Media players kinda rolls on the same settings.
So in the very end it doesn't make much difference what to use. If you don't go for the lowest tier like windows default players.
Codec packs nowaday are useless. IMHO they always have been useless. But now players have all the necessary codecs built-in and rarely external codecs have some use.

MPV or VLC?

Both MPC and mpv have great playback. mpv has way better navigation (moving around within the video file is vastly snappier) and it's more stable.

LAV Filter Megamix

>>156431480
To use this,

Download, move to Program Files mpv folder

type %appdata% in windows start search

Create folder in appdata called mpv
Create file called config (no extension)

Paste those settings

Right click your video file, Properties, set to open with mpv.exe

Now you have a player better than 90% of /a/

>>156430274

I use the default video player films and TV on windows 10, it's a shame it doesn't have subtitle customization but it's still better than that piece of shit vlc, haven't had a problem with artifacts so far

>As you may have noticed there was not much traction in the MPC-HC project in the recent months. We do apologize if you felt bad about that. Unfortunately, we were not able to provide as much development time as MPC-HC deserves. We believe MPC-HC is a very capable player and we want to keep it rocking for much more years to come. Sadly, currently, we don’t really have the manpower to do so. But this does not mean we want to give up here. We consider this release as a new starting point and hopefully, we will slowly but steadily improve MPC-HC. If you care about MPC-HC’s future, please contact us. Report issues that you want to be worked on and most importantly send patches if you can; even small changes help us move forward.

MPC-HC is dead. mpv won.

False dichotomy. Just get vanilla MPC-HC, works almost as good and doesn't require you to autistically learn the commends. You just cannot beat GUI, not sure why idiots are still stuck with the shitty outdated alternative.

I think /a/'s biggest problem with it is the lack of high quality post-processing scalers, debanding algorithms, and video enhancements that are available with mpv and madVR.

I have a home nas for my media library, but still transfer the files over to my desktop whenever I want to view anything to get the highest quality possible.

I've been using stock mpc-hc for years don't see what the big deal is honestly. Once an anon explained to me that people use KCP because stock mpc doesn't play anime correctly with a lot of stuttering jaggies & screen tearing but nothing like that has ever happened

>>156440601
>plex
It's shit, use UMS with BubbleUPNP.

>>156443041
But as I said before, they're not mutually exclusive.
Why bother transferring if you have a gigabit LAN?
I can't imagine any real world scenario when stable 500 Mbps is not enough. Sometimes I use mpc-hc + MadVR, but these cases are few and far between.
>>156443107
>It's shit
Care to elaborate?
>use UMS with BubbleUPNP
Thanks, I will look into it.

I mostly watch pre-2009 DVD content so pretty much sub 576p.
Which is why I use MPC-HC + Madvr too image doubling/quadruple to my monitors resolutions, any other newer content(Mostly BDs releases) is preferably played at native resolution and when not available I just upscale using Jinc.

madvr is God's gift for 480p content in a 4K monitor.

I'm still using CCCP because it just works. The only thing I changed was setting up MadVR. If I do a clean installation in the future I'll probably just do MPC+MadVR+DVS properly though, but now it's too much of a hassle.

Karma is a real thing. They punish anyone that prefer VLC just because their "easy to use" and "out of the box" thingy with Low quality, and Processing power intensive video player, and rewards anyone that spend a little bit of time to tinkering the settings on MPC-HC and MPV with with good quality and almost non-existent processing power requirement

I only do it once though, so not really.
I meant reading through the documentation to set the player settings just right instead of choosing proper settings in GUI. When you use it you really don't need anything apart from play/pause, forward/backward jumps of varying length and volume control (Japanese gets chosen over dub automatically). All of those are available in any good player.
Mpv approach to it is just objectively worse. Literally only used because autists want to feel like leet hackers.

What do you even want to be changed? Most defaults are sane. There's little reason to touch mpv.conf besides autism, and even then there are templates.

The way mpv is designed and configured is actually VERY STANDARD AND NON-UNIQUE.

There is a million other programs that are configured by reading a manpage, and putting options into a plaintext file.

If you have ever actually used a Linux system, mpv runs and is configured just like many other programs on your system, it is actually incredibly uniform/common/standard for Linux programs.

To anyone who understands the basics of computer usage, configuring mpv is an easy stress-free task that can even be fun.

To someone who has only used Windows, they are overwhelmingly confused by it, and Windows makes it quite difficult to do simple tasks (e.g. why isn't mpv in my PARH? Why doesn't mpv have file associations set up automatically?), which makes it even harder for them to learn. Please don't mistake your own lack of technical capability to mean that the program is designed poorly, the developers and original target audience prefer it designed that way.

I download anime to my external hard drive, which is connected to my house's router. I then pop into bed, turn the desert cooler on and stream the anime to my G4.

Twiddling with parameters certainly is faster than going to the options menu, selecting the preferences, going to the appropriate tab, changing a value, closing the preferences dialog and repeating it again.

Using a config file also makes it easier to provide a dearth of configuration options where you don't have to figure out where to put them in the preferences dialog. These are my subtitle options:

Just because something is standard for Linux does not mean that it should also be part of the Windows version of the program. I get that setting up MPV is probably quite simple, but most people don't want to go though multiple pages of documentation or forum posts just to set up a media player to their liking.

That being said, it pissed me off right of the bat that you can't adjust the volume with your mouse wheel and there is apparently no easy way of implementing that feature yourself.

What do you expect them to do? You have zero knowledge. If I told you "mpv does not depend on a graphical toolkit", would you understand what that means?

Be glad that the program even compiles on Windows at all.

>That being said, it pissed me off right of the bat that you can't adjust the volume with your mouse wheel and there is apparently no easy way of implementing that feature yourself.

You can do this by adding this to your input.conf

MOUSE_BTN3 add ao-volume -5
MOUSE_BTN4 add ao-volume 5

Read the section of the manpage regarding --input options.

>>156447574

To regular Linux users, this is STANDARD. The way mpv is designed, configured, and runs is just like hundreds of other programs on Linux.

We know how to read a manpage and put options in a plaintext file. It's not difficult to us, and it is actually a PREFERRED way to configure a program. Do you understand what an extensive graphical interface for mpv's options would look like? They would also have to add support and dependency on a graphical toolkit.

What makes you think it takes more than a few seconds to find something in a manfile?

>I mean it is less efficient.
Because you're a stupid Windows user that has a horrible OS that makes everything very difficult, and you don't even have a basic understanding of how files/directories work.

If I told you, a regular Windows user, to edit a text file at a certain location on your filesystem, you would probably spend 10 minutes trying to figure out where the file was or should be, and how to open it in a text editor.

Configuring mpv to an experienced Linux user, the original target audience of mpv, is not difficult or inneficient.

It's certainly not inefficient compared to sorting through literally 100s of options in a graphical interface, while it writes it into an XML file that's 1000s of lines long or some nightmare shit.

It's a small plaintext file of command-line options you want to set by default, that's all it is. It can be easily kept through upgrades of mpv, or easily moved to another computer.

>>156433896
Because SMPlayer is deprecated and most of the mplayer devs moved over to mpv. It's not a better being the best but being the only choice. Which I find hilarious really. I have more choices for media playback on Windows than any Linux OS.

>>156448174

There's literally nothing to improve about MPC-HC, it's become the perfect playback tool. Besides security fixes and random patches to run on weird ass hardware what else does MPC-HC really need? mpv doesn't even have half the features MPC-HC does.

Also, read the git master reference page not the manpage: https://mpv.io/manual/master/

>>156448107
>screenshot-template="vlcsnap
Why

>>156448235
In the same way that you can navigate menus in a top-down fashion, you can navigate manfiles by section. If it's a truly large manfile it is likely to be broken up into sub-manfiles, which will be specified withing the main manfile. If not, you can search ^\w to match against any line that starts with a character to find sections.

>>156448235
If you couldn't find it in the manpage, trust me, you wouldn't find it in a graphical version of the manpage, which is what your dumbass is suggesting they create.

Yes, they should create a dependency on a graphical toolkit like Qt or GTK, and develop a graphical interface containing 1000+ options with tooltips that show an explanation when you hover over them, this is what you're suggesting.

For anyone that knows anything, they wouldn't tell you that would be easier than using a manpage and putting options into a plaintext file.

Maybe if you have too many options.
Best option is always something like firefox: most often used options in a simple graphic interface which you can set up in two minutes so that everything works perfectly for 99% of the users, while 1% of users have to find out what options to change in about:config (which is essentially the same thing as having a separate txt config file).

There only realistic options are GTK or Qt, these are called graphical toolkits.

They would have to add support for these into the codebase, which be quite the ugly mess, and the developers are ideologically opposed to it.

Why would they do it anyway? It would literally be harder to use than standard manpage + textfile configuration.

>>156448558
Not since 8.1 and not as a primary system since XP.

But considering MPC is designed to take after the old Windows Media Player, this is what's to be expected. VLC's preferences dialog works the same way. Or in fact, that's how you set preferences in pretty much all GUI applications I know (browsers open a new tab now, the rest is the same).

>>156448739
It's because the source is 24 fps and your monitor is running at 60, which is not divisible by 24 This mean the frames that get shown are like this:
1 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 5 5 5 ...
Having some frames on screen longer than others -> jitter.

If it's a good monitor, you might be able to change it to 72 fps. Do that. Unlikely though.

In mpv you can add a line just containing "interpolation" to your config. It instead will show you frames:
1 1 (1+2)/2 2 2 (2+3)/2 3 3 ...
Which is about the best you can do without actual (sophisticated and expensive) motion interpolotion, like SVP.

>>156448912
I think he meant the close it and then do again. "Now" you can change multiple settings at once. You don't have to use apply either.

The funny thing is that it /is/ faster anyway. Obviously you'd have a keyboard shortcut to raise a terminal emulator, and the sequence of keys: "<shortcut>mpv --help" can be typed in less than half a second if you've ever used a keyboard in your life.

>>156449001

It's profile=opengl-hq though.

MPC-hc is jut run exe and watch movies. Still faster and easier and offers same experience.

I guess I should be surprised by your technical incompetency, by then I remember I'm on /a/

>>156449764
I'm not sure what you're referring to, but my current setup consists of an automated rtorrent setup that pulls new episodes for the shows that I watch from AB RSS feed, and servers them directly to Plex.

>>156449863
Let's see your setup big boy :^)

>>156440382
Not even joking for iOS it's pretty good and doesn't seem to have the problems the desktop version seems to have.

>>156449946

i use kodi and added nyaa to its searchable tracker. i just click on an episode and it automatically streams it from the torrent so i dont have to download a hard file

https://kodi.tv/

sorry if it doesnt make sense, im digusting esl

>>156431480
Why no madvr?

>>156449913
Does vo=opengl-hq just not work anymore then? Because so far as I know it seems like it still works just fine with that instead of using profile=opengl-hq

>>156450153
No.

Biggest issue with mpv is no option to stay on top only while playing.

>>156450153
It's "deprecated", so you SHOULD stop using it because it COULD stop being supported at any time and WILL NOT be supported at some point in the future.

>>156450292
That's mostly a WM issue.

Quicktime Player

>>156450109
Ah, I understand now what you're asking about - your english is perfectly fine, it's just Kodi that I'm unfamiliar with.
To answer your question, this might be possible using one of the many official/unofficial channels, but I haven't looked into it, as I prefer to download and save my chinese cartoons locally.

>>156450292
Literally just press shift-T.
>>156450333
Alright, makes sense.

>>156450153
I can't be bothered checking exact behaviour in this case, but usually when a config option is bad, mpv just ignores it and uses a sensible default. If you're not launching from a terminal you'll never see the error messages, and your config will seem to be fine.

>>156450292
>T
>Toggle stay-on-top (see also --ontop).

>>156450398
>>156450378
That stays on top. Not stay on top while playing. That's built into MPC. Why the fuck can these shit heads not do it?

>>156450292
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/lua/ontop-playback.lua

Works nicely.

I haven't been using codec packs since a few years...they're not really useful I think? I only use MPCHC and very rarely VLC if MPC can't read a vid.

But to be honnest I mostly stream these days, quality is starting to get decent.

>>156450406
Then you would have gotten what >>156450420 links by just googling your question and it shows up as the first result.

REMINDER THAT MPV HAS NO HOTKEY THAT MINIMIZES. MPC + MADVR MASTER RACE FOR 10 YEARS

>>156450468
Minimisation is your window manager's job. Is this not obvious?

>>156449849
>>literally does everything all other players do

Except display true 10bit unless you have a FirePro/Quadro GPU or run Linux.

You probably won't notice the difference between true 10bit and dithered anyway.

>>156450462
So I have to install Lua? Lua is garbage

>>156450537
No, just put the file in the script folder.

>>156450530
Your monitor can't display true 10bit anyway. Hell, it probably can't display true 8bit. It's all dither.

>>156450537
If you have OSC your mpv is already compiled with Lua support.

Chrome

Crunchyroll Web & 9anime.to

Which mpv shaders are good for anime?

How is there even a debate between mpv and MPC? Only MPC has SVP, so anyone who has watched more than 5 minutes of anime with SVP will always choose MPC.

Bait.

>>156447769
xy-VSFilter is abandoned, technically speaking xy-VSFilter is the standard for .ass subtitles as developer agree to no extend .ass capabilities but some neat features came out that were too hard to ignore which is why XySubFilter expanded upon it.
Too bad it has been abandoned too but thankfully it happened after it became feature complete so there isn't much to improve upon it beside performance, rendering subtitles with a 4K monitor using XySubfitler eats CPU cycles like crazy which is why AssFilterMod is being developed, still not feature complete like XyuSubfitler but it will eventually get there.
>>156450616
Not true, Nvidia Geforce GPUs can do true 10bit using DirectX11 + Exclusive Fullscreen mode in a 10bit panel, something OpenGL can't do.

>>156450753

wait, madvr can natively interpolate panning?
pan and zoom heavy shows are exactly what I'm using SVP for.

Yeah I totally love watching anime like this, and that's with high artifact masking.

Sure having smooth panning scenes is great but the cons far outweigh the pros

MPV can also use SVP anyway

>>156439364
Are you using Smooth Motion to achieve this? What are you settings?

24fps vs madVR 60hz interpolation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J9-PhJuRxc

madVR 60hz vs SVP 60 FPS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5XdghuwLOM

SVP 60fps is incredibly smooth, but the interpolation resembles tweening and honestly in motion it looks like jelly morphing shapes. madVR's 60hz interpolation at least maintains the animated feel and look of the original material and I prefer it

>>156451056
madvr smooth motion is not interpolation, it does frame blending.
Still recommended though, I use it myself too.

>>156432972
Nothing

>>156442354
That shits' from 2013.

My MPC setup is like 7 years old. I don't even remember most of how I'm supposed to keep it up to date, or whatever the current flavor of the month codec is.

>>156450828
Just google svp and go click on the first link (svp wiki).
Anime will never be the same.
That is, if you make it over the first hour or so of nausea because you're not used to anime in 60 fps.
>>156450897
That looks like a pretty bad distortion.
In my experience being on mid artifact masking is enough to never notice anything. For screenshots you should of course be looking for "real" frames.

>>156451238
Ofcourse but I wasn't even trying to look for "fake" frames, I was just trying to watch the scene normally but it was really obvious seeing the deformation even in normal playback.

It's just that I notice those things too easily and it annoys me a bit too much, so I ended up no longer using SVP.

>download mpv
>failed to take screenshot with no source of error
Immediately deleted

>>156442742
anyone? I don't get this problem with MPC-HC, but I prefer BE's layout so I'd rather not switch unless I have to.

>>156450767
My point is that even if your GPU supports it, your actual display doesn't.

Scenario 1:
Your software+GPU setup supports 10-bit, and sends 10-bit info to your display. Your display dithers to 6-bit, or maybe 8-bit if the display is slow or expensive.

Scenario 2:
Your GPU+software setup doesn't support 10bit, and dithers down to 8bit, sending this info to your display. Your display dithers down to 6-bit or displays as is.

Can you tell me your VLC settings? I'll compare it again with new settings.

Hop off the bandwagon. Learn how to adjust your settings. Not going to spoonfeed you.

Why wouldn't you just stream to your X-Box One or similar Microsoft streaming device to relax on the couch and watch with your friends and family?

This is something your window manager is supposed to do.
