What happened to mpv?
opengl-hq is a low preset, profiles instead of VO, ewa_lanczossharp is recommended and the mpv.config is redundant.
And now it suggest to disable ad-blocks on soundforge.
Fucking SOUNDFORGE.

Yes, mpv threads are now a wincuck threads.

>>56758860
Because unless you are running some bleeding edge shit, the youtube-dl version on your distro's repos are most likely outdated. The devs even recommend to install youtube-dl through pip on their website.

For OS X it is highly recommended to use pip to install the latest version of youtube-dl. For Windows you can download the exe from their site, or just use pip.

>>56758885
0.20 is 29 days old, the commit that changed the way profiles were handled is newer than that. So yes, it is old and that's why it doesn't work.

>>56758922

Not necessarily, pip are outdated sometimes as well.
And the dev recommends this

nvidia had HW 10bit HEVC decoding since 9xx
intel will have it with kaby lake

so how does one enable HW 10bit HEVC decoding in MPV with nvidia or intel (skylake has 8bit hw decoding)?

>>56759224
>The Arch User Repository (AUR) is a community-driven repository for Arch users. It contains package descriptions (PKGBUILDs) that allow you to compile a package from source with makepkg and then install it via pacman. The AUR was created to organize and share new packages from the community and to help expedite popular packages' inclusion into the community repository. This document explains how users can access and utilize the AUR. A good number of new packages that enter the official repositories start in the AUR. In the AUR, users are able to contribute their own package builds (PKGBUILD and related files). The AUR community has the ability to vote for or against packages in the AUR. If a package becomes popular enough — provided it has a compatible license and good packaging technique — it may be entered into the community repository (directly accessible by pacman or abs).

Just in case this is serious, I'd like to clarify that mpv devs don't get any ad revenue from SourceForge. The guy who makes those builds (shinchiro) doesn't even get the ad revenue.

Also SourceForge is a garbage website that doesn't deserve your ad revenue. There are better websites for hosting FOSS binaries (GitHub, Bintray.) Don't use SourceForge.

What do people mean by "KCP is dead"?
Why does it need to be updated?

>>56760711
Maintenance in software development is very important. Video decoding, subtitle rendering and so on are changing all the time. Mpv is currently the player that supports the most of them.
It includes bunch of exclusive features, most of them are only noticeable for videophiles.

I'm new to Linux. How do I create a config file for mpv? A config doesn't exist by default right? Because I can't find it. Going into .config/mpv and creating mpv.conf doesn't do anything. All I want to do is make it borderless and the command mpv --no-border doesn't work either.

>>56761223
You're late.
mpv is windows application now.

>>56761223
.config/mpv should work

mkdir -p ~/.config/mpv/ && echo no-border > ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf

>>56761223
>A config doesn't exist by default right?
You usually copy a sample config file from /usr/share/doc/ to your .config and edit on it. mpv deb packaging has it on /usr/share/doc/mpv/mpv.conf.gz, you can extract it from there

>mpv --no-border doesn't work either
Not all window managers support that, but most linux ones should.

>>56761390

It worked, thanks.

>>56761390
Why no-border? It seems to be very regarded!

Each time I tried a linux distro, the environment was always blinky.
I tried all the desktop environments included tiling ones.
I use only foss and I am feeling bad to use windows.
I have never got a smooth startup, the screen went black multiple times before going to the desktop. Furthermore I noticed that firefox and chrome are slightly slower to render the pages.

I would like to set different profile for 480p, 720p, 1080p and 2160p videos.

How do I make it so that the player opens up videos on the center of the screen? Currently it opens up in the opposite corner of wherever my video folder window is. I'm using Xubuntu so this is probably something that could be resolved by messing around with the window manager. But is it possible to force it to open up in the center using some mpv config command?

Nothing. The question you should be asking is “what the fuck happened to these threads”

>profiles instead of VO,
This was a significant change for the better. It gives you much more configuration power, lets you change VO options at runtime, and no longer requires you to hard-code a 200-character-line into your config file

>nvidia had HW 10bit HEVC decoding since 9xx
Only the GTX 950 and GTX 960. The GTX 970, 980 etc. do not have HEVC decoding.

>so how does one enable HW 10bit HEVC decoding in MPV with nvidia or intel (skylake has 8bit hw decoding)?
--hwdec=cuda with nvidia

(No idea about intel)

>>56763280
>lets you change VO options at runtime
What?
you mean like a keybind?

>>56759389
If you have a PC with a GTX 1070, your CPU is guarantede to be significantly more than powerful enough to decode HEVC 10-bit anime.

Hardware decoding is only meaningful for phones and tablest, or in case you want to watch 100 Mbps 4K 10-bit 60 Hz test clips

>>56760494
A cross-platform graphics API. It is the successor to OpenGL and the spiritual successor to Mantle.

It's roughly equivalent to Direct3D 12 and Metal

>>56761223
If --no-border doesn't work, then a config file won't help either.

As for why it doesn't work, things are bit.. special on Linux, because of window managers all being special snowflakes. I don't even know what mechanism mpv uses to signal no-border on Linux, but your window manager probably outright ignores it.

It would help to name your window manager and then maybe also gooogle “<wm name> borderless”

>>56761827
Sounds like missing/bad graphics drivers or something. At least name your GPU and driver version.

>>56763358
Honestly from the sounds of it he might not have specified a file to play with --no-border and assumed that simply

mpv --no-border

would set the config file.

> tfw I never know if I should watch movies with tscale=oversample or tscale=mitchell

Life's suffering. LCDs already adds a bunch of blur due to their nature. Using interpolation adds even more blur. However, if I use oversample than panning scenes are extremely stuttery due to the low framerate. I can't watch a single video/movie without constantly thinking about this. I focus almost entirely in the stuttering and blur.

>>56768410

>>56768435

>>56764605

>>56769870
Crossbilateral and nnedi3 are both memes. nnedi3 is stupidly expensive, was made for deinterlacing, and is really only noticeable on really low resolution (<720p) sources.

That being said, if you want a benchmark:
I can barely do 64 neuron nnedi3 + CrossBilateral (this is about as expensive as ewa_lanczossharp) on 480p sources with a 1060 on a 1440p monitor.

CrossBilateral is hardly noticeable compared to ewa_lanczossharp on anything that doesn't require at least a 2x enlargement.

Instead of buying an overly expensive GPU for NNEDI3 it would be better to port it to a compute shader or something and use SIMD instead. It could be like 10x as fast as it currently is

This is probably a stupid question, but is there a way to see what size mpv scales the video part of the window to?

So if I have a file that's 704x480, but the par makes it 704x528 because it's anamorphic. I like to play in full screen with autofit 100%x100%, so I get a 1440p tall video frame with some black bars. This is normal.

I can get 704x480 from video-params/w and h, and 704x528 from video-params/dw and dh. Is there any property that gives me {video frame without the black bars} x 1440? osd-width and osd-height just give me 2560x1440.

It doesn't surprise me. ANGLE is under heavy development like mpv

>>56768410
I would just stick to oversample. With that you can at least clearly see the individual frames. Consider the low framerate an artistic choice. If they wanted that to be smooth they could've done that, but they didn't and so the artist's vision is stuttery.
If you blur it, it's still not really smooth and you can't even see the individual frames well.

Is there a way to add new videos to the end of the videos being played without interrupting the current playback?

>>56768410
If you watch shit in 2.5 speed, it'll be nice and silky smooth 60 fps.

1) Did mpv kill the DS stack aka mpc-hc/lav/madvr/reclock?
2) Where to download this mpv based player?
3) Why shouldn't I use a mpv based player over the original one?

If my memory serves correctly, there was this configuration that turned the controller from oval to a rectangle, anyone has the code;

This is something wm4 is currently developing as a user script, you can find it here: https://github.com/wm4/mpv-scripts/blob/master/auto-profiles.lua
It is still in development and currently there are thoughts about some profile group stuff etc., so make sure to update the script _and_ mpv to the latest master at the same time.

Read the instructions in the script carefully.
Basically, it allows you to write lua expressions in mpv.conf profiles as profile-desc (by starting the description with "cond:"). When the expression evaluates to true the profile is applied.
The nice thing: you can use all properties (and therefore also all mpv options) as variables by using them like p.name (or p["name"] -- lua table syntax) or by using the function get("name", default-value) (like haasn does).
The expressions get re-evaluated when the properties change.

A few examples:

[hard]
profile-desc=cond:p.height <= 720
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
cscale= ewa_lanczossoft
deband=yes


[mid]
profile-desc=cond:p.height > 720 and p.height < 2160
scale=spline36
cscale= spline36
deband=yes


[low]
profile-desc=cond:p.height >= 2160
scale=bilinear
cscale=bilinear
deband=no

or

[aaa]
profile-desc=cond:p.play_time % 2 == 0
volume=50

[bbb]
profile-desc=cond:p.play_time % 2 == 1
volume=100

NOTE: at the start of script evaluation some properties (like video related data) are not available and therefore the script prints error messages for expressions using these. However, this doesn't matter as they get re-evaluated once the property is available. It's just visual clutter. Using the function get() with a default value instead of the p. syntax prevents this. It's really just a visual thing though.

>>56775510
Disclaimer: I just typed these example profiles down without testing them, so there might be errors. But you get the general idea.

>>56773666
Holy shit how fucked up over-complicated is this.
This is worse than code monkey level. Hardcoded numbers, copy&pasted code and all of this for completely uninteresting information?

So I have a 1080p screen and I'm watching a 60fps youtube video that goes all the way to 4K. My cpu can't handle 60fps 4K and the gpu doesn't have any hwdec for vp9 (h264 version of the video is only 30fps)

Is it better to watch at 1440p instead and let mpv downscale to 1080p, or should I watch the video directly at 1080p?

I get Cannot Index Into A Null Array when trying to run the updater for mpv.

How do we write path in mpv.conf for windows ?

Is it :
opengl-shaders=".\shaders\[...]"
or :
opengl-shaders="./shaders/[...]"

>>56777659
"~~/shaders/[...]"

>>56777659
user-shaders="C:\Users\[name]\AppData\Roaming\mpv\shaders\adaptive-sharpen-2pass.glsl"

That's how I do it

>>56777081
For youtube/other streaming content it's always better to choose the best quality option, with downscaled 1440p content you will likely see much less compression artifacts.

My shitty GPU is almost 3x more powerful with Windows and Angle than with Ubuntu and Mesa. Linux is so miserable these days, that's truly the end of traditional distributions.

>>56778473
no, it's just you retarded
mesa is very poorly optimized yet

>>56778473
>traditional distributions.
What do you mean? Does it work better on other distros?

>>56778473
>My shitty GPU is almost 3x more powerful with Windows and Angle
What about dxinterop?

>>56778499
Mesa is a dumb shit and using proprietary drivers is just like using Windows.

>>56778523
Dxinterop doesn't work at all!

>>56778508
https://distrowatch.com

>>56778553
>Dxinterop doesn't work at all!
if you're talking about hwdec it works with dxva2

>>56778650
The backend doesn't work with my GPU!

>>56773037
That would be very easy to change, if code exists that would use it

>>56773677
The condition isn't built into mpv, it's done via a user script (for now).

Whats the best build for Linux?

>>56773746
>>56773891
Google needs ANGLE to be fast for chrome. (They write chrome in OpenGL and translate it to Direct3D at runtime so it can run on wangblows)

>>56773677
You would need a new option in mpv but the way it (currently) works it is an external lua script parsing the content of an existing option (profile-desc).
Why don't you suggest your idea either on IRC or with an issue in the repo?

>>56778845
What you're saying is that Chrome will use Vulkan soon.

>>56778473
If you're on nvidia, install the nvidia proprietary drivers

If you're on AMD, uninstall your life

>>56778909
Who knows. I don't think vulkan is mature enough for chrome yet, though

>>56778964
Also, I shudder at the possibility of web browsers using vulkan. Vulkan is a security nightmare.

>>56778953
see >>56778685
he is on Intel

>>56778978
Oh, so his GPU can be safely discarded then

Is this good for animu?

vo=opengl-hq:backend=x11:scale=ewa_lanczossharp:cscale=ewa_lanczossharp:temporal-dither:interpolation:blend-subtitles=yes

And which one should I add from these:

#dscale=mitchell:tscale=oversample:scaler-resizes-only:dither-depth=auto
#swapinterval=1:correct-downscaling:sigmoid-upscaling:pbo:deband

>>56778973
>Also, I shudder at the possibility of web browsers using vulkan. Vulkan is a security nightmare.

Please tell me more I want to know about this. Just don't link me some PDF made by Harvard or someshit.

>>56779631
How about you actually sit down and read the manual/options instead of blindly copying settings from other people you dumb fucking bitch.

>>56779661
?

>>56779698
Rude

>>56779631
You should update your mpv before anything else

>>56779698
That will involve tinkering which takes more time. It's better to start from a standard config of what anime viewers use and then experiment from there. It's better that way.

>>56779702
He wants some mainstream compatible worded facts he can use among his friends to impress them. Simple hard facts, nothing deep and please without any effort on his part.

I have 0.20, latest release on debian.

>>56779732
>It's better that way.
No. It moves some of the time you have to invest to other people, so you'll save time because other people invest time.
That's the only difference.

>>56779769
>I have 0.20, latest release on debian.
That's a month old already which is quite a lot in mpv land.

>>56779778
Wow, so you can read. That's a start. Unfortunately, your argumentative skills are lacking. Your post isn't really saying anything in contradiction. Saving time is better and that was the intention of the post. Of course by better, I mean better for myself. But then again, it'd take less time for someone to give in their 2 cents then it would be to do some reading. Besides, I already did reading for the options in the first part of the post (the ones that dind't have a # because they weren't comments in the config file). I simply wanted confrimation from others who used these same settings.

>>56779852
Well, for a start, the sub-option syntax you are using will be deprecated in the next release, was changed some time ago.
So you better not stick with this in the first place.

Do I even need to set a preset or is default fine? If I do then how do I set one?

>>56780406
You don't need to but when you have the necessary hardware why not use it by using some more demanding options?

It seems madshi will atomize mpv again.
When will the mpv developer do the same, aka creating new algorithms?

What is this?

How can you even cycle values between shaders, that doesn't even look right.
>haasnsoft
lmao

>>56781359
>It seems madshi will atomize mpv again.
When has he ever done so? Oh you mean atomize the performance of his "algorithms" in madvr yeah I gotcha now.

>>56781493
Sourceforge builds are the best, go fuck yourself.

>>56781606
>what is this?

Some(all?) mpeg youtube videos won't play without that. I have only stumbled upon one myself though.

>>56780406
Honestly, setting up an input.conf is more essential.

>>56781718
That and it always defaults to 1280x720@30fps

>>56781698

- anti-bloating with super-xbr, sharpeners, ...
- source ringing remover

>>56781698
Don't be so arrogant little pajeet.

>>56774426
I ask this question pretty regularly and never get a response. This is some pretty basic usability stuff. I can't believe mpv has no solution for this.

>>56781698
don't respond to the shitty troll, please

he's in every single mpv thread trying to instigate some sort of “mpv vs madVR war”. I don't get it. He posts weak bait attacking both, constantly

>>56782159
It's possible. See the

loadfile FILE append

command

>>56781606
>use ewa_lanczossharp instead on a 4k youtube video, and tell me how it goes
Adds about ~5ms to render frame timings, I still stay under 20ms total 90% of the time, in a lot of circumstances it adds too much noticeable ringing for my liking and can make aliasing more noticeable, mitchell in my opinion is superior visually and is less expensive

>>[protocol!=http_dash_segments]
>What is this?
Dash playback can help with buffering

>How can you even cycle values between shaders, that doesn't even look right.
You can cycle values with pretty much any option with the way the new config files work, in real time, it's useful for comparing scaling options and shaders and how they affect your render timings

>>haasnsoft
>lmao
Just testing, I find it too soft

>>56774426
>>56782159
The non-autistic way to do it is hold shift and drag and drop a file or a URL.

Got latest mpv, getting error parsing when all that it's in the config is exactly what the OP has when it comes to high preset.

>>56782476
you don't have latest mpv then
