I have a folder that has songs in it

plays files by song name, not metadata. This means songs are not played from first to last. However, metadata is included in the files, meaning that a proper music player plays them from first to last as ought to.

How do I make it work with mpv?

Why is this better than VLC?

I usually like VLC over MPC except I cant go back frame by frame, and sometimes I get these green/red color block artifacts for many seconds after seeking to a new spot in the video with VLC.

So now I just use vlc when mpc wont play it.

Mpc shows double icons of ffdshow on the bottom right..not sure why. Like two ffdshow video icons in my taskbar.

I think some flv videos take forever to seek forward not sure if this is avoidable without re-encoding...

I'm primarily a Windows user and I actually prefer OSS portable solutions since I do use other operating systems while out of town and I don't want to have to configure 2 or more pieces of software if I can just have one that works the same way everywhere. I couldn't care less about the F part just the OSS and portable part, mpc is also open but it hasn't been ported to other systems to my knowledge so even if I spend time configuring it the way I want, I lose that when I move to another OS. I'll take familiarity and uniformaty over other things so long as it's still a practical alternative, mpv is only missing one feature that I used in mpc that could very well be implemented sometime by someone, maybe even me so there's no negative side to switching for me personally.

Maybe. But vanilla MPC-HC isn't what I'd call bloated either

>Most features.

Kinda retracts your first point. Also they can be added to MPC-HC by codecs if it doesn't already have it natively

>Most customization.

Same as MPC-HC I think, only difference is you do it editing text-files instead of an GUI

>Cleanest interface.

Because it has none, right?

>Best quality.

Again same quality as MPC, I think madvr still delivers better quality than what you can do with madvr but I could be wrong. They're pretty much equal quality-wise

Doesn't make the software itself or what it's supposed to do "better".

My point still stands, it's FOSS but that doesn't automatically make it superior

It has OSD, which is far cleaner than the disgusting Windows 95-tier interface of VLC/MPC.

Madshit is outdated. MPV is on the bleeding edge of video scaling.

>>51829461
It's better at having retarded keybinds
It's better at not showing you chapter names
It's better at giving you not just one, but two OSDs that get in the way of watching your video

It's infinitely better at needing a 24/7 help thread just to be able to run it.

Lightweight and feature-full are not mutually exclusive, it's a matter of implementation. I could write a program and implement a feature so poorly that it becomes huge, depends on many libraries, and is slow as shit or implement the same feature more cleanly without all those issues.

"bloat" typically means full of features you're not going to use at a big cost, I feel like most features mpv has are necessary and well implemented so there's no actual downside to having them. Some could maybe argue otherwise.

I wish these threads wouldn't start this way. Now it's full of meme arguments and angry madVR users instead of actual mpv discussion.

Anyway, if there are any actual mpv users here, you use Windows, you have had problems with judder, dropped frames or bad output with display-sync and interpolation, and you don't have Intel graphics, you should try out the --vo=opengl:backend=dxinterop option in the new builds.

I switched from MPC-HC to mpv recently.
mpv has the OSC, which is as much as you'd need.
MPC-HC's UI looks like something from the 90s, it's fucking ugly.

Also it kind of sucks that you need to read a manual to configure mpv but once you get it you can just drag the entire installation to a new device and it just werks.
With MPC-HC I had to rummage through menus.

>>51837870
Well, MeGUI is just a frontend for those things, so the only reason you'd use it is if you couldn't just use the command line directly, and command line software isn't that hard to learn. Also, with GUI frontends like that, you'd have to wait for the option to be added to the GUI to be able to use any new features, and the amount of batch processing you'd be able to do would be limited by whatever anemic GUI it had for it, if any.

you'd have to wait for the option to be added to the GUI to be able to use any new features

MeGUI allows you to specify a custom command line.
There's no reason not to use MeGUI. CLI leaves you open to forgetting settings because a blank entering the default doesn't remind you there's a setting there, and the error reporting is laughable.

I don't know about you, but I have absolutely no sympathy for people who don't keep up with the latest video playback software. You see this shit all the time on public trackers, people demanding 800MB SD Xvid rips for their hardware DVD players, people demanding [email protected], 8-bit H.264 muxed in .mp4 for their PS3s and Smart TVs, people railing against Matroska like its some conspiracy to force them to buy decent hardware. It's not that hard to build a decent media center than can handle all this crap.

Anyway, why are we talking encoding in the mpv thread? mpv fags don't watch videos, they spend all their time between trying to configure their shit player and shilling it.
>>
>>51838095
It's literally a single config file that I drop between boxes, rather than having to play around in a gui/find where that gui stores its settings.

You can copy the config from the top of the thread, and be good if you want.

Keep up with the times, senpai. ffmpeg's AAC is good now. Also, anyone half-decent should be using ffmpeg's libfdk-aac support, which is just as good as Nero and qaac.

>>51838095
If they're anything like me, mpv fags also spend all their time making sure their encoding software is up to date, even though they never encode anything.

it's not the same and you know it, you can't make the best possible format and pretend people to use it when there's no infrastructure and x264 8bit is no xvid shit. the difference in 8bit and 10bit is placebo level faggotry so yeah, people who give them (encoders) shit are right.

Get out. Just... Get out. If you can't set a .exe as a default program for opening .wmv .mp4 etcetera, you don't belong here.

You are either retarded, 12, or both. You did not Google "how to set a .exe as a default program" before asking us. Seeing as to how little you know about computers I'll even hazard a guess that you have never even installed Linux of ANY sort.

In conclusion, you are a 12 year old retard who wants to have a "super sweet" media player so he can make fun of those who aren't using it.

Kill yourself faggot.

>>51838125
Yes, this sounds like a script though.

local curr_time_into = mp.get_property("time-pos","")


Will get you time, and percent.

You just gotta look up how to bind that to a key, and save to lcipboard.

If you accidentally bought an underpowered device that relies on hardware decoding and therefore cannot be updated to handle the latest and greatest video formats, you're not going to have a good time. Even my fucking 9 year old Core 2 Duo can decode 1080p 10-bit H.264. If your media center is less capable at playing media than my 9 year old PC, you're doing something wrong.

Is the nnedi3 config more performant on Windows? Im on an r9 390 using the open source xf86-video-ati and the nnedi3 config results in framedrops while the high config is handled easily. Not really a fan of using mpv on Windows but might give it a go if the drivers make a lot of difference.

Ok, here you go.

os.execute("printf " .. contents .. " | xclip")

local curr_time_into = mp.get_property("time-pos","")

copy_to_x_clipboard(curr_time_into)
end
-- Set ` to whatever...
mp.add_key_binding("`", "copy_curr_time_to_clipboard", copy_curr_time_to_clipboard)



It only copies to X clipboard though, and it outputs time in seconds, might want to add formatting....

I can't manage to get 1080p playback working, even on lower settings I'm getting an assload of frame drops. I'm not on ancient hardware, even CPU decoding ought to work fine, I'm on an i5-520M (Arrandale) with Ironlake Intel HD Graphics. I'm still getting tearing, too, but that could be because I'm too dumb to disable compiz on Ubuntu.

Here's what I'm getting when I try to play a file:
[vo/opengl-hq] Could not create EGL context!
[vo/opengl-hq] Disabling linear/sigmoid scaling (GLSL version too old).
AO: [pulse] 48000Hz 5.1(side) 6ch float

AV: 00:00:35 / 00:44:39 (1%) A-V: 0.000 Dropped: 108

and here's my config

>>
>>51838604

It works fine with vo-opengl and no arguments. No frame drops or tearing. Shit. I figured it was defaulting to vo-opengl before I changed anything, apparently not since I was getting worse quality and performance originally.

This still happens after switching to Japanese audio with some of my anime, though it works despite flooding the terminal.

Yeah, I've found ffmpeg's aac decoder can be noisy on the command line, even though there are no actual audio problems.
