> WHY should I switch from my ??? to mpv?
No one is asking you to. Just try it and see for yourself what suits you best.
> What is the best config?
There is no "best" config. Config is a personal thing that varies between users and hardware setups. Just don't forget to use opengl-hq instead of opengl if you can (or something better). You can always ask here about things you don't understand/not sure.

Last build was like 1 year ago lol.
>>55173230
2+ month. Noone actually confirmed that, but my guess is that devs waiting for ANGLE to get more tested/stable.
>>55173248
What do they even gain by upgrading to one of the latest builds?
To be honest, I've had no problems with MPV only with angle, V-Sync-Replay not disabling if a 60fps video is playing.
But mostly is pretty "stable" for me at least.
Anyway, does SuperRes sharpens the image? because it definitely feels like it.
>>55173248
Angle is maybe 3 times slower than native directx.
>>55173328
>does SuperRes sharpens the image?
sure thing, because upscaling blurs image.
you can control sharpness with "oversharp" parameter, negative values will blur image.
>>55173328
>What do they even gain by upgrading to one of the latest builds?
Better performance and new features.
>>55173354
maybe it is, but you are definitely retarded
>>55173381
Microsoft will make directx cross-platform soon.
The purpose is to destroy all these opengl/vulkan faggots.
However it seems it's much harder than they thought. ^^"
SuperRes is compatible with pan-and-scan now, but only when there is horizontal letterboxes, not vertical.
>>55173413
>Microsoft will make directx cross-platform soon.

>>55173424
Does it work without upscaling now?
When a lua/bash script to auto-update external shaders?
>>55173480
it can't work without upscaling, the purpose of it is to work with upscaling, and only.
>>55173534
So I have to use some kind of prescaler to force it?

Devs don't see a point in rewriting everything for the sake of no clear benefit.
Trying out vulkan might be an interesting thing to do some time in the future, when it's more stable, but as it stands the majority of mpv would have to be more or less rewritten from scratch in a way that's 5x as verbose.
mpv isn't a video game engine, it doesn't have nearly as much to gain from vulkan as a video game engine does..
>>55174951

>>55175468
>Installing 4 different programs when you can install 1 program
You're a retard.
Using :tscale=oversample: for interpolation produces a lot of mistimed and delayed frames, and the original :tscale=mitchell: looks blurry.
Is it normal to have such a bad performance while using oversample? I have an i5-6600 CPU and a GTX 760 GPU.
Process Explorer reports only 15% CPU usage and 35% GPU usage.
wtf happened?
mpv just closes when i minimize it

If you only use opengl-hq and interpolation, probably.
If you want fancy upscaling, croma upscaling, etc. probably not.
>>55176981
I asked this because it doesn't work without a lot of VO (in stats.lua) on windows.

If your bandwidth is not capped and you have a spare USB key, then you can just download the Ubuntu iso, and use a Windows program called Rufus to put Ubuntu on the USB key.
I believe everything should just work out of the box, but the most important thing is that you can simply install mpv while still using the usb key and see how it works for you.

Those are default bindings, you don't need to add them to config.
>>55177918
I could just drag and drop. If MPV is in your path, as in if you can open it from the command line, then you can go to the folder where you have the m2ts file, and shift-right-click and open command prompt. Then simply:
>mpv xxx
Where xxx are the first letters of the file you want to open, and press tab and enter
>>55178122

Is there a preferred 'highest tier' setup for mpv?

Wish there was a better GUI for the playlist
also, is there anyway to add exclusive settings to an extension let's say, .m3u
>>55175399
>All of the devs working on mpv's renderer use linux
No, there are also a few windows-using devs and at least one or two on OSX. Also, wm4 uses all three operating systems (not as main OS ofc but he tests and fixes stuff for all three).
>>55175572
>Is it normal to have such a bad performance while using oversample?
Oversample should be faster than the other tscale possibilities. Is your build old?
>>55175639
>on windows yeah
>try linux, performance is much better there
That's not true.
>>55175692
>serious question why would you not want a GUI
serious question why do you need one?
There is one for basic playback operations like seeking, other than that you don't need one for watching movies or do you watch GUIs?
I give you that it can help for settings but the amount of mpv settings is enormous, they change often and a text based config (like mpv is using) does have advantages. Granted, its big disadvantage is e.g. being not exactly newcomer-friendly. For experienced people it's way faster than using a GUI for settings though.
There was once a guy attempting to create a GUI for mpv settings which would produce a config file but he gave up.
>>55176895
>Will my intel hd3000 or my amd radeon hd 7400m work with interpolation if I install a linux distro?
>>55177218
>I want to feel the magic of interpolation and display-resample.
I kinda doubt it'll work... interpolation makes it necessary to render at the Hz of your display, that is usually 60fps and then some calculations on top. Does opengl-hq work with 60fps videos? Then it might work, no guarantees though. I'm pretty sure it will strongly depend on the resolution of the video, some smaller resolutions might work.

Hey /mpv/
I finally got my 4K freesync monitor to work at custom refresh rates (had to fuck around with the CRU, but it works), so now I can enjoy judder free movies by setting to 48Hz.
However, the autospeedwin.lua script does not seem to work automatically. I set it up to automatically adjust to 48, 50, or 60 Hz, depending on the source file.
However, it simply refuses to do so, staying at 60 Hz all the time. Anyone have a similar problem?
>>55185820
Did you download and install nircmd?
>>55186484
Yes. Put it into the mpv directory as well as into system32
I can directly manipulate the refresh rate via console by putttingnircmdc.exe setdisplay monitor:1 3840 2160 32 48
But it does not seem to do it automatically
>>55186496
Did you put your autospeed config in mpv.conf file like this?
vo=opengl-hq
script-opts=autospeed-nircmd=true,autospeed-speed=true,autospeed-nircmdc="nircmdc",autospeed-dwidth=1920,autospeed-dheight=1080,autospeed-bdepth=32,autospeed-rates="60,72",autospeed-exitrate=60,autospeed-minspeed=0.9,autospeed-maxspeed=1.1,autospeed-osd=true,autospeed-osdtime=10,autospeed-osdkey=y,autospeed-estfps=true,autospeed-spause=4
>>55186533
Yes, except for different dwidth, dheight and rates of course
>>55186542
I don't know what's wrong on your system...
Recheck your mpv.conf file, maybe duplicated script-opts option?
Have you got any errors when launching mpv from cli?
Maybe a permission problem?
mpv.com "your-video-file.mkv"
>>55186542
Where did you install mpv?
Where did you put your .lua file? In scripts folder, right?
Check if "autowinspeed.lua" file is not "autowinspeed.lua.txt".
>>55173219
>no gui
>>55186596
No duplicates.
No errors when launching from cli (except one about contrast in the icc profile being too high), but no permission problems
>>55186636
mpv is installed to C:\Windows\Program Files\mpv
Lua file is in %APPDATA%\mpv\scripts\ and is not a txt file, I never turn off file extensions.
Other files in the scripts folder are recognised (namely autoload.lua and stats.lua), so my config syntax is also correct.
It just does not run nircmdc.exe apparently, but I don't understand why
>>55186691
Did you try to put mpv somewhere else like on your desktop?
- c:\users\yourname\desktop\mpv
- c:\users\yourname\desktop\mpv\mpv.exe
- c:\users\yourname\desktop\mpv\nircmdc.exe

Both Windows and OS X are plagued by performance issues when using video-sync and/or fullscreen mode, usually in combination.
Linux is the only OS on which it works smoothly. Try it yourself if you don't believe me. People *in these threads* have already confirmed on more than one occasion that their interpolation performance issues go away when testing on linux

Even when stripping the config to ONLY the script-opts= line, it does not work.
Something seems to be fundamentally broken on my install, for the time being I wrote batch files to set the refresh rate.

>so whats his main OS
You know it and it doesn't matter. There are enough devs on different systems, some also working on the renderer and wm4 himself is not using/testing/programming for Linux exclusively. Your assertion is simply invalid, don't try to reword your sentences now.
>>55184941
>I don't even bother explaining people why we need a GUI anymore, you end up with retards like this who think a GUI is bad >>55184259 (You)
Well, after your answer above I already know you have a quite severe lack in communication skills and reading comprehension but I did not expect you to make it even more obvious with literally every line of text you write. I grant you the benefit of the doubt and assume you don't do it on purpose, you were maybe just born like that, so here a summary worded for the most special of our children:
- I never said a GUI is bad
- I questioned the necessity of a GUI for playback capabilities
- I illustrated that mpv has sort of a GUI for playback capabilities
- I mentioned that the absence of a GUI for settings is a disadvantage for users not being familiar with the player (and it's options) very well
- I mentioned that a text based configuration is an advantage for experienced users
Btw do you, the guy apparently explaining for so long, realize that there are front-ends for mpv available, e.g. mpc-qt? Why are you not using them but instead insist on a GUI directly offered by mpv?
And in all this time, did you not notice how some guy once created a GUI for setting options but overall it was not really popular, people stopped using it fast and the guy stopped developing it? Doesn't sound like huge demand to me.
>>55186794
>>working on mpv's renderer
So commits like https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/0fd5a24ecb9a0b1d716224b2eafa487b3e2574d5 are not "working on the renderer"? kkkk

These are mostly frame timing and not performance issues. OSX suddenly went shit regarding display sync with OSX 10.11, it still works fine on previous versions and afaik they found a working solution for 10.12.
As for windows, OpenGL behaves really shitty regarding timing here and that's where the problems come from. Solutions depend on the used hardware and drivers.
With universal angle adoption in 18 it might become better.
"Performance" is not the issue here.

How can I stop MPV from remembering playback on youtube-dl videos/streams?

Yes, I know.
I know you can use the CMD to disable itmpv url --no-resume-playback

>>55189376
>>55189408
>>55189422
“Screenshot comparisons” are pretty worthless, especially the ones made by amateurs who don't really know what they're doing.
>>55189500
How is it worthless if you take the same frame, from same source, and compare it with the monitor you have
>>55189507
Well, first of all, most people screw up the “take the screenshot” part. But ignoring that, all you're doing is measuring differences in the settings.
Both mpv and madVR are known for their large number of options (mpv even more so than madVR). You can make both display the exact same pixels if you really want them to.
Trying to compare the difference between mpv and madVR using two screenshots with different settings is like trying to compare the difference between German and English using two books by different authors. It's just pointless.
Either you put in the amount of effort to make their settings identical before you take the screenshot, and you will get an identical result. Or, you just take a screenshot of whatever the default settings are and get no information other than “what do the default settings look like”.
>>55187960

No, it doesn't support it yet. I thought about adding support to it a year ago or so but last time I checked the metadata for it was insane.

>>55190150
that's not a 3D video, it's clearly meant to be wrapped around a cylinder (360 degree view)
a 3D/stereoscopic video needs two views, one for each eye
pic related, a common SBS (side-by-side) 3D video
mpv detected it as being 3D, and played it back in 2D, which is the default, i had to disable 3D handling to show the video as-is
>>55190150
>This is how 3D youtube videos play. So I'm guessing it doesn't support it.
As >>55190458 said, mpv does handle and support properly tagged 3D stuff. However your picture looks like it's supposed to be viewed with some VR headset, not with a 3D display.
>>55190458
>>55190666
Yeah I figured right after posting when I checked youtube support, what I posted was a 360 video, 3d ones are separate thing like you said.
Still would be cool to be able to control the view it with a mouse, like youtube lets you.
>>55190769
>Still would be cool to be able to control the view it with a mouse, like youtube lets you.
Yeah definitely. Would love that.
>>55183789
there needs to be a way to move videos in the playlist
>>55190150
>>55190458
mpv supports stereoscopic 3D (i.e. two images side-by-side)
mpv does NOT support “360° 3D” (i.e. an image wrapped around a cylinder)
>>55191123
There is a way to move videos in the playlist
>>55190958
>>55190769
seems like a fair amount of work for such a niche feature
that said, maybe the transformation could be done in a shader (?), controlling it will need special support, though
>>55189671
>Firefox is just so god dam ugly
you can make firefox look however you want it to look
>>55191202
nope. i checked the manual and there's no keybind for it.
>>55191237
Please do show the way
>>55191227
According to >>55189770
We are supposed to have this feature, since chrome playing online videos is not one of the main features of chrome and we should be using youtube-dl for those 3D/360 view videos.
>>55191306
Stylish + userstyles.org, classic theme restorer, userchrome.css.
>>55190150
that takes me back
>>55191338
Would you mind, sharing a good style with me?
>>55185820
it doesn't work here as well
>>55191282
If you had checked the manual then you would have known that you can add your own keybinds
>>55191227
Yeah a user shader could do it
So people have been using mpv as an image viewer, is anybody using it as an audio player? Any cool scripts for that particular usage?
>>55191864
Nope, I use mpd
>>55191864
There's something on the Arch wiki I think.
>>55191864
Don't have it on my computer, so no.
I set interpolation threashold to 10, and everything runs so damn smooth. Why is 0.01 recomended?
>>55191864
>mpv as an image viewer
retardation
Just use foobar for audio
>>55192081
Make a compration
>>55191726
Actually you have to make your own lua script to do it, because according to clifags that's easier than making a bind in MPC-HC.
>>55192133
windows users please go
>>55192081
interpolation-threshold=10 is basically turning off interpolation
>>55192178
looks like someone finally made a playlist manager a few days ago.
https://github.com/donmaiq/Mpv-Playlistmanager
>>55192178
https://mpv.io/manual/master/#command-interface-playlist-clear
yawn
>>55192248
>playlist-clear
That's to clear a playlist, not move videos.
Playlist-move is useless without making a lua script.
>>55192319
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? You said it was impossible to control the playlist without a lua script, I showed you evidence to the contrary
>>55192331
Can you follow the reply chain?
Not that there's any point now because someone already wrote a script for it, as it's impossible to do any useful playlist management just binding keys with input.conf.
>>55192384
Following the reply chain brings me to this:
>there needs to be a way to move videos in the playlist
Which “playlist-move” is
And then this
>Actually you have to make your own lua script to do it
Which is just blatantly false as pointed out
So again, are you trying to accomplish something more specific than “move videos in a playlist”? Because if that is all you want to do, playlist-move is enough.
>>55192411
With playlist-move in input.conf you can only bind it to specific index values which is useless unless you want to make a 100 binds for every index value in your playlist. Which is why you need to make a lua script.
>>55192503
Well, you still haven't told me what you're trying to accomplish
>>55191864
I use foobar for music. I like to listen to some internet radios though so I have a script https://github.com/donmaiq/Mpv-Radio
I used to listen to streams on foobar but I like to be able to save the name of the song and go through the list once it's big enough.
My penis is chaffed from over masturbation. What can mpv do for me?
>>55192245
>Please notice that this script needs you to have F9 show-text "${playlist}" 5000 in your input config

Oh that's how you do it. I tried doing it with osd message only which didn't work.
>>55189700
>>>55189678
>I mean I don't know, last time I did a comparison between youtube video quality, on mpv/chrome/firefox, Firefox kinda sucked.
I don't understand. I said that if you use Firefox, there is an add on for playing videos with mpv at the click of a button and you counter this by saying that videos suck worse when played inside Firefox?
I don't think I follow your logic
MPC-HC the best/ MPV ugly shit.
>>55192637
Does mpv replace foobar? mpv doesn't seem to have many options for music and playlists, but dang it loads video fast as hell.
Also, how to bring up the command line on Windows?
>>55192740
thanks for the script. mpv is perfect for me now.
>>55192968
>Also, how to bring up the command line on Windows?
To be more clear, I'm trying to make one video go on repeat once it finishes, there's no loop button at all.
>>55192968
Make a shortcut to Poweshell.
>>55192993
Oh, I'm stupid. I was trying to edit the .exe itself. Thanks.
When I set my display to 48Hz and play a 23.976fps video, why do I still see a distinct difference between using interpolation and not doing so?
I thought mpv speeds up the file to get 24fps? So that interpolation wouldn't do a thing?

I'm trying to watch videos on the bbc news website but I have problems seeking, the video doesn't start at the beginning and I can't seek there to watch it. I get a lot of errors in the terminal like[ffmpeg/video] h264: non-existing SPS 0 referenced in buffering perio
[ffmpeg] NULL: non-existing SPS 0 referenced in buffering period
[ffmpeg] http: No trailing CRLF found in HTTP header.

[ffmpeg/demuxer] hls,applehttp: Invalid timestamps stream=1, pts=901800, dts=903600, size=82
If I download the video it plays in mpv fine. Is this a bug with mpv?
Any way to make the shortcut commands work when opening a media file itself? It seems I have to open the shortcut first, then drag files over to the mpv window for any of the commands I added in the shortcut. Trying to have the file open from the shortcut doesn't work either, it opens directly into the .exe, skipping the shortcut altogether along with the commands I wanted.
>>55193028
I know what interpolation does. I also realise that @24fps content should not look different with or without interpolation at a 48Hz refresh rate
>>55193477
You should use the install.bat and set file associations.
>>55193477
Not sure what you want to do.
You probably want this - create shortcut to mpv.exe, add necessary commands there and then open media files with this shortcut. (drag them onto it or place the shortcut into your SendTo folder and use Send To from the right click menu)
>>55193571
And if you want those commands to always work for every file then you should put those commands into configuration files.
https://mpv.io/manual/master/#files-on-windows
>>55193511
Maybe you should read the article instead of dismissing it.
>>55193622
I am sorry if I appear stupid but I just did. I reread it to see if there was something new, but I don't think it pertains to my situation, as my refresh rate is an integer multiple of the video files I am playing.
How can I play youtube videos and others using mpv by default instead of opening it in the browser?
>>55187197
Why? What options are you changing so frequently that you need an entire menu just to change them? I've done my mpv config once a long time ago and don't plan on changing it anytime soon. And that's just because I wanted my screenshots to be in png and have a specific name style, most normal people shouldn't even need to change anything so what's the point, what options do you need to change so much so often?
>>55193661
That's like saying that upscaling options don't apply to you because your resolution is an integer multiple of the source
>>55193512
>You should use the install.bat and set file associations.
Did both, also tried to set it manually (.gif), but the file still opens straight to the .exe. I want it to open through the shortcut so that it loops forever, but when I open the file individually, it closes once it runs the animation. It only works if I open the mpv shortcut first, then drag the gif to the window, then it loops forever correctly.
It wouldn't be an issue if there was a shortcut key to loop when it starts playing, but there's no such thing in the manual. Only setting the loop points A and B, but I want it to loop completely without setting the loop points.

Don't use mozplugger. Just open the URL with mpv
>>55193984
But I want automation
>>55193938
Ok, I get it, I don't understand interpolation as well as I thought.
The wiki is pretty unclear though, from what I read while googling right now, an integer multiple of the framerate should lead to no more judder, thus giving a smoother experience.
Please explain or link me some more thorough source, as I really want to learn more.
>>55194006
just make a userscript that triggers on youtube video urls, have it open up the location bur prepend some protocol scheme like mpv:// then have the script close the tab. I did that a while ago for some things and it worked fine, you just open a video tab with middle mouse or whatever and the tab closes itself and mpv shows up.
You have to register the mpv protocol however within your OS and browser.
You can also make a button that triggers it on click too, I used to do that for Giantbomb videos.
>>55194110
Because I'm autistic I later cleaned it up too.
>>55194006
Do you need mpv to wipe your arse for you after shitposting, too?

Trying that right now. Here's what I have in User > AppData > Roaming > mpv > mpv.config:
# Repeat track
--loop=inf
That's all I should need right? Basically I just want to click a gif and have it repeat forever, instead of closing.
Dragging the gif over to the shortcut works, as well as opening the shortcut first and then dragging the gif over, but I want to skip these steps and just open the gif and immediately have it repeat forever. Windows media player had the option to right-click while the gif was playing and then select loop. There was also a button to loop right where the playback controls were like seek and fast forward. Looping is pretty important imo, I wish it was there by default. It doesn't even have a shortcut key, but you can set loop points A and B, which seems like a more complicated function, so it doesn't make sense why they wouldn't add a standard 'repeat' button by default.
>>55194305[extension.gif]
loop-file=inf
>>55194305
>It doesn't even have a shortcut key, but you can set loop points A and B, which seems like a more complicated function, so it doesn't make sense why they wouldn't add a standard 'repeat' button by default.
You mean like ‘L’?
>>55194541
'L' Creates Loop point A, then you press it again for loop point 'B', then it repeats only that area you told it to. I don't want that. I want to press 'Repeat' once and have the gif repeat forever after it reaches the end.
>>55194387
Pic-related. Notice when I open the gif directly, it closes once it finishes playing. Then I drag it to the shortcut and it repeats forever. I want it to repeat forever just by opening the gif by itself.
>>55194110
Ill look into this
Thanks
>>55194751
It's supposed to be mpv.conf
Read the manual.
>>55194751
lowercase l is A-B loop, capital L loops the playlist which if it's only one file will loop that file forever.
>>55194751
> 'L' Creates Loop point A, then you press it again for loop point 'B', then it repeats only that area you told it to. I don't want that. I want to press 'Repeat' once and have the gif repeat forever after it reaches the end.
'L' as Shift+L
You can make it just L by addingl cycle-values loop "inf" "no"
L ab-loop
into your input.conf
>>55194781
I feel stupid now. I was just looking at the manual but somehow I invented my own file name.
>>55194541
I'm extra stupid. I've been pressing lower case 'l' instead of uppercase 'L'.
Both the L and the config file work now. Thanks for helping a retard, senpais.
>>55194836
>>55194845
Yeah, I'm dumb. Thanks though.
>>55194751
i think your suppose to useloop-file=yes
>>55194923
There's optional values, so like if you want it to repeat twice or maybe 5 times and then quit. There's 1/no, <any other number>, inf <infinite>
I'm using mpv with livestreamer on different sites like twitch, youtube and for some reason it takes longer to open the video stream than usual. Is there some cache that needs to be cleared or something? This is on linux.
>>55194126
>integrated with the site's layout
i personally just have an item in the right-click menu, but it'd be pretty nice if there was a script to do this on many of youtube-dl's supported sites

Family you are an asshole.
Slowpoke here, I didn't know they dropped NNEDI.
The video output part of the conf is nowvo=opengl-hq:scale=ewa_lanczossharp:cscale=ewa_lanczossoft
Anything I should add?
I tried using NNEDI on user shaders, but it was slow even with a GTX 970. That is, unless I did something wrong.
>>55194110
Aw shit nigga. I'd love for you to share this, alt tabbing to closest terminal and typing mpv ctrl+shift+v is a little taxing.
>>55199340

>>55199290
>I'm an asshole for helping
You're rude, I explained exactly what I do to open them.let dest = targetURL.concat('/',videoID,'/',urlArgs);
let win = window.open("mpv://".concat(dest));
win.close();
That's all the "open in mpv" anchors do, the destination is obviously specific to that site and not useful to anyone else but here it is anyway.function openVideoMPV()
{
let targetURL = "http://www.giantbomb.com/api/protected_video"
let re = /\/(\d+\-\d+)\//;
let videoID = document.location.href.match(re)[1];
let apiKey = GM_getValue("GBAPIKey", "Not Set");
if (apiKey === "Not Set")
{
APIKeySet();
apiKey = GM_getValue("GBAPIKey", "Not Set");
}
let urlArgs = "?download=1&api_key=".concat(apiKey)
let dest = targetURL.concat('/',videoID,'/',urlArgs);
let win = window.open("mpv://".concat(dest));
win.close();
}
It's terrible because I wrote it in a few minutes just to get the functionality and I don't actually know Javascript.
>>55199351
There's nothing more to it than what I said before.
All you have to do is register mpv as a handler for "mpv://" (or whatever you want to use) and prepend any media url with it.
For example if you wanted to watch "http://example.com/video.mp4" you just go to "mpv://http://example.com/video.mp4" and open that with a handler, how you do that is OS specific but should be the same for every program/protocol on that OS. Does that help?

I'm sorry, I have to leave town tomorrow and I just found out my roomate broke the dryer and didn't think to tell me about it when I said "I'm gonna use the washer" so I'm in a bad mood. My cloths are wet so I have to get up even earlier to iron them in the morning.
Then I come back to someone calling me an asshole for trying to help. Forgive my aggressiveness.
>>55199924
Sorry
>>55199973
It's not your fault, I appreciate the apology though.
Would any of you be interested, in explaining me how this x2 refresh rate for smoother playback works?
I keep seeing you people say if you play a 24fps film at 48-45hz, it would somehow look smoother?
Something like that
So is x265 better than x264 or neither?
Even after reading about it I still don't quiet understand.
>>55200981
the idea is that you want each frame to be shown for a consistent amount of time
60 doesn't divide into 24, but 48 and 72 do
Does mpv support DVD/Blu-ray playback yet?
>>55201590
it always has, you realize mpv wasn't made from scratch, right?
