CHALLENGE: produce an equally sharp mpv upscale to this MadVR upscale with as little noise and artifacting as this upscale, and post repeatable mpv settings for the upscale. MadVR settings for this are NGU AA medium image upscaling, and adaptive sharpen 1.0 + crispen edges 1.0 + anti-ringing filter under upscaling refinement. This image utilizes AMD denoising but you can use mpv's dn3dHQ for an equivalent effect. This challenge has been posted on /g/ many times and /g/ has failed every attempt at it.
Note: your subjective opinion of how nice this looks is irrelevant to this challenge. This is a technological experiment to see if mpv can produce an upscale this sharp without noise or artifacting. Refusing to attempt the challenge because of ambiguous buzzwords will be interpreted as an admission of defeat.

Anybody use the normalize audio setting in MPC-HC?
>>
>>158796618
No. It causes audio clipping. I have, though, used Izotope Ozone's very high quality brickwall limiter to "remaster" audio tracks on my archived anime to reduce their dynamic range; Ozone is very awesome at clipping peaks without audible distortion or pumping.

>>
>>158798351
I don't know how but I tested it immediately after>>158796618 posted and it rather immediately produced extremely audible clipping.
My best intepretation is to prevent clipping with it you need to know the exact percent you can boost the loudest moment in the audio track by without clipping in order to use it without clipping, and you'd need to extract the audio with MKVCleaver and open and inspect it in an audio editor to know that information. Obviously nobody's going to do this every time they watch a new episode, so this makes the normalize feature impractical.
Remastering audio of archived anime as shown by >>158797268 is the best way to reduce dynamic range without producing distortion or pumping, but is time-consuming.
>>
>>158798569
Another drawback of that remastering method is if your archived anime has lossy audio, you'll need to save the remastered audio as storage space hungry FLAC to prevent audible lossy artifacts resulting from encoding the same audio twice with lossy codecs. Of course, if your source audio is FLAC then you can encode to Opus 192 kbps, which is rather uber.

mpv does not navigate between files in the same folder and lacks seekbar thumbnails.

Before you try linking a LUA script for file navigation, keep in mind that none of them work regardless of keybind settings since the next and previous buttons on the OSC are still grayed out.

Yes, it does not function. The OSC next/previous buttons do not function either.

Meanwhile, MPC with MadVR works perfectly. I didn't need to download or write a script (that ends up not working at all) to do something as simple as navigate between files in the same folder.
>>
>>158803275
Thanks anon. Are those the "best settings" for mpv?
>>
>>158803226
You need to create a .txt file and save it as .conf, paste the .conf file in the same folder as mpv, you can edit the .conf file with any text editor.

Try adding something like

profile=opengl-hq

This will tell mpv to use better scalers and debanding.

You can add more settings.

I actually tried out MadVR ~6 months ago but didn't notice any difference what so ever so just went back to LAV + ffdshow which is the default.

The only thing I could understand that madVR has going for it is hardware acceleration. (LAV has it too tho.) But that is completely useless. The whole software acceleration vs hardware acceleration doesn't matter unless you're on some POS chromebook or something.

>audio: eng
LAV and ffdshow both do audio and video rendering, and the former also has a splitter. Why would you need two things doing the same thing? It's not like you're going to use them both at the same time for the same task. The reason you want madvr is for video rendering, not decoding. You use it in combination with either LAV or ffdshow. Hardware decoding does not work for 10bit video at all, and is dumb anyway.

Not with h.264, which you might have seen if you'd bothered to read the article you linked. Regardless, hardware decoding works with LAV or ffdshow's video decoder. Instead of using the CPU you're using the GPU. It doesn't replace them.

K-lite is, and has always been, bloated garbage. If you're going to use a codec pack at least use CCCP.

Crunchyroll premium on Firefox and a bluray disc player.

I have compared several titles on Crunchyroll premium (1080p) (I use my TV as a monitor) vs the respective bluray's on a Sony UBP-X800/KD55-A1 combo and the difference in noise is unnoticeable unless you pause, put your face in front of the TV and search for it. Even when doing so the difference is really small.

Other factors like color and FPS remain unaffected when switching between those two sources.

MPC is all you need. CCCP is outdated and will fuck up your video.
>>
>>158805810
No it won't.
>>
>>158805858
I see you only use horrible subs mkvs
>>
>>158805858
I've been using CCCP for a decade and have never had it fuck up a video once. Yes, it hasn't been updated for a release build in a while, but there's nothing wrong with it.

You clearly know what youre talking about.
No you dont, as expected of a streamfag, just shut the fuck up.

I still use MPC-HC, MadVR and XySubFilter with the settings that nyaa.se used to recommend. Why change something that works?
>>
Casuals: vlc
Nerds: MPC-HC + madVR
Real men: mpv

>>158808728
What is so manly about throwing a few lines of text in a config file?
If anything it was quicker and easier to tweak once you know the options than messing with the GUI in mpc-hc, I would happily choose either and be satisfied with the end result.
Only reason I solely use mpv these days is because I use arch as my primary OS.
>>
But what's the best one for mac?
>>
So I set up MPC + MadVR + xysubfilter months ago , It looks better than MPV but it takes literally more than minute to open the file.I was using Kawaii codec pack since forever but anons said it's dead so I switched. What the fuck did I do wrong?
>>
>>158793993
mpv or Bomi. Or VLC if you enjoy gray glitching as the video loads after you unpause it.
>>
>>158810381
>What the fuck did I do wrong?
You fucking switch when nothing's wrong at all.

It's like fixing a working door
>>
>>158810381
>looks better than MPV
If you want MPV with a UI look into Bomi. It's based on MPV but it also has GUI settings.
>>
>>158810747
I didn't mean the UI , I compared the image quality of the video specially when playing upscales.It's very very minimal.
>>
>all these MPC-HC fags
It's like no one has heard of MPC-BE
>>
>>158793993
MPC for Windows, VLC for Android.

why would you ever want to reduce dynamic range? It will give you ear fatigue
>>
If you refuse to use mpv, at least change to LAV Filters Megamix
https://www.videohelp.com/software/LAV-Filters-Megamix
It's the same thing as CCCP and KCP but it's actually still updated
>>
>>158804231
There's no hardware decoding for H264/x264 10bit.
If you use CUVID/DXVA2 and play a 10bit video it falls back to software mode.

There is hardware decoding for H264 8 bit, HEVC 8/10/12, VP9 8/10 but none and probably never will h264 10 bit ever become mainstream enough for hardware manufacturers to care about it.

>It will give you ear fatigue
This isn't music we're talking about, and no, it won't, unless you're listening at an unreasonable volume. There's a couple of reasons why one may want to do so:
- An episode that's mostly at the same volume level, but with one or a few extremely loud moments twice as loud as the rest, like >>158797268 won't cause the isolated moments to be super loud, possibly hurting ears or startling others in the home if listening with speakers;
- Some users may be using EQ, which will lower their volume level if done correctly in a manner which doesn't cause clipping. Some users may also be using high impedance/low sensitivity headphones/speakers with a source that doesn't have a ton of headroom for extra gain. Users doing one or both of these things may find that some sources mastered at a low level may not get loud enough for their liking. Reducing dynamic range without causing distortion or pumping is a practical solution to this problem;
- Users without a super high quality audio source may find that when they turn the volume up for sources mastered at a low level, they get audible hissing from their source. Reducing dynamic range and boosting the overall volume of the file can prevent this hissing.

SMPlayer+MPV as the engine.

I stream Crunchyroll through mpv with youtube-dl. It just works.

That guide is outdated as fuck and tells you to install lots of unnecessary bloat garbage

1. Make portable_config folder in your mpv.exe folder (assuming you use Windows)
2. Make a mpv.conf in there
3. Only use a few basic options unless you're a hardcore videophile and you already know what you're doing

These are the only ones I need

#decent video quality options in only one line
profile=opengl-hq

#keeps mpv open when a video ends
keep-open=yes

#resizes vertically large videos so they don't go under the taskbar
autofit-larger=100%x90%

#set screenshot directory, and filename template to be similar to MPC-HC
screenshot-directory="C:/home/pictures"
screenshot-template="%f (%wH.%wM.%wS.%wT) [%tY.%tm.%td %tH.%tM.%tS]"

#loops webms and gifs forever
[extension.webm]
loop-file=inf

What about nope

Those aren't anons, probably just shitposters/crossboarders.

>>158805810
It won't fuck up the video, but madVR isna good tool to improve the quality in HS ' shitty encodes
>>
>>158801471
Even if you watch 1080p you still need to upscale the chroma channel, also some BD encodes are still shit and have banding and whatnot
>>

The mpv one looks less blurry, focus on her mouth

You idiots will never notice a difference between madVR video and some fucking random shit at the same bitrate and resolution.
