/mpv/ - the /vim/ media player?

Is the mpv learning curve a myth like vim?
I think people were traumatized by school and big manuals.
This is why mpv needs a beginner guide or tutorial (not manual) with pictures.

Watching videos should not be hard at all.

Config-tweaking is 100% optional after all, what do you need a guide for?

HOW TO INTO MEME PLAYER FOR VIRGINS:
Step 1: Rebind the keys because the defaults are awful. This is done by making input.conf, see the manual for more info.
Step 2: Just watch your shitty pedo cartoons, faggot. Anything more is rice.
Step 3: Cry.

>Is the mpv learning curve a myth like vim?
No, not even close.

There's no learning curve. Install and go. You don't need to configure the shit out of it for placebo. You actually don't need to do diddly fucking dick.

If you absolutely need to do so there are a multitude of config files to look at. Check what each setting in those configs does in the manual and choose what you need yourself. This is not rocket science.

some stuff isnt a placebo, adding profile=opengl-hq made my videos noticeably better. btw I dont watch anime so maybe its not as noticeable in cartoons.

Back on my old toaster, mpv without configuring anything gave me better quality with worse speed compared to mpc with the settings I used (focused solely on speed)

So no, didn't think the quality was bad at all.

What's the /mpv/ hardware/devices shopping list for Christmas?

I'm not saying it's bad, just that it can get better. And it's easy, you just add one line into a text file which is awesome.

When that user was referring configuring the shit out of it he probably meant more than just use opengl-hq

The mpv website needs a comparison like the madVR one!

Are you using video-sync=display-resample without interpolation?
Are you using video-sync=display-resample without changing framerate?
Why?

github.com/haasn/mpvhq-upscalers/blob/master/README.md

Why not on the homepage of the website?

>btw I dont watch anime
Why are you on the Sup Forums then????

Monitor or television for perfect mpv experience? Which one?
I am too poor to buy a 4K projector... :(

monitor. always

Because 99.9% of people who are not braindead videophiles don't give a shit

this is never a question

you always buy a monitor, televisions are full of shitty gimmicks and low quality

Even in the living room with family and/or pet(s)?

Are there 50+ inches good monitors under $300?

>There's no learning curve. Install and go.

HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

sorry but HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

yes and also tell me if there's a 3-story house I can buy for under $5000 please

Does it mean for under $300, there is no good 50+ inches monitors?
Why the fuck are there decent televisions for this price so?

I don't even know anymore...

for $500 you could maybe get a decent 24" monitor. For 30" more like $1000

It's a myth, nobody on Sup Forums are still watching animes.
Maybe they were 10 years ago but not anymore.
Current Sup Forums users are just too old or retarded to use modern social networks or just too lazy to have a social life. It's not a troll.

some of us arent fat pathetic weebs you know.

I don't even config my mpv, I just use everything default.

>$500 -> $1000
It's the price of a good second hand car in my country!

I bought a fully tested second hand Ford Fusion for 650€ last month.

You can get a great 27" (1440p) monitor for $500 or less. Mine cost me $420 and was factory calibrated.

Where the fuck do you live? Venezuela?

IPS? Wide gamut? 10-bit? 120 Hz?

Also 1440p 27" is pretty low DPI

>being this sparkling new

>implying the vim learning curve is a myth
>implying it's a curve and not a cliff

Make Asia Great Again

>It's a myth, nobody on Sup Forums are still watching animes.
kek. not true at all. vast majority of pics posted on here are anime.

>some of us arent fat pathetic weebs you know.
does it make you feel better to come on an anime site and insult anime users? it's like going on gay.com/forum/tech and insulting gays.

your life must be depressing as fuck when you get off on that.

Pretty useless to play 60fps max videos!
What's wrong with low DPI?

Anime posters are 95% bots, dude.
Don't be sad you are not alone.

>What's wrong with low DPI?
Looks like shit

>Pretty useless to play 60fps max videos!
Also useful for 24/60 mixed content

Is haasn preparing a Christmas present for us?
His github activity is pretty inexistent for almost a month.

Has anyone had any success modding the UI?

I wanna add a button that does the screenshot function for when I'm using MPV on my tablet.

Full GPU frame interpolation algo without any soap opera or weird artefacts or blur at all?

stupid anime poster

The file you want to edit is github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/player/lua/osc.lua
Stick it in your scripts folder and add no-osc to your config or it won't load.

He is probably watching anime stuffs.

Oh wow that is nice looking.

Thanks for the help, I'll just have to figure out how LUA works now hah.

On vlc! :D

Daily reminder

And had heart attack. :(

Use this one faggot.

delet

Any plans for a nnedi3/ngu like algo to beat these ewa_* shit upscalers?
Is tritical working on nnedi4?

>snow
>haskell
He is sick... Pneumonia...

Is it better than current mpv antiring?
gist.github.com/igv/08f7183bba2e34d3022b51d9188d26c7

If so why is it not merged into the mpv code?

Oh it doesn't work (bugged) with panscan!

So is this video player basically the figurative equivalent to audiophiles and FLACs?

anyone know why my youtube-dl just hangs when trying to download a youtube video? It eventually works for no particular reason after like 5-10 minutes. All I get is this:

$ youtube-dl youtube.com/watch?v=jh39-4el-YY
[youtube] jh39-4el-YY: Downloading webpage

it's updated and everything.

tritical is fucking dead

is this the mpv general?

Someone give me the best quality config

Holy shit dude just download it and drag video files over to the mpv icon, it's not hard

or just set it as your default player and click the file...

not sure, have you tried putting a user agent in your config?

does that mean I use my user name from youtube? I tried that but it didn't help.

The only thing mpv needs at this point is a stanfalone GUI configuration tool for those crybabies who want to rice but can't into reading more than cople of sentences. You know, with checkboxes, sliders, interactive tips and lolis.

nevermind I see it has to do with the browser. Where would I find one that might work?

put this in your conf
ytdl=yes
hls-bitrate=max
ytdl-format=bestvideo[height=1080]+bestaudio

[protocol.https]
force-window=immediate
cache=yes
cache-default=1000000 # size in KB

mpc-qt would probably be best for those users, but it's pretty rough right now.
You would probably have to provide your own lolis though.

gnome mpv is decent

github.com/gnome-mpv/gnome-mpv

okay I did that and I just get pic related. It's just a black screen and doesn't play anything.

and now it finally started playing

Yea it shouldnt take that long if you have decent internet speed. It usually takes me less than 15 seconds. Not sure man

Yes it used to be instant until like a month ago when it started taking like 5+ minutes. It doesn't happen on twitch or other sites.

have you tried a vpn? hows it play in your browser?

it plays fine in a browser. Haven't tried vpn

I was thinking they throttled you or something, but maybe not if your browser works fine.

What config do I use to get linked mkvs to work?

We call that config "shotgun mouthwash"

You guys try the android-mpv yet? Works gud

I'm not a degenerate that watches cartoons in public so no

Not seeing it in the manual. Why does a video player need a 200 page one?

Because playing video is a much, much more complex task than it might appear to be.
I'll admit there should probably be a more easily navigable abridged version, but you can't fault them for having thorough documentation.

mpv was giving me playback issues on a 720p anime episode at fullscreen. so if that's going to be the case I just won't use it anymore. and yes, it's a fault of mpv and not my computer, that shit shouldn't happen on an i7 3770K.

But you're a degenerate that watches cartoons

I'm a private degenerate.

A privanerate if you will

What kind of playback issues?

framedrops

I watch anime.

Why?

can i insytall this from the ubutu repo

have you tried it?

what are you faggots watching?

...

mpv filename how fucking hard is that?

get out

>that duplication
jesus christ

Is there a way to get the exact frame of the video on mpv?
