Mpndn (however it is spelt) is better than MadVR and is open sores anyway
>>51591654
>freetards think they are entitled to source code
btw madshi is mad because the mpv dev got picked up by plex and is now making 6 figures
>>51591669
No mpdn is closed source but has open source extensions...
>>51591695
Well, he states he isnt, though.
To be honest, I'm with madshi on this one. He's been at it for 10 years, and he's made tremendous contributions.
Based madshi hates open sores.
>>51591699
Plus, mpdn gets ripped regularly on doom9 by more seasoned devs.
>>51591707
His bitterness says otherwise
Based Hasan is with mpv and continually innovates unlike madshi
I am a little bit sad about it, they sincerely should work together.
Anyway netflix, youtube, hollywood and itunes will kill them sooner than you think.

Delicious tears.
mpv is superior in every way vs. MPC-HC + madVR, and there's a lot of users who realize it now. He's mad and jelly about that you can tell, regardless of what he says.

Argh it happened... madshi is getting mad... my computer is on fire...
Hope madshi will kick the mpv's developers asses with awesome algorithms.
Can't wait form the next releases.
Mmm... dsplayer is not maintained anymore... That's shit.
>>51591766

He's a professional programmer who "commercialised" other software.
He never intended to sell madvr ((he says so at least)

Windows fag here.
The only GUI it really needs is a playlist view, and you can get that with some scripts.
for Windows:
>Vsync without having to force it though nvidia control panel
>include autoload-playlist script by default
>include minimal playlist GUI
I only want the playlist GUI because I'll be binging a show and I'll have forgotten exactly which episode I'm on.
Otherwise MPV is pretty great, the only configuration GUI it should use is perhaps one bundled with the installer.
>>51591778
I always read these claims about mpv, there are threads about mpv config files etc, yet no one has yet made a reasonable argument as to why exactly mpv is supposed to be so much better.
This is an honest question.
>>51591787
>editing config manually
You do that with MPC-HC + madVR too, the difference is that with mpv the very standard practice of putting configuration options in a plaintext file is far superior, easier, cleaner, and easier to maintain for a user.
Configuring MPC-HC and related crap is basically a nightmare, everything is non standard mismatched crap that has to be done in it's own unique way.
someone please open up an issue on the mpv GitHub that madshi claims they have stolen his algorithms. Include the OP link, where he stated it
>>51591852

>>51591787
It does have a UI.
It even has a graphical user interface.
>>51591852
>Configuring MPC-HC and related crap is basically a nightmare
Hm, I've never had a problem with it, but I guess I really have to look into mpv now.
>>51591862
>as opposed to typing man mpv and looking through garbage linshit tl;dr
It's not my fault your an idiot.
That's an extremely standard way to configure a program. manpage or --help output, and options in a plaintext file.

Don't do this. Add dwmflush=windowed to your vo= line instead. VSync will be fixed in the next release.

But some people don't want it. I know I don't.
>>51591983

no thanks
>>51591914
Actually, they don't.
The torrent groups don't give a shit about file sizes, so they just go -crf 16 and roll with it.
Streaming providers like Netflix can't do that, obviously, so they really have to meticulously encode their vids to make them transparent nonetheless.
You should look up some presentations on yt by the head of the encoding division at Neflix. (forgot his name)

>>51592087
The problem is that madshi won't prove it (because he is wrong) and is making an excuse for not proving his statement
>>51592087
mpv devs are out to improve the state of media players in general. Anyone can look at mpv's algorithms and implement them in their own media players. The devs can openly explain how they work and openly disclose their capabilities, including strengths and weaknesses compared to other implementations.
madshi is just out to get his ego stroked. He's not even smart enough to monetize his renderer. His behaviour is bizarre and user-hostile.
>>51592178
sounds like hippie trash to me
Does mpv support mkv cropping yet?
>>51592178
>He's not even smart enough to monetize his renderer
You make it sound like monetization is the ultimate goal. AFAIK, mpv hasn't been "monetized" either.
>>51592216
Ha, oh wait, no, wm4 has been bought by Plex, I forgot :)
Is mpv supposed to work with wayland and gnome 3.18? I only get a 2 inch window on the top left that is unmoveable and can't get maximised.
>>51592083
You were complaining about lack of quality but then you're complaining about filesizes too large?-crf 8-20 -preset veryslow
Is all a bluray movie needs. What are these other people doing that's so much better other than hitting it with unnecessary filters?
>>51592216
I guess what I'm saying is that madshi has no reason to keep his secret sauce secret other than his ego. I was also taking a jab at madshi because wm4 got hired because of mpv and (as far as I know) madshi has gotten shit all money-wise for madVR.
>>51592207
If you mean cropping video inside an mkv container, It always has.
>>51592241
I wasn't complaining about lack quality, that was the guy I replied to! :)

It's supposed to but wayland support is no where near stable/reliable.

Good one. They are trying hard and are doing a good job but their encodes sometimes suffer from blocking and banding.
>>51592279
Shit, xv doesn't work here and I really don't want to go back to slow ass x11 window management. Guess i have to endure totem for a while.
>>51592260
What option do I need to use? It doesn't do it by default, and the man-page says nothing.
I compiled the new mpv from git and enabled the
display sinc = resample
or how it was.
anyway videos look smoother but if i debug with check-pattern 1=1 it says I have tons of dropped frames.
is it because display sinc breaks the check-pattern1=1 or is my gpu too weak?
Should I even care if it looks better to me?
thanks
>>51591847
Mpv is better for the power-user mainly thanks to its super detailed configuration options and scripting capabilities.
>>51592289
I have never experienced any of the artefacts you mentioned. Are you sure that wasn't a bandwidth issue?
Because the people at Netflix scan each encode frame by frame and don't allow a single bad frame.

You can tryvo=wayland
Maybe you have to manually specifyvo=opengl:backend=wayland
Or maybe you just have to wait a year or so and hope it gets better.
>>51592200
You'll come around when the free version of madVR gets abandoned for a paid version and you have to start looking for an alternative. Open source benefits everyone. Now that mpv supports GPU-accelerated Jinc scaling, everyone can use it. If mpv ever dies, someone else can make the next media player using mpv as a base rather than starting from scratch. madVR benefits madshi and madshi alone. madVR dies at madshi's whim, after that, you're back to square one.
>>51592321--vf=crop=1440:1080
If you have a 1920x1080 video that's actually 4:3 video with hardcoded black bars in the side, this would crop it properly.

>>51592386
Thanks, that makes it usable at last.
>>51592387
I think you're missing the point. What if madshi just loses interest? It's happened before with single-developer freeware. madVR's bus factor is 1. After that, all his improvements to video rendering are gone because they have been kept secret. The next Direct3D/DirectShow-based video renderer will have to be written from scratch. His only reason for keeping them secret is his ego, and that's disgusting.
On the other hand, if all mpv's developers happen to simultaneously lose interest, mpv's improvements to the state of video rendering will not be gone. As open source developers and non-egomaniac non-faggots, the mpv devs have shared their discoveries about video rendering.

His reason is not to let freetards steal his code which is okay in my book.
>>51592499
Ok f.am, but like I said, you'll come around when madVR dies. He doesn't let anyone "steal" his code, so it will die when he loses interest.
Personally, I don't like relying on software like that.

I dunno man, if he did that the freetards will steal it. He pretty much said in those posts that he only cares about himself. I don't see how releasing his source code will benefit him.

Heh, is he MAD that his plans for commercializing madvr flopped? He invented smoothmotion I would give him that but he implemented upscaling techniques from Imagemagick and incorporated open source shaders giving little credit himself.
Christ, what a cunt.
>>51591883
Why is he an idiot? Because he doesn't want to waste time going through 20+ pages of arguments and their explanations and instructions just to make the player behave sanely, when other players have GUIs thsy can make the job 10x easier snd faster? Get the fuck off of your high horse holy shit
>>51593205
> Because he doesn't want to waste time going through 20+ pages of arguments and their explanations and instructions just to make
Instead they watch 30 min video guides made by 13 year old boys on youtube to learn how the configure the options on the GUI.
>>51592677
There is no single best shader. Experiment with various options. Sigmoidized upscaling works well for anime.
I prefer regular ewa_lanczos +antiringing + lumasharp post shader to ewa_lanczossharp.
If you have weak GPU then mitchell cscale is virtually indistinguishable from lanczos for big GPU power saving.
>>51593205
> Because he doesn't want to waste time going through 20+ pages of arguments and their explanations and instructions
The primary reason I called him an idiot was because he didn't understand how to use manpages, comments like this indicate you don't know how to use manpages.
>just to make the player behave sanely
mpv has very sane defaults and works well with no configuration at all.
> when other players have GUIs thsy can make the job 10x easier snd faster?
To me configuring MPC-HC and related stuff is 10x harder and slower.

Madshi did all the work. The retard "wm4" stole most of it and presented it in open source code to make it look ok.

I think quite a few animu watchers will start to tinker with their video player sooner or later and obsess about details, which is fine by me, because video processing can be quite interesting.

GUIs are not documentation lad. Deceive yourself all you want. mpv has several GUIs, not that you would read about them because reading is for fagets
>>51593723
Vanilla MPC-HC is pretty bad.
They could use CCCP and get that experience, but default CCCP is not going to give you high quality rendering.
If "plebs use inferior things because of conscience" is your argument, then that's fine.

Uh, what? Those techniques were developed long time ago by various mathematicians.

No the great Madshi invented them. How dare you question his capabilities and genius intellect.
Every time I see a thread like this I laugh at the anime faggots that watch so much media on their computer (rather than on their large television in the living room) that they have actual opinions on PC media players. Time to move out of your Mom's basement, fatkids.

I honestly would like to know it too.
Upscaling filters - he invented the big amount of zero of them. They're all academic products, and most of them were first and foremost implemented in avisynth plugins or imagemagick. He may be the first to have implemented jinc-filters in a real time player, but that's all, I don't think it's enough to be acknowledge in every other video player from now on.
NNEDI and super-xbr - Same as before. And the author of the ported shaders are acknowledged in the source.
Smoothmotion - this is the only thig I can reasonably think of. Yet the interpolation we have now is quite different from MadVR's (now the default tscale is mitchell, even), and when it was first implemented as smoothmotion it did mentioned MadVR (https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/c29ab5a46b2676d013e4294ee719d83f6bc469b6)

And if I have to add, contrarily to what he says, the only one from mpv that ever came "spreading the word" of this player was haasn, and to back up his words he always presented what madshi is failing to: facts.
He says he's not bitter, but his words reek of revisionism, partiality and butthurt.
>>51595161
It's funny because mpv's implementation of smoothmotion is much better and can be configured to use different scaling algorithms for fine-tuning while madVR's implementation is just an obscure checkbox.
Anyway

Why should I disable debanding?
>>51596173
>Why should I disable debanding?
pretty sure it's not built-in
>>51596232
i think the -hq preset has deband on by default now

sorry meant "now*"
yes in opengl-hq
>>51596173
Can be slow, if it isn't just keep it enabled.

>>51596280
Alright, thanks.
>>51596173
It degraded detail, I don't care how minuscule of an amount that might be. Typical banding doesn't bother me.
>>51596520
Are you kidding? Deband barely degrades anything at all and you probably couldn't double blind it. A slight amount of banding is far more noticeable and egregious.
>>51596719
It barely degrades detail, but it still does.
>>51591654
Fuck FREETARDS!
>>51596742
I bet you couldn't double blind it.
>>51596757
Doesn't matter if I can't visibly notice the difference, there still is a difference.
I see it as something that alters the original videom I don't like that.
>>51596913
>Doesn't matter if I can't visibly notice the difference
That's literally the only thing that matters. Enjoy your placebo.
>>51596173
You don't need to disable it, just turn off the disgusting noise:deband-grain=0
And fuck film grain too, that's another movie industry scam like low frame rate.
>>51596955
That's ironic coming from someone arguing for a debanding filter.
>>51597007
Debanding is mostly for anime. It's very obvious there.
I dont understand why madshi wont just open source madvr. Its not like he is selling it or making any money from it being closed source. His bullshit "muh child" ego argument does not make sense.
>>51597374
he states in the thread OP linked:
"I'm not an open-source developer", but gives no reason.

>ironic
You should probably learn what that word means first.
As far as degrading image detail, I highly doubt anyone can actually notice it unless you go out of your way to put retarded settings on it. Your argument so far is basically makes you seem like some kind of videophile.
However, there are situations where debanding is highly useful and desirable, so it makes little sense to ever turn it off unless your CPU is just a piece of shit or something.
>>51597495
>unless you go out of your way to put retarded settings on it
The retarded setting (grain) is on by default.
>>51597583
The noise is there for a reason and should be on.
>>51597495
>I highly doubt anyone can actually notice it
This is the same frame, same settings except one with deband and one without.
This is the one without deband.
>>51597645
This is the one with deband.
They're visibly different, the deband filter effected the way the video looks and not just with banding. Look at her hair on the right for example, it took away a lot of detail there and smoothed it out.
>>51597673
shot0002 looks better.
>it took away a lot of detail
nah.
>>51597636
It looks like shit. I bet you're the kind of person who thinks film grain is "artistic". You can clearly see the noise in >>51597673 , and it only looks worse in motion.
>>51597645
>>51597673
The two frames are almost visually identical and really the main difference is that the grain between the two shots is slightly different maybe. A lot of detail? Nonsense. These images are so close that I don't believe I could reliably double blind them.
>>51597772
>shot0002 looks better.
That's fine if you think that.
>nah.
yah.
>>51597778
>arguing against film grain
Weren't you just complaining about loss of detail a second ago?
>>51597783
>The two frames are almost visually identical
If you can't see what you're supposed to see there, your monitor and/or eyeballs are shit.
>These images are so close that I don't believe I could reliably double blind them.
If you mixed them up I would still be able to tell which was the one with debanding on and which was the one without.
>>51597802
Film grain was originally caused by film producers being cheap. It's now mostly caused by idiots who deliberately add it to their well-lit digital shots. In both cases it is losing detail.
If the grain/noise is already there then sadly it is not possible to remove it without further detail loss. That doesn't mean you should deliberately add more!
>>51597783
Not OP, but I actually think you could double blind them if you Look at the hair, but solely because the debanding makes it look better. :)
>>51597645
>>51597673
Now find a scene with really shitty banding and compare it.
The tiny amount of details loss (if you can even call it that) is a very small price to pay to get rid of banding everywhere else.
>>51597878
It does when you disable the grain (despite also losing detail, but in this case it's so minor that it's a good tradeoff). >>51597645
please post a version with deband-grain=0 so we can see how it can look at its best.
madshi is the based as fuck he can do whatever he wants you can always use an old version if you don't like something. Opensores would turn his project to rubbish.
What should I put on the mpv.conf on a completely shit netbook?
>>51598500

>>51591707
>He's been at it for 10 years, and he's made tremendous contributions.
I don't get what hes mad about. Its closed source. Unless the reverse engineered the binaries and stole source code, then it doesn't really matter.
Anyone who backs madshi in this case should realize they are advocating for software patents. This makes as much as sense as being mad at Samsung for "stealing" Apple's rounded rectangles.
>>51598966
Lastly, after reading the thread, mpv is superior not just for being open sores, but also cross platform. A cross platform application like Kodi should take care in officially supporting solutions that work on more than just Window.
>>51597860
>Film grain was originally caused by film producers being cheap. It's now mostly caused by idiots who deliberately add it to their well-lit digital shots. In both cases it is losing detail.
Incorrect. Noise exists in all photography. regardless of ISO setting, illumination, camera, film (or digital sensor).
> It's now mostly caused by idiots who deliberately add it to their well-lit digital shots. In both cases it is losing detail.
Some filmmakers may intentionally add film grain, but it's not as if there was none immediately after photography.
>If the grain/noise is already there then sadly it is not possible to remove it without further detail loss.
If you consider the noise part of the signal, then yes, but that's generally not the case, and while our methods of removing grain are imperfect, a perfect denoise filter doesn't lower quality.
>That doesn't mean you should deliberately add more!
In the case of debanding, adding noise helps to conceal the residual bands that debanding filters can't remove without adversely affecting portions of the frame that ought not to be debanded.

Suicide when?
His life work is ruined.

Clearly more detail.
>>51599138
A tiny bit. Not enough to disable debanding.

>>51599165
No
The texture on this board is not banding.
>>51599156
It most definitely is if your source is good and doesn't have banding, i.e. what most fansubs should be. It just degrades quality for no reason whatsoever there.
>>51591654
Kek, this faggot is so buttblasted that nobody wants to use his inferior closed source dogshit anymore.
Makes me so happy to see faggots like this get BTFO.

>Recently mpv has started copying a lot of ideas from madVR, including some algorithms I invented myself (things nobody else ever did before), without giving any credit.

So any GUI for mpv? I like the simplicity but it's a bit TOO simple. And no, a config file does not suffice.

Seriously, I don't know what he means with "clear loss of detail".
>>51599476
>>51599521
The image switching script also highlights the image border catching your eye and drawing it away from the other more subtle differences. It’s simply less visible there. Those sites are shit for anything but very obvious differences.

This I really don't understand. The site merely shows the original .png file that hasn't been tempered with at all!
>>51599607
tampered, oops.
>>51599607
It adds a border to the hover image which is counter productive for subtle differences.
The torrent groups don't give a shit about file sizes, so they just go -crf 16 and roll with it.
Yeah shit torrent groups that you're familiar with.
>>51592350
>I have never experienced any of the artefacts you mentioned. Are you sure that wasn't a bandwidth issue?
Because you're blind or watch Netflix on a tiny monitor.

Are there any torrent groups that care about quality? Anime fansubs are the only encodes worth a damn I’ve ever seen.

>>51599698
A few of my favorites are CtrlHD, DON, NiP, D-Z0N3 , Tay-To, etc. One of the few I really like when I download from a source that's very grainy is the group Wiki. They manage to keep a lot of grain while keeping the file size down.

Going back to MPC. He seriously considering trying to do a simulcast startup with no plans other than "I wanna go to Japan to acquire licenses" and "The project brief is 'Crunchyroll with better encoding and subs', I'll figure out the rest after I strike deals with studios and publishers."

I unfortunately don't keep logs but it took a lot of people to convince him it was a stupid idea. I only share one IRC channel with him though and I can't be positive it was the only place it was discussed in depth. Somebody else might have something. This was in ITW's channel for the record.

I'm pretty sure it's just compression artifacts being subtly different as opposed to "clear loss of detail."
>>51592481
This is literaly covered in as an example for premade scripts their repository.
>>51600426
It's slow and most of the useful scripts are now native to mpv.
