I am on Windows because video games and some shits.
I know mpv have better scalers and hardware acceleration.
However interpolation doesn't work at all even with tscale-clamp.
I tried the haasn's config too without success.
When using backend=dxinterop my computer crashes and reboot.
What should I do?
I'm pretty dumb but I tried one of those presets long ago. This one:vo=opengl-hq:interpolation:scale=ewa_lanczossharp:cscale=ewa_lanczossoft
video-sync=display-resample
Video is a little bit... smoother on it? Is it because of the video-sync setting specifically?
>>54311373
It's interpolation aka smoothmotion (madvr) aka fluidmotion (mpdn).
But interpolation needs video-sync=display-* to be active.
>>54311399
Ah I see. Many thanks.
>>54311373
try withtscale=catmull_rom
Nnedi3 with SuperRes is truly AWESOME.
Purists will find this a little bit artificial but they are retarded.
>>54311435
what about superxbr?
how do I get the best configuration for mpv?
>>54311459
I don't like it even with madVR's anti-ringing and/or anti-bloating.

When? It would be very nice but please keep it simple, not like MPDN.
>>54311482
Just use the high preset, copy/paste in the mpv.conf file.
>>54311435
post config
>>54311426
mitchell looks smoothest for me but some people dislike it because it looks more blurry
>>54311482
Download mpv from this:
https://bitbucket.org/rorgoroth/mpv-for-windows/downloads
Don't download latest archives because they don't include mpv.conf file.
Now change the vo part with the high or highest preset.
Don't forget these presets need good GPU (graphic card).
So if it's slow or if you have noisy fans, use a lower preset.
You can check GPU load with GPU-Z. Keep it under 85%.

thank you
Could anyone translate this picture?
It seems very interesting.
>>54311768
lower SSIM index - closer to the source
There are plenty of commits in the mpv repository.
But very few in the lavfilter/mpc-hc ones.
So does it mean that mpc-hc/madvr is deprecated?
Doom9 is becoming a cemetery.
>>54311856
Now in English! ^^'
>>54311938
bilateral is the best, bicubic_150 - worst.
>>54311968
For SSIMDownscaling?
>>54312003
No, chroma upscaling. Read what ssim is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_similarity
And they have tested old bilateral, the new one (CrossBilateral) is much better.
>>54312066
So when cscale=bilateral or cscale=cross_bilateral?
Where is ewa_lanczossharp in the list?
>>54312118
>So when cscale=bilateral or cscale=cross_bilateral?
There are no such options available, only shader, and you can't use it yet with any available mpv build.
>Where is ewa_lanczossharp in the list?
Jinc
>>54312066
What's the opinion of wm4 and haasn?
Madshi said it could produce very weird artefacts but it was for the old Bilateral algo.
>>54312179
OK I found the shader!
https://gist.github.com/igv/a015fc885d5c22e6891820ad89555637
It there a reason why it could not be included in mpv itself?
>>54312191
CrossBilateral also can produce artifacts, but if source image isn't clean (with noise and stuff)
>>54312260
incompatible licenses
>>54312341
Damned licences...
>>54312341
Total noob here, do not kick me.
Why not changing bilateral algo a little and re-license it?

algo2: 1+2=3
Different algo, same result.

Has anyone got comparison screenshots of 1080p videos on a 1080p screen between mpv and mpc-hc?

Thanks, I haven't used any shaders for a while, where should I put them, /shaders does not seem to work
>>54313190
same folder where mpv.conf is.
>>54313156
should be the same if you don't do any scaling, however mpv has a build in debanding shader, good color management, and smoothmotion/interpolation.
>>54313156
mpv on top
>>54313210
There are some complex mpv GUI too.
Unfortunately they are shitty as hell.
>>54312260
Could anyone please post a few comparisons between lancoz and CrossBilateral?
The Qt framework is a commercial shit, please don't use it anymore.

>>54313233
>There are some complex mpv GUI too.
Who needs a GUI to play videos? Literally only point of even using a mouse would be for precise seeking / scrollbars, in which case you can just use a slim bottombar or something.
(Which should really be the default OSC layout, IMO)
>>54313260
Mostly for complex settings...
>>54313260
>Who needs a GUI to play videos?
People like to have play, pause, stop and volume buttons. Also, configuration. People don't like to mess with a config fie.
>>54313258
It's pretty hard for me to see differences...
>>54313281
Example?
All the complicated settings I can think of are done in the settings file. I can't think of what kind of setting you would need to be adjusting at runtime that would also require the use of a mouse to do so.
>>54313298
confirmed for never having used mpv, mpv ships with a gui with ALL of those buttons and more for about a year now....
>>54313298
>play, pause, stop and volume buttons
But you have keys on the keyboard for that. Why would you need a GUI? I really don't get it.
What's easier, hitting the spacebar or moving the mouse to the bottom edge to bring up the GUI and clicking on the small ‘pause’ button?
>>54313316
Same here, I'm pretty sure it's actually doing nothing. And yes I'm using the user_hooks branch
>>54313320
Try picking the correct sound channel, or the correct subtitles from the command line sometime
>>54313334
>synthetic test images
Is there an example of it being used on a real video file? Like, say, a screenshot of Interstellar or Spirited Away or something.
>>54313320
>>54313322
I need something like in the related picture.
And don't forget people who can't read/understand english.
>>54313348
>Try picking the correct sound channel, or the correct subtitles from the command line sometime
j
>Try picking the correct sound channel
Never had to do that becuase I've set alang in my config.
>>54313322
Your reading comprehension sucks, man. I've never named mpv.
>>54313340
With a gui you don't have to remember what key does what. It's simpler.
>>54313348
>Try picking the correct sound channel
Well there is a button for this (# to cycle the audio track), but I've literally never used it.
Normally, if I'm playing something like an anime, which audio track I want to be hearing is constant througout the entire show - so why would I need to be adjusting it at runtime? Just play it asmpv --aid=2 [Coalgirls]_Stupid_Waste_of_Space_[1080p,BD].
>>54313378
>I need something like in the related picture.
But why? Are you adjusting these settings _at runtime_? During playback? Otherwise, what's the point?
Script chain configuration is done in the settings file, because why would you need to be constantly changing it? I don't get it
>>54313378
Why not use the config file? To me this is like dragging a scrollbar with your mouse instead of using your scrollwheel.
You windows user really have baby duck syndrome.

So bicubic is better than bilateral!?

How could you even see a difference?
>>54313547
is that samsara?
Anyways, I do see a difference now, however to me the red seems overly sharp compared to the rest fo the image.
Why is there a D3DCompiler_*.DLL file in these windows builds?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpv-player-windows/files/
>>54313624
>is that samsara?
yes
>the red seems overly sharp compared to the rest fo the image.
it is how it should be
>>54313663
Could you please post another example so I can judge a bit better?
>it is how it should be
Do I find it too sharp because I've always seen "blurry" upscaled reds or what?
Also how do you define "should".
>>54313658
for angle
>>54313547
>No difference
Also should've added Jinc IMO
>>54313689
Do I find it too sharp because I've always seen "blurry" upscaled reds or what?
Yes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_subsampling
4:2:0 (chroma resolution is halved) is a standard. CrossBilateral makes it look like 4:4:4
>>54313663
>it is how it should be
It literally looks banded / aliased to shit. This is what happens when you use these overcompensating "shit" filters.
Bilateral in particular is literally KNOWN to produce bad posterization artifacts.
Anything I can add to the config file to avoid frame dropping? Doesn't matter if I lose some quality, it's just that my ancient laptop sometimes can't handle decent rips.
>>54313784
>posting outdated info
retard please... this is new type of Bilateral - CrossBilateral.
All these "meme" filters are for anime or retro gaming.
>all those retards with their config when MPC + SVP just works
>4:2:0 (chroma resolution is halved) is a standard.
Isn't there some reason this is standers, CrossBikateral doesn't seem to add a lot of overhead so I can't image the reason being performance related?
Like, it's so sharp gradients are gone and it almost looks like banding
>>54313834
It's literally the same thing, cross bilateral just uses a different image to evaluate sameness.
Go read the fucking literature for a change. You people are worse than clueless audiophiles.
>>54313871
retard please...
>>54313861
>all these retards with MPC/xyxs/lav/reclock/svp/bbq when mpv just works

When is hwdec=auto enabled? With high preset every video I tried used sw decoding.
Why no video-sync in OP?
>>54313868
>Isn't there some reason this is standers
How about you read a fucking wiki
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_subsampling
>Like, it's so sharp gradients are gone and it almost looks like banding
Didn't notice any banding with it.
>>54313946
Not mine comparison.
>>54312260
Can anyone post a screenshot comparison?
>>54313955
How does MPC not just work?
>>54313233
Make a fucking PGKBUILD already, or find a way to automate the build process without having to run a GUI tool ffs.
>>54313983
>Didn't notice any banding with it.
Please don't tell me you somehow _can't_ see this banding in the bilateral version (right).
>>54314077
seems ok to me
>>54314121
are you using a high gamut display?
>>54314121
I bet you think this looks better, too
>>54314198
You shouldn't bully legally blind people.
>>54314198
and what does blur/noise have to do with banding?
>>54314232
Well, right is the output of a bilateral filter (which has the effect of posterizing gradients and thus also eliminating grain).
>>54314256
you lost your bet
>>54314077
this is totally acceptable, not an argument at all
>>54313955
not even him but you are literally retarded.
Why ANGLE over DXINTEROP?
>>54314073
It builds with qmake for me.
>>54314617
OpenGL drivers on Windows tend to be fucking terrible
>>54314679
So should I use ANGLE or DXINTEROP?
What is the less experimental?
>>54314717
Whatever works better for you
>>54314737
Is it normal that I have sometimes dead screen with DXINTEROP?
And I have dropped frames with ANGLE.
Default backend works but I noticed some weird playback.
>>54314717
ANGLE is sometimes faster, especially on Intel
>>54314617
dxinterop is higher quality for now, but it explodes on some drivers (see >>54311360.) ANGLE doesn't support 16-bit FBOs yet, but when it does, it will have feature parity with dxinterop, and it will probably be preferable because it will give the same benefits to frame timing without relying on weird buggy OpenGL extensions.
>>54314784
What about AMD?
>>54314717
dxinterop if it works for you. It's basically not experimental at this point, it just uses an extension which is poorly supported by older graphics drivers. If dxinterop doesn't work, use the default backend, unless it has noticeably bad frame timing, in which case you should use ANGLE as a last resort.
>>54314763
If dxinterop dies when you resize the window, it doesn't work for you. Try updating your GPU drivers or operating system. If it dies for other reasons, pls post logs.
>>54313888
good arguement
>>54314876
Ok thank you very much...
I will retry with windows 8.1, the 10 release has too many weird bugs.
I have a legacy AMD GPU, is this the latest driver?

QUALITY AMD DRIVERS
Does backend=dxinterop work for nvidia
How do I toggle the osc with a single button between the two values always and never. I know that you cancycle osc-visibilitybut that isn't what I am looking for as it also goes through the auto value; I simply just want always and never.
I want to bind it to the MOUSE_BTN2, so there are two ways of going about this; either click to toggle or hold down to hide and release to display.
I've triedMOUSE_BTN2 cycle-values script_message osc-visibility "always" "never"with and withoutscript_messagebut they both don't work.
I've also tried creating a lua for holding and releasing but it also doesn't work (because I suck). If someone could help debug the following that would be much appreciated:function osc_display_handler()
if "MOUSE_BTN2" == "down" then
script_message osc-visibility always
else if "MOUSE_BTN2" == "up" then
script_message osc-visibility never
end
end
mp.add_key_binding("MOUSE_BTN2", "toggle_osc", osc_display_handler, complex=true)
>>54316615
>Win32, using WGL for rendering and Direct3D 9Ex for presentation. Works on Nvidia and AMD. Newer Intel chips with the latest drivers may also work.
>>54316746
cycle-values only works for properties. osc-visibility is not a property, it's a script command
