I have three questions that more or less are about the same particular problem:

1. Is there a way to make mpv remember the last window size that it used?

2.Is there a way create a streaming playlist for links? (chaining anime links together from streaming sites)

3.Is there a way to not have mpv close when a streaming video is over?

It's very annoying to resize the window every time you are on a marathon

>>57281761
>2
iirc you can add urls one for each line in a file and then run from cli

mpv --playlist=file

don't know about the other two, I mainly run mpv from the cli, with no interface for music and fullscreen for videos

>>57282070
That does work but unfortunately it messes with the window size when switching videos. Any ideas?

>>57282070
>>57282250

It keeps the same size if it's a yt playlist link. Wonder if I can somehow make kissanime streaming links in to a playlist

I have a terribly old (2007) LCD television with poor backlighting.
What's the best way to increase brightness a little bit with mpv?

I had "not too bad result" with madVR gamma processing with pure power curve at 1.70. What's the equivalent in mpv and is it the best way to increase the brightness?

Thank you in advance! :)

Why? Why? Why is the mpv homepage so shitty?
Please, there are ergonomic standards so please use them!

>>57282853
It's currently a paradox, there is no ideal "bob" player.

Fucking hell, angle on Windows outperforms default backend on Linux now on my machine.

>>57282939

sometimes it gives hilarious results such as:

>>57283142
liar, linux = native and as fast as mpv can get.

>>57283342
No, it's not.

>>57283142
It always has been like that.

Do you guys bother to recode your stuff into HEVC to save space for when you put stuff on your Android devices or just when you back up stuff to cloudshit?

>>57283360
I find it incredibly hard to believe that mpv performs better on Wangblows then Linux.

>>57282344
but I enjoy them even more now that I got MPV

>>57281761
1. You will need to make a script for that, you can only have mpv open in certain size but to save it after resize you will need to write to a file(maybe straight into config or a separate file)

2. Create a playlist and load that or do

--Appends url from clipboard to the playlist
--Requires xclip

function os.capture(cmd, raw)
  local f = assert(io.popen(cmd, 'r'))
  local s = assert(f:read('*a'))
  f:close()
  return s
end

function append()
    local url = os.capture('xclip -o -selection clipboard')
    mp.commandv("loadfile", url, "append-play")
    mp.osd_message("URL loaded to playlist")
end

mp.add_key_binding("a", "appendURL", append)

And load every url individually

3. mpv --idle (--force-window optional)

>>57283224
What a retarded and pretty expensive piece of shit but it's a mind map creation tool not a strong designing tool like photoshop, inkscape or pencil.

However mpv is not a commercial product so only standards should worth and it's clearly not standard to hide the title/logo from the homepage and get an empty space in the top left.

>>57282344
Current normies prefer to stream torrents with popcorntime like apps or use netflix free account auto creator to get netflix for free on their devices.

>>57283443
Thanks for all that anon but I think I've already got it covered.

>>57281761
If you don't want to use cli you can shift + drag and drop links onto the mpv window, and that will queue them into a playlist.

For backing up to le cloud I have unlimited Crashplan, so I just backup whatever I can
I don't watch stuff on mobile, however I do listen to music which I do encode to aac from my FLAC archive, or I used to do that nowadays I just use Play Music

One program, does one need.

Just that fucking simple.

B af toggle "lavfi=[pan=1c|c0=c0+-1*c1]"

Nice audio filter toggle if anyone watches a lot of commentated video (Sports, E-Sports, Twitch Stream, etc).
It filters out the center channel, most commentary is done in mono so it will basically mute the voices and (usually) keep any background audio.
Example: https://my.mixtape.moe/chcefi.webm

>>57285250
Another example: https://my.mixtape.moe/ykyejx.webm
Unfortunately it also makes the audio channel mono, so you lose any positional audio, but I think it's fine for casual listening.

Hello madshi don't you have some code to copy-paste 7 times because you're a shit programmer?

You use python's pip installer to install it.

If you have pip installed, just write pip install streamlink and you're done.

Barely worked on. It'll take a while before it is usable.

Once it is, it might actually be one of the best players on the Android side of things. Though I don't think wm4 and the team has any focus on it whatsoever.

It's currently true, haasn has never made intensive tests of his opengl renderer on windows or baby distros like ubuntu or fedora and it seems to be a forced nvidia owner because of the terrible hardware support on linux.

>>57292469
No one optimizes programs for concrete GPUs, that's what drivers are for. Go away retarded foozoor.

>>57292499
Thinking that its software will work on any GPUs just because it works with the latest nvidia drivers for linux is a false sense of reality.

>>57292469
>>57292353
Haasn has done a lot of great work for mpv, but he isn't the only mpv dev. mpv has a lot of developers who care about Windows, macOS and Intel graphics (I'm not sure about AMD.) That's an advantage that community developed software will always have over single-developer proprietary freeware like madVR.

Also, since madshi hasn't figured out how to monetize madVR, he has no financial incentive to buy hardware for testing, but wm4 has (and does.)

It's a little surprising, but not that surprising. ANGLE doesn't have that much runtime overhead. In fact, it works well enough as a generic graphics library that it's used for all rendering in Chrome, not just for WebGL. Obviously Windows is the most popular platform for Chrome and Google care a lot about Chrome running on normie shitboxes, so they wouldn't have chosen to use ANGLE for all rendering unless it was efficient.

>>57288264
>When will mpv dev create a SVP like shader/hook?

(e.g. a C library based on existing mvtools code)

And it still worse than ANGLE

>>57294035
yeah but chrome doesn't need to render 4K 60 Hz video with 3-tap EWA upscaling

>>57294155
As long as the GLSL to HLSL translation isn't awful, I don't see how that's too different from Chrome's normal video rendering.

>>57294183
My point is that chrome has barely no GPU load, so inefficiency is fine. It gets a lot tougher when you need to e.g. stream 4K 60 Hz frames to the GPU, and the more abstraction layers you have between you and the hardware the more opportunities there are for something to fuck up

>>57294155
That's why mpv needs a vulkan renderer to be supreme.
However I don't know a lot of people that currently hav the skills and time to do this in less than a year or two. I was very surprised when I saw a vulkan branch in haasn's activity feed but it's not an easy or funny job.

>>57294272
Yeah, vulkan would definitely be interesting. I would say the vulkan renderer is about halfway done, but realistically that means it's probably about a third done at best.

With nobody else interested in working on it it will probably stay this way for quite a while, unless perhaps improvements to vulkan breathe new life into it. (The swapchain is currently very lackluster, and it's difficult to load GLSL at runtime without relying on nvidia-only extensions)

>>57294247
I don't think that's true. Netflix will be streaming 4K frames to the GPU and YouTube will be streaming 60fps video to the GPU. (I'm not sure about 4K 60fps.) Also, modern web pages are complicated as fuck and people complain when they don't scroll at 60fps. Since not all of Chrome is hardware accelerated (I think) this relies on rapidly uploading tiles from the HTML renderer to the GPU. Web browsing is probably the most graphically intensive thing non-gamers do.

As for video games, Microsoft also contribute to ANGLE so that iOS and Android devs can port their games to UWP. Since WGL is deprecated, this practically makes ANGLE the official way to do OpenGL on modern Windows. (I think there's a page somewhere on MSDN that says as much.)

>the more abstraction layers you have between you and the hardware the more opportunities there are for something to fuck up
True, if they're done wrong, but I also believe abstraction is part of good software design. If the abstraction layers are good and the platforms aren't _too_ different, it's better to maintain one complicated renderer for multiple platforms than several complicated renderers for each platform.

In general, I think mpv is a better program that most Windows-only shit (incl. MPC-HC and VSFilter) because it relies on abstraction to target multiple systems. The playback core and the GL renderer must be abstracted from the platform-specific parts in the GL backends and osdep, and this results in good code, whereas in Windows-only codebases, devs tend to let poorly designed Windows API crap creep through the whole thing.

Yeah, I'm hype for Vulkan too, but the pessimistic part of me says Microsoft will try to fuck them over somehow on the platform-integration side of things to give DX12 the advantage. If Vulkan can't render to a DXGI swapchain (I've done no research, so I have no idea if it can,) it might be disadvantaged by not being able to use the latest DXGI features.

Personally I couldn't give two shits about how well mpv does or doesn't work on Windows, though

For the most part, probably. I think they blacklist hardware video decoding on AMD hardware though because of this bug: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/3255

>>57294607
Well I care senpai. All platforms deserve love.

I don't really know.

I find that mpv's code base is absolutely chock-full of obscure hacks for working around all sorts of platform-specific issues in the abstraction layers. The number of highly specific suboptions like --opengl-pbo, --opengl-swapinterval, --opengl-glfinish, --opengl-waitvsync, --opengl-dwmflush, --opengl-dcomposition, --opengl-backend, --opengl-early-flush etc. alone go to show just how fucked beyond all repair OpenGL is.

I think the main difference between OpenGL and something like Vulkan is that Vulkan is not necessarily more low level, but that vulkan is more *verbose*. By providing the driver with much more information about what it is you're doing, it doesn't need to constantly keep second-guessing you like all OpenGL implementations do.

That is the real problem with cross-platform stuff: It will work differently on every platform even if you put a ton of abstractions in front of it, which means the only thing you're really gaining from the abstractions is making it impossible and difficult to work around all of these issues in your code (i.e. mpv)...

>>57294676
Correction: All platforms that care about interoperability deserve love.

If Microsoft is actively trying to fuck over cross-platform developers like they did with OpenGL, their platform deserves no amount of effort or support.

>>57294636

wew trippy

Is VAAPI working with HEVC-10bit with mpv?

>>57294749
Yeah, that's a common argument against cross-platform software. I don't buy it though. Modern desktop operating systems are more similar than they are different, so not being able to target both Windows and Linux is a sign of a poor inflexible codebase.

Also, if we're counting (who's counting, right?) all those timing options (--opengl-glfinish, --opengl-waitvsync, --opengl-early-flush) are to work around weird bugs in Linux GL drivers. No Windows drivers even support waitvsync (and blocking on VSync just werks in the angle and dxinterop backends because calling Present() in a loop to render on each vsync just werks in Direct3D.)

>>57294773
Nah. All platforms deserve love because their users deserve love. Windows has 90% of desktop computer users and not all of them can even switch to Linux because they might own shit hardware with poor Linux support, hence good programs should attempt to target Windows.

>>57294914
Xamarin -> PowerShell -> What's next? Cross-platform Direct3D?

>>57294971
That's a scary thought because it would mean cross-platform COM.

>>57294914
Is it really linux GL drivers or just xorg?
Xorg is a cancer.
Even directshow looks digestible compared to this shit.
Xorg is the biggest mess on this planet.
It makes 40 year-old COBOL looks nice and enjoyable.

>>57295080
Probably just Xorg, and old Xorg at that, pre-DRI3. Linux is slowly fixing its graphics stack problems. I want to switch to Wayland soon, but not everything I use works yet.

>>57295105
I can't switch to Wayland until red hat gets their head out of their ass, stops pushing client-side decorations and lets me use tiling window managers again

>>57295046
COM should die immediately!

>>57295105
Wayland/Mir/... I am too old for these now.

>>57295129
Yeah that too. Fuck client-side decorations.

>>57295105
>I want to switch to Wayland soon, but not everything I use works yet
Not even mpv does, interpolation is fucked in wayland.

>>57295129
Wayland doesn't really have anything to do with CSD, you can have the same borders that you probably have in your tiling wm.
As for GUI programs pushing their own CSD (e.g. file manager) you probabbly don't rely on them too much in a tiling workflow, and if you do, there are usually alternatives without decorations.

>>57294794
Sure, if you want to manually enable it whenever you play music. Also, if you use video-sync=display-resample, remember to switch it off so it doesn't warp the pitch.

>>57295878
>Sure, if you want to manually enable it whenever you play music.
m8, that style of thinking is what gives us bullshit “assume the user is dumb” hand-holding cancer

I don't need some shitty lua script to tell me how to use profiles; heck, I don't even use mpv as a music player. Stop assuming everybody uses a computer the same way you do!

>Also, if you use video-sync=display-resample, remember to switch it off so it doesn't warp the pitch.
That wouldn't affect the visualization though because it happens during output, well after the filter's execution

>>57295995
>m8, that style of thinking is what gives us bullshit “assume the user is dumb” hand-holding cancer
Well I wrote that script to scratch my own itch because I "assume the user (me) is lazy." Feel free to not use it I guess.

>That wouldn't affect the visualization though because it happens during output, well after the filter's execution
Are you sure? If the output fps of the visualization almost matches the monitor, mpv will try to sync it by adjusting the pitch of the audio. I don't see any reason to believe it wouldn't affect the visualisation because the normal mpv filter chains still apply when lavfi-complex is used.

>>57294125
But more often than not it hasnt been for the better, at least for me. I would rather have things set the way I want and choose what to change on my own. I look at the change logs and determine if it is better myself. In the long run its less messing around with .conf file.

How can I accomplish the equilivant of script-opts part of this?

Nr.2 has more natural color in the entire frame. Background looks good and the faces look good.
