You change the renderer to madvr and mpc-hc will launch madvr whenever you watch something. Madvr has a tray icon for managing stuff

I highly doubt that, but even if it did, the amount of resources something uses doesn't necessarily correlate with how bloated it is. Bloated means a lot of different things in different contexts to different people. A lot of people will call something bloated in terms of the codebase, cruft, dependencies it relies on, useless stuff that should be considered out of scope, etc.

mpv has a lot of different options that effect CPU usage and memory usage. I'm not sure what a "comparable MPC-HC setup" might mean in this regard.

I'm not him, but you're only uploading screnshots of BDMV's. Most people aren't going to have access to these, or be willing to download them even if they do.

I actually have the Lain BD's from Geneon downloaded though, here's a shot with vdpau output on latest mpv. Surprise surprise, it's no different. Comparing upscaling methods by taking external screenshots of upscaled video, rather than screenshots of video at native resolution, tends to get better results. I don't like screenshot comparisons in general anyway. There is differences I clearly see with the VDPAU renderer that don't show up on screenshots. It actually uses an overlay too, which used to make external screenshots of it show up blank. So it's not silly to say that what you're seeing on the screen while it's playing would be different than the result of a screenshot.

You also didn't tell me what frame. I had to go through each frame comparing the grain to find which one that was. The fact you actually got someone willing to appease your request in this thread was very lucky.

>Feel free to give it a try yourself.

I don't have any Windows machines. If you wanted to test mpv's resource usage, I would rather have it be tested on Linux too with various setups, as I don't really know how well the Windows builds preform. This is something that's pretty hard to test accurately.

>And that's an incredibly silly way of evaluating something for an end user

Not at all. It often directly correlates with user experience. Efficiency, stability, robustness, ease of use, overall quality, etc.

We're trying to compare MPC-HC to mpv, though, and that doesn't work if we compare Windows to Linux at the same time. Do you have reason to believe the Windows builds are faulty? Either way, I'd say it would work a good sight better than trying to make MPC-HC and the other doodads up to work properly on Linux. Not to mention that if you're debating between the two in the first place, it would only make sense that you're using Windows for that very reason.
>It often directly correlates with user experience.
Then you should just be judging that from the start.
>Efficiency, stability, robustness
I could be running into definition differences again, but I'd say lower resource usage is better efficiency. I never had either MPC-HC or mpv crash or malfunction, so that's a wash based on my experience.
>ease of use
That comes down to interface, and has no direct connection to clean code.
>overall quality
Not sure what you mean by that. Is there some other factor you'd say is a part?

You want to give an unfair advantage to Windows by testing the Windows builds of mpv. The main developer who does 90% of the work mainly develops on and for Linux. That's not to say that he completely neglects other platforms, or there isn't some other people dedicated mostly to the OSX or Windows support for mpv, but it's very obvious that Linux gets far more attention/development/testing/QA than any other platform here. The same is true for many projects mpv relies on, like ffmpeg. In general the entire stack is developed on and targeted at Unix systems.

mpv builds are compiled by some random guy with mingw too. This isn't to say that you couldn't download these mpv builds and they wouldn't just work, but I think it's unfair to test mpv outside Linux, or at least OSX. Like I said, this is not something easy to accurately test.

>but I'd say lower resource usage is better efficiency

I still highly doubt this claim.

>That comes down to interface

No it doesn't. That's only one part of ease of use. For example I call using simple plaintext configuration files with command-line options in them ease of use.

>has no direct connection to clean code.

I'm going to reiterate the most relevant point: if you're using Linux, mpv is the only one of the two that will function properly. There's no comparison to be made. Thus, if you're wanting to compare them side-by-side, Windows is the sensible platform to do it on.
>I still highly doubt this claim.

It works perfectly fine on lower resolution videos.

I assume there's no way to make mpv automatically switch between the two depending on the internal resolution of the video?

I.E if it's larger than 1920x1080 it uses VDPAU and it it's below 1920x1080 it uses opengl.

Though shit, if I can get better results with higher resolution videos using VDPAU instead of opengl then I'll choose that.

You could create a script to probe videos for their resolution with something like mediainfo, then start mpv based off those. Although this is probably going to make opening videos much slower. I don't know of a simple easy way to get the resolution of a video that is really fast.

I created a custom action for it in nautilus, and open videos with it.

I am trying to comprehend what made you think this.

X11 has this really great feature, where you can hold alt and then click anywhere on ANY window, then move it around, or instead right anywhere on ANY window, then resize the window.

You don't even have to aim for borders. Although, resizing by clicking on the boder works perfectly like it should with mpv.

No, placebo just describes the effect of you believing that something has to be better and that being the major tipping factor. Real medicine has a powerful placebo effect too.

If you think MadVR isn’t placebo, then you’re seriously underestimating the placebo effect. The minuscule improvements can’t compare to the effect of religious zealots placeboing themselves into believing that it’s the best thing ever.

No you can't. With specifically only mpv just clicking anywhere on the video should let you move the window, but that's just mpv.

You are missing the point, you dumb piece of shit. On X11 you can do this with ANY window, it's not dependent on specific programs. I didn't mean to imply no other program had a default binding like mpv to move the window on clicking.

This has nothing to do with mpv or MPC-HC, it has to do with X11 vs Microsoft Windows. You couldn't hold alt, then right click anywhere on any window and resize it, nor could you hold alt, then left click anywhere on any window and be able to move it.

Your first claim that you couldn't resize the mpv window for some reason was odd. That's an issue in your window manager, not mpv. I just find it funny that a Windows user is saying anything bad about other's people capability to move/resize windows easily.

You seem to be mad. MPC-HC (because this is the name of the player) doesn't have all the variety of keybinds that is available on mpv, and you'll have to struggle with the mouse for every little command
>>45645970

Please explain how you get this functionality on Windows then.

You are most likely not understanding what I'm saying, or understanding the feature I'm talking about. I am not talking about mousing over to the border of a window and resizing it, I am talking about clicking anywhere on a window.

>>45646028
Not anyone you're replying to, but MPC-HC and almost everything related to it is free software except madVR. Kind of funny you're calling people freetards. Why don't you just go use nothing but all the great propreitary software like Realplayer?

I would still prefer mpv even if madVR was freely licensed, and MPC-HC, madVR, and all of that worked natively on Linux,

You really need to learn the difference between your windowing system, and the program running inside a window. This is retarded shit I would expect to hear from /b/, perhaps you need to go back there.

>>45646132
> I click in the centre of the the media player. On the video area itself

You're obviously the one with comprehension issues. I even captilized the point you are not understanding. ANY WINDOW. Not just one specific program that allows for this functionality, ANY WINDOW FROM ANY PROGRAM.

You can hold alt, then left or right click on ANY SPOT OF ANY WINDOW, then be able to MOVE the window, or be able to RESIZE the window.

Do you understand, you sub-90 IQ fucking moron?

They will say that if you take the borders off your window, and your windowing system is reliant on the need to click on borders for resizing windows, then that is an issue with your windowing system.

They will say that there is no way they are going to be adding in huge bloat to work resizing capability from inside the mpv window, when that is a job for your windowing system.

Almost all x86 software for Linux is also supported on x86_64.

I don't think you could give a comparable example of some software on Linux like this. A situation where you have a bunch of software that is all 64bit, but has one plugin that is 32bit only.

Linux isn't immune to some old 32bit-only stuff, but for the most part the only things that are still 32-bit only are proprietary Windows software.

Dude whenever you need to upscale a source that has lower res than your screen, then you will always need either what you suggested or mpv.

Look what chroma and luma upscaling are and why you need a good renderer for that.

I tried MPC and I don't really see what the fuss is. Granted, I don't download many videos larger than 1.5GB because I don't really care if the video quality is 80% instead of 100%. The last time I tried to use MPC, I ran into two audio issues on the same video. One was synchronization, the other was that, for some reason, the video only had the left track of the audio. While I may have been able to find a way to correct the synchronization in MPC, I never got that far because I couldn't find a way to switch audio tracks. This is something that's very easy to do in VLC. Synchronization is also very easy to achieve with VLC.

So, say what you like about VLC being shitty; I find it to be easier to use and the video quality to be acceptable. I really don't want to fight with a program to get it to do what I want when I'm supposed to be relaxing, thank you.

>>45647267
Neither of you know what that word means.

Nowhere in the definition does it say either "deliberately ineffective" or "not doing anything at all".

MadVR is a placebo, because madVR users greatly exaggerate it's performance increase. The performance increase is largely imagined. A telephone can play 1080p these days, using a crossfire graphics setup to output the same file at the same resolution using madvr to overwork your system is not going to make it look much better than on anything else. Video playback is not resource intensive, unless you force you force it to be. But there's no logical reason to do that other than trying to justify why you spent 2000 dollars on a computer just to watch chinese cartoons.

Sorry, but madVR is not for mental relief, I see a difference to VLC.

MPV is a placebo because I don't see a difference to MPC-HC+madVR.

It gives you mental relief because of it's license and Unix philosophy. Other than that MPV does jackshit. MPV is the placebo.

I used it as a euphemism for me pegging him with my meat-strapon.

Justifying the money spent on a high end system that is only used for watching video is treating the users insecurity.

MPC is a placebo because I don't see a difference to mpv.

Think of madVR as a plug-in for MPC. It's basically what renders the video. The video file goes through a decoding process, then through the renderer which tells the player (MPC) what to display. All you have to do is install both and change the renderer to madVR in MPC's settings. Google around (something like "how to set up MPC with madVR"), there are plenty of guides on how to do it.

As long as AMD's APUs and intel's HD Graphics won't support MPV or madeshi at full quality I don't see how you have a point there.

Integrated still is shit, maybe 2 more years.

Finally we have reached the point of circular arguments!

Your god is more shit because I invented mine first.

Just call it a renderer like adults.
Look up what splitters are as well.

5cm right? Is the story cute and worth watching?

He said he was a newbie, I was just trying to dumb things down to be easier to understand. Yes, I'm a spoonfeeder. I'm having a good day.

5cm is great, but that one's not it. That one is "Garden Of Words", but either way I would recommend both if you're in for a feels trip.

Install Gentoo first

But they do, unless you want horribly inefficient shit that was never meant to be a scaling algorithm like NNEDI3.

Fetish: Garden

I was devastated by 5cm because I could relate to it at the time. It's about long-distance relationships. Mine's an unbiased review, but that one was the most feel-inducing to me (although I think anyone can suffer from watching it).

The art in both of them is beautiful (as is all of Makoto Shinkai's work) and it has plenty of great depictions of natural phenomena (namely petals falling off of sakura trees) which helps create a more emotional ambiance.
