/mpv/ - keep it simple

New updates for SSSR and CrossBilateral from Shiandow recently!
Any chances to get them for igv's mpv user-shaders?
https://github.com/Shiandow?tab=activity

This is what I use with my little netbook/laptop without dedicated graphic card, I use hwdec because my cpu is very limited.
profile=opengl-hq
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
hwdec=d3d11va-copy

I retried the old mpc-hc/madvr stack on my laptop and damn I can't use debanding and jinc for upscaling without choppy playback. That's weird because it should be more efficient with native directx.

>>56428380
>I put in the request, you responded with, "I don't know what this thing is. CLOSED."
I? I never even posted in these issues. Most mpv devs don't lurk let alone post here with haasn and maybe ricon being an exception.

>>56428380
>It's your users who are running into files that they can't play. I put in the initial request so they wouldn't run into suboptimal behavior.
>>56429905
>So it seems mpv users have been running into encodes their player can't handle for quite some time now.
Actually, you put the only requests. No mpv user ever requested this on his own so I have to assume no mpv user ever run into such files. Even when we assume it was not all you (but we know it better, right) then it was exactly one user reporting this so far. One user who stopped answering/posting pretty soon so I guess his interest wasn't that high. He probably just downloaded a better encode.
But you sure like to put it in a way that one might assume this "feature" is used everywhere and all the poor mpv users can't play all these files. :/ In reality though, everybody is using ordered chapters.

>>56430989
>Do they even know ordered chapters exist? Considering it looks like they went and manually inserted sixty-four copies of the NCOP in FMA:B, I'd say, "No."
Considering they use ordered chapters and often have "play all" files I have to assume they do know what it is.

>If you want to argue that mpv's market share is so low that it's statistically probable that they're the only two mpv users in the anime community, I'll accept that.
Kinda doubtful, looking at the members of the mpv group.
Gets even worse when you look at the contributors.

>>56434675
Why copyback?

>>56435059
opengl is more efficient then madvr's directx, unless you have very crappy opengl support in your gpu's drivers.

>>56435059
madVR and vo_opengl have almost nothing to do with each other, neither in operation nor in code. The algorithms are completely different, rely on different graphics stacks, and are presumably tuned for different GPUs.

(vo_opengl is developed using nvidia GPUs on linux, but it performs best on AMD GPUs)

>>56435090
>>Do they even know ordered chapters exist? Considering it looks like they went and manually inserted sixty-four copies of the NCOP in FMA:B, I'd say, "No."

CoalGirls is a loose collection of multiple, mostly independent encoders each more or less doing their own thing.

>>56435195
That's just because AMD GPUs are stronger overall for GPGPU usage.

>>56435217
AMD GPUs are stronger overall period.

(At the cost of power efficiency and driver support)

>>56435195
My old laptop was amd based and it was terrible.
They removed opengl and opencl (useless for mpv) entirely from their official drivers! I had to install the leshcatlab unnofficial drivers.

>>56435128
Why not?

>>56434214
New Krig mode in CrossBilateral is pretty useless right now, a lot of color/edge bleeding.
Nothing useful in SSSR update.

>>56436149
Thanks for the info!

>>56436149
What does "krig" mean?
Why are there so many weird names (lanczos, spline, sinc, jinc, ginseng, ...) in image processing?

>>56436239
to make matters more confusing jinc is actually lanczos too

>>56436252
Don't forget the weirdest one, haasnsoft. ;)
It sounds like russian. :D

>>56436252
spline is pretty much too, and ginseng is sinc + jinc

You would probably have a point if not for the fact that your userbase uses these excruciatingly tweaked and optimised codecs and algorithms to watch shitty hangul comics

>>56436291
Haasnsoft is just Haasn's own take on Bicubic.

>>56436313
tfw I don't know if I should use spline64 or ewa_lanczossharp

>>56436360
Maybe spline36 with antiringing!

>>56436356
He really likes that blur piece of shit filter. He uses bicubic for interpolation, how does he not vomit on panning scenes?

>>56436379
Ever so slightly blurrier than ewa_lanczossharp. Practically identical

>>56436375
Don't ask me. Some people prefer a blurry image with no artifacts or ringing instead of a sharp image with artifacts and ringing.

>>56436360
just use ewa_ginseng

>>56436391
Why not play the video at its original framerate without any convertions or interpolations?

>>56436411
11 letters vs 16

>>56436403
>Why not play the video at its original framerate?
Because no refresh rate can display 23.976Hz properly without resyncing. The best you're going to get is 24Hz or 48Hz.

>Without any convertions or interpolation
Because some people watch low quality content (old anime, old movies, old shows etc.) and want to improve it by any means possible. Also there's inherent judder in content that I personally dislike so I use interpolation + 144Hz to get rid of it.

>>56436372
It's just an alias name.
However I still don't understand why did he change scale-radius in his config file and not in the source directly?

>>56436375
Do you use windows? Because I have vomit effect too on win10 but works on linux!

>>56436421

But they are. It's the drivers that are shit, AMD has always been more advanced in terms of features. Just look at DX12 and Async Compute

>>56436505
Yes it works and with bitstreaming too.

>>56436531
>Just look at DX12 and Async Compute

Which is irrelevant for a video player.and in no way indicative of performance.

Either way the point is moot because any modern GPU and run mpv/madvr at high settings.

We were talking about "stronger overall", not what's better for playing videos or upscaling

If i wanted to be able to render, with audio, as many videos at once as possible on GNU/Linux

What GPU should I buy?

I assume mpv is the program which can handle the most simultaneously.

I don't mind if i have to use binary blobs to get better performance either.

That depends on how many videos you are going to run simultaneously.

That depends on how many i can run, basically as many as nicely divide my viewing resolution.

But someone in another thread says CPU bottlenecks you way before video.

You do know these are defaults right you fucking faggot? I swear you haven't even read the wiki.

How much more demanding is opengl-hq (with deband=no) compared to default opengl

Actually I have (of course, not all of it) but I don't always remember which settings are default and which are not.. I'm still trying to get around everything, playing and trying out different settings.. right now I'm pretty happy.

>>56437082
>ytdl=yes

for what reasons

>>56436391
Im definitely in that club.

Got a 144 hz monitor and I force interpolation all the same. I cant notice the low framerate that easily on my 60hz TV because its a little shit and has some crazy ghosting. But my gayman monitor makes panning shots ugly as hell.

I'd rather some blur than watch shit stairstep across the screen.

QUESTION: Would what im describing technically be temporal aliasing?

Also does Nyquist Sampling apply to supersampling? IE, if you shoot a photo, you ideally should at twice the resolution before downscaling and it will pick up everything right?

>>56437132
>hwdec=no
I personally change it a lot.

Don't really see the point in having framedrop=vo though.
>>56436890

Every single time. It's always the Windows fags.

>>56437234

>for what reasons
Why would I save a screenshot as png? It's going to make the file unnecessarily big, I'm okay with the unoticable loss of quality.. And as for the volume.. some vids I download have ridiculously quiet audio tracks. It happens sometimes..

>>56437258
>I force interpolation all the same.
What tscale? Not even bicubic gets rid of all the sutter in panning scenes for me (i have a 60hz monitor)

Maybe you should stop and think for a second that your shitty poorfag 60Hz monitor is the problem.

The 24fps stutter happens on every screen

Heh, Coalgirls were notorious for using ordered chapters back in 2010/2011, one of the reasons they got much salt and hate from users. Not all of their releases used it though.
https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=371625&show=50#msg24447731

Linux (and OSX) users would remember there were no players which can properly play ordered chapters around that time, VLC and mplayer didn't support it, and IIRC mplayer/mplayer2 fork started because mplayer was shit slow at implementing new features like it

why would you even consider this

So, a couple of updates ago mpv changed their audio settings somehow.

Previously it would remember my volume percentage and I would keep my system audio at 100% and mpv at about 70%.

Now whatever I do my videos start at 100% and allow for a maximum of 130%, but even then they are fucking quiet and I can barely hear anything.

Watching every youtube video in the browser now, which is louder than mpv at 20-30% of youtube's volume bar.

Why did they have to break this and what can I do to fix it?

Waste of bandwidth? Copyback is slow

24 Hz and 23.976 Hz are effectively the same thing
24 Hz -> 48 Hz is a lossless conversion

If your monitor can do 24, 48, 72, 96 or 120 Hz, then you can view the image unprocessed. Otherwise, you can't and are forced to use interpolation of some sort

>>56441632

>>56441690
>24 Hz and 23.976 Hz are effectively the same thing
Not exactly. You still need display-resample to turn it into true 24Hz video by speeding the video by about 0.125% or around that

>>56436449
>You can use display resample and set your screen to 48hz or 72hz. No need for interpolation
This is an incredibly naive point of view. There's no such thing as “no interpolation”, all you're doing is using nearest neighbour / ZOL instead of something else.

>>56437140
Relatively speaking, it's a lot more demanding. (Orders of magnitude)
Absolutely speaking, not very much. (It's still like <5% of a modern GPU's capacity)

Mostly it just requires a much higher feature set (FBO support, etc.) which can be extremely slow on older hardware that don't have good native support for it.

>>56437258
>QUESTION: Would what im describing technically be temporal aliasing?
Yes

>Also does Nyquist Sampling apply to supersampling? IE, if you shoot a photo, you ideally should at twice the resolution before downscaling and it will pick up everything right?
Yes and no. You should ideally use a sensor that's specifically designed to blur the image slightly before sampling it. I don't know that much about cameras but I think most quality cameras / lenses do this.

Even if you sample at 2x resolution and then downscale, if your initial sampling has heavy aliasing artifacts (moiré etc.), then you're going to see artifacts after downscaling.

It's like the classic flashing light + rotating disk setup. If the initial sampling frequency is such that the rotating disk appears stationary, then even downsampling that result won't suddenly make it appear to move. This is why you can't easily get rid of aliasing after sampling, you have to do it before sampling.

>>56437284
I use bicubic and pans are buttery smooth for me. I watched some anime the other day and the pans felt like they were 60 Hz

Are you using windows or linux? Windows has had problems with display syncing and interpolation pretty much forever (thank Microsoft for making everything shitty on windows)

You should probably check with this clip: https://github.com/haasn/interpolation-samples/raw/master/60.000.mkv
If it appears completely smooth and without any stuttering of any kind, then you're good to go. If not, fix your setup first.

>>56438037
‘scale’ is the universal scaler that's used for both upscaling and downscaling by default

Are you using pulseaudio? If so, open up pavucontrol and drag the mpv slider back to 100%

It sounds like you have a really low volume from some other persistent audio stack interfering with mpv's own volume

>>56442751
Is pulseaudio still updated?
The last time I tried this (maybe in 2009) it was almost dead!

>>56442751
Thanks, that did it.

It was stuck at a 28% for some reason.

>>56442751
It should be added into the mpv FAQ!

>>56442784
Yes? PulseAudio is the current standard audio stack on pretty much every linux-based OS except minimalist setups.

>>56442855
Why not just ALSA?

>>56443144
Because the normies want features like persistent volume and per-stream mixing.

>>56443216
>per-stream mixing.
Can't you do that with dmix or whatever it's called?

>>56443216
Who cares about normies, it's not like they're going to use Linux anytime soon :^)

Sometimes I wonder how people put up with audio/video on Linux

>>56443244
dmix can't do stuff like switching a stream from one audio device to another without disrupting playback, or stuff like per-stream volume/blance controls or muting.

Basically PulseAudio is highly dynamic and does stuff like dynamically adjusting device volumes, sampling rates or buffer sizes on the fly to minimize overhead, based on what streams are currently being played.

(It will e.g. do stuff like switching the device between 44.1 kHz operation and 48 kHz operation based on what you're playing, which can matter especially on mobile platforms where resampling costs battery time)

ALSA in contrast is highly rigid/static - you have to statically configure your DSP graph and write it into your alsa configuration file. You can't change the routing on the fly, you have to restart all programs for changes to take effect. You also have to learn the obscure ALSA syntax instead of using fancy point-and-click GUIs, which is normie-incompatible.

ALSA also has other issues, like latency and xruns if you don't carefully tune your buffer sizes correctly (and often even if you do), but anyway at the end of the day it will work as long as you're willing to put in the time to manually configure it. Normies don't want to do so, hence PulseAudio is shipped by default in normie distros.

>ALSA also has other issues, like latency
Really? I thought PulseAudio was the one filled with audio latency, that's why Jack exists

>>56445267
You know changing 2 scalers, and adding 3 to 6 lines (depending if you want interpolation) of text isn't really that hard and you don't need to install anything but mpv

>>56445256
If you don't know what you're talking about it may help to keep your mouth shut

>>56445309
lol sure keep studying up on mpv manuals to try and even come close to the experience windows users can have in literal seconds with zero effort

>>56445278
PulseAudio does this sort of weird glitchless low-latency hybrid thing, where it uses large buffers in the multiple second range (to save CPU time and therefore power, and also prevent xruns) but still responds to e.g. volume changes instantly. It does this to optimize it for both responsiveness and power usage simultaneously.

ALSA only uses naive buffering, so if you want a 500ms buffer you'll have to wait 500ms for e.g. a volume change or seek command to propagate through the buffer. (And with lower buffers, you can end up xrunning on some audio devices e.g. realtek SPDIF); and if you want to use a 10ms buffer or something for low-latency operation then you end up underrunning constantly

This is pretty orthogonal to what JACK is trying to do, since JACK is pretty much intended for stuff like studio feedback and mixing rather than being a general purpose application audio layer. (It's also pretty unstable and doesn't respond well to stuff like device errors or hotplug events)

That is all nice and fine, but what the fuck does it have to do with video scaling? You know that just because the GPU can help with videos it is not simply the same as a game, right?

Stuff like asynchronous compute has basically no impact on videos.

I can't configure mpv because the directory for the .conf files is empty. (No, the files are not hidden.) Weren't these files supposed to be automatically generated upon the first run?

I just tried it and it doesn't preload the files.
Is there any way to do that? Something like the following:

Files in folder: A B C D E F G and so on
I play A, it gets precached, all the other files get put into the playlist.
B is automatically precached too, if memory size permits it (maybe allow the user to designate cache size).
When file B starts playing, C gets precached - and so on.

Am I retarded or would this make some sense?

How can I change the next/prev file buttons on the OSC so that they use

write-watch-later-config

>>56450252
mpv has no ability to precache successive files whatsoever, although I've been wishing for it as well (so you could start preloading the next URL while watching e.g. a youtube playlist)

That said, you could use --merge-files to merge them all into a single big virtual file which gets cached as a single unit. Or you could just copy the files to a tmpsfs before watching

Or you could use a hard drive that isn't a massive piece of shit. Or you culd configure your hard drives correctly.

I have weird playback with autospeedwin and display-resample!
How could I solve this?

Madvr surpasses vo_opengl in terms of performance, it's a fact especially with the new gpu generation even if you use linux and official drivers. Some shills said mpv performs better when upscaling to 4k but it's probably madvr's antiringing that is quite intensive, you should avoid it in this case.
Now I know mpv/vo_opengl and madvr have different minds, vo_opengl is like a framework with bunch of options/variables where madvr is built as a commercial product with specific features.

>>56451500
madVR makes anything resource intensive, he even managed to fuck up something as simple as dithering.

You have to be fucking kidding me.

>>56451410
>>56451517
What is this mad virtual reality that people keep talking about?

>>56451499
I'm asking because when I switched from opengl-hq to opengl interpolation stopped working.

>>56451523
I'm not, he does some completly autistic error diffusion dithering algorithm in OpenCL or something

It's slow as shit, and I don't know why he does it. Dithering patterns at 8 bit are barely visible even if you lean forward and squint really hard

But being slow as shit makes the madVR users think it's better, because performance is inversely correlated to quality in the typical madVR users' mind

>>56451610
opengl-hq is just a set of pre-set configuration options for opengl, it's literally the exact same code otherwise.

(And in fact, in newer mpv versions, opengl-hq isn't even a separate VO anymore, just a built-in profile. update your shit)

>>56451622
I see, then what are configuration for low quality/weak CPU?
Opengl-old no longer exist.

>>56435441
>They removed opengl and opencl (useless for mpv) entirely from their official drivers!
But they didn't, unless you're using the Windows Update drivers that have never shipped with OpenGL support
>>56435059
debanding is substantially slower on madVR due to Pixel Shader 3.0
>>56449603
>That is all nice and fine, but what the fuck does it have to do with video scaling?
mpv is primarily texel bottlenecked, the upscaling code was analized by the #opengl IRC channel a while back and texture fetching was found to be the primary bottleneck
>You know that just because the GPU can help with videos it is not simply the same as a game, right?
>Stuff like asynchronous compute has basically no impact on videos.
Right now it's true, buy asynchronous compute might help for meme OpenCL based scalers, like NNEDI3
>>56436499
I had a AMD E3 system a while back with the same GPU, it couldn't manage opengl-hq on Windows, it did fine with plain opengl though
>>56436832
GPU decoding it's usually limited to a pair of streams at once, so you will need to CPU decode, which should bottleneck you way faster than a GPU
Due to the state of AMD OpenGL drivers I would trust Nvidia more to not fuck up in this scenario
>>56441203
meme fucks that love NNEDI3 would be much happier with warpsharp, they should recommend it more
>>56439188
Lowest end Nvidia discrete GPU should work fine, AMD lowest end should work too but drivers are a gamble unfortunately, I would expect the RX450 to be a great HTPC card if AMDGPU comes along well
>>56451611
doom9 has a history of loving ridiculously slow filters, they enjoy filtering videos at 0.02 FPS

I feel like you have to downsample NNEDI3 from 8K or 16K in order to see a benefit because I sure as shit don't see it using regular settings.

>>56451670
>debanding is substantially slower on madVR due to Pixel Shader 3.0
I doubt that's the cause, he's probably just using a significantly less efficient algorithm. (And knowing madVR, he almost surely is, because it gave him 1% improvement in synthetic tests or something)

>Right now it's true, buy asynchronous compute might help for meme OpenCL based scalers, like NNEDI3
What is asynchronous anyway? Can you explain it to me in layman's terms?

>so you will need to CPU decode, which should bottleneck you way faster than a GPU
I wouldn't claim that at all. I can decode a single typical youtube file (H.264) while using less than 1% of my CPU.

In a synthetic benchmark using ffmpeg's

-f null

I can decode it at over 1200 fps, so conversely I could decode 50 videos at the same time (assuming 24 fps for each and no memory bandwidth contention). I would argue that memory bandwidth might be the primary limiting factor here, especially RAM->VRAM upload.

I have two 1080p 60Hz monitors. I don't know if having two monitors can cause an issue, anyway I usually watch 24fps x265 files. However, this issue also occurs with x264 files as well. To be clear, mpv is not mistiming or delaying frames constantly, let's say 100-150 drops per hour of content.

>>56455965
>video-sync=display-resample

this is why

I installed mpv on Debian via apt-get install mpv, it works and I could set is as default just fine, also it works in the context menus; the problem is that if I go to all programs and type mpv on the search bar there are no results even though it is already installed. Another thing is that it stutters somewhat, I remember having this problem in Ubuntu when I installed it the same way, but I don't remember how I fixed it so it should have been something really simple like disabling hardware acceleration or something; Where are the options though?, I can't find them anywhere. For reference, I remember that in Ubuntu it did show on the search when I looked for it (and I installed it the same way). Anyone knows what's going on?

> mpv on the search bar there are no results even though it is already installed
It depends on how mpv is packaged? Ubuntu has pseudo-gui mode shortcut and it appears in search. You can create your own shortcut for it

mpv --profile=pseudo-gui

>Another thing is that it stutters somewhat,
Hardware decode is disabled by default, if your videos stutters with no config, it's possible your cpu/gpu is too weak and you should enable hardware decode eg: add --hwdec=auto

>I don't know if having two monitors can cause an issue
I only have one monitor, but on Linux/AMD with the Free Software drivers, I once accidentally enabled the wrong video output and it fucked up the timing for the correct one. Worked correctly again when I disabled it. I don't think display-sync can work correctly with multiple monitors and this hardware/drivers.

Snif there are no scripts to set a profile by video resolution. Why? Please create one. I am dying!

It was the display-resample. I removed it and it's fine now. But, I guess interpolation does not work without display-resample settings.

>>56457098
Does it work with this config only?
interpolation
video-sync=display-resample

The twitch streaming issue should be fixed in the bitbucket builds now.

>>56457188
Oh great!

>>56456969
If you're focused on the movie enough to care about frame timing you're probably not watching the other monitor, so you could turn it off then. There's probably some way to automate this when MPV is playing fullscreen video.

Sharp image without artifacts and ringing please. I basically have to wait for high frame rate video to catch on.

>>56457258
You define a blurred picture.

>>56457188
What caused the problem?
also yeah I think it's fixed, thanks a lot family.

+1*1000

>>56457363
Something in the stable ffmpeg release is fucked, git-master works fine so they seem to have fixed it.

>>56457140
For some reason the order of the interpolation and display-resample is important. Now, it's much better, I would say 80-90% less frame mistimings and delays. Thanks for the help.

>>56457563
What! You shouldn't get any vo!

Every time I play a video from a command line, I see this:

libva info: VA-API version 0.39.2
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_39
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0

what does this mean & how do I suppress this?

-q doesnt do shit btw

>>56457563
Is it better with these config?
interpolation
tscale=linear
video-sync=display-resample

or

interpolation
tscale=oversample
video-sync=display-resample

>>56457712
tscale=oversample is better. I think it's completely fixed now no vo, mistiming or delays. Thanks again.

>>56457617
VO's were really rare. Problem was mostly with mistimes and delays 100-150 times in an hour and 5-10 VO's maximum. And now it's solved.
