/mpv/ - the advanced media player

nnedi3 has to be some heavy fucking placebo. I can't see the difference unless I upscale a still image and look hard as fuck.

Why bother degrading the performance to the point where it has problems playing the video at acceptable framerates for a almost unnoticeable "improvement" in upscaling?

>>56510158
nnedi3 was never made to do real-time upscaling to 1080p+. Its original use case was for deinterlacing shit.

>>56510158
It looks very good with animes and cartoons!

>>56510158
It is literally placebo - that's how all of this works. In particular, it's why people will always think that the less efficient / slower algorithms are also somehow “better”.

This kind of moronic thinking is the reason why the whole avisynth/doom9/madVR community ends up doing dumb shit like using error diffusion dithering in realtime, in a fucking video player. (See: madVR)

Yeah well mpv has a shitty non-GUI from the 70's.

Why doesn't mpv pass the --ignore-config option to youtube-dl by default? Seems like it should since a user's youtube-dl config might conflict with the way mpv uses youtube-dl, and mpv already has options for selecting formats and passing options to youtube-dl.

It be. vo=direct3d gives me washed out colors, probably using limited colorspace. So, I used vo=opengl instead but it started crashing on me with the new version of mpv.

Is there a way to do dynamic upscaling?

If I have a 480p video and I want to watch it fullscreen mode @ 1440, it upscales the video to 1440 using whatever scaler is specified,

But what if I simply want to cheap out and upscale with 480p->720p at the best scaler and 720p->1440p for cheapest (computation) scaler

My theory is if 480p -> 1440p upscale using my best scaling method would cost quite a bit of computation time. However if the best was only used for 2x scaling and then from thereon, the lesser computation was used, wouldn't that be a good alternative?

>>56518664
>Is there a way to do dynamic upscaling?
Yes, use hooks or lua scripts (depending on what you mean by dynamic)

>But what if I simply want to cheap out and upscale with 480p->720p at the best scaler and 720p->1440p for cheapest (computation) scaler
Personally I would just pick a cheaper scaler and use that all the way. It might even be optimal to do so (think triangle inequality), but I haven't investagated that

>However if the best was only used for 2x scaling and then from thereon, the lesser computation was used, wouldn't that be a good alternative?
At 2x scaling you're not going to notice any significant differences between scalers. I don't think it will be worth the effort.

I set 0.6 for curve_height and it's less shitty!

>>56517613
Should I change the antiring value?

Are the settings in OP work fine with Livestreamer?

How do I make it so that when there's two subtitles with the same language tag ([eng] for example), mpv picks the one with "dialog" in the track name or another user-defined string rather than the first one? I'm sick of the fucking "Signs" tracks as the default ones.

Well that's just how I do things. Admittedly I am willing to go to extreme lengths in pursuit of better video quality, and am hardly bothered by having to hit a key to switch sub tracks sometimes.

I'm not too sure, but you could probably write a lua script for your purposes.
This stuff can be kinda unpredictable though. I've come across releases where the English subtitles for the Japanese audio track are tagged as Japanese.

>>56522630
If Jinc works then you should use ewa_lanczossharp, they're literally the same thing, you could try adding

opengl-backend=dxinterop
opengl-pbo
hwdec=auto-copy

x cycle-values dither ordered fruit

to your input.conf and monitor the leftmost frame timings with the stats.lua script if you have it, there are 1000μs in 1ms.

Side note you can do this with just about any option so you can easily compare scale, cscale, dscale, interpolation, hwdec, etc, with a simple key press

Here are some other examples

a cycle-values hwdec auto-copy no

v cycle interpolation
V cycle-values tscale oversample linear mitchell

x cycle-values scale ewa_lanczossharp spline36 haasnsoft bilinear
c cycle-values cscale ewa_lanczossoft spline36 haasnsoft bilinear

It will have much better driver support on Windows than OGL ever would and potentially allow for better performance.

I just notice a thing! Haasn reduced default scale-radius for haasnsoft in his config. It's maybe to reduce gpu usage. So maybe should I use ewa_lanczos and reduce scale-radius to use less GPU?

Are NVIDIA shills so delusional they don't realize AMD cards objectively have better hardware?

I just installed Debian and mpv. Video stutters (almost un-noticeable, but it does) every like 7 seconds, and there are horizontal lines of visual tearing when stuff moves suddenly. This is not exactly an mpv problem, as it happens with the default player too; also I know that it's not hardware related, because I was able to make mpv work on this same hardware in Ubuntu (had the same problem after installing, then I fixed it but I don't remember how). Is there any basic stuff that I should install on Linux to make video work smoothly?

>>56523206
You're the one who started going off like some rabid fanboy. I just said it like it is.

>>56509982
so to change settings like scale and backend for the opengl-hq profile you just add a line under profile= or do you have to add it to the profile?

You're not exactly the brightest bulb either. All your comments have consisted of "AMD IS BETTER" and "OGL SUPPORT IS TRASH ANYWAYS" and "NVIDIA SHILLS ARE DELUSIONAL".

It's honestly widely documented that Nvidia has better OGL support. It's not exactly difficult to realize that either. Whether you as an AMD fanboy want to accept the truth is entirely up to you. Now fuck off and stay pleb you goddamn poorfag.

A higher scale radius increases exponentially the texture fillrate necessary, haasn has a 7970 that barely can cope with scaling to 4K which he needs since he has a 4K monitor, that's probably why he reduced the radius
This was calculated some time ago, you can find a formula that calculates the requirements for the ewa_lanczos scaler on the archives
>>56523082
>So maybe should I use ewa_lanczos and reduce scale-radius to use less GPU?

Also, madVV's jinc is ewa_lanczos not ewa_lanczossharp

ewa_lanczos is 3 taps, ewa_lanczossharp is ~3.22 taps by default. madVR can only handle integer numbers of taps

There's actually one reason that vulkan could be particularly interesting: It, in theory, supports asynchronously rendering something to an FBO texture while painting something else to the screen.

This would allow display-sync to become nearly free (unlike now, where it basically forces the framerate from 24 Hz to 60 Hz), among other potential benefits.

The main blocker to vulkan being implemented right now is concern for GLSL->SPIR-V translation. I don't really want to invest hours and hours only to find out that third party GLSL compilers suck.

>>56523167
Not him, he's pretty much accurate. WGL will always suck because of Microsoft, and ANGLE/dxinterop both have performance or stability hits. Both driver vendors are shit.

When you actually start developing GPU software you pretty quickly relaize that all driver vendors are pretty much on the same level of complete shittiness.

BT.2020 is wider than necessary, though - it's basically meant to be as wide as possible (i.e. presenting an “ultimate goal” for displays to achieve), even if 99% of the colors you're going to see in nature and record on film fit into smaller colorspaces like AdobeRGB.

1. Sum up how many texture fetches you need to do to render a single frame
2. Divide this by the amount of texture fetches your GPU can perform per second (quoted as GT/s)
3. You now know how long it takes to render a frame

It's not like his builds are bad. It's just that Lach's is the standard build and Shin's has better performance.

No, the radius determines how many taps are used (i.e. how wide the filter is)

>>56528441
Did anyone try this:
scale=ewa_lanczos
scale-radius=2

Does it use less gpu than scale=ewa_lanczos?
Now is it better than spline36?

>>56528538
It's significantly more GPU efficient (16 samples instead of 36 so you can expect performance to double)

However, it comes at the cost of aliasing - 2 tap filters are much worse than 3 tap filters when it comes to diagonal lines and stuff. spline36 or lanczos uses only 12 samples though so it will be even more efficient than ewa_lanczos2, and will probably end up looking better as well.

Compare them and report back, I guess.

>>56514478
>no interpolation
Interpolation is a partial workaround for incorrect refresh rate. It is actively harmful if your monitor is configured correctly.

>>56528580
So maybe scale-radius=2.5?
I will make some tests later.
I just think about it. If spline36 is too sharp maybe should I just increase default scale-blur...

>>56528859
lanczos/ewa_lanczos is going to be sharper than spline36

>>56528909
Are you sure ewa_lanczos is sharper than spline36? I think I don't identify sharpen like you, maybe it's aliasing...

File: comparison.png (165KB, 600x800px) Image search: [Google]

165KB, 600x800px

>>56528958
Well, to be honest they're pretty much nearly identical when it comes to sharpen. The ‘spline’ filter is technically an approximation of the ideal lanczos filter, after all. (But it's faster to compute, which doesn't matter for us because we use a LUT anyway)

For me, sharpness pretty much means ringing - the sharper a filter is, the more exaggerated the ringing on a dark-light edge will be.

Here's an image comparing spline36 (top) with ewa_lanczos (bottom). You can see that the amount of ringing (black/white fringes around the gray borders and where the black horizontal line meets the green circle) is pretty much the same.

However, spline36 has much worse aliasing - i.e. those stairstep-like artifacts you see around the edges of the circles

>>56529042
Btw, it's worth noting that spline36 will dering better (being an orthogonal filter) than ewa_lanczos will, so if you want to get rid of some of those excessive ringing artifacts you could use spline36 or lanczos with antiringing enabled.

Personally I'm bothered by aliasing much more than by ringing though.

>>56529042
>>56529060
Ok now I am sure it's aliasing that annoys me the most and it seems jinc based scalers work better here.

>>56529060
Euh is it possible that scale-antiring produces aliasing?!!! And are there some false positives by removing non-ringing artefacts? Bah I will avoid antiring option because it's too experimental!

Is it possible to cycle whole mpv.conf files with keyboard?

>>56529517
No, but soon-ish you might be able to toggle profiles at runtime

>>56529392
>Euh is it possible that scale-antiring produces aliasing?!!!
For EWA algorithms yes, it can also cause all sorts of other problems because the antiringing kernel is too small and square compared to the filter itself.

For tensor filters it's not a probably beacuse they're square already..

>>56529552
Oh great that's even more smarter!

>>56529564
Now I want to get rid of ringing.
I didn't know what it was some hours ago. :D

Is there some way to adjust variables in user shaders at runtime?

>>56529652
I think you can't!
But you probably can ;) with lua scripting and text parsing with regex to change shader values.

>>56529564
>not a probably
not a problem*

>>56529652
No. Should there be?

>>56529784
Wouldn't that require recompiling the shader each time?

>>56529806
There should be, because lots of shaders eg. sharpening, are configured according to personal preference. It's much faster to find the best setting if you can adjust them in real time from the MPV UI.

>>56529824
And then when you've found the best settings you can hard code it into the shader for less GPU load.

>>56529652
Or maybe there is already a way to expose some shader variables to the mpv.conf like script-opts but I don't see something like that in the manual.

>>56529824
>Wouldn't that require recompiling the shader each time?
It would. In theory you would use a uniform for this sort of thing, but user shaders don't get access to them. I could add support but I can't think of a good interface for it.

>>56529875

I unironically think mpv is easier to use and configure than any other player. It's just so simple to type a few lines in a .conf file instead of spending several minutes in a GUI.

And I'm a Windows user.

>>56529960
>yeah keep telling yourselft that
Just looking at the first element of that screenshot, it seems that MPDN lets you:

1. Pick from a static list of kernel/window combinations
2. Pick from a static list of taps
3. Turn anti-ringing on or off
4. Configure the anti-ringing strength

Let's compare this to what mpv lets you do:

1. Choose from a list of built-in kernel/window presets, including:
>bilinear / triangle
>bicubic / bicubic_fast
>oversample, nearest / box
>spline16/36/64
>sinc and derivatives (lanczos, ginseng)
>jinc and derivatives (ewa_lanczos/sharp/soft, ewa_hanning, ewa_ginseng, haasnsoft)
>bcspline and derivatives (mitchell, robidoux/sharp, catmull_rom, also EWA variants)
>gaussian

2. Fine-tune the parameters (B/C spline coordinates, gaussian sigma parameter, oversample threshold, etc.)

3. Fine-tune the kernel's width (i.e. number of taps). you can pick any floating point number including odd taps like 3.22 (jinc's third zero, optimal cutoff)

4. Customize the stretch factor for the kernel (makes it blurrier or sharper)

5. Pick a custom window function from a list of available windows:
>box
>triangle
>bartlett
>hanning
>hamming
>quadric
>welch
>kaiser
>blackman
>gaussian
>sinc
>jinc
>sphinx

6. Fine-tune the window parameter for tunable windows. (alpha parameter for kaiser/blackman, gaussian sigma parameter)

7. Configure the size of the LUT used for caching scaler functions (2D LUT for tensor scalers, 1D LUT for EWA scalers)

8. Turn on anti-ringing and configure the strength

9. Configure the x offset and slope of the sigmoidization function through which the weights are transformed during convolution

I really mean it when I say that no other video player even scratches the surface of the number of variables and tunables that mpv exposes to the user. Your drop-down menus aren't impressing anyone.

VLC has never provided any sorts of competition whatsoever. The player is a laughing stock at best. There's no competitive drive to beat VLC.

There *was* a competitive drive to beat madVR back in the days, for example - because madVR was much better than mpv when it first started (giving birth to stuff like jinc and antiringing).

That has mostly died down though since mpv has essentially reached feature parity with // surpassed madVR. There's no competitive drive right now..

>Custom Linear Scalers
These custom linear scalers extend MPDN by adding Sinc-Blackman, Gaussian etc. scaling options. If there's a new scaler you want to add, give it a kernel function and MPDN will do the rest. The same custom scalers can also be used in the EWA scaler (via Render Script).

>Render Scripts
Render Scripts are quite similar to AviSynth scripts and plugins except they run fully on the GPU. You can script Render Scripts in a similar fashion to AviSynth with a C# syntax, or an AviSynth-like syntax with the full power of JavaScript behind it. As opposed to madVR's mostly closed source nature, MPDN's Render Scripts are fully open source and are hosted on GitHub.

Yes MPDN is also and advanced media player too but some of its algorithms are quite less efficient than mpv ones. However it has OpenCL support that works pretty well with 6+ year-old hardware on Windows but I think it's because MPDN is older than mpv, at least its closed source code.

However MPDN suffers of its GUI because some of its algorithms are useless but they keep them because they didn't want to remove GUI code and mess all the player with retarded bugs! At least mpv has an opengl-hq profile that prevents fags of doing shits. Furthermore there is less and less release of MPDN because they have no time to develop it and because they wanted to recreate some shit with newer technologies like DX12 or UWP but refactoring shits is time consuming. It's almost the same with mpv and vulkan.

>>56530333
>>56530351
Sorry, but mpv surpasses everything you mentioned there with even more options, yes that's insane! But yes, it's less noticeable because mpv has a minimal and perfect graphic interface so you can feel its power!

>mpv has an opengl-hq profile that prevents fags of doing shits
opengl-hq is bad because it enables deband-grain which is ugly and useless (deband already adds noise because of the randomized texture sampling)

>>56530941
Still better than without it!

>>56530957
Deband is necessary when playing 8bit/channel source material in non-native colorspace (which is always in the case of computer monitors), but default deband-grain is always worse than deband-grain=0. deband-grain=0 should be the default.

Heh, this actually gets me curious:

In mpv, each linear kernel is represented with no more than this amount of code (shown here is gaussian)

static double gaussian(params *p, double x)
{
    return exp(-2.0 * x * x / p->params[0]);
}

...

    {{"gaussian",       2,   gaussian, .params = {1.0, NAN}, .resizable = true}},

I wonder: How much C# boilerplate garbage does MPDN use per scaler?

>>56530362

And mpv can use vdpaupp hqscaling (which is essentially the same thing); which is also completely pointless because it's just a shittier bicubic that also required using hardware decoding..

mpv also supports this..

Seriously, are you just quoting some sort of feature list from a homepage or something? Your wording makes it sound like an advertisement. Can you at least put in the effort to filter out the irrelevant bits or better yet, only list stuff that mpv *doesn't* have?...

>>56530351

>>56528813
No. I have a 120hz monitor and watching 24fps content with interpolation on is considerably smoother.

>>56531842
>considerably smoother
You mean considerably blurrier. It's the temporal equivalent of those disgusting blur filters people use with emulators. I can understand using SVP type motion sensitive interpolation, but just blending frames only harms motion quality. The only excuse for using it is when your monitor won't sync to an integer multiple of your frame rate.

>>56528813
>>56531842
This, interpolation helps even for integer framerate multiples

Check this series of clips for an example

This is a 20 Hz sample
https://github.com/haasn/interpolation-samples/blob/master/20fps/nearest.mkv

And this is a 24 Hz sample with (linear) interpolation
https://github.com/haasn/interpolation-samples/raw/master/24fps/linear.mkv

Obviously I can't do a direct comparison between 24 Hz native and 24 Hz interpolation in a 60 Hz test clip, and I'm still missing a 20 Hz with interpolation test clip, but 24 Hz with interpolation will give you a reasonable enough approximation.

You can clearly and immediately see that it completely changes the video, from a stuttering, eye-melting pan up to a much more smooth version.

And also for reasons of simplicity I used linear interpolation (which is pretty bad) here rather than something like bicubic which makes the pan even smoother and reduces some of the discontinuouties/fringes you see.

>>56531972
See how shit the butterfly looks in the interpolated version. With such low framerates (and all common video framerates are low), you can't just resample in the time axis, you effectively have temporal pixel art. You have so few samples that nearest is the best you can do, just like spatial resampling of pixel art.

>>56532116
It just looks a bit more blurry? You get used to it incredibly fast.

I can't watch content without interpolation at all anymore, gives me a headache. But feel free to suit yourself. Personally, I'm going with the option that lets me actually watch content instead of having to take a break every 2 minutes to let my eyes relax from the stutter.

>>56532193
You're doing the temporal equivalent of people who blur their emulators because they think it's an acceptable way to hide dithering. Just like the dithering is a limitation of the original source, so is the low framerate a limitation of the original source. Blurring can hide it, but at the cost of making everything blurry. The cure is worse than the disease.

Low framerate panning represents smooth movement, just like dithering represents intermediate colors. They are only symbolic, they are not intended to be realistic. If you want to make them more realistic there are smarter ways than indiscriminately blurring everything.

>>56531938
>>56532267
When will you realize that some people don't mind it being blurry? Jesus christ fucking faggots these days.

>>56532267
I don't give a shit about your “temporal equivalents”, that's not how it works. Low framerate videos give me a headache. Pixel art does not.

Pixel art looks better with nearest neighbour scaling.
Low-FPS garbage looks better with interpolation

deal with it

i only watch i-frames, everything else is basically fan fiction

>>56532267
>they are not intended to be realistic.
It's not about having more realistic motion as many people using interpolation can't stand watching native 60Hz videos. It's about having an alternative presentation

>>56532493
>It's not about having more realistic motion as many people using interpolation can't stand watching native 60Hz videos. It's about having an alternative presentation
What the shit? No way, 60 Hz is clearly significantly superior to anything accomplishable through interpolation and I would pay money to make all the content I ever watch in my life from now on 60 Hz or higher. It's literally so amazingly smooth compared to garbage shit tier 24 Hz..

I can't fathom who would use interpolation but *not* like native 60 Hz

>>56532493
>many people using interpolation can't stand watching native 60Hz
I can't understand what crazy thought process could result in this. Native 60fps is strictly better than interpolated lower fps. The whole point of interpolation is a (misguided) attempt to fake the appearance of a higher framerate.

>>56532539
How is it misguided if it works?

>>56532580
In the same way that blurring pixel art "works" to hide dithering.

Only motion-aware interpolation is good, and it's hard to do it well in real time.

>>56532615
Okay? What are you trying to accomplish? Telling me that I should turn off interpolation and watch stuttery garbage like god intended, while taking aspirin by the spoonful to combat the headaches?

You are probably overreacting to something you're simply not used to and therefore the artifacts look weird to you. But go turn on interpolation and use it for a month and you will be physically incapable of turning it back off again. I promise.

Would motion-adaptive interpolation be better? Probably, but its nonlinearity will also cause much more severe artifacts (warped image content) whereas the linear afterimages you get from linear interpolation are basically the same as you already get from liquid crystal response time, and it works absolute wonders for pans.

As long as the pan isn't too aggressive, it basically looks indistinguishable from a true 60 Hz pan for me. I noticed this while watching some anime the other day and I basically had to constantly marvel at how smooth the pans looked, to the point where it would pull me out of the narrative because I was just so impressed.

Does it work well for action? No, it won't turn your hollywood garbage into 60 Hz beauty. But it the artifacts it causes are also not NEARLY as bad as you seem to be making it out to be. So stop telling people what they're doing is “wrong” just because you don't like it. That's fucking autism man

>SVP

>>56532791
This picture is more than one year old, I hope they improve this.
I think there is a mode/profile for animes now.

>>56532875
SVP has been around for many many years and the algorithm hasn't really changed, they only do performance improvements from what I can tell.

The “profiles” they sell to you (literally) are just MVTools configuration presets. (Friendly reminder that SVP is a scum project that illegally sells code that they stole from open source projects. They don't even design the algorithms, they just steal it all from open source projects, put it on kickstarter, and get thousands of dollars from idiots)

Anyway, you are absolutely not going to get content-adaptive motion interpolation without severe artifacting. At best, you can turn down the settings to where it will basically not interpolate, but then it will also not look like 60 fps so you're defeating the point. (This is what the ultra-low-artifact anime presets essentially do. It'll interpolate continuous pans but that's about it)

The “smoother” you want the motion to be, the more artifacts you will get. Simple as that. Only way to avoid it is getting a 60 Hz source.

>>56532977
Are you insinuating they sell dreams?
The only noticeable artefact for me is the camcorder effect.

>>56510972
It often doesn't backtrack when seeking to build a correct frame from previous information (video codecs store differences between frames to make them efficient to store) so it looks like that.

>>56532977
With no high framerate source available, the next best option would be something like time-axis waifu2x. Probably would not work well for live action because of all the variety of shutter timings, but might work for anime. And you could spatially waifu2x it too if you're going to non-realtime process the video.

You could easily solve this with a small script in shell script or Python that will create folders and move the files whenever invoked.

You can even make it do it for series instead of episodes as long as your episode files follow scene name conventions like the ones in the screenshot: [fansub] Series - XX [res].

Anyway, I just tried out svp4 to see how 60fps interpolated was like.

I had to turn off gpu acceleration otherwise my system locked up.

mpv works well with older hardware too, I run it on a Intel 945G, madVR and MPDN don't even work at all on this (though mpv doesn't on Windows, but it runs fine on GNU/Linux)
Though sometimes OpenCL support is better than OpenGL support drivers wise, specially on AMD hardware, that's why Nvidia beats AMD cards at NNEDI3 on mpv but loses terribly on MPDN/madVR
>but I think it's because MPDN is older than mpv, at least its closed source code.
mpv's heritage can be traced back to early 2000's, it's a fork of mplayer

It was also a corrupt/bad file iirc

So, what is the consensus on interpolation?

How can I activate it?

video-sync=display-resample and then
interpolation

Is this it? And which option is best?

bilinear
bicubic
ewa_lanczos
oversample
nearest

>>56533858
If your monitor will not sync to an integer multiple of the frame rate, interpolation is better than nothing. But many monitors will sync to refresh rates not reported in the EDID, so try it first. eg:

$ cvt 1920 1080 50
# 1920x1080 49.93 Hz (CVT 2.07M9) hsync: 55.62 kHz; pclk: 141.50 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080_50.00"  141.50  1920 2032 2232 2544  1080 1083 1088 1114 -hsync +vsync
$ sudo xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_50.00"  141.50  1920 2032 2232 2544  1080 1083 1088 1114 -hsync +vsync
$ # Replace DVI-0 with your output port name (check xrandr with no arguments)
$ sudo xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1920x1080_50.00
$ # Default mode emergency backup!
$ xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1920x1080
$ # Test 50Hz mode
$ xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1920x1080_50.00
$ # If it didn't sync, press up to recovery emergency backup mode from history
$ # You do this blind, so pay attention

>>56533858
>So, what is the consensus on interpolation?
There is none.
>How can I activate it?
>video-sync=display-resample and then
>interpolation
>Is this it?
Pretty much
And which option is best?
Whichever one looks best to you

>>56533858
Any tscale other than oversample will aliviate the stuter caused by 24fps. The least blurry is tscale=linear. The most blurry is probably bicubic or gaussian. If you're planning on using oversample you can ignore interpolation entirely if you can set your screen to an integer multiple of the framerate of the video

>>56533929
Is there any way that I can test this on Windows?

>>56533936
Okay, thanks.

>>56533987
>Is there any way that I can test this on Windows?
You can add custom refresh rates using your GPU driver configuration panel, or using CRU (Custom Resolution Utility)
xrandr.lua only works on GNU/Linux, so you will have to use autospeedwin

>>56533987
A long time ago, I used a program called Powerstrip. It seems it still exists, maybe it will work.

>>56533929
You're basically saying that nearest is the best tscale

>>56534165
Actually oversample is the best tscale, because it is the same as nearest when your monitor is configured correctly, but it still helps to hide incorrectly configured monitors.

>>56533858
mitchell

I am confused now. So, interpolation is necessary only if my display refresh rate and the fps of the file are not matched. If, they are matched then there is no need for interpolation, right?

>>56534277
It depends on which you hate more: blur or stutter.

>>56534326
I hate stutter. So, what the fuck am I supposed to do? Just underclock my monitor's refresh rate to the movie's fps?

>>56534326
And note that stutter is not the same as judder, which is never acceptable.

>>56534351
>Just underclock my monitor's refresh rate to the movie's fps?
If you hate stutter than turn on interpolation

end of story

>>56534351
On a sample and hold display, an integer multiple of the framer rate is exactly the same as the native frame rate.

The real problem here is that 24fps is shit. There's no good solution, although there are some objectively bad solutions (eg. non-integer ratio + no interpolation for worst of both worlds).

All you can do is watch various types of content (traditional film, modern short exposure digital cinema, anime) and various scenes (pans, action, talking), and see what you prefer.
