What's the purpose of this?

>>60283383
For some reason when I would put it in fullscreen I could not exit the full screen anymore.
That fixed it

>>60283316
You should set volume-max to a value above 100 if you want to be able to increase the volume of quieter content. If you're going to downmix the audio (setting output channels to 2) consider adding:

ad-lavc-downmix=no #use when ac3 downmix needed but decoder downmix doesn't work properly
ad-lavc-threads=6 #set to number of system cores
audio-normalize-downmix=yes #prevent clipping when downmixing

For video, you should enable a deband filter if it's not set already as a part of the opengl-hq profile.

How do I set deband filter?
I don't even know what deband is

deband=yes
deband-iterations=4 #values above this yield no meaningful improvement

>I don't even know what deband is
It tries to remove banding in an image (frame) by dithering.

Here's an image I've prepared to demonstrate this.

The top image is without any filters (visible banding in gradients). The center image has my filter chain applied (including deband). The bottom image is the differences between the first two images where the difference is above the average level of distortion between the images (MAE, needed because I set target-prim, target-trc in my config and didn't bother to make a one-off config for this, which would make a better example).

>>60283551
>>60284138
Deband is included in profile=opengl-hq

if I can only get a show via HorribleSubs/Crunchyroll release, should I get pre-upscaled 1080p version or 720p version with ewa_lanczossharp scale and cscale

>>60286934
Just go for the 720p release if it's a TV rip. Wait for BD rips before considering 1080p, and then examine the actual quality (base animation and of encode / release(r)) before deciding.

I don't know why mpv became instable since last week, random auto-quit (not streaming videos), mega stuttering with some videos, black tearing and two times it made my system to reboot itself! So yes there some advanced features that some other players don't have but they are also more stable and less buggy.

Sounds like your hardware is dying or you got a bad driver update m8

Nothing particular changed during the last week on the mpv side

All the settings are explained in the documentation, anon

>wew lad, sure was an efficient use of network bandwidth compared to the svg you obviously saved it from

Oh it's worse than that. I exported a PNG from the SVG using Inkscape, but it's too large to upload, so I had to reduce the color pallet and dither it (Floyd-Stienberg) to make it small enough to upload.

This is my HW profile. I have an nvidia card + 4K monitor so the source (usually 1080p) gets scaled a lot. Can I improve it in any other way?

  [hardware-nvidia]
vo=opengl
profile=opengl-hq
# opengl-backend=x11egl
hwdec=vdpau

Also, anyone have a recommendation for SW rendering path for watching animu that requires scaling from 720/1080p to 4K?

>>60287624

Ditch your vo=opengl line (it's deprecated).

kill yourself back to baka-mplayer or vlc then.

quickie question... how do you do this image diff? how do you manage to stop on the same frame and do a frame-grab and how do you show diffs?

>>60288532
>how do you manage to stop on the same frame
-pause -start HH:MM:SS.XXXX
>and do a frame-grab
ctrl+s
>how do you do this image diff?
`compare` most likely

>>60287606
underrated post

>>60288552
thanks anon!

>>60288097
Sweet! Using this now.

>>60283316
Any recommended configuration for Windows?

I would prefer 720p output on youtube-dl and nothing too fancy or intensive.

>>60287614
>>60287624
how would I get this as a mac user?

>>60289683
I think it's the default on macos.

it's called SVP motherfucker

>>60289901
Surprisingly, that's a LOT of code! I was expecting that player to be some custom Lua code for OSD but the author did a lot of work on top of mpv to make it better.

Wish this could be ported to Linux...

>>60290023
no thanks, I don't want ugly artifacts

maximum fucking kek

tscale question
oversample vs mitchell vs robidouxsharp

>>60288552
>>60289133
Basically, but getting the filtered / non-filtered screenshots is a little easier. Use 's' for a screenshot as is from the source (includes overlayed subs if present and visible I believe, if not then 'shift-s' does), and 'ctrl-s' for a screenshot that includes your entire filterchain (what you see on screen).

As for the comparison: >>60288552 anon's got it. I use compare. In this case the metric was mae with a fuzz distance (stated previously). The images were combined with montage (both being part of the Imagemagick suite).

>>60283316
lol

>>60290396
Try them out faggot, there's no objectively better one. Oversample seems to be generally considered better for anime and other artificial sources, because it leaves the original frames intact. I personally don't like the others for that reason, they're too blurry. They do look smoother though.

>>60291229
all of them are shit compared to SVP. SVP has an 'animation' mode for anime as well which has no artifacting

>>60291250
Hahaha.
