You'd be using a literal toaster, in which case use hardware decoding.

are the conf files universal across operating systems?
I wanna know whether it would work without tweaks if I just paste my conf files from linux to windows

>based

There are some differences, but only with things that relate to the OS. Like --vo=direct3d wouldn't work on Linux. Or --glsl-shader="C:\mpv\shaders\FSRCNNX_x2_8-0-4-1.glsl".

thx user

should i even bother with the shader thing to have a good looking media. or i won't even notice it?

dont bother, it's a meme

Either try it and find out if you notice it or not, or don't try it out. There is a difference if that's what you're asking.

i installed it on my on the go laptop and i usually use it to watch kamen rider stuff when im on the road away from home. so far anime is ok hasn't tested it on live action stuff i wonder if it will be better or the same with mpc+madvr but it put a load on my laptop though.

Should be better for live action stuff as well, and better than whatever madvr has to offer, and less intensive.

so which is the good shader option for this i just installed it yesterday and still new in all this. would be glad if someone share something that i can just copy paste though.although i won't mind doing it with a guide.

Read the evaluation of upscalers in the OP. I'd say it's basically FSRCNNX, SSSR, and KrigBilateral, in decreasing order of importance. SSSR only kicking in if FSRCNNX can't perfectly double.
Note, this is all still subjective.

Is there a line to put in the conf so that when I open up a video, if it's too tall it gets resized to fit the screen? Right now half of the top and half of the bottom sometimes gets cut off, and it makes using the controls annoying because i have to resize it manually each time.

>comfy patrician thread

That's the default behaviour, it'll downscale if it's too large.

Give bjin merge rights.

autofit-larger=1280x720 or autofit-larger=90%x80%

Give me merge rights. I promise I won't do anything bad.

bloat

So I spent a lot of time last night trying to find a solution, but to no avail.

Basically what I'm trying to do is this. There is the "geometry" setting which you can place into the config file for window placement of the video, specifically geometry=50%:50% in my case, but I want to be able to assign a hotkey to this setting that resets the window to the center when I move the window for whatever reason.

I tried some stuff but input.conf doesn't recognize geometry as a valid command or something. Please help a brainlet out please.

FSRCNNX doesn't kick in when viewing PNG files. What's the reason?

I believe it's because FSRCNNX doesn't support RGB color space.

Yeah just tried it, it works for grayscale pngs, but not RGB pngs.

I see, thanks.

What's the point? Why don't you create windows like GUI?

I've been using CCCP for about a decade and despite not being updated since ~2014 it handles everything perfectly fine, including x265.

Why should I bother changing to mpv? I am genuinely curios.

>he still uses codec packs
You can't playback the AV1 meme though.

How do I make it so that subtitles take up the entire available window space instead of just the video only?
I'm watching a video that's unfortunately taken on a phone (inverted 16:9) and the subs take up all the available video area leaving the black sides blank.

sub-user-margins or something like that
check the manual

I wish this was addressed in the OP. People like the ability to easily customize scalers and the like.

I've only skimmed the FAQ a little, but it sounds like this is either completely commandline based, or commandline is needed for anything more than the most basic of functions. Surely this is not correct?

It's not, just set it up properly and launch videos by double clicking them.

>he doesn't watch 8K HEVC

>8K HEVC
>not 8K AV1

Well, we don't really have to discuss SW vs. HW decoding for AV1, do we?

...

it's not possible. you should set a keybind with your window manager, or use autohotkey or whatever it is on windows.

But how would a Windows hotkey trigger an MPV behavior?

it's your OS/window managers job to position windows

Bro it has a GUI....................

What's the best config?

vo=caca

that's my joke you filthy piece of shit

Sorry my bad. I didn't see your name on it though.

For a basic setup
profile=gpu-hq
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
# scale=lanczos for a bit sharper image at the cost of slightly more ringing

If you want to go full autism, add FSRCNNX, SSimDownscaler, KrigBilateral and SSSR as shaders.

What version of Google's shaderc works best with mpv and libplace? v2018.0, v2019.0 or git master?
I'm getting messages like vo/gpu/vulkan/libplacebo: Storable format 'rgb32f' has no matching GLSL format qualifier?

That has nothing to do with shaderc. It's just textures missing from your vulkan drivers. It also has no effect on playback either.

Post your torque-progressbar configs.

So mpv is broken on Wayland/Gnome due to incorrect mutter behaviour.
Is using gpu-context=x11egl a safe fix?

Can anyone help with this error? I've googled it but can't figure it out. On Void if that makes a difference

>Wayland/Gnome
Stop using this trash and just switch to sway for a good wayland experience.

But I want the full Red Hat SystemdOS experience

This looks like possibly some broken drivers. Does it work if you force dumb mode with --gpu-dumb-mode?

not him but I agree that sway is awesome, but I couldn't get used to tiling and not having the usual title bar buttons and mouse support.. if only there was a fork that added these features. way cooler is a meme, wont get ready until 2025. i read everything about using sway with a mouse/stacking and i dont like the workarounds, bindsym --border, for_window * floating enable etc
and mvp on sway was the smoothest playback I've ever seen

Is problem in youtube-dl or mpv and is there any chance to configure that it plays football and formula 1 streams in mpv

I don't know why GNOME is so insistent on making their wayland implementation so stupid. It's way easier just to add support for upstream protocols than to use retarded dbus hacks for everything. Their applications could still have ugly CSDs but if they just implemented xdg-decorations people would stop asking what happened to their decorations for non gtk/qt applications.

yeah it's definitely a driver error based on pic related, but i'm too dumb to figure it out

Stop using vdpau.

>kde.org/announcements/kde-frameworks-5.59.0.php
>Implement set_window_geometry
does that mean autofit and everything else works on kwin wayland now?

I actually just use tabbed windows by default for everything. I rarely actual tile (or float) anything. I don't really need lots of mouse support though (just basic clicking shit is fine) so I guess that would be a deal breaker. The "problem" with sway is that it's good enough for the audience that just wants a window manager for wayland so not too many people will bother to use wlroots to write their own even if they might prefer something like openbox or dwm or something.

Got it working friend, thanks :)

Yes, I believe so. set_window_geometry is a part of xdg-shell which is what compositors use to manage surfaces. mpv has had xdg-shell for a long time and the usual geometry/autofit related options all work in sway for instance (no idea about GNOME). It's nice to see KDE take a step forward.

Ok yeah, but what hotkey does that? Or where can I find the settings to assign a hotkey to that function? Alt+Up/Down/Left/Right don't center the window.

Reminder to use "vf=bwdif:parity=tff" because mpv's default deinterlacer sucks ass.

Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise Long Term Servicing Channel doesn't have this problem.

>Watching interlaced content

Watch The Red Shoes and not that crap you capehead cinephile.

bro, any way to use that w3fdif vapoursynth port for using tff with mpv? I followed the manual but I just can't make it work

Anybody else have issues with reddit videos? They seem to have invalid video timestamps sometimes resulting in the video restarting but the audio continuing. Youtube-dl downloads the complete video though, without the invalid timestamps. Trying ytdl:// doesn't work either.
One example of a busted video is reddit.com/r/youseeingthisshit/comments/byfoh3/leave_him_alone/
Any way to fix this? I realize the site's not popular here, but it's still a major site that I'd figure would work properly with mpv.

>KrigBilateral updated getting finally rid of that offset shit

artoriuz is dead, we should delete his deprecated web-spam

Thank fuck. I never trusted the offsets for anything but yuv420 without prescalers.

What even is there to update? All I can think of is expanding the fractional upscaling section, but there's already enough information.

This link works with --ytdl-format=dash-VIDEO-1 hls doesn't.

I wanna stream videos from torrent files and magnets. I wanna just punch in 'mpv' and the the torrent file or magnet. What are my options

>What even is there to update?

warosu.org/g/thread/S71201894#p71214744

Ravu also updated

>comfy bjin

FSRCNNX makes a difference which I can actually detect with my eyes, are there other shaders to pair with it that aren't placebo?

Krigbilateral, but this is only for colours brightness.

Neato, thanks.

ravu-chroma is dead

SSimDownScaler.

>For ravu prescaler, radius setting is indicated in the filename. r3 (with radius=3 setting) shaders are generally recommended, those shaders achieve good balance between performance and quality.
