How does this look?

>>51222909
Spline32 is superior to spline64
Why not just use mitchell for downscaling?
icc-profile-auto doesn't work on Windows, you have to specify the path manually, ie. use icc-profile=profilepath
Wasn't smoothmotion deprecated and now implemented as interpolation?

Why isn't haasn making all these settings a default for opengl-hq or some other preset? Feels odd that I would need to adjust my configuration every week.

I know some better settings went to opengl-hq few months ago at least, but that's not satisfying enough.

I still use mpvhq because I don't feel like changing the opengl-vhq preset.

>>51223660
>Get a profile for your monitor
my monitor is really fucking old, like a 2005/2006 CRT, I doubt it will make a difference

>>51223967
It will, actually, CRT's were great for video
I'm using a 2003 Dell M992 (Trinitron rebrand), 98% sRGB coverage and pretty much perfect BT.1886 gamma
Though you're right, if your CRT phosphors haven't drifted bad like mine (mine has this massive green tint without correction) it probably is pretty close to sRGB, so
>target-prim=bt.709:target-trc=bt.1886
Should be good enough, if not perfect

>>51222909
Looks nice dude, the spline64/36/16 combo works well

only error I see is in the audio config, use this

But you can get profiles from the OpenSuSe profile taxi

or from review sites like notebookcheck or random forums, iirc overclockers.net has a forum dedicated to monitor profiling
A decent profile does wonders for some screens, like the screens on the T420/30

Recently in mpv news:
- Plex employs wm4, so consequently he is working on home theatre stuff like 7.1 passthrough.
- Display sync and interpolation in mpv-git should work better on Windows, though the changes are not in a release yet.
- Debanding is now built-in and used by default in opengl-hq.
- New NNEDI3 and Super-xBR scalers are in git.
- libass gets CoreText and DirectWrite support, so mpv on Windows and OS X can now use system fonts.
- ffmpeg-git gets DASH support for streaming 1080p YouTube videos.
- The dcadec guy isn't dead.

Why are some configs written on the vo= line and others are split 50/50 and others are all broken into new lines?

>>51225619
4chan breaks long lines and the vo= line can get pretty long. When you copy it into your config, you should remove the extraneous line breaks.

As for this guys config >>51224348, I'm pretty sure it's wrong and scale=, cscale=, dscale=, etc. are still opengl suboptions.

How can I play at 1.5x without getting chipmink sound? VLC does it fine. What should I do to acheive the same in mpv

>>51225697

--audio-pitch-correction

It's enabled by default, so you probably have a really old version of mpv. I think you have to use something like

--af=scaletempo

if your mpv is super old.

>>51225723
How do I update? I am on ubuntu by the way

>>51223674
- VLC doesn't have the same quality opengl rendering and upscaling.

- Seeking through video with VLC is much slower

- mpv has youtube-dl support, arguably making it the best player for watching online videos/streams there is.

- The codebase is much smaller, in general cleaner and more correct code

- Not bloated like VLC

- No ugly GUI or graphical toolkit dependencies

- Very active development

- Many command line options and almost all functionality can be provided through the command line.

- Configuration is done by putting command-line options in a text file, which is very easy, simple, and portable.

- VLC has a worse implementation of ASS, I've seen it fuck up subs before.

There is reasons to use VLC though:

- DVD menu support

>>51226117
Meant to ask: How is this? Is there any room for improvement?

I basically pieced my config together by looking at other peoples' configs, checking what the options did on https://mpv.io/manual/master/ and then setting them if they sounded good.

>>51225059
libass is improved greatly by the last changes, i had a animu sub that was only properly working in windows xy-VSFilter, now finally smooth in linux

>>51226406
There's people "/g/ - technology" who read the online manual instead of opening a terminal and running

man mpv

.

>>51226460
Yep. The cascade gaussian blur algorithm in libass 0.13.0 is pretty great. It improves a ton of subs that used to only work well with xy-VSFilter.

>>51226490
Is that a problem? Proportional fonts are easier to read than monospaced fonts.

I have an album that I downloaded as on whole file. My plan is to break the file up into individual files and add the appropriate metadata so that mpv will display the desired info when playing the files.

Is it possible to keep the album as 1 file and still have the individual song metadata displayed as the album is played?

I experimented attempted to solve this issue a year ago with a different music player, Audacious. I was able to make it work by creating a 'cue' file containing the metadata in a particular format. And instead of opening the music file with Audacious I opened the cue file.

If I open the same cue file with mpv the music plays. But no metadata is displayed. Can mpv mimic the functionality of Audacious (without too much trouble)?

My preferred method of solving this issue would be to use vorbis/ogg for the music and use chapters for the individual song data. I can add the metadata to the ogg container. MPV will display all the metadata EXCEPT the chapter data.

Example, what I enter in FFMPEG:

TITLE=Le meilleur de l'Afreubo
DATE=2000
ARTIST=Afreubo
ALBUM=Le meilleur de l'Afreubo
GENRE=Philharmonique

CHAPTER001=00:00:00.000
CHAPTER001NAME=track 01 - Y.M.C.A.

CHAPTER002=00:00:05.000
CHAPTER002NAME=track 02 - Mission impossible

CHAPTER003=00:00:10.000
CHAPTER003NAME=track 03 - test@10sec

CHAPTER004=00:00:15.000
CHAPTER004NAME=track 04 - test@15sec

All the tags are shown (actually Genre and date aren't set to be displayed atm) except the chapter data. The chapter data is shown when I seek through the chapters as the file is playing.

Can I force the chapter data to display and update as MPV plays the file?

Thanks.

>>51226490
Easier to search/scroll through and more aesthetically pleasing. I have my browser open any time I'm using my PC anyway.

Pulseaudio is better.

Pulsaudio eventually uses ALSA. Pulseaudio is just a layer on top of ALSA, which is actually a very useful and necessary one, don't let retards on /g/ tell you otherwise.

>>51223674

Tips for dealing with horizontal tearing? Shitty laptop and Nvidia card

>>51226986
You can probably drop some decoding features though the rendered image may not look good. I know ffmpeg can do it, so there should be a way to do this too in mpv.

>>51227101
Did you update drivers? Are you sure it's using the nvidia card and not an integrated Intel one?

>>51227101
Have you tried: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/FAQ#tearing ?

>>51227115

Yes and yes

Mind you, it's a rather old card (310m)

>>51227134

Hah, I actually had seen that page but then forgot about it and couldn't find it again. Thanks, will try what it says.

>>51227115
Welp never mind, MPV was using the integrated one. Silly me.

>>51227101
I was having this problem. Adding the following line under

Section "Screen"

to my xorg.conf fixed it for me:

    Option         "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"

I think the "metamodules" part was already there. It was just the "nvidia-auto-select" bit that I added, IIRC.

>>51226986
It's possible. If you're not using hardware decoding, you can trade performance for quality with

--vd-lavc-skiploopfilter=all --vd-lavc-fast

. Also try the fallback VOs,

--vo=xv

for Linux and

--vo=direct3d

for Windows.

What's the point in blend-subtitles? All it does is give me these black after images of subs and it looks shitty.

When I encode a video using mpv is the output video upscaled using the scalers in my config?

>>51227973
mpv can encode videos?

>>51227930
blend-subtitles is useful for a few reasons mainly related to weeb subtitles. Fansubbers like to match subtitle changes to scene transitions so they don't bleed into the next scene, so blend-subtitles can prevent a 'half-frame' of bleed. Fansubbers also like to animate signs with the video, so with interpolation and without blend-subtitles, the subtitles will judder out of sync with the video. Fansubbers also like to block out the jap text under the sign with a rectangle that's the same colour as the background, but they tend to target non-colour managed video players. blend-subtitles burns the subtitles onto the frame before colour-management, so it makes those kind of signs look better when you are using colour management.

>>51227993
Yep. It has a VO that writes the video back out again with FFmpeg. You can use it with --o. It's slightly easier than the FFmpeg command line for some things like burning in subtitles and precise cutting, but due to the design it can't do some other things like stream copy.

>>51227973
Depends. It won't use the ones in --vo, but it will use --sws-scaler.

>>51223955
There is autoload.lua, if you want to make playlists from the same folder...

Does anyone here use MPV in Kali Linux?

As someone with a toaster that only has OpenGL 2.1, does anyone know of a way I can enable the fancy features of opengl-hq? (I doubt it's possible, but I thought I'd ask). What am I missing out on? Upgrading the hardware isn't really an option.

what's a good way to override faggy subtitles with a non-shit font and in yellow (objectively the best subtitle color) but still retain other ass stuff, like the positioning?

Everybody using interpolation: stop until you've checked your display really can't sync to 48Hz/50Hz/72Hz. Syncing to 50Hz is very common, and unless you have absolute pitch perception you won't notice the difference speeding up from 24fps to 25fps with

--speed=1.0427083 --audio-pitch-correction=no

(for DVDs and other NTSC framerate things) or

--speed=1.0416667

(for true 24fps).

Then you can use display-resample, which is far superior to interpolation.

>>51229691
Is there any reason not to use interpolation if you can?

>>51229718
It's more blurry than using integer multiple refresh rate + display-resample.

>>51229489
Try pressing u after configuring your sub settings

>>51225059
>Debanding is now built-in and used by default in opengl-hq.
And it has ugly noise by default. Fixable with

deband-grain=0

.

>>51229718
yes, if your monitor can do a refresh rate that is a multiple of the video frame rate

interpolation is a means of making rate differences more tolerable, it's not ideal compared to using matching rates

i for one have some custom modelines covering most video rates

>>51229751
what?
u isn't even bound to anything

>>51229691
i thought display-sync was a replacement for fpsadjust.lua, not interpolation. you're going to get more judder on panning shots with interpolation off.

>>51229760
also note that my monitor normally only advertises "60Hz" at 1920x1080, despite being capable of those i listed

>stop until you've checked your display really can't sync to 48Hz/50Hz/72Hz
How do you check this?

When I go into my monitor's settings, there's a tab called "INFORMATION" which lists my refresh rate as 60Hz, but it doesn't say what other rates (if any) it's capable of.

>>51229776
display-sync gives you perfect 1:n source:output frame ratio. Set your refresh rate to an integer multiple (or close enough) of the video frame rate and you get zero judder (judder meaning uneven frame timing. It doesn't compensate for 24fps being shit, but then again neither does interpolation).

>>51229829
Just try them with cvt to generate modelines for xrandr (switch to 60Hz first so you have something in your shell input history you can go back to if the monitor doesn't sync). Lots of monitors can sync to rates they don't have in their EDID.

>>51229849
>>Just try them with cvt to generate modelines for xrandr (switch to 60Hz first so you have something in your shell input history you can go back to if the monitor doesn't sync).

mpv

does mpv support hardware decoding on nvidia in windows?

>>51237159
Yes, it supports hardware decoding for anything that supports DXVA

>>51237183
what's the difference between vaapi and vaapi-copy?

>>51237321
vaapi-copy copies back the decoded video in the system memory. It basically defeats the main reason of using hw decoding, but it makes possible to use video filters with it.

>>51237429
so then dxva-copy defeates the purpose as well? I don't see a regular dxva option

>>51237576
Basically. I mean, it's always hw decoding, but if you want it supposedly you want to save system's resources, and readback isn't really much better in doing it than using plain software decoding.
Then again in this time and age hw decoding is basically useless.

IIRC "regular" DXVA is still absent because of a problem with gl-direct3d interop or something like that.

>>51236719
But it's not. Thanks to MSYS2, it's no harder to compile mpv in Windows than it is in Linux. There is no need for cross-compilation and only thing you have to compile is mpv itself.

>>51236446

ERROR: Multiple of 60Hz refresh rate required for reduced blanking.

Well that's useless.

>>51236719
Dumb frogposter.

>>51237576
>>51237669
dxva-copy is still faster than software decoding on pretty much everything. It sounds like it would be a big deal to copy the decoded image out of the GPU and back in, but in practice it still takes load off the CPU and it's almost as fast as real DXVA in LAV/MPC-HC.

I haven't tried vaapi-copy yet, but the performance should be similar.

>>51237758
try the modes i made >>51229760

i didn't use cvt for those, as cvt generates huge blanking periods, which push the pixel clock over my monitors' maximum (165MHz, notice the 72/1.001Hz mode is already right on the edge at 164.16MHz)

>>51226705
Besides breaking audio output in certain programs (notably Wine), I have no idea what PulseAudio even does.

>>51240281
it's an audio mixer/router

it runs on top of alsa (and others, but typically alsa on linux) and provides additional functionality, like;
- mixing, alsa alone can only play/record from one program at a time
- per-sink/source volume control
- resampling and channel up/down mixing
- plugins
- network transparency (can connect to pulse through a network to play sounds from one machine to another)
- ability to move connections between sinks/sources, for example, you could have a video playing, and you can 'move' its audio between different outputs without interrupting playback (such as for example, moving from an internal soundcard to an hdmi-connected television)

>>51229792
It can be an egl backend issue. try with backend=x11. consider opening a bug report in github

>>51240411
>- mixing, alsa alone can only play/record from one program at a time
That's already wrong. I only have ALSA installed but I just checked and I can get audio output from multiple programs all at once (though I have no idea why anyone would even want that functionality).

>>51240450
you're probably using dmix, a basic mixer for alsa

>>51240516
I never installed it, so unless it comes stock on Arch I'm not.

>>51240533
maybe alsa has an integrated mixer nowadays

is it possible to get svp(mpc hc) on mpv? tried it with vapour synth and i can't play some anime and when i do manage to play some it's worse than turning it off.

>>51240450
>(though I have no idea why anyone would even want that functionality).
the problem isn't so much about playing multiple things, but about programs locking the sound card

that is, you open firefox, then open mpv
oops, mpv can't get the soundcard, because firefox already has opened it, even if it's not playing anything

mpv is supposed to work on Wayland. I have no idea how good it is because it didn't work for me when I tried it. It doesn't support CSDs, so I think that means you won't get window borders in Weston and Gnome.

What is vapoursynth? Is it worth figuring out how to use it? Or is it just an autistic placebo?

>>51242200
It's like AviSynth but with Python scripting, so it's essentially a way to specify video filters with Python. The filters aren't normally designed to work in realtime, so you need a powerful computer to use it, and it's often not worth it. mpv has debanding and NNEDI3 built in.

>>51242244
>It's like AviSynth but with Python scripting, so it's essentially a way to specify video filters with Python.
What do you mean by filters? Scalers like lanczos? If so, can't you just specify them in your mpv.conf? Or does "filters" include other things too?

I would use MPV if it had seekbar thumbnail previews.

>>51243507
Depends. Read the manual and see what options suit your needs.

>>51243512
Bomi has them. But it's pretty much dead.

>>51243492
"sans-serif" is a common font alias referring to the system's default sans-serif font. You're probably thinking of "MS Sans Serif," an ancient Helvetica clone that nobody wants or needs any more.

>>51243512
Thumbnail previews provide no value. YouTube has them because it takes time to seek, so you need to make sure you're clicking in the right place, but with local video, you can just scrub to the point you want. You don't need a preview because seeking is instantaneous.

>>51243553
Oh, I thought the MS font was simply called "sans-serif".

If that's the case, maybe >>51242910 's problem is that he doesn't have a default sans-serif font set? I can't think of anything else since he clearly does have sans-serif fonts installed (mpv itself even falls back on one).

>>51243573
Who are you to decide what has value or not for anon?

>>51243625
I just don't see how it provides value to anyone. You don't need to preview your seek if seeks are instantaneous. You can just seek there. I mean, if someone can explain to me why seekbar thumbnails provide any value, I'm willing to listen.

>>51243649

Seekbar thumbnails give you pinpoint accuracy and you don't lose your current place. Its convenient local or youtube. The guessing game of scrubbing isn't very intuitive.

>>51243742
But why would you want to keep your current place if your intention is to seek? You're either seeking or you're not, unless you use the seekbar to peek at what's ahead, which is a weird use case and not at all related to seeking.

>The guessing game of scrubbing isn't very intuitive.
But that's the thing. It's not a guessing game if it's instantaneous. You just drag your mouse until the picture on the screen is the place you want to be at. If you went to the wrong place, keep the button down and drag around a bit more until you are at the right place. The only difference between using a thumbnail seekbar and seeking normally is that the mouse button is down instead of up and the "preview" takes up the whole screen.

>Did they change back interpolation to smoothmotion?
No.

The mpv's nnedi3 is fucking slow compared to madvr one. Recently madshi added some amazing sharpening algorithms that really enhance picture quality not like ewa_lanczos or adaptive sharpen.

The only good thing on mpv is display-sync but it's fucking slow.

Since mpv becomes more and more user friendly I think it needs better sharpening algorithms and they should be integrated just like deband.

It's possible. Most filters are being expunged from mpv because they are included in libavfilter, but in some cases they need to be explicitly enabled when building ffmpeg.

let's see;
- remove judder by blending frames together, causing one of various deformities
- remove judder by simply using a suitable refresh rate, allowing every frame to remain unmolested

there's good reasons to use vapoursynth, but removing judder when using a proper refresh rate is possible is just silly
only use it if your monitor simply can't be switched to a better refresh rate (it's better than nothing, but it's not ideal)

Which it never is even with a fast SSD and fast CPU. The thumbnails could be rendered (and optionally cached) as motion JPEG and then it really would be instantaneous.

sharpen complex also from MPV wiki:

I use 6T.glsl as post-shaders. Sharpen complex looks very similar. Adaptive sharpen pass 2 fails to compile with Debian stable and Free-software AMD drivers (r600_shader_from_tgsi - GPR limit exceeded - shader requires 128 registers).

And way to get this working with Free drivers, and is it worth the effort?

That's what

vo=opengl-hq

is supposed to be, but it's missing a lot of stuff.

Why don't you post it?

Can I force hide cursor? It's visible even on fullscreen playback (using Xorg).

Anyone here using an NVidia optimus laptop on Windows?

I can't get the preferred GPU to stay on the NVidia card, it keeps reverting to integrated graphics even after pressing Apply on NVidia control panel.

What does smoothmotion actually do? Is it like those gimmicky TVs that turn 24fps into fake 48fps?

MPV switched to interpolation. It doesn't improve the framerate but does remove judder which has been a long time problem without matching the framerate exactly with the refresh rate.

>Is it like those gimmicky TVs that turn 24fps into fake 48fps?

If you want that, use Vapoursynth for MPV, or MVtools/SVP for MPC-HC on windows.

Thanks for the clarification.

No, it blend frames to kill the jitter due to the difference between e.g. 24 fps sources and 60Hz monitors.
