I used to use CCCP but when the 10-bit stuff rolled out, I just followed a custom setup guide. After awhile, I got tired of it, so I decided to try out KCP. Got this problem, so I started this tread as a way to find out which pack I should replace it with.

So that other faggot was right and you are actually one of the Loonix Loonies.

And, yes, that's exactly what I'm implying. Building mpv on a Windows box requires a rather elaborate toolchain to be present, with a slew of dependencies depending on what exactly you're building. You don't have it, nor do you even know what you need or how to set it up. You can claim otherwise but you'd be full of shit and I'm going to call you on it if you try.

I used MPC-HC+MadVR when I use to use Windows.
Now that I use Linux exclusively I use mpv with opengl-hq vo.
The difference is not there for the average viewer.
Of course if you compare every single frame you'll notice a difference, but that I doubt either of them could be deemed "better" than the other.
Anyone who says otherwise is likely a troll and should be ignored.

That's because it's designed for Unix systems and uses a build system that is for Unix systems. Most open source software is like this, and is very hard to compile on Windows. But what point are you trying to make in saying that compiling most software on Windows is a pain in the ass?

>You can claim otherwise but you'd be full of shit and I'm going to call you on it if you try.

Do you seriously think that compiling software is something so special and complex that you don't believe someone when they say they compiled a piece of software? I don't know what to think of this retardation.

For you? Yes. See above. You were talking out of your ass with the expectation that no one had the knowledge/desire to call you on it.

Incidentally, you still haven't explained why MPC-HC is "shit" despite being asked multiple times.

>I never said I did this, nor would I ever bother with that.

I actually don't think you bother with anything at all. I think you're a Windows user who's just using pre-built binaries from srsfckn.biz just to be a hipster.
>>
>>116283156
> You're not saying something that's flying over my head, it was a nonsensical bullshit.statement.
Gradients are supposed to be specified through vectors, dithering works by detecting these vectors. Sometimes they are not. Frame analysis can detect what was intended to be a gradient when it is not.

>Type "mpv -vo help" into a terminal.
Yeah you are full of shit.

I could go into a long rant, longer than I care to go into for a post to prove something to 4chan posters in a thread that will soon be dead.

>I think you're a Windows user who's just using pre-built binaries from srsfckn.biz just to be a hipster.

Believe me, I'm not a Windows user. This is not about being a hipster to me, it's about software design, and what''s the better quality software.

It's funny because he's probably just parroting shit he read on /g/, which doesn't know jack shit about anything technology. Saying MPC-HC is shit is the latest trend on that board.

I'm challenging the fact that you have the first fucking clue what you're talking about in regards to mpv or MPC-HC. I'm challenging the fact that you know the first thing about software development or compilation.

Protip: You don't, and it's painfully obvious.

>I could go into a long rant, longer than I care to go into for a post to prove something to 4chan posters in a thread that will soon be dead.

That's fine, I suppose. There wasn't any question left that you were completely full of shit anyway.

>This is not about being a hipster to me, it's about software design, and what''s the better quality software.

>>116282840
SVP tries to generate new frames between existing frames in an attempt to increase the video's framerate. While it might sometimes work with real life footage if you're lucky, it'll never work with anime.

Animation you see in anime isn't trying to be an accurate representation of reality. It would be way too expensive/time consuming to draw a new image for every single frame of the 24fps video, so animators only draw something new every 2/3/4/etc frames. To compensate for this the animators can exaggerate certain motions so that it looks smoother when you watch it. When you try to algorithmically generate new frames between those made by the animators you just get a terrible mess.

MadVR's smooth motion on the other hand is used for a completely different purpose. It's designed to remove motion judder that's caused by a mismatch in the video framerate and the display's refresh rate, for example if your monitor is running at 60Hz and you're watching a 24fps video on it. You can't evenly divide 60 by 24 so some frames have to be shown two times while others are shown three times. This causes juddering which is particularly visible in scenes with large smooth motions such as panning scenes.

Smooth motion solves this by blending two frames when needed. It doesn't try to guess what's between the frames, it's just a weighed blend of the two. Because of this it's content-insensitive so it'll work with anime just as well as it would with real life footage.
>>
>>116284246
Using KCP doesn't stop you from using madVR. You know that, right?
Regardless, there's no point in installing a codec pack when it's so simple and easy to install only what you truly need and configure it correctly.

>I'm not sure what you want

I want you to stop fucking lying, or at least to stop going into full blown damage control mode when you get caught.

Yeah, for two reasons...

Firstly, because you can't. You don't have the first fucking clue what you're doing.

Second, because you don't want anyone to see that your "terminal" is a bash shell running on your Mac. You've been real careful to not actually say you're using Linux. Instead, it's just "I'm not using Windows" or some variant thereof.

You're right to do it, though. We'd probably make fun of you for being a Macfag.

I don't get what you mean by this. You've just been making wild/silly accusations, and I'm not taking them that seriously.

>You've been real careful to not actually say you're using Linux

You're right I have, because I had no reason to bring up Linux and this has nothing to do with Linux. My problem here is that you think it's something so amazing in the first place that it warrants proof. In my perspective, this is like telling someone you installed firefox and use it instead of Internet Explorer, then having someone accuse you of lying because they think you think you're a genius hacker for installing firefox. What does that say about the person who is accusing you of lying, and their level of competency?

CCCP or madVR aren't codecs either. I guess you got something right if you meant that madVR is a DirectShow filter.

If you can't use some specific video renderer then usually the alternative is to use some other video renderer. Funny how you've been unable to even name a single one.

The problem is that this isn't about my level of competency or anyone else's but your own. The fact that you're so desperate that you're trying to attack anyone else's technical proficiency is telling, to say the least.

You're lying your ass off, you got caught, and now you're going to do and say anything you can in order to get away from it.

No one is saying anything about computers being magical, or "genius hackers" or any other such disingenuous bullshit. Quite the opposite. in some respects.

What's being said is regardless of how "easy" or not such matters are, you don't know jack shit about them. It's really that simple.

CCCP is made up of people that know what they're doing. Though despite that they are very slow as they make sure to test everything and only put things together that will work on a large array of machines. No test builds, no beta, no anything. If it's not stable or tested heavily. Forget about it.
I enjoy it but with no MadVR, I'm not getting the potential picture quality that I want.

KCP is made by a few people who have really no knowledge compared to the contributors and members of the CCCP team. Though Haruhichan is wiser than the average fan, maintaining their own XDCC, but their news/blogs/journals/taste in anime is shit, don't bother.

What they do is pretty much throw all the components together. A stable version and a bleeding edge version. Making sure you keep up to date with all of them so you can have the "best quality possible" (of a download and go aspect), with a few more problems here and there.

Despite what Diaz says about KCP. I still use KCP and enjoy it. They're fast, and they're doing my job of updating components for me, so I can be a lazy twat and not have to do it myself or wait for CCCP to do it 2-3 times a year.


Bottomline: Do whatever, I'm a faggot.

It is, there's no third-party bullshit you need, or rather any of it is compiled in to begin with. I recommend using VLC over MPC-HC, although I also recommend deciding things like this for yourself and not asking 4chan what you should use.

Just like MPC-HC and mpv.

>rebuilding your font cache

This only happens on the Windows version. A lot of software that created for Linux/Unix and then ported to Windows as an afterthought has this issue, like the GIMP too. It's both a problem with Windows, and the software developers for not wanting to put the effort in to change their codebase to appease the Windows-specific way of doing things.

Seriously?
Correcting the statement "CCCP or madVR aren't codecs either" implies that:
a) Both are codecs
or
b) CCCP is a codec
or
c) madVR is a codec.

The reply specifically addresses CCCP and asks what it stands for. If this is ANY attempt at correcting, then it implies that the user considers it to be a codec. If the user meant to say that CCCP is a collection of codecs, then said person needs to learn how to say what they mean. And in the end, it is still NOT just a collection of codecs. The name is Codec Pack for the sake of simplicity. It includes more than that.
>>
>>116289324
Not quite, because there's no mpv package in the MSYS2 repo (yet.) You have to grab all the dependencies manually.

Or alternatively one is mainly built around the usage of codecs and the other one is built as a filter with optional native codec capabilities.

When anon ask to what CCCP stands for is to clarify that in fact CCCP does include and for the most part is a codec pack.

>>116290575
Also keep track of what GPU is actually being used. Default Nvidia API makes MPC HC go through IntelHD as oppose to it's own GPU.

AND

If it is using Nvidia GPU, sometimes it doesn't see the need for using full throttle with madvr and subsequently down throttles, causing madvr to not be able to render in time.
>>
>>116290575

NNEDI3 is fairly demanding.

If you are looking for very high quality, and moderate render time I recommend using Lanczos 8 taps on both Chroma and Image. If you still want NNEDI3 I suggest using as many GPU queue as possible.

As far as display mode goes I was referring to resolution and frame rate. Madvr by default will use monitor native display mode. Which means if you are watching 24Hz anime in a 60Hz monitor, Madvr will render at 60Hz.Which means it will be applying post processing at 60 frames per second. So it will working with copies of the same frame individually, wasting resources and dropping a shit ton of frames.

I heard there is some trouble with Gentoo's mpv packaging. The latest versions are "hardmasked," whatever that means. The mpv website lists Gentoo as outdated.

I don't think there's any reason not to just build from source though. mpv development moves really quickly and Git master is normally stable.

Back to >>>/g/ with you.
Libass is the only reason I don't fully support mpv. Certain signs still don't render correctly, and some laughably so (one particular Nisemonogatari sign from a 2012 release is supposed to be drawn over the Japanese text, but both are superimposed on top of each other, and certain Jinsei typesetting doesn't get rendered at all as libass "gracefully fails".)

And yes, I'm using libass 0.12.0, mpv-git (daily update) and ffmpeg-git (weekly update).

The last time I had a libass problem was when Daiz fucked up the typesetting on that one KLK episode. Otherwise, it's perfectly fine outside of a few special cases.

You're kind of missing the point then. This is why you should "fully support" mpv. libass is an excellent project. All other attempts to reimplement VSFilter are dead, but libass is still going strong. The problem is, ASS is a terrible format. It's badly designed all the way down and it's so scarcely documented, I'm not sure why they bothered at all. VSFilter and VSFilter based projects are the only ones to ever implement ASS correctly, which is a terrible track record for a file format. If you want to support ASS, you basically have to fork VSFilter, which you can only do on Windows.

Fansubbers are part of the problem, since the fansubbing cartel are massive winfaggots. It's easy to test your typesetting in libass with Aegisub, but fansubbers are too lazy to do it, hence their subs are buggy on anything that isn't a Windows desktop PC. The only way this problem can be solved is if mpv gets a bigger market share, so typesetters are forced to test with libass.

It's also a good idea for Windows users to switch to mpv because DirectShow is actually deprecated by Microsoft in favour of Media Foundation, and also because all DirectShow does these days is add unnecessary overhead, since pluggable codecs are a thing of the past now that LAV does everything.

is xysubfilter and all that shit really worth downloading? is it that much better than a normal subtitle renderer or whatever?

I use KCP and boosted the sound a bit.
But i noticed the sound tapers off while i am watching and when i pause and unpause or scrub through something the volume increases
Anyone else experiencing that?

>COM Surrogate has stopped working

has anyone else experienced this? did it like 3 times in the middle of mp4 playback, and didnt affect the watching it just kept popping up, only for that video and it never reappeared.

Look how oversaturated and aliased wmp is, absolutely terrible.
The difference between the other two is a lot more negligible but the MPC shot is slightly less sharpened, look at the shine marks on the hair.

And noticeably paler too
Install mpv now

no, even with the autism settings there is no difference (comparing with opengl-hq). The High deband strength actually blurs the image

now add vlc onto there

But he's using pleb kcp instead of doing it himself, the absolute patrician video player way.
