Hello mpv fans and 4chan retards.
- NGU-AA Medium is better and faster than any ravu variants.
- NGU Sharp High is better than SSSR with same resources usage.
- Interpolation is very much slower than madVR smoothmotion.
- Adaptive sharpen is a disaster on madVR and mpv, but faster on mpv.
- However, madVR has better/smarter sharpening filters.

No one knows yet. It happens on last mpv build by shinchiro. Stats.lua also got updated few days ago. It's either of those at fault.
>>61916624
I'd rather have him do motion interpolation stuff.
I'm not interested in yet another scaler where you need a microscope to spot the differences. I'm also not interested in Vulkan for better performance because my GPU does OpenGL just fine already (fast enough for all I need) and I won't need glorious 8K performance for another 10+ years.

<Argon]> shinchiro no, but I noticed some strange problems yesterday as well. usually for the redraw stats when DS is not used. will check later
[...]
<Argon]> shinchiro fyi: regarding your issues, well mpv reports these values. like, only a few of them and always the same ones, that's why it looks "frozen". unless you use display-resample these shouldn't even be there but they are (have always been for me, but were 0 before)
<Argon]> there's also a bug where a graph is incorrectly drawn and moves other graphs out of the screen. this happens because the max value reported by mpv is incorrect. unfortunately, I can't reproduce it anymore and I'd like to confirm it before I complain

>>61929118
https://mpv.io/manual/master/#files-on-windows
>>61929118
The default input is baked in but you can get it at https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/etc/input.conf if you want to edit it/use it as a reference. Put it in the appdata folder or mpv.exe/mpv/input.conf - this works for shinchiro's builds at least.
Is there any quality loss when setting opengl-backend like there is with hwdec?
>>61916686
It's shit to use with kodi you know that right?
>>61929158
Tried this, their was nothing in the AppData\Roaming\mpv\ folder

So if I download this and put it in the folder above that will work? How do I download this. I've never used github before
>>61930284
If you just want to change the mouse axis to control volume, you can make an input.conf file and add just those lines. Anything you don't define will use the defaults.
Click the raw button and then save the page. Or right click it, save link as.
>>61930242

What's the fucking difference? The behavior is the same, the measurements are the same, the result is the same. Whether or not there's a different API call in between doesn't matter one fucking bit you autist

Ok here is what i want, i want to be able to use mpv so it plays movies from a source url, so i don't have a browser open while i play factorio. What websites can help with this, i use yesmovies to stream the latest hd rips, but most of the times the source is segmented into hundreds of miniclips so mpv won't allow the url, i am specifically looking for a website that gives source urls that can be used in mpv.
Thanks
>>61935457
That's the point. According to the people above, the result is _not_ the same. The stats passes, especially for redrawn, look different
>>61935435
linux builds?
are these shitty gradients reason of no dedicated graphic card drivers installed on my Fedora or something in mpv settings?

why do you people insist on using MPVs shit UI?
>>61936121
Changing debanding settings should help. Someone else might have more experience with that. Or you could experiment yourself, documentation should be good enough.
>>61936121
>>61936278
See deband settings in >>61919735, that might be good for your chinese cartoons. Or not, for all I know.
>>61936121
Increase deband-threshold I used 96 on your image to get this but 64 gave me okay results and would probably not be noticeable in motion.
>>61919735
Man do you even know what all this garbage does?
>>61935872
Well those people must be mistaken. The code is the same as before. It's always been that way.
>>61936121
Did you capture that screenshot from the source (“s”) or from the window (“ctrl+s”)? If the former, then your VO settings have nothing to do with it and the banding is part of the source. Increasing the debanding settings can help get rid of it.
(If you aren't already, make sure you're using opengl-hq, that has debanding on by default)

LOL
Do we manually need to force ffmpeg to use multiple threads? I was encoding a mp3 to opus and it was holding 1 core (out of 4) at 100%. Is the libopus encoder just shit because a few days ago I was encoding avishit to h264 and it used all 4 cores at close to max, I was impressed.
>>61937543
Would you be down to upload that entire series for me anon, preferably on mega.
Do either AC3 2.0 or flac 5.1 have shit hardware support?
I tried watching Clannad on my Nexus 7 and it wasn't accelerated with either of them, though it can handle x265 video.
Can someone ask bjin what scale and cscale he uses with RAVU?

[spoiler]mpv.conf[/spoiler]
I'm a retard that doesn't know the difference between media players. Please help me understand things here.
I've used VLC all my life, mainly because it's the only thing I've ever known, and it seems to do its job just fine.
In what aspects does MPV have the upper hand on VLC? What makes MPV objectively superior to VLC? I genuinely don't know the difference. I'm not shitting on MPV. I just want to know what the differences are, because I have no idea.
Thanks.
>>61943454
check the last couple threads
this gets asked all the time
>>61943454
I should also note that I'm on Windows (muh gaymez) if that complicates things at all.
>>61943471
Thanks, I'll take a look around.
>>61943484
If you are happy with vlc why are you here?
>>61943678
I'm just seeking something new, something objectively better. I see these MPV threads here every day so naturally I'm curious about its capabilities and strengths over VLC. I would like to use the superior media player.
>>61943454
https://haasn.xyz/posts/2016-12-25-falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-%5Bvideo-stuff%5D.html
Not directly related but still a semi-relevant read. It goes to show just how much there is to screw up when it comes to video. VLC gets a lot of these wrong.
>>61943824
•mpv devs are smart
•mpv is faster at EVERYTHING than every other video player
•devs actually care about having good defaults
•customizable and intuitive UI
•scriptable
•very well-documented
•having a config file in addition to good documentation is way better than every other method of settings management
•code is constantly being refactored and made cleaner
also, devs are weebs, meaning:
•has very good and fast subtitle renderer built-in that can handle complicated typesetting
•plays odd or exotic videos correctly (e.g. BT.2020 color space, H.265/HEVC, 10-bit anime)
>>61944297
>•mpv is faster at EVERYTHING than every other video player
Nope, mpv is slower at OpenGL 1/2 than e.g. MPlayer and probably also VLC. Fixed function code got removed completely in mpv, with OpenGL 3 and programmable shaders completely replacing it. So you can get better performance on decades-old hardware using MPlayer.

Why would I decode anything in software if it can be done in hardware, "nigger".
>>61945328
why would you decode anything in """"hardware"""" when you can do it better and more efficiently in software
>>61943454
- VLC doesn't have the same quality opengl rendering and upscaling.
- Seeking through video with VLC is much slower
- mpv has youtube-dl support, arguably making it the best player for watching online videos/streams there is.
- The codebase is much smaller, in general cleaner and more correct code
- Not bloated like VLC
- No ugly GUI or graphical toolkit dependencies
- Very active development
- Many command line options and almost all functionality can be provided through the command line.
- Configuration is done by putting command-line options in a text file, which is very easy, simple, and portable.
- VLC has a worse implementation of ASS, I've seen it fuck up subs before.
There is reasons to use VLC though:
- DVD menu support
I'm using autoload script to play the next file in folder.
Is there a way to assign a keybind to play the next/previous files instead of clicking the small arrows?
>>61945614
and VLC *still* corrupts the video after seeking

Consider what you are even saying. Hardware is worse than software. You need to leave /g/ and not come back ever again.

Mpv on Android.
There was a 50 min Avi. Till 15 min everything was fine. Then mpv played video at 2x speed and audio in normal speed. Seeking the video resynced the audio and video. How to fix this.
>>61947240
>Mpv on Android
There's one on android?
Does it support network stream/playing URLs?
>>61946809
vo=opengl is the default, so it shouldn't matter if you use it or not.
Use vo=xv if you have a shitbox, or vo=direct3d and vo-direct3d-prefer-stretchrect on Windows.
>>61947482
>vo=xv
Wasn't this removed?
>>61947512
Nope. It's still useful for shit computers:
https://mpv.io/manual/master/#video-output-drivers-xv
>>61947529
>shit computers
Like what?
Is there a guide for setting the VO? like what settings goes well?
From my experience C2D, can run opengl-hq with deband set to no, for up to 720p with no issues.
>>61946932
werks for me :^)
I hope you know you need youtube-dl
>>61947553
Computers more shit than that, I guess. You know if you need vo=xv when all the other VOs don't work. It's literally the worst in terms of quality (apart from meme ones like tct,) but it's the most likely to work at full speed on old or bad hardware.
>>61947614

No idea. I haven't tried RAVU yet.
This might be a stupid question but how can i make ravu or any bjin's prescaler work?
I put it into the config file and it loaded (according to the log) but i didn't notice any change in both quality and performance. It also didn't show up in stats.lua
>>61947771
Eh, guess i overestimated you. Sorry.
>>61947791
>It also didn't show up in stats.lua
Then they dont work. How old is your videocard? Do you use the latest mpv and stats.lua?
>>61947806
>How old is your video card?
It's an NVS 5400M on a T530
>Do you use the latest mpv and stats.lua
I'm using mpv-git and last time i build it was yesterday. For stats.lua, i might need to check.
Also, all the chroma variants worked fine though.
>>61947482
oh so If I put it in the config, I'm using it twice. Hence the lag?
>>61947841
>It's an NVS 5400M on a T530
I think it requires shader model 4.0 to work so youre out of luck.
>>61947858
No, that's not how it works. If you put it in the config, it shouldn't make a difference at all, since vo will be set to 'opengl' whether you use the config or not.
>>61914276
BRRAAAAP
>>61947872
I'm sure my NVS 5400M supports shader model till 5.0 .
And i forgot to mention, nnedi3 worked once when there were still "-all" variant on bjin's github, but the performance was too poor so i decided to not use it
>>61947841
>Also, all the chroma variants worked fine though.
Are you on windows? Try opengl-backend=dxinterop. It also only works when video needs upscaling.
>>61948117
I'm on linux and was upscaling from 720p to 1600x900
>>61934949
Yep. At the moment, nothing should be different, but this code was extracted because of the possibility of adding a D3D11 presenter to the dxinterop backend, or a D3D11 RA renderer (though don't get your hopes up for the latter: there's been absolutely no work done towards it yet. Vulkan will happen first.)
