Even MPC-HC devs switch to mpv, why wouldn't you?

Ok so this might sound weird but what are some really nice stuff to have in your config that isn't related to video/audio/subtitles?

Like, quality-of-life stuff pretty much. Also what are some scripts that I should get?

The problem isn't the video sync. It's that he's using Angle. Remove that shit and use regular OpenGL or DXInterop and his problems will go away.

>>61417941
Wrong, angle is faster than other shit.

>>61417949
Wrong, it's slower and buggier on everything but Intel.

>>61417957
It depends

>>61417970
Not really. AMD and Nvidia both work badly with Angle. Or at least they did 6 months ago when I last had GPUs from both of them to test on.

>>61417984
Bullshit, it never worked badly on Nvidia.

i'm too dumb to compile mpv myself. Which repo has the newest mpv?

Never used it, and vlc just werks. is there any pro that it has to vlc?
thanks

>>61418347
Is there a recommended place somewhere where I can find pre-made scripts?

Is ravu dead? Is it because the retarded apple fags with terribly limited opengl? Damn! Since when did they stop watching shorty itunes mp4?

>>61418378
yes, animu girls look 70% younger on mpv

Why does everyone care so much about configs?

Isn't mpv defaults already optimized for most scenarios?

I really can't understand why someone would spend so much time tweaking every single configuration option instead of just using the default, tested, simple default.

Actually, I would go as far as defend the idea that there shouldn't be any config file.
mpv should simplify itself and provide only 1 default that functions well and work from that.
Less code, less bugs, more focus.

Why isn't mpv loading my shaders?

This is my config:

cscale=ewa_lanczossharp

interpolation=yes
temporal-dither=yes
video-sync=display-resample

>>61418517

>>61418517
Try:

opengl-shaders-append=~~/shaders/SSimDownscaler.glsl
opengl-shaders-append=~~/shaders/SSimSuperRes.glsl

I think this stuff changed recently.

>>61418517
This >>61418549 or >>61418552

>>61418513
The default config is made to have the best compatibility but it's not the best for quality, that's why everyone care so much.

>>61418459
This is funny because it is true.

>>61418593
Do you mean shitty 80s animes looks more fancy with meme upscalers or just a pedo/shitpost?

>>61418549
That gave me a different error but still didn't work. Appreciate the help though.

>>61418552
This however did work, thank you so much.

I pasted this script in the mpv\scripts folder but it doesn't load the next video. What did I do wrong?
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/lua/autoload.lua

>>61418397
In the OP.

are they ever going to change the ugly ass logo? it's the most disgustingly ugly logo ever, even fucking vlc is better.

>>61418632
";" works for me on Win.

>>61418642
wrong folder

>>61418513
You're right for the most part. mpv devs actually care about the defaults, so most options will be set to what the devs think are the best settings. The exceptions are options that are a trade-off between quality and performance or compatibility. For example, mpv uses bilinear scaling by default, which is not particularly good looking, but much faster than the other scalers on shitty integrated GPUs. If you set

profile=opengl-hq

, it will change a bunch of options to less-well-performing, less-compatible, but better-looking values, but even then, it won't enable things like the EWA scalers, because most people can't tell the difference between them and spline36, they need a lot more computing power, and when you get to high-quality scalers like that, things actually get pretty subjective, so it's hard to pick a default (eg. do you pick ewa_lanczossharp or ewa_lanczossoft?).

>>61418667
Is there a good picture to ass converter?

>>61418667
Maybe. I've heard some devs complain about the logo on IRC, so it's possible. The current logo definitely looks outdated. It was clearly made to fit in with trends in OS X app logos at the time, with the grain texture and faux-3d highlights.

>>61418699
I wish there was a profile opengl-vhq or something for maximum placebo ;___;

>>61418728
Apparently the subjectivity thing is why they won't add an opengl-vhq:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/3659

I wouldn't mind one though, if it had stuff like

scale=ewa_lanczos

and

video-sync=display-resample

in it.

>>61418721
Hope they will not fall for the flat or material design memes!

>>61418575
>>61418699
That explains a bit, thank you.
I'll just keep using the default. I trust the developers to options that are the best trade-off.
If I had a really powerful computer I could look into other options for worse performance / better quality.
But in a limited notebook... let's keep things as they are.

I still think there are far too many people who care about config options that would be much better by keeping the defaults.
Fuck, there are clueless users copying config options around without even knowing what they do.

Guys... just calm down and keep it easy.
Install mpv and watch videos.
How hard is that?
In most cases you don't need (or should) touch anything, right?
Unless you have a really powerful computer and want to marginally increase the quality. In that case you add 1 or 2 config options. No need to go crazy over it.

>Core mpv functionality can be extended with Lua scripts. All scripts from ~/.config/mpv/scripts/ directory are loaded automatically
from the wiki
They also mention Several Lua scripts are shipped with mpv and installed into /usr/share/mpv/lua/ directory. Created mpv\lua and put the script in there, still doesn't work.

Which directory should the scripts be in then?

And besides that, there's been no new release since April.

>>61419198
It works with pageup on the keyboard. I was trying to use the next/previous file on the OSD.
Anyway to make it work for those?

>>61418721
What no, the current devs (and me, as a user) like the logo.
There was uncertainty about the logo's license and that was the reason they talked a few times about a new one. However, they managed to contact the creator and now everything is fine.

The logo is great, go fuck yourself for your shit taste.

>>61419354
Yeah, there was some uncertainty with the licence, but I remember someone proposed a solution to replace the logo with a more modern-looking one. It hasn't come up again as far as I know because the licence situation was resolved.

If I'm being honest, I really dislike the logo. It's a weird faux-3d thing, but it's not a 3d object that exists in real life. It's like a weird disc with a wonky misshapen tube on it. Also, while the rest of the logo is 3d, the play symbol in the middle has no definition of its own, even though it should be the focal point.

So I've been using MPV (on linux) for a few years now but never got around to configuring it. I have a bunch of questions.

I'm on an Nvidia card so obviously I'd want to enable hardware acceleration, should I use VDPAU or Cuda? I'm getting the vibe that Cuda hwdec is fairly new and mainly used for 10bit??

Is profile=opengl-hq better than hwdec=vdpau with vo=vdpau?

Is vdpaupp (vdpau post processing) worth configuring?

Are there any worthwhile shaders out there? If so, link to glsl?

How far along is Vulkan and are there any benefits in using it?

Anything else you guys recommend?

>>61418517
Imported those opengl-shaders:

opengl-shaders="~~/shaders/FSRCNN_24_4_4_ssim.glsl"
opengl-shaders="~~/shaders/KrigBilateral.glsl,~~/shaders/SSimDownscaler.glsl,~~/shaders/SSimSuperRes.glsl"

Which in turn gives me this:

[vo/opengl] Unrecognized command 'DESC KrigBilateral Downscaling Y pass 1'!
[vo/opengl] Unrecognized command 'DESC SSimDownscaler Variance I'!
[vo/opengl] Unrecognized command 'DESC SSSR I Downscaling I'!

I guess I am using old version of mpv, aren't I?

>>61417826
I dont know what the fuck shaders or vulkans are but my config only has a few lines mostly shit for mouse timeout and moving the bar to the bottom.
Everything works just fine and I dont see any issues with the videos.

Can someone explain what all of this extra ricing is about and put simply what difference some of this stuff will ACTUALLY make

How do I load lua files on Windows?

I need it so it can load the next video in the folder.

>>61419410
>but I remember someone proposed a solution to replace the logo with a more modern-looking one. It
Multiple people, actually.
However, I can't remember a single one that was not hated.

>>61417919
put the bar at the bottom

layout=bottombar
seekbarstyle=bar

>>61419442
>I'm on an Nvidia card so obviously I'd want to enable hardware acceleration, should I use VDPAU or Cuda? I'm getting the vibe that Cuda hwdec is fairly new and mainly used for 10bit??
I think Cuda is the newer one. Apparently Nvidia is letting their VDPAU library stagnate, so Cuda might be more usable, especially for newer formats like 10-bit HEVC. (I don't have Nvidia so I don't know for sure.) Don't feel obliged to use hardware decoding though. It's not always faster, especially with a desktop CPU.

>Is profile=opengl-hq better than hwdec=vdpau with vo=vdpau?
Yep. profile=opengl-hq and vo=opengl are recommended if you can run them. hwdec=vdpau and hwdec=cuda both work with vo=opengl and use GPU-to-GPU copying (whereas the *-copy hwdecs work with any VO and copy through the CPU.)

>Is vdpaupp (vdpau post processing) worth configuring?
Only if you want hardware-accelerated deinterlacing, and be careful because it might hurt video quality and colour accuracy.

>Are there any worthwhile shaders out there? If so, link to glsl?
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/User-Scripts#pixel-shaders
SSimSuperRes is pretty okay. I haven't tried the others.

>How far along is Vulkan and are there any benefits in using it?
Not very far along. It will be a long time before the quality is as good as opengl. Possible future benefits include performance improvements because some operations can be made asynchronous.

>>61419566
you put it in the fucking scripts folder

>>61419647

Sorry, didn't load the autoload.lua that I put in MPV\scripts\

>>61419566
You need to create a sripts folder in the mpv directory.
The play next file script works but only if you use the keyboard shortcuts (pagup - pagedown).
I was confused as well since the skip buttons on the OSD didn't work.

>>61419844
The scripts folder is in the mpv directory as seen.

How is your mpv.conf written to load the lua?

>>61419874
You don't need to do anything to the mpv.conf
it loads the scripts automatically when inside that folder.
Make sure you have fileextensions turned on and that it's not .txt

>>61419905
It's lua as you see in the image and as you can see I don't hide extensions on files.

https://pastebin.com/yxFkjCBe

>>61419822
put the file in %appdata%\mpv\scripts
if that doesn't work either, then try to load the script manually with
script="directory of autoload.lua"

Does mpv support linked mkvs yet, or is it still 20 years behind MPC-HC?

>>61419992
That didn't work either.
What bindings are you using for jumping to next file?

Mine are
PGUP add chapter -1
PGDWN add chapter 1

But I read something about next_file or whatever but don't have that page anymore.

Got it to work using another script, so scripts worked, it's just that autoload.lua didn't work.

https://github.com/donmaiq/mpv-nextfile

Now I just have to rebind this so it works with PGUP and PGDN

I'll post it if I get it working so others with similar problems can try.

>>61420027
you know autoload automatically loads the next file in the folder after the current one has finished, right?

>>61420076
That's the thing, it didn't once the video was over.
I loaded the videos over and over seconds before it ended, let it play to the last second, nothing.

>>61420070
Weird, for me autoload works with pageup by default.

>>61420097
Yeah.
How does your bind looks like in input.conf because for me it was PGUP add chapter -1.

Same as yours, copied from the mpc-hc config
PGUP playlist-next; write-watch-later-config #Skip to next file

I just added adjusting volume with mousescroll
AXIS_UP add volume 1
AXIS_DOWN add volume -1
Should be the default desu

and a rightclick menu that only works on linux ;_;

>>61420147
I think windows might read it a different way then.
since adding PGUP playlist-next to the input.conf doesn't change file

>switched to mpv yesterday
>already miss ngu so much

>>61420147
If I drag all videos into the player it jumps between files but still not doing it when opening a single video so it's still not loading it in the way MPC does that can load videos in the same directory.

Got ontop to work with simply putting ontop in mpv.conf and using https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/lua/ontop-playback.lua
So now it works closer to MPC step by step.

>>61420223
If you drag multiple files manually it's going to create a playlist, so that's normal, what autoload does is make a playlist out of files in the directory automatically. Still I don't know why it won't work for you, it works on my windows.

I vaguely remember someone decompiling MadVR to grab the NGU glsl file a few weeks ago. Was anyone ever able to get that working?

I'm using the portable version, try that and copy over the scripts folder.

>>61420221
I switched from madvr too. I dont miss NGU. I find nnedi3 to be better than NGU with low res anime. I use SSSR with 720p videos and Krigbilateral with native res videos. SSIM for downscaling. I get better colors than in mpc-hc too.

>>61420300
I think I had a portable version as well because MPV didn't make stuff into %APPDATA for me.

It's portable (and perhaps even more portable now thanks to >>61420300).
It contains the whole deal.
Only difference from the MPCHC version of input.conf is that I changed the F1 and F2 from


F1 add sub-delay -0.1
F2 add sub-delay +0.1

To

F1 seek -85
F2 seek 85

To skip anime intros.

Sorry for asking for help so much, I hope this will work for everyone wanting to use it.

I still need to get minimize to work when binding to "b", but I did get Alt+x to work like in MPCHC.

>>61420660
It could probably be possible for him to patent it. He won't do it unless necessary though, as it costs money.

>>61420861
If madshi patent it, he has to disclose the details, how the algorithm works. And he's already trying so hard to hide them. So obviously no.

>>61420861
Does he needs to patent anything if he plans to sell it as avisynth plugin?

Has anyone messed around with SVP and MPV on linux? I'm thinking about giving it a try.

>>61421420
Isnt SVP Windows only?

>>61421134
No but he does when he wants you to prevent re-implementing it and giving it away for free.

>>61421119
If someone reverse-engineers his algo and gives it away for free, he'd rather disclose it himself while gaining the ability shut down competition.
It's not like it matter that he'd have to disclose details when you aren't allowed to use them for a few years.
Of course he won't do anything unless necessary.


Tbh I don't get why no one has cracked/disclosed it yet. I guess he really protected it quite well.

Does one know anything about the algorithm? For me it's hard to imagine it's not based on some neural network/nnedi3 stuff, even though people claim it's a conventional scaler.

>>61421452
No, it's cross platform for quite some time now.

>>61421420
It's free for linux so why are you asking here and not just using testing it...?

patents are not always needed for a lawsuit. if someone were to use the mpv code without properly respecting the license, mpv could sue, even though the mpv code isn't patented.

in the same way, if the mpv devs would include code (or e.g. neural network weights, if ngu is a neural network?) that clearly originated from reverse engineering madvr, madshi could probably sue, too, without needing a patent. at least that's my understanding.

of course if an anonymous user were to post a user shader somewhere, suing the anonymous user should be pretty hard... ;) not sure if we should sink that low, though.

>>61419702
Not trying to reinvent the wheel by writing it's own decoder, and using ffmpeg sure helps.

>not sure if we should sink that low, though.
I see it the way I see DRM'd video streams. Even disregarding the ethics of DRM (or piracy), it's plenty reasonable to pirate it just so you can watch it in your own media player instead of a shitty web player.

>>61421541
I think reverse-engineering in most case is prohibited by the ToS shipped with the software. Not sure if it's also prohibited by applicable laws though, I'm not a lawyer.

>>61421657
But you lack the skills to do so ;)

We must admit, it's a really interesting algorithm especially regarding speed/result.
I haven't seen one comparison where a ewa scaler was better, so NGU is objectively superior.

Then he could not really patent it. Everybody creating a close-to-NGU scaler can just claim having created an algorithm based on this PS3 shader just like madshi.

>>61421489
>it's not based on some neural network
it is neural network based, people are retards.

Is there a NGU-like scaling method for MPV?

>>61421767
Maybe he lied about it though, i dunno. Where do you even get PS3 shaders?

>>61421657
i think it's reasonable to remove drm from content you actually bought, so you can use it freely in your own home. i think only few people would disagree with that. after all, you're not harming anyone by doing that.

however, stripping drm and then uploading the unprotected content to the internet is a whole different ball game. the same applies to using code (or neural network weights) without respecting the rights of the devs who created that code/weights. i think most people would agree that doing these things is not legal.

>>61421663

Can't compare.

>>61422052
Why? Both are resolution doublers. Both use Y'CbCr color space - capable of doubling luma and chroma independently.

>>61422125
NNEDI3's output can only compare when additional shaders/options are used. Remember the comparison guy? He actually found a combination resembling NGU very closely. However, the computational requirement was absurd, compared to NGU.

For some reason volume in mpv on windows is too low. Increasing the maximum value doesn't solve the problem correctly. It's just decrease sound quality on high volume. Is there any way to fix this?

>>61421972
>however, stripping drm and then uploading the unprotected content to the internet is a whole different ball game.
Well, when only a few people can decrypt Netflix et al it's the best you can get. I would love to be able to stream that stuff directly to mpv (and save a copy for offline viewing) - but I can't. And even if the decrypting methods were made public, they would quickly be patched.

With NGU, yeah, it's probably more reasonable to expect the user to decrypt/convert/whatever on their own rather than distributing the shader code directly.

It's been years since I last used mpv. This general used to have some convenient basic configs to start with depending on whether you wanted toaster performance or placebo enhancements. Do you still need those? Also which Windows build should someone go for? lachs0r's doesn't seem very regularly updated.

>>61422273
So you meant they cant compare performance wise? Its not really true. NGU is fast but there weren't a single decent comparison with nnedi3 and on some systems its as slow as nnedi3. For example i own a Polaris GPU and NGU is barely faster for me. It also makes my GPU to emit loud ringing noise and loads it very hard compared to nnedi3. NGU is good in some scenarios and with some systems but so is nnedi3.

All the rest you posted is either at the default setting, or you didn't type it in correctly (temporal-dither isn't an option by itself like you wrote it) or it does nothing to the image quality.

Why can't mpv into smb shares? At least on linux you have to mount the share via cifs, otherwise you are not able to play the files.

>>61425691

It doesn't effect image quality, it's more for compatibility I think.

>>61425741
Ah, is that the same story for opengl-pbo?

>>61425750
I think so. I know if I enable that it fucks up subs for me at least.

Whenever I activate any video-sync=display-* option, mpv freezes for a second or two while opening a file.
Is there anything I can do to stop this?
I'm using an i7-4770k, so I don't think it's a CPU performance issue? Running Windows 7, in case that matters.

Because nobody who would be capable of doing so seems to care.
If you can, it would be as simple as getting any DirectX debugging tool and dumping the shaders while madVR is running, then running a HLSL->GLSL decompiler on it to produce GLSL. These tools all exist. The harder part would be reverse engineering the logic to figure out what exactly it's doing, so you know what textures to plug in where. Again, you'll need to find somebody who cares.

Test it on some shitty quality video.

What mpv config options should I have to ensure smooth and high quality playback if I'm already using SVP for real time frame interpolation? I couldn't find a Windows build with vapoursynth support to run mvtools and while my specs (i5-6600k+GTX-1070) should be able to handle SVP just fine, my videos still look slightly choppy and lowering the SVP settings made no difference which leads me to believe that my mpv config might be flawed.

>>61431949
Are you on Windows? What is your configuration? What sort of video card do you have?

I'm on linux and am still looking into setting it up so maybe I can't be much help but it looks like hwdec should be turned off since svp itself uses the video card directly via opencl.

>>61432011

Does it mean it will finally possible to use ewa_* scalers with my Intel HD3000? ^^

>>61432059
No idea anon, I just got SVP configured on my linux setup. There were a couple things that I ran into.

1) I was wrong about hwdec being turned off. The linux config states that somewhat incorrectly citing an incompatibility with vapourware filters. Turns out copy-back hardware decoders are compatible with vapourware (moreover, the automatic configuration assumes hwdec is enabled so it autoconfigures a little high). You're currently using hwdec=auto-copy, I'm not familiar with Windows but maybe figure out if your hardware acceleration is working and set it manually (eg. hwdec=vdpau-copy)? I mainly say this because it's possible to have a VDPAU (or VAAPI) video card that uses some software shit to support VAAPI (or VDPAU) as well, so fiddling with that may get you better performance.

2) opengl-early-flush=no fixed my framedrop issues but the wiki mentions that for some users it may be the source of said issues. Try turning this on/off.

3) SVP tries to compute the framerate automatically. Allegedly this works differently on windows than linux but maybe manually setting the framerate to 2.5X will help?

In general it looks amazing for me, but there are noticeable artifacts during scenes with complicated high speed action. For a sample look at the text on the right between 4 and 7 seconds in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjb6CSe4708
Complicated action scenes seem to get similar artifacts around limbs and stuff. I'll probably mainly use this for dramas or for the black bar lighting for that reason (the artifact masking helps but I'd rather watch a lower framerate video without artifacts than a higher framerate video with them).

No. Your hardware doesn't support the features and stuff they are talking about at all.
Even among the current generation of Intel GPUs there are a few outliers not supporting the necessary OpenGl version

Also,for cscale (bilinear vs ewa)?

>>61434304
Forgive me for being retarded, but if I use the SSSR shader do I have to manually use some scaling option somewhere or will it manually kick in if I do something like fullscreen a video that is lower res than my setup?

>>61434713
>What is the best picture mode for 1080p T.V? Modes are dynamic, standard, natural, and movie. Need for chinese cartoons.

I think those depend on your viewing situation. Like if you're watching the TV in a well lit room under natural/daylight lighting you will probably want different settings than if you're watching it under soft lighting or with the lights off. Or at least that's my understanding, all about being able to get the best colors regardless on your ambient color temperature.

>>61434713
>What is the best picture mode for 1080p T.V
I'd calibrate the TV to the best of my abilties and forget about shitty TV modes. A well calibrated screen looks good with any kind of media.

It will only be used if any luma upscaling is needed. For example 720p -> 1080p. It wont be used for videos with your monitor's native resolution or when downscaling. All automatically. Set scale=ewa_lanczos.

Anyone have issues with playing Livestreams in mpv, only for it to pause after 5-10 seconds as if the progress bar is the 5-10 seconds of cached video, so it just play that and then stops when finished?

I'm new to MPV. Running on a 4790k and GTX 980 TI. Can anyone recommend me some configs to use for best quality with my hardware set up?

That's wrong in a couple of claims, and it's a very basic setup.

You want shaders and shit? Then SSSR is your best bet. The link is on the user scripts page.

>You want shaders and shit? Then SSSR is your best bet. The link is on the user scripts page.
I'm not him, but that's what I'd expect if you say you have a 980TI.

>>61436081
>The parts that were explained to be wrong.
Oh, i dont care about that. The anon asked high quality config so i linked one to him, thats it.
>'m not him, but that's what I'd expect if you say you have a 980TI.
I dont like suggesting shaders to a newfags to be honest.

hi. can someone post a sample mpv.conf.

im using i5 4460 and gtx 750Ti with a fixed 60hz 1080 monitor.

>>61425577
>cscale=ewa_lanczossoft
>soft
why not sharp?

>>61436146
Look >>61425577

>>61436162
That dude probably just copy pasted some stuff from random mpv.conf's on the internet.

>>61436187

how do i change subtitle font?

>>61436162
Sharper = more ringing. You want to avoid artifacts for chroma as good as possible. Perceived sharpness comes from luma anyway.

Does this seem sensible?

profile=opengl-hq
hwdec=vdpau
vo=opengl
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
cscale=ewa_lanczossharp
opengl-shaders-append=~~/shaders/SSimSuperRes.glsl

>>61436066
Keep in mind that SSSR will actually degrade already bad content. It's really not made for bad stuff, use nnedi there instead.

i should stay on linear scaling instead of interpolation if i'm on an intel integrated potato right?
also how do i check which presets it's using while playing?

>>61436324
Is nnedi3 actually fast enough for real time use?

>>61436311
Have you even compared them before giving advices? ewa_lanczossoft has more ringing than ewa_lanczos.

>ewa_lanzos, sssr, nnedi3
what the fuck kind of gibberish are you people talking about

>subjectivity is objective

Some of us like it and find it amazing that we can use one player for every little use case (mpv)

>>61436187
>>61436284
nvm i found it.

sub-font='Univers LT Std 45 Light'
sub-font-size=45
sub-bold=no
sub-border-size=1

>>61436498
aah, I thought you were taking about dhdndxjcnd48

>>61436435
Should be on a 980TI.

what's the difference between a hardware decoder with copyback and without copyback?

>>61436560
copyback uses RAM I think

>>61436574
what would be the advantage of using one over the other?

>>61436580
In my system copyback makes little to no difference in frame latency to the point that I simply watch videos without any hwdec at all

>>61436560
RTFM
>The ...-copy modes (e.g. dxva2-copy) allow you to use hardware decoding with any VO, backend or filter. Because these copy the decoded video back to system RAM, they're likely less efficient than the direct modes

>>61436560
Only use copyback if you need to use a filter or have some weird special setup.

>>61436482
RAVU. RAAAAAVU!

>>61436560
copyback is as far as I know always safe in terms of picture quality. You always get what the video and your configs deliver (meaning things like no color conversations from YUV to RGB, for example)

>sends me to dumb mode every single time
>even opengl -hq sends me to dumbo mode
time's up for this potato

>>61436763
>no color conversations from YUV to RGB
that's only with dxva2 or vaapi-glx.

>>61436863
it was just an example

It's all here https://mpv.io/manual/master/#video

>>61436801
Use opengl-backend=dxinterop

>>61436912
>opengl-backend=dxinterop
thanks, it worked

>>61432161
>Am I wrong? What is the benefit in avoiding the video card altogether?
It's slow, buggy and often corrupts either the video or the video's timestamps?

It's only faster than CPU decoding for HEVC, and only then really needed for 4K. (And that's mainly because nobody seems to give a shit about decoding HEVC in software)

Something needs to be done with dumb mode error. Look at >>61436801 Now imagine how many people have this shit and wonder why nothing changes when they put in their configs fancy ewa scalers. Something like OSD warning is needed so people know shirts working in full retard mode and not as intended. I remember that poor guy that used his mpv in dumb mode for half a year without knowing it. Not everyone uses terminal or command line to use mpv. Notice me!

>>61437075
I don't see the issue with it activating dumb mode for dumb people. Setting up something without verifying that it works is retarded, just use command line during setup to see if there are any errors and such. Not realizing that you're using bilinear (which I assume dumb mode activates) is also stupid.

>>61437118
Something as important as dumb mode should be indicated. Don't be an asshole.

>>61437168
It's indicated in the command line though, right? Where all errors are indicated?

>>61437176
No one uses command line when they have mpv.exe. Judging by your logic the .exe should be removed and use of cmd forced.

>>61417826

I was using mpv since it's drag/drop and you can set it to default open in players so you can just browse with Windows and open that way (which is what I do anyways). But, it's command line, so to use any features more complex than opening/playing, I'd need to do that. So I went with bakamplayer since that has a nice "open copy link" option for streaming. But it hasn't been updated in 2 years.

What other mpv option should I use? mpv itself has the BEST on screen GUI. Add an additional menu and I think it'd be perfect.

Trying out SMplayer right now, and oh my god the GUI is hideous. It looks like a fuckin child's program. The GUI is customizable so I can make it okay, I guess.

>>61437210
I totally use the command line with mpv.exe. Stop pulling shit out of your ass.

>>61437214
You can use the firefox addon "open with", and set mpv as an option there. Then you can just right click any link and open it with mpv.

>>61437222
Congratulations you're the only retard out of 100 people. But sure, fuck everyone as long as your happy, my dude!

>>61437257
1/100 sounds like a huge amount mate. Unless you didn't mean what you posted.

HAHa! Tough luck pal, it was working in (((dumb))) mode all that time because the default backend doesnt work for everyone. Good luck in few years if Vulkan succeeds :^)

>>61437392
WTF. Story of my life. BRB testing dxinterop.

>>61437392
>Shit doesn't work
>Lets ignore all error messages
Smart!

>>61437427
How youre supposed to know it doesn't work? There is executable and videos play so it probably works! Or youre implying any sane wintard will use cmd instead?

>>61437471
>How youre supposed to know it doesn't work?
It looking like shit in 3 "separate" configs is not working in my opinion.

>>61437392
>i'm too retarded to make a simple program work

>>61437392
What makes you think Vulkan will work any better than OpenGL on your broken hardware/platform/drivers?

>>61437392
Literally me. I went back to VLC. Im NOT testing mpv again though. Fuck it.

Simple =/= retard friendly
mpv is simple, VLC is retard friendly.

>>61437631
>doesn't work out of the box for everyone
Again that's your own fault, as it works for pretty much everyone out of the box just fine.

>>61437631
It did work out of the box though, it just didn't work the way it was expected to work when changed to a configuration different from out of the box configuration. And even then it still "worked".

>>61437392
>>mpc dies

False, it's not dead at all and even it was dead mpv-be has active development and more regular development than mpc-hc for the past 5 years.

No it's not you blind fuck.
It's exactly the same algorithm, skightly tuned for less sharpness and ringing.
The difference us so small that you won't be able to see it without zoom.
