>>55083894
What is shitty?

Which is the best for you and why?
- spline36
- ewa_lanczos
- ewa_lanczossharp
- CrossBilateral

>>55084148
spline36
Good enough and will work on anything but the shittiest toasters

scale=bilinear:user-shaders="~~/adaptive-sharpen.glsl"
scale=spline16:user-shaders="~~/FineSharp.glsl"
scale=spline36:user-shaders="~~/lumasharpen.glsl"

Which one is the best for you?
I really need sharpener and I have a really shitty computer.

>blend-subtitles turned on even for the profiles without interpolation
why the fuck even

>>55084148
spline36 is an approximation of a 2D lanczos (similar to scale=lanczos but ever so slightly less ringy)

ewa_lanczos is an improvement that reduces aliasing

ewa_lanczossharp is an improvement that reduces aliasing further (and slightly increases sharpness)

crossbilateral isn't even comparable with the other three (apples and oranges)

>>55084241
they're all shit. sharpening adds no information to the image that wasn't there before, it's just completely unnecessary distortion

It works perfectly with MPC-HC. So I doubt there is something wrong with the file. Another issue I have with mpv is weird dots around the edges of the subtitles, but only with subtitles like these, that has a dark field behind the text.

I might try ffmpeg and mpv from git master later. For now I must get some sleep.

any guide to basic commands with mpv?

Istead of those "common" presets include this into OP next time please:

> 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.

>It works perfectly with MPC-HC. So I doubt there is something wrong with the file.
There are three scenarios:

1. libass has a bug that is causing mpv to misrender a file which is not supposed to contain the borders
2. VSFilter has a bug that is causing MPC-HC to misrender a file which *is* supposed to contain the borders
3. The correct way to render it is undefined behavior

I don't really speak ass, but it has something to do with this part of the sub file:

[V4+ Styles]
Format: Name, Fontname, Fontsize, PrimaryColour, SecondaryColour, OutlineColour, BackColour, Bold, Italic, Underline, StrikeOut, ScaleX, ScaleY, Spacing, Angle, BorderStyle, Outline, Shadow, Alignment, MarginL, MarginR, MarginV, Encoding
Style: Default,DejaVu Sans,42,&H00F1F4F9,&H000000FF,&H64000000,&H96000000,0,0,0,0,100,100,0,0,3,0.1,0,1,250,80,35,186

>>55086050
Seems to be this but:

>BorderStyle
which is set to ‘3’ in this .ass file

Looking at the documentation of aegisub, there are the following values for BorderStyle:

>Border style - determines the style of the subtitle border:
>Outline + shadow - all letters have outline and a drop shadow
>Opaque box - a solid box is drawn under the text

http://subtitleproc.sourceforge.net/help/SP_E_Style.htm

So, how much do you wager that 3 means “Opaque box”?

>>55086101
I looked it up, 3 *does* mean BorderStyle

So in other words, libass is rendering your subtitle as per the spec and therefore mpv is in the right

Please file an MPC-HC bug.

you should use angle because d3d11va is better than dxva2

Because it is and the thread is here so we can talk about it, configs, settings, give support and talk about/write/share shaders and scripts.

>obliterating the video quality because your eye muscles are too lazy to move slightly

monolithic kek

>>55088620
It has probably the highest quality renderer of all current media players and at the same the pretty much everything is configurable. It is definitely the only one properly color managed and it is pretty much arbitrarily extendable through shaders and scripts.

Disadvantages: somebody not familiar with details of video processing will obviously need a bit of preliminary reading before he can understand the more complex parts of video rendering. Also, there is no front-end offering a clickable GUI for the options. Some ppl care about that, some don't.

>>55088870
To be quite honest I have never had a need for subtitles on 2.35:1 content anyway. I watch my anime in Japanese and my cinema in American as God intended. I need subtitles for the anime, but it's always in 16:9 and it uses ASS subtitles which can't be repositioned.

God I command, place this pleb into the waste disposal recepticle.

>>55088932
Which can't be sanely repositioned. Yeah, there are heuristics for figuring out which lines of dialogue can probably be moved off-screen without breaking the script, but it's not possible to accomplish this generally without missing lines that should be moved or breaking scripts.

>>55088939
mpv is for anime.

>watching anything in 47:20

I know you guys are mpv users, i am too, but i'm wondering if anyone can offer advice for this problem i'm having with ffmpeg.

i'm just trying to convert a gif to webm, but i'm getting this error:

Output file #0 does not contain any stream

Output #0, webm, to ' -i file:///blabla/chicks.gif -c:v libvpx -b:v 1M -c:a libvorbis chickens.webm':

>>55089401
Works for me. Some broken/weird gif? Does it work on other gifs? Also does your ffmpeg have libvpx support?

>>55089401

So I'm new to mpv, is there anyway to make my monitor run at the same fps of the movie? I remember seeing that movies played at 23.xxx or 24/25fps.

Another question, if my monitor is at 1080p 60hz and I open a 23fps movie, what changes? does the movie get sped up or nothing happens at all?

>>55090625
Hopefully haasn is lurking and he knows what to do about that warning. I get it with all my profiles too, so I just set icc-contrast=1000 to silence it. It still looks like the profile works with that option, so it's probably the right thing to do.

>>55090680
That's interesting by the way. If you want it fixed, you could raise an issue on GitHub. Do you know if other non-copyback hardware decoders (like LAV's) have the same problem?

>>55091085
Yeah I hope he sees it. Speaking of profiles, do you know a proper website to get them? pretty much all of them look fishy as fuck and I just assume they're generic profiles just with the name and vendor ID changed, my monitor is a SM633NW so it's kinda old and hard to find somewhere "trustworthy".

Also do you "install" the profile or just use it solely for mpv and let windows/linux handle the colors?

>>55091116
The "proper" answer to this question is to always generate your own profile, because manufacturing differences between panels can be huge, possibly even larger than the difference between the panel and an ideal sRGB monitor.

That said, I use a profile from TFT Central for my main PC and subjectively, I think it looks better than mpv with colour management off and mpv with sRGB output.

>Also do you "install" the profile or just use it solely for mpv and let windows/linux handle the colors?
I configure them in Windows and set mpv to use icc-profile-auto because it's the only way to get mpv to automatically switch profiles on multi-monitor systems.

>>55091112
>non-copyback hardware decoders (like LAV's)
What do you mean by that? other programs? I've only tested it with dxva2, d3d11va and auto

>>55091221
I'm just wondering if it's a driver problem or an mpv problem (or an ANGLE problem.) If other media players (like LAV/MPC-HC) have the same problem, it could be the former, but if it's the latter, it's probably something that should be fixed. If you don't have MPC-HC installed, don't worry about it. I'm just wondering.

>>55091243
How do I test that? just install mpc-hc and play the video or I'd have to install madvr and all that crap?

>>55091255
I don't think you need madVR and I think MPC-HC comes with LAV these days, but you would probably have to enable hardware decoding in the settings somewhere.

>>55091034
>So I'm new to mpv, is there anyway to make my monitor run at the same fps of the movie? I remember seeing that movies played at 23.xxx or 24/25fps
Not out of the box, but there are Lua scripts for it. This one is for Linux only: https://github.com/lvml/mpv-plugin-xrandr

>Another question, if my monitor is at 1080p 60hz and I open a 23fps movie, what changes? does the movie get sped up or nothing happens at all?
Depends on your settings. Out of the box, mpv will synchronize playback to the audio clock and push frames to the display whenever they are scheduled, without really caring about the display's refresh rate. If you set

video-sync=display-resample

, it will display frames with an even 2:3 cadence, so one video frame for two display refreshes, then one video frame for three display refreshes, and it will resample the audio so it's in time with the video (which may result in a very slight pitch-shift.) If you have ever used ReClock, I think it does a similar thing.

If you set the above setting and you use

vo=opengl-hq:interpolation

, it will smoothly blend the frames into each other (this is like madVR's smoothmotion,) which is supposed to simulate what the video would look like if it was being played on a display with the proper refresh rate.

>>55091442
So there isn't a windows version of that script? what other ways can I achieve that? custom resolutions from GPU panel?

>>55091335
Well I got the latest MPC-HC but it has only dxva2, no d3d11va(?) so I don't know if it's really fair comparison.

I'll open a ticket anyways with more info.

>>55091491
>So there isn't a windows version of that script?
I think I remember seeing one that used NirCmd to change the refresh rate, but I can't find it.

User scripts are usually linked to from here, but that one is missing: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/User-Scripts

>what other ways can I achieve that? custom resolutions from GPU panel?
Yeah, if your monitor supports 23.976Hz, 24Hz modes, or any multiple of these (48Hz, 72Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz, etc.) you could set them manually. Make sure you use

video-sync=display-resample

>>55091560
Thanks. Hopefully there's a solution.

>>55091571
So let's say I create [email protected] and 24hz in the AMD panel and I have

video-sync=display-resample

, when I open mpv it will Just Work™?

>>55091592
You'll actually have to set those resolutions somehow. Either manually or with a script. mpv can't do it automatically yet.

If you create them and set them (so your desktop is running at those rates) it should just work.

>>55091610

>>55091588

>>55091185

>like if it was being played on a display with the proper refresh rate

So if the movie is at 23fps it will "interpolate-down"? like a game that is running at low fps while your display is always at 60? this is what I'm not getting, I always thought interpolation made everything seem 60fps so "interpolating-up" (kek)

>>55092969
There is no interpolating up or down, neither mpv's interpolation makes everything seem 60 fps. If you want to go with gaymen analogies it makes your frametime graph smooth instead of microstuttering.

the -- is necessary when passing those commands on the command line, e.g.

. It's not necessary inside the config file.

>I think is because of how save on quit works
Save on quit saves your video mixer settings (along with volume, etc), yes.

>So if the movie is at 23fps it will "interpolate-down"? like a game that is running at low fps while your display is always at 60? this is what I'm not getting, I always thought interpolation made everything seem 60fps so "interpolating-up" (kek)

believable, so how come they haven't remove it? I myself have found it rather useless too

and thanks
>>55096185
I really want to understand why would anyone do this

>>55096185

All of them appear as 60fps (estimated and specified) by stats.lue

Mine's really fucking green

>>55096530
I see it the same, maybe because of different monitor calibrations?

>>55096564
Yeah now that I've posted it it looks the same, looks way different when actually playing on mpv and I don't have any contrast settings or whatever on my conf file

>>55096664
try using a screenshot capture software like sharex/greenshot I would recommend the former.

Here's how it looks with just window's print screen, not even this one looks right, too much orange

>>55096740
Is this not what you are seeing, because yeah that's a lot of orange

I can't get mpv to work. Nothing happens when I try to open a file with it and when I try to open a file with SMPlayer I get this error:
>MPlayer/mpv has finished unexpectedly. Exit code: 127

Tried googling but couldn't find anything. Anyone knows what might be up? Keep in mind I'm pretty much completely new in Linux, I just installed Ubuntu MATE yesterday.

>>55096797
I don't use linux, but I think people are gonna call you out on using SMPlayer.. is from what I heard pretty awful.

Without the monitor profile

>>55096835
Well I don't really use SMPlayer, I just downloaded it to try it out but couldn't even get it to work. I've been using GNOME MPlayer. Was the only one except VLC that I could get to work.

>>55096864
Why didn't you download MPV instead?
I know the no GUI is stupid, but why not?
I believe you are supposed to use

sudo apt-get install mpv

on terminal

>>55096885
I did download MPV first. When it didn't open the file I tried downloading SMPlayer. They're both installed atm, but neither is working.

>>55096917
tried asking on the friendly linux thread, sorry I couldn't help you buddy

>>55096942
Yeah I was actually on my way there when I saw this thread. Thought I'd give it a shot here first, but I'll move over to the linux thread then. Thanks nonetheless.

Is there a play list in mpv or a fronted/whatever, lads?

>>55096305
>believable, so how come they haven't remove it? I myself have found it rather useless too
It makes a difference if you're using interpolation or color management, neither of which those presets do..

I guess you must also be mentally retarded

>>55097374
Oh right I'll just guess the arbitrary contrast value equivalent to my monitor on mpv, great idea freetard

yes

no? (and yes I viewed with and without interpolation enabled)

How do i edit the settings for this?

>>55097406
why thank you

>>55097406
there needs to be a way to move the video you're currently watching up or down in the playlist so you can actually rearrange it

>>55098049
When do you ever find yourself in need of doing this? Why not just have them in the right order to begin with? idgi, got an example for me?

>>55098049
you could do that with a lua script and the playlist-mova command

Does adding downsizing in the config actually do anything or does mpv automatically down mix to 2 channels if it doesn't detect more than 2 speakers? It makes the volume when i play my 5.1 channel video files lower and it still sounds the same as far as I can tell.

I am bad with sound stuff.

>>55098141

>When do you ever find yourself in need of doing this? Why not just have them in the right order to begin with? idgi, got an example for me?
You open a motherless video, then shift+drag and drop them onto mpv to add them to the playlist. You've based your selection entirely on the thumbnails alone so you don't exactly know what the video is going to contain. You're halfway through the playlist when you realize the video you're watching is interracial cuckold porn, your favorite. This is what you want to shoot your load to, you now want it last in the playlist. Instead of hitting pgdn to go the next video, you hit ctrl+pgdn 3 times, moving the currently playing video down to the end of the playlist and displaying the $playlist text so you can can see it's position move. Then you go back to where you left off by hitting pgup 3 times and continue watching your playlist, with the gold being at the end of the rainbow. I think this feature would be invaluable and solidify mpvs status as the #1 media player for consuming internet pornography.

>>55098213
Makes sense, you could definitely write a script for it.

Personally I just continue watching as normal and then when I reach the end of the playlist I go back to the one I wanted to blow my load to.

Less keypresses overall, actually.

see this and the few options after it

>>55098213
here you go http://hastebin.com/obazikulut.lua F6 to move current file to end of playlist.

Happy to help a fellow mpv fapper, I got many scripts to make fapping a nicer experience

>>55098255
Not him but this shit never works here, you set audio channels to 1/mono whatever and it's still ALWAYS stereo

>>55098412
mpv can only influence the channels it sends to your audio output

the audio output driver probably does its own thing. Use ALSA on Linux if you want to be in control over your exact audio chain

>>55098397
Could you make it so it moves it +1 in the playlist if you press F6 and -1 if you press F5 with playlist_move? That would be perfect.

>>55098854
It would take you maybe 10 minutes at most, with no prior experience, to learn enough of Lua and the mpv API to write that yourself.

If I use mpv to open an image, it renders a transparent frame (save for a small black rectangle top right) until I refresh it somehow (e.g. resizing the player). Anybody knows how to fix that?

>>55098892
calling bullshit on that if you know zero programming. would take you longer than that just to read the relevant part of the manual.

>>55083877
Why is deband in the low but not in the medium preset?

>>55099098
opengl-hq includes deband

How can I make the terminal display a term-osd-bar with a customized term-status-msg? Even if it's enabled in the config it's not displayed. I thought I had to include the osd bar in the status-msg but there isn't any property to do so.

>>55098892
>not just changing around input.conf

>>55083877
Whats with this meme of shoping stuff over the mpv logo? I don't get it.

>>55099510
it's just one autist doing it

>>55095467
Is that yours? Then your TV doesn't actually support 23.976, It only supports 60 in progressive mode
I have an old Sharp HDTV that has interlaced modes, but I haven't played much with it, though iirc I never got the interlaced modes to work
>did you have to create any custom resolutions with CRU/GPU panel? if so which ones?
I use a CRT, I only created 72 hz for 23.976 and 24 content, and 75 hz for 25 content, I created them with the GPU panel

How do I update mpv if I compiled it from the git repo? Do I have to compile it again from scratch?

>>55097402
Find it or get a decent profile that has the black point in it

>>55099625
Yeah it's mine, it's not a TV tho. I managed to create a 72hz 1080p resolution using AMD's panel but autospeed just won't work, it's always like >>55095927

Why are the best things always developed by fosstards and linuxfag?

I am wondering how these people live. Do they have family or a job? Do they live in a cave?

>Why are the best things always developed by fosstards and linuxfag?
Proprietary programs are developed by companies whose only interest is turning a profit over to their shareholders.

Free programs are developed by enthusiastic hobbyist with a passion for what they're doing.

Which group do you think cares more about writing quality code?

>>55099755
Your answer is logical, maybe too much to be true.

>>55085343
looks fine to me, what's the problem?

>>55099192
Anyone? Do you all use the default terminal status line?

>>55099192
Seems like term-status-msg completely overrides the default play status (including the bar).

Not sure if there's a way around it.

>>55099755
You are retarded.
