Damn.

What's a good alternative when it inevitably becomes obsolete?

VLC is bloated and slow and WMP is garbage.

Why don't they release the source code so the community can pick it up?

VLC was never meant to be a video player for high quality playback. It was made to stream video over LAN (Video LAN Client). MPC was always developed with high quality video playback in mind.

>>61412674
MPC was always developed with high quality video playback in mind.
then why does it need a third party program (madvr)?

>>61412703
Because MPC-HC is GPL and whoever develops madVR refuses to publish it under the same license

>>61412416
Keep using it or just move over to MPC-HC BE which has been said a hundred times is still in active development. It's MPC-HC but with a few nice internal additions.

You can use mpv but there's good GUI for it on Windows, or at least one that isn't dead or half baked. For MacOS IINU works fucking great, with Linux you are probably already using mpv because it's literally the only good video player for it.

VLC if you are a reddit mouthbreather.

>Didn't MPC-HC turn into a stuttering piece of crap when 10-bit encoding hit?
No? It was just people with shit PC's.

VLC doesn't even support external renderers. MPC has always. Not to mention that MPC's default EVR CP is still better than VLC's default renderer.

>>61412558
Competent but it's suffers from the fact that there's literally only one dev working on it. It must be pretty good because even mpv borrows some code from it.

>>61412720
>>61412767
I know mpc-hc is better than vlc. But why didnt mpc-hc devs work on video rendering so it didnt rely on cclosed source third party programs. mpv has everything built in and is on par with madvr.

>>61412782
They did. As I said EVR CP is much better than VLC's renderer. I'm sure if there were more developers working on the project, they would have gotten it even better too.

The problem is when you're trying to use it to replace a player with a rich featureset and a GUI and a non-autistic userbase and that easily integrates with an interpolator so that you're watching stuff in 144 Hz like it's 2017 and not 200NEET.

mpv is good, but it can be a big learning curve for a lot of people. To really optimize it you do need to use the config file. It's weird hearing people on a technology board bad mouthing it because any competent user would realize mpv is very robust. But I guess some people dont like change or taking 10-20 min to learn something new.

I switched to mpv in 2013 and never looked back.

cвп is pretty good, but I feel you. I heard mpv can be compiled with MVTools or something, which is the same thing SVP is built on. If that's as good, terrific. If it can be toggled, like SVP, even better. I'm willing to throw away all of SVP's functionality to into this wonderful NEET rabbit hole.
So how?

>>61413288
MVTools is a vapoursynth script. It's not part of mpv, and doesn't need to be compiled in. (But you *do* need vapoursynth support)

Anyway I don't recommend using MVtools, vapoursynth is a huge hack and fucking awful for realtime video playback (and it shows); and MVtools is slow as balls compared to SVP

SVP supports mpv though, but I personally would just use neither. They artifact all over the fucking place anyway

>>61413261
Why the fuck do you need the bar visible while a video is playing?

MPV's seekbar disappears after a few seconds(can be adjusted) so you get a seamless experience.

You're LITERALLY promoting garbage design ideas.

No need to fork, that's literally what libmpv exists for: so you can write a GUI that uses mpv as a backend (or build it into a browser or whatever)

Enabling SVP and the overlay (for testing) are the only things I've done, and I find mpv to be eminently usable coming in from MPC. Thank you, autists ITT, for showing me such a mutable and robust alternative with which to enjoy my 144 FPS 3D animuus, possibly even after I jump ship from WX on one fine morning.

If nothing else, at least one bleating opponent to mpv has been converted.

It was already stated dozens of times that there's multiple GUIs for MPV.

>>61414288
>mpv
>drag and drop
Dumbest thing I read all day. mpv is a command line program, you use it from the command line

>>61414288
What, Windows can't associate video files with mpv? On GNU/Linux, I've set all video formats to be played with mpv. Click on a file and it plays. If I want to play a specific folder, I've set a custom action in Thunar that only requires 3 keystrokes. A traditional Windows-esque GUI is unnecessary bloat when the interface that's already in place is more than efficient. Learn how to use the program and your system better.

>>61414352
While this is somewhat true, it is not necessarily the only way mpv can be used.

Shitposting and cock waving aside, what media player can deliver the objectively highest quality playback, with .png screenshots and subtitle rendering as the only features required? For example, the banding seen on the hair here is unacceptable to me (MPC-HC).

>>61414431
Because we fucking hate using this shit. It's straight up unpleasant to use and interact with in any way.

>>61414371
>While this is somewhat true, it is not necessarily the only way mpv can be used.
Okay but only if you promise to absolutely never make a bug report because you can't see the errors that mpv output to the console

>>61414499
The banding is from the source material. CR rips are garbage.

>>61412848
I don't have the slightest idea why there is obvious shitposting on all sides to get (You)s.
On a serious note, I can agree. I used MPC-HC on Windows and it's a great video player. Linux has mpv and it turns out it's just as good at least on my hands. Configuring doesn't take that much at all. In fact, I could say mpv didn't take me that much time to configure since configuring MPC-HC got my hands dirty. Installing outside LAV, subtitle renderers that aren't shit, and integrating madVR are immediate things that come to mind. There's also configuring languages, inputs, and screenshots. Literally the same shit on mpv with the conf file.

>>61414401
mpv loads them automatically for me

>>61414503
How is doubleclicking a video file unpleasant interaction? Isn't it how you open pretty much every file on every OS equipeed with a graphical file manager?

>>61414431
>Isn't it a primarily *nix player with a lot of boiler plate to get it working on Windoze?
pretty much. It literally translates all OpenGL/GLSL to DirectX/HLSL calls out of the box to get it to run on winshit platform.

(You can disable that and use OpenGL directly, but good luck if your drivers support it - Microsoft hates cross-platform APIs like OpenGL)

>2017

>>61414499
I don't see any banding in that screenshot, but that aside, mpv has built-in debanding

If you unironically use VLC, then you should end yourself. It has objectively worse video quality and still builds font cache to this day. What the fuck are you doing man, just switch already. Get out of your comfort zone.

Yes, sane human beings migrate their configs instead of having to re-configure everything.

On Linux, just move your /home to a separate partition and then you can distrohop all fucking day without losing any of your files or configs, ever.

So you can spent more time ricing your mpv settings, of course

>>61414615
>Not compiling it yourself.

>>61414598
I never configure my video player because I don't use mpv and it doesn't require fucking configuring at all. All of the video controls are right there in a sensible and clear UI, and everything else is contained in plaintext menus. No vague, "minimalist" icons with no descriptions or titles, no "1337" hotkey sheets to memorize because I decided I wanted to go back to a point and step through frames.

You can make it smoother by tscale=catmull_rom or tscale=mitchell. oversample is the same shit as madVR's smooth motion. I used both, they're literally the same visually. Open stats and check if it even works and check for dropped frames/frame times.

Are you the guy with 144Hz monitor?

>>61417599
No

None of these players matter because they are all using directshow instead of the newer windows media foundation which is obviously a lot better but the fucktard devs at doom9 think it's too much work to keep their players updated with latest tech and support inferior and slower codebase

G-guys, I found a deal breaker that'll send me right back to the likes of MPC and VLC... mpv has no media key support except on Macfag OS, according to the man page...
Moreover, even if it did, it probably wouldn't support input without window focus. S-say it ain't so, /g/uise...

Nah this is true. I've been wanting to implement media key support, but I guess I've been too lazy. It's on the to-do list.

If it's done with global hotkeys, it will work without input focus, but it still needs someone to do it.

... I am into C programmer... I'd be willing to try if I knew how to so that I can keep using this wonderful player.

>>61418970
Feel free. mpv can always do with more contributors. In general, the stuff on that to-do page are supposed to be achievable by new contributors (eg. without requiring too much mpv-specific knowledge.)

give up right now

have you ever used mpv+youtube-dl? you can play anything, even feeding it the url of a tweet with a video will play that video
