cycle.
Download for Windows Vista- Windows 7 - Windows 8.x.
! Known Issue! Due to file parsing optimization done in xy-VSFilter, reading of external subtitle files that are not saved as unicode is borked by default in CCCP, and non-ASCII symbols will get broken in this case. As a workaround, if you tend to play such files, it is recommended that you enable the internal subtitle renderer in MPC-HC (View?Options?Playback?Use the built-in subtitle renderer) ! Known Issue!
This bug was never noticed by any of the CCCP crew, or the testers, until very late in the release cycle, and thus it was chosen that the release would be done with this known issue instead of either waiting more, or suddenly switching binaries around .
The plan is to have a new release soon"ish after this, and until then the workaround should be enough.
Updated components:
LAV Filters 0.62.0.0-a731178
MPC-HC 1.7.6 (master@ebc29cf)
xy-VSFilter 3.0.0."305" (git 7f6a318)
General change log:
MPC-HC
MPC-HC no longer crashes during quick seeks with PGS subpictures when the internal subtitle renderer was used. Did not affect CCCP defaults.
Anamorphic ASS is now handled correctly in the internal subtitle renderer. This is one of the oldest standing bugs there were regarding the ISR, and we all thank kasper93 for the effort he put into fixing this after Daemon404 successfully trolled people regarding it.
The Play?Filters filter listing can now be easily copied to the clipboard, there is now a button for that in the top of the listing.
UI language selection has been moved to the options in MPC-HC.
Minor fixes and improvements in general.
LAV
PGS subpicture parsing improved in LAV Splitter.
LAV Video now supports VP7 video (for the two of you out there with samples).
LAV Video can now use the Media Foundation WMV9 decoder instead of the old DMO decoder.
FFmpeg used in LAV now uses native win32 threads instead of a pthreads wrapper.
Various fixes included in the updated FFmpeg.
xy-VSFilter
Various ASS parsing improvements by Plorkyeran. These also remove the A (ANSI/non-unicode code page) Windows API usage, which also breaks non-unicode subtitle parsing. As noted, MPC-HC"s internal subtitle renderer should be used instead in case you play such files.
Loading of UUEncoded fonts from ASS files is fixed.
A possible out-of-bounds array access was fixed. This has been in the code for more than a year, and no-one noticed it. It seems that no-one has subtitle files with UTF-8 data that end up in this area of ​​glyphs (or the rest of the code actually makes the bug impossible to happen).
Vobsub fixes that replace the old MPC-BE hackfix. Should lead to similar results as with the old hackfix, unfortunately. In MPC-HC these changes actually add proper fadein/-out.
