Kek. Enjoy your reply.

>>56956570
mpv works with yt-dl, unlike mpc-hc

opengl is objectively better than your directx bullshit

mpv has native hwdec as well, on all OS's

>>56956499
I am such a l33t h4k0rrr I don't even need a gui! I will just pause using a command line

>>56956613
I pause with mpv by using the pause button or the spacebar...just like on mpc-hc

Stay retarded.

>>56956613
I just "installed" it on Windows to try it out, I don't need CLI.

Seems comfy, pretty minimalistic, though I fail to see a reason to use it over MPC

>>56956459

>>56956175
Do mpv support updates and subtitles out of the box?

wait until you pair it with youtube-dl to use it to play all your web video with a right click

>>56956915

mpv plays pretty much every web video if you configure it with your browser.

Well AV1 is coming next year and MPC-HC is dead so you won't be able to play it. Enjoy.

>Once available, YouTube expects to transition to AV1 as quickly as possible, particularly for video configurations such as UHD, HDR, and high frame rate videos where the codec is expected to deliver significant bandwidth savings over VP9

Can you name some content that will not play on MPC-HC? Didn't think so.

>>56958880
It's not being developed so eventually you will have to switch to another player.

>>56958898
The blu-ray standard is h264 and it will be as long as blu-ray exists. My movies will keep playing fine regardless if it's being developed or not.

Already moved over to mpv. On my Windows machine anyway, was always on mpv on muh Linux.

Speaking of playing Youtube video; why are browsers so goddamn shit at playing them?

>>56959043
What are you talking about? Firefox plays 4k@60fps without dropping a single frame.

>>56959043
Assuming you have enough RAM, it's because you never close the browser (keep your computer on in hibernate or just on period), use the caches, and open too many tabs. After I stopped doing those things, the issue went away.

AV1 is a joke that won't exist for another ~5 years, if ever. If the patent holders of HEVC agree to come together, or the video industry feels it simply needs to move to better compression standard than H264, in that time, then AV1 will as dead as VP8 and VP9 are now.

They claim that they will achieve 50% bitrate savings over HEVC, which shows the people behind it (not the financial backers, but the people actually doing the work) are either frauds or fools.

We've all heard this before. Remember Daala? They said it would be better than HEVC and released in 2013. Well it's now the end of 2016, and Daala is officially dead (it's remnants are being moved into AV1). Daala has never matched HEVC in its experimental releases. VP9 is ~20% worse than HEVC according to a recent mass test by Netflix. Those who have a vested interest in AV1's success are telling us that for some inexplicable reason VP9 + Daala + some other failed standard is going to be amazeballs when combined.

It's worth noting that just like Daala, AV1 is delayed. It's also worth noting that it will use the Opus audio format. HE-AAC which is the typical combination with H264/H265 is superior to Opus at bitrates under ~48kbps. It is far superior to Opus at ~24kbps and under (not important for physical media, but important for internet streaming).

AV1 doesn't exist, HEVC does, and damn is it good:

Mpv has no good front ends on Windows last I checked.

Gimme a call when it does though and maybe we will talk.

>>56964755
Why do you need a frontend? I use it on Windows and it works great.

>>56964755
What is a "good front end"?

>>56964767
Because i don't like the standard MPV interface. I don't feel like manually opening a configuration file and using hot keys to navigate..
>>56964775
Exists even? I can't even think of a front end for Windows that didn't just add some play buttons and call it a day.

But I see no reason to switch from Mpc. I've done side by side comparisons in the past and everything looked fine. I use mpv on my Linux system, but nerds are far too committed to killing Mpc for no good reason.

That's what I've been saying for a year but you retards keep going "muh coding to loop videos is a waste of time".

>>56964871
>Exists even? I can't even think of a front end for Windows that didn't just add some play buttons and call it a day.
What? No, I'm asking what a "good front end" would consist of, not asking for an example that works with mpv. Why would I ask that to you, considering you said it didn't have one? Obviously you wouldn't be able to answer that.

>>56964871
>I don't feel like manually opening a configuration file and using hot keys to navigate..

Navigate what? The UI is right in front of you. You can skip forward, add subs, change audio tracks, pause, play, whatever.

It works just as well as MPC-HC and this is coming from a former MPC-HC user.

>>56960649

MPC-BE, PotPlayer, obvious mpv.

Yes you do. It's so easy to use a woman could run it. It's done by a bunch of French homos who love style over performance and its popular simply because they added every codec under the sun so it plays everything in the most compatible way possible.

Why not hosting them on github?

A question for mpv users. On Windows, MPC-HC uses NVIDIA CUVID as hardware accelerator. What should I use on mpv? opengl-hq? Do I need to install something on Windows to have OpenGL so mpv can use it?

>>56969617
Cuvid is dead. Doesn't it?
What about using cuda instead?

>>56969648
Oh cuvid is cuda... Sorry.
So try cuda as hwdec dude.

>>56969571
>>56969576
forgot to mention that it crashes on exiting

>>56969617
opengl-hq is the video output renderer, not the hw accel.

you want hwdec=auto-copy

all you need are the latest graphics drivers.

>>56969617
Just
hwdec=auto
is enough

>>56969715
What the fuck are you doing to make mpv crashing like that. I hope you tried different gpu drivers.

>>56969723
>>56969730
So my config should be

vo=opengl-hq
hwdec=auto-copy

for high quality? Shouldn't I use direct3d on windows instead of opengl?

>>56969763
Nah it's all shit again.
Just use this:
profile=opengl-hq
hwdec=auto-copy

>>56969763
Hardware decoding isn't higher quality. In fact, it can lead to lower quality results in some cases.

It's pretty simple. Instead of suboptions like

, you now just use

scale=ewa_lanczossharp

Assuming you have a recent version of mpv obviously.

On Firefox it just takes one click.

>>56970761
But Firefox has botnet code, is made by SJWs, it's slower, you can't fully customize it anymore (by disabling all of the UI elements, for exemple) and it's getting worse and worse since they removed the colored tabs.
I might change to Chromium, tho.

>>56970669
You need to get 1 .py file, 1 reg file, need to add mpv and python 3.5 to environment path and you also need "you-get"

Yeah that happens when Chrome pre-loads pages in the background. Why do you think it uses so much of your ram?

It's supported just fine. It got an update just last week. It looks exactly the way it did back in the Firefox 3 days.

Chrome is literally a static, featureless browser designed for women and homosexuals.

Shit I'm sorry, I'm kinda drunk and tired..

Why is MPC playing some of my videos upside down?

>>56971192
mpv works just like mpc-hc out of the box you dumb nigger. there's no fucking coding required. the only difference is that the settings page is a config file, which barely needs any tweaking unless you have different system configs.

I have zero idea how to code and I've never used the command line on linux and I still switched from MPC-HC to mpv back in January and it made my life easier by playing more videos for me than MPC-HC ever did.

>>56971215
>pre-loads pages in the background

I don't see a problem id it's to make something faster. RAM is there to be used, not just for you to say it's there but you don't use it because reasons. Not everyone is using a crapmachine or a calculator to browse and shitpost.
>It's supported just fine.
So are you saying that it is supported once again? Because when I tried it it didn't even allow me to install it.

But even if it workd, I'm changing to Chromium because I want something that is fast instead of using something slower just because you can customize it to the UI level.

>>56971226
Then how can you not understand people get better quality with less resources? If you are a dev and cant understand the draw to mpv then seriously think of a new career.

>>56971278
Yes, the extension works fine. There is nothing wrong with it. Firefox is as fast as its ever been and its about to become as fast as Chrome when they enable multiprocess for all users.

Firefox will be fast AND customizable.

There's a reason /g/ prefers Firefox to JewChrome. Firefox still has your privacy and featureset in mind compared to JewChrome which is locking everything up and adding more botnet features with every major release.

The fact that you switched to a browser made by a Jewish ad company instead of a non-profit shows how dense you are being.

But hey, your funeral when you find out one day that Chrome has betrayed you to the Jews as it was designed to and then you will come crying to us about it.

>>56972461
It has better, instant rendering.

>>56972397

I had been using bomi for like a year when all of sudden it started tearing my screen during videos, I have SLI and no rendering mode, not even the single GPU one works properly on bomi

I don't want to go back to MPC but other mpv players have horribly atrocious skins, so it seems like I'll have to go back.

SMPlayer cant be any uglier, bakamplayer is barely passable and when I move my mouse and the seekbar appears the video size reformats.

Is there ANY other mpv skin that has a good UI? bomi's skins are most fantastic, the ones on the other players seem like they are out of the 1800s

>>56972790
>I had been using bomi for like a year when all of sudden it started tearing my screen during videos

Not AMD, two 750Ms on SLI, I've tried adjusting every single thing I could think of, not even forcing VSYNC on Nvidia control panel helped

Is there a way to keep the mpv window the same size when playing multiple files with different sizes in a playlist?

can mpv be used to watch things like netflix or amazon video?

Today when I went to boot up my anime for the evening, MPC-HC crashed my computer. After trying with a fresh boot and different files, the error was reproduced every time. Probably this could be fixed by someone smarter than me, but just want cute girls to medicate my emotional problems. Should I just switch to MPV even though it's unappealing?

Is there some sort of documentation or infographic that compares MPC-HC, MPV, MPC-BE, ffplay, and, I dunno, anything else that's a reasonable choice?

>>56969950
Kawaii Codec Pack was built for that same reason.

It's also dead now, but still works fine.

>>56972334
It wasn't designed to be elite, it was designed to be easy to use. And it was for a long time, until MPV came out and is equally easy while also being better.

Really makes you think

so, is it stagnation? last couple years were pretty good
mpv updates mostly fix bugs and do not improve quality that much, same thing with mpc/madvr/lav there is nothing to add so they don't
what's new in video rendering?

on the side note, how does mpv handles sound?

Let's talk about AV1 vs HEVC

I've been using HEVC since 2014 because it serves me well and I replace everything in my library with HEVC (no more x264). Now these industry leaders are pushing AV1. What could be the future of HEVC? We haven't even experienced the maturity of HEVC standard.
