JEEEEEEEEEEEB

it's compton. I've always had shit luck with compton. it's basically abandonware at this point.
try disabling it.

yes, but recently someone revived compton, yshui made compton great again.

you should try without it to make sure.
compton has an ancient pipeline.it would take a team of devs a year to rewrite it.

just tested with compton, same thing, dropped frames. Oh well, I didn't have this problem with my gtx 750ti before, it probably is just the gpu performance, I'll wait for my new cpu and see if it works better.
Thanks user.

user, just ask for help if you need it.

You literally fucking couldn't a few months ago when I tried it. It was a known defect. Have they fixed it?

Mind explaining how?

And none of that changes the fact you have to literally script it to get it working. (As if AviSynth weren't bad enough)

>can't see chapter marks
that's what the little marks are on the osc

do what I did and bind it to page up/down.

>>can't use single instance
Quite possibly the DUMBEST behavior ever. I always have 3-6 videos open and it would drive me nuts if I could only have one open.

I'm not a fucking keyboarder. Can you add buttons to jump between chapters (even if it requires complex scripting)? Yes or no?

Good thing some programs have options! Not this one, though.

you're clearly too stupid to use a computer. stick to a phone/tablet. mpv is way beyond your intellectual reach.

>I'm not a fucking keyboarder

Is this where I'm supposed to say use mpv.net or some frontend

Download a "front-end" for mpv. There's plenty out there. use google.

Still no HDR output.

>Mind explaining how?
There are supposed to be notches on on the seekbar by default.
>And none of that changes the fact you have to literally script it to get it working.
Not really. Default mpv is fine. Some keyboard shortcuts may be unintuitive at first (e.g. 0/9 for volume control), but otherwise you can use it ootb without problems.
And even if you want to configure it, I always thought that mpv, with it's well documented options, is far easier to tweak than VLC.

*proper

That is definitely not HDR output.

that's def HDR. try it on VLC and see how shit it is.

save as osc.lua in scripts folder
put "no-osc" in mpv.conf

You
just
KNOW

sweet! thanks!

do you know of any OSC that replaces the title bar and allows you to have close/min/max buttons inside of the mpv? like that IINA player for mac?

I'd really like to remove the titlebar but still want buttons...

Attached: 1546310665595.jpg (1999x1117, 185K)

I think that's only possible with UWP.

scorpioplayer.com/

So no.

I like mpv. Maybe anyone knows how to double tap to seek on android version of mpv, can't find configs for touch anywhere.

It's definitely not "only possible with UWP." There are plenty of Win32 programs with custom titlebars. You're posting from one. It would be pretty easy to make a libmpv frontend on Windows that looked like IINA, but nobody's done it yet.

How can I stop a command that I execute inside mpv with the "run" command?
Is there a way to maybe toggle it to start/stop when you hit the key again that you defined to run the command?

VA or IPS?

Do you have an HDR TV or are you being intentionally obtuse?

Yes, if you only play 1080p videos. If you also plan to play 720p footage, you should test what luma upscaler you like most (FSRCNNX only doubles the resolution and the result of SSSR depends on the base scaler used). profile=gpu-hq sets spline36 by default. You might want to test other popular alternatives like ewa_lanczossharp.
You could also look into chroma scalers, but the benefits are rather small. KrigBilateral is probably too resource heavy for your situation, but again, you can try the different in-built scalers and see if you have any particular preferences.

Is there a way I can have autoload but it won't automatically load the next video in the folder, like it'll just stop and won't immediately start the next video until i press next?

Someone merge my PRs

Does MPV look as decent as MPC with madvr? Is there any level of customization to video quality in this?

Those buttons aren't for JUMPING BETWEEN CHAPTERS you literal fucking retard

Is there a difference between going to the next/previous chapter and jumping between them?

Yes, You could have checked out the links in OP and see that mpv is more customizable and has just has just as good shaders. It's more lightweight too. I can run FSRCNNX_x2_8-0-4-1.glsl on my laptop.

Bet you're a virgin incel

It's definitely heavily customizable. As for which one provides better looking output, you won't get an objective answer, because a) there's a lot of personal preference involved when it comes to video playback and b) most people are heavily biased towards their own player of choice, so they'd always defend it.

One thing I can say for sure though, madVR is better when it comes to HDR.

>One thing I can say for sure though, madVR is better when it comes to HDR.
Not really. Maybe on windows until Jeeb merges this. You could also try building yourself. github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/5804

>mpv.net 5.0 just released
HOLY BASED

It is no secret that the default tone mapping produces subpar results and even when you tweak it there's no general optimal solution.
github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/6405

HDR != HDR->SDR tonemapping

The real solution is to just get an HDR monitor. They aren't expensive anymore.

He's handing her a turd

>HOLY BASED
Think again!
>in the entire project the term addon was replaced with the term extension, unfortunately this will break user extensions. The reason for this drastic change is that there exist too many different terms, addons, addins, extensions, modules, packages etc.. mpv.net follows Google Chrome as the worlds most popular extendable app, Chrome uses the term Extension.

Fair enough. Let me correct myself.
>One thing I can say for sure though, madVR is better when it comes to watching HDR on an SDR monitor.

YES. Thank you.

I actually might have lied. Apparently monitor tonemapping might be shit as well (no OS really has native HDR APIs except for Windows atm). I admittedly haven't really tested mine much since I don't watch much HDR.

kek chrome warns me that mpvnet 5.0 might be dangerous software

New stax build is out!

you can always create buttons in the osc to do this kind of functions.

That icon refresh is ugly. At this point is better using vanilla mpv icon.

No, but those buttons aren't for either of those.

They are though. Don't confuse them with the little arrows above them, which are used to navigate a playlist.

Chrome is telling me it's potentially dangerous

Wait how the fuck is a web browser telling you that another program is dangerous software? Does mpv.net come with some disgusting webshit or something?

based retard

Potplayer is the best media player. Prove me wrong. You can't.

That is most likely a false alarm, bud. File is safe according to Virus Total. Don't believe me? See for yourself.

It's not that I don't believe you. I just wanted to point out that chrome is giving a false positive warning on it.

>you can always create buttons in the osc to do this kind of functions.
Do you know of any good examples that could be used as a starting point?

>chrome

Chrome is the mpv.net approved browser. See

and chrome is shit and soon going to be shittier

what to do if the video buffers , while with vlc it works fine ?

It's called celluloid now. Also see

>It's called celluloid now
Disgusting

You can try to modify the osc itself
You can start with it , read how each thing work, like the pause button and then create new ones based on it.

Eww that's such an ugly sounding name.

I'm running Manjaro, I wanna try mpv but I'm too retarded to get it to work through the AUR. I tried yay mpv-git but I can't find the software anywhere on my machine. Someone help please?

just download the source

the dependencies are in some readme without question in the git repo.

Hey guys, I just checked out this piece of software, since I always see it getting shilled here.
Looks and uses really bad. Cluttered GUI, ugly inconsistent icons, apparently people need a tutorial to use it.
The Linux of media players. Thanks, but I'll just continue using windows media player, which just works(tm). Have a nice day.
