Subtitles question.

When i have an mkv file that already has subs inside of it AND I also have an srt/ass file (same basename as the mkv), why doesn't mpv load also the srt/ass and offer it as one of the subs I can cycle through?

Often, why I grab some japanese movies that comes in mkv format, there are better subs available so it's a pain to use it with mpv.

mpv devs, please make it happen. offer srt/ass track even when the mkv has a sub track.

haasn implemented it to help stuttering like you are experiencing with 4k+ video, it renders video directly to vram eliminating overhead from going back and forth from system ram

Why though? Unless you need more than 30fps @8K you can sw decode on any decent CPU.

multiple stream decode

>>61997047
Both valid points. Unfortunately the VP9 ABI isn't stable (libvpx 1.6 broke back compatibility) so I wouldn't expect that any time soon.

Somewhat off topic, but just noticed that some videos on youtube have chapter markings. Is this solely because the uploader has placed time markings in the video description or is it part of the video?

I was thinking about trying some shaders, but I'm too lazy to test them. I'm way more satisfied with the mpv jinc quality than I was with the madvr jinc.

>>62000505
>I'm way more satisfied with the mpv jinc quality than I was with the madvr jinc.
I noticed that too when switched from madvr. I compared Jinc and nnedi3. Both looked better on mpv vs madvr. They are much faster too now.

>>62000174
>Due to OpenGL's rather severe limitations when it comes to timing, the only way to reliably figure out when vsyncs happen is to actually draw a frame on every vsync. The consequence of this is that, even for 24 Hz video, you need to draw frames at 60 Hz even if they are the same frame over and over again - thus increasing power usage by a factor of 2x-3x in such a case.

Ive read both. I still dont understand what kind of frames are created for 30FPS on 60Hz display. There is no judder so why wont it get disabled automatically like for 60FPS on 60Hz display. There is also not a word on what display-sync to use when your display refresh is exact multiple of video fps. ie 30FPS on 60Hz display.

If I use RAVU r3 smoothtest 1, should I use scale or cscale at all?

>>62002416
>should I use scale or cscale at all?
You dont have a choice. scale and cscale will be used for offset.

>>62002449
So should I still use ewa_lanzcos then?

>>62002465
Yeah.

Interpolation is a meme.

cscale will still be used to correct minor offset. An EWA scaler like haasnsoft is recommended for the cscale setting.

       --video-sync=<audio|...>
              How the player synchronizes audio and video.

              If you use this option, you usually want to set it to display-resample to enable a timing mode that tries to not skip or repeat  frames  when
              for example playing 24fps video on a 24Hz screen.

              The  modes  starting  with  display-  try to output video frames completely synchronously to the display, using the detected display vertical
              refresh rate as a hint how fast frames will be displayed on average. These modes change video  speed  slightly  to  match  the  display.  See
              --video-sync-...   options  for fine tuning. The robustness of this mode is further reduced by making a some idealized assumptions, which may
              not always apply in reality.  Behavior can depend on the VO and the system's video and audio drivers.  Media files must use constant  framer‐
              ate.  Section-wise  VFR might work as well with some container formats (but not e.g. mkv). If the sync code detects severe A/V desync, or the
              framerate cannot be detected, the player automatically reverts to audio mode for some time or permanently.

1. `display-resample` is still useful even if your video rate EXACTLY matches the display rate, because it will also smooth out timestamp glitches. Matroska files (.mkv) in particular have lossy timestamp encoding which can lead to spurious duplicated or dropped frames even in otherwise ideal scenarios, simply because the

2. There's no guarantee that your audio hardware won't drift. There's no guarantee that your vsync clock won't drift. Even if the specifications indicate that they run at 59.94 Hz and 48000 kHz respectively, that could be 59.95 Hz and 47998 Hz in reality. Drift happens. madVR's “one frame drop in X days” bullshit figures are just calculated on paper. Unless you actually test for 5 days in a row, you have no way of guaranteeing that.

3. Not all content matches what you think it does. Just beacuse much of your anime is 23.976 Hz on paper doesn't mean you won't run into unusual or even VFR sources elsewhere (youtube videos, screen recordings, etc.). What will you do in those cases? You can't have a mode for every single possible source, and switching refresh rates in the middle of playback is problematic anyway so madCustomRes shit won't work for VFR. (It usually takes the monitor a while to adjust)

4. DS is better *at* handling delayed/mistimed frames (which will happen whether you want to or not, for example if you resize the window or go into fullscreen mode and mpv needs to compile more meme shaders or whatever). It can usually smooth out the dropped frames without further glitches.

In summary, the only reason to ever turn off DS is if your hardware can't handle it. Even setting “display-vdrop” will be better than “audio” timing mode.

Yes, vulkan can absolutely help with that, because part of the whole point of vulkan is that you get direct control over the swapchain and can queue the same frame multiple times. Btw, it's also possible that some modern OpenGL platforms can do the same (i.e. control the swapchain). Part of the vulkan refactors is making the mpv internal code use system-independent abstractions for rendering, swapchain management, windowing etc. instead of hard-coding it to OpenGL like it used to. So in theory, it's possible we could also add support for modern OpenGL swapchain extensions (as a separate “swapchain” type compared to the old “swap buffers and pray” approach).

Vulkan also helps with many other things:

- Gives us more or less direct control over the hardware, allowing us to do neat things like async compute, micro-optimizations that would be impossible otherwise, telling the GPU *exactly* where we want to allocate our textures, etc.

- Allows us to control the swapchain depth, which allows you to trade latency in exchange for better performance and smoother playback by rendering as many frames ahead-of-time as you want to. For example, if your GPU sometimes has rendering spikes where it takes 20ms to render a frame, but your swapchain depth is 8, then it will just temporarily go down to “7” or “6” and play “catch up” afterwards. Basically think of the swapchain as an extra output queue that allows us to render frames in advance. This will *also* help with the scenario you described.
(cont)

>>62003811 (cont)
- Allows us to run multiple GPU commands in parallel, for example image transfers, rendering and even dispatching compute shaders (on GPUs with async compute support). Some of these can hypothetically even run at the same time, so you could present one frame while rendering another. Since vulkan has explicit synchronization (compared to OpenGL's implicit global synchronization), the GPU is no longer limited by the assumption that everything could access everything else.

- Possibly other benefits that I haven't thought of

It means the timestamps are inaccurate. Is this matroska? If so, that's a known matroska limitation. You could try something like MP4 instead, which uses exact/lossless timestamps. (But careful: Just remuxing from MKV to MP4 will probably not help, you'd also have to regenerate the PTS)

>>62005987
>Do i need interpolation with that VFR video to remove judder?
Normally, yes
>Or do i just set my display to even or multiple of the container FPS be?
It needs to be a multiple of *all* the framerates that the video will actually be playing at. So if the video goes between 24 and 30 Hz, then you need to set your monitor to lcm(24,30) = 120 Hz to play both at the same time without judder.

Yo is it normal to have it have this many mistimed frames? Only one dropped and I think that's from going full screen. Also, it doesn't like to keep up with 85hz always as seen here.

>>62005926
mpv uses libavcodec (part of FFmpeg) which is linked into the executable. Your package manager will automatically install `ffmpeg` if you install `mpv`, so there's no need to worry about it.

>nv12

>>62006009
If that only happens at the beginning and then stops increasing for the rest of playback, that's pretty normal. Your GPU often takes a frame or two to spin up to full speed. Your OpenGL driver also needs to spend some time allocating resources like textures, buffers etc.; which typically happens on first use. If you're not using a shader cache, then shader compilation will also trigger some amount of processing time that needs to be done by your OpenGL driver.

So the first few frames will usually stutter; as well as any time you change something that requires resources to be reallocated (for example switching from windowed to fullscreen mode).

Hi /mpv/, noob coming through

Right now, the only setting in my mpv.conf file is "profile=opengl-hq". I want to set up upscaling that looks good for BOTH anime and live-action stuff.

I'm reading the mpv man page's "OpenGL renderer options" page, and don't understand what a lot of the stuff means. Should I be using only "--scale", or are "--cscale", "--dscale", "--tscale" also important? Could I have some settings recommendations? I have a good nvidia graphics card and I'm not too concerned about performance.

Its UI is locked to the same resolution as the video it's playing? That seems like an odd design decision.

don't be such a literal nigga

Is that the default UI for your mpv?

If so, you're on a version so old it belongs in a museum

>>62008298
That's definitely not default behavior and definitely not happening here. Something is messed up on your end.

dunno what to tell ya, it's just a clean install of mint mate and then sudo apt install mpv

just for the sake of thoroughness i went back and made sure the repo was added and then updated it and now it looks different but still really bad.

also that is apparently all the UI this shit has, no menu, no right-click popups, nothin. i'm gonna go see if mpc-hc runs in wine instead.

I don't know what you are doing but you are doing something very wrong

>>62010120
type

mpv --version

in terminal and paste the output

or mpv -v
