Thread 282181797

The other day I saw a thread here about video player and many of the comments were praising the shit of mpv.
Since in my anine library i have videos that range the 480p-1080p and with the promises that can enhance their quality with mpv i decided to download
The thing is that i created the fucking mpv.conf file with the video settings inside and ithey dont have effect, i put that file on the appdata folder on the mpv_config folder and nothing worked.
I followed all the instructions, download the portable, extract, install.bat... and nothing
And in internet cant find any info, seems that its a niche play after all
Should i stick on vlc?

vo=gpu-next
profile=gpu-hq
hwdec=auto-safe
scale=spline36
cscale=spline36
dscale=mitchell
deband=yes
deband-grain=4
saturation=1.15

Thats what i paste on the mpv.conf file

Potplayer is all you need.

If you installed mpv as portable then the mpv.conf needs to be in the install folder.

>>282181854
kek, imagine

>>282181854
should i drop it in the extracted folder?

>>282181797 (OP)
no you should stick with mpv, it's made by autistic transgenders who are obsessed with video transcoding (and subtitles). vlc can't compete. literally just look at all the anime girl pfps on the git repo. says it all really.

>>282181812
Is potplayer better than mpv? Chatgpt told me that btw

>>282181986
It just werks. Even heavy films run perfectly on my crappy laptop. I’ve never once had problems with it processing files or throwing errors in years.

>>282181998
At this point i gonna try it just because mpv simply doesnt work

>>282181797 (OP)
>saturation=1.15
Be glad that it didn't work.

>>282181797 (OP)
>>282181812
>>282181825
Irfanview, it just animes... oh wait, i removed the codec pak for that because it was buggy. MPCHC is fine.

just play the animes with bilinear filter and alt vsync for best compat and smoothness. grain is gay.

>>282181881
Yes. That's what the install folder is.

vlc still works for me

>>282181812
I'll second that potplayer recommendation, no issues and when everyone else is talking about the subs having signs being out of sync it looks perfect.

>>282181797 (OP)
Go to /g/
If mpv setup is really difficult, MPV.com is a more friendly version, and Seed of Might has a prebuilt one that just werks.

>>282181797 (OP)
If you can't install mpv and write a config file, that's a skill issue.

What's a good player that can do this as well?
I don't hate vlc but the playback bar has shitty aim.

>>282182195
ugh

>>282181797 (OP)
>spline36
>mitchell

>>282182195
I think this is the right option for pot player, there is also a ftp/http option though.

What do you want to enhance? It's not pike your 480p anime will suddenly become 1080p

>>282182237
guess I'll try

>>282181797 (OP)
>i have videos that range the 480p-1080p and with the promises that can enhance their quality
By upscaling it or what? Don't bother.
Install K-Lite Codec Pack with default config, that's everything you'll ever need in terms of quality.

>>282182274
>Install K-Lite Codec Pack with default config, that's everything you'll ever need in terms of quality.
That will do about the same, but with more work.

>>282181797 (OP)
>Can't even select subtitles
Minimalism is a mental illness.

imagine not being able to setup a fucking media player

>>282181986
It certainly is easier to use. I love the webdav integration.

>>282182310
More work how? Installing k-lite codec pack takes 1 minute tops so it's far less time consuming than his whack a mole problems with mpv.

>>282182310
>more work
How?? It's literally run the installer and forget.

>>282182347
MPV doesn't need a setup faggot

>>282182244
Its only a show that is a dvdrip.

>>282182384
Then why go through all that pain? Could have just used mpv out of the box.

>>282182361
>>282182371
The mpv portable version only needs to be unzipped. No installation needed. It's simpler. Also, codec packs always cause problems because they're system-wide plugins.

>>282182310
On vlc i use denoise, deband and some other filters, and im quite glad with what vlc offers but apparently mpv can do that and has better upscalers (source the internet), that why i want to try it

>>282182410
Ye i did that and the app works, but the mpv.conf settings doesnt work

>>282182409
Its my favorite show also

>>282182410
>codec packs always cause problems because they're system-wide plugins.
there's why you use VLC which don't need codecs installed!

>>282182423

smells like a gamergate moment.

>>282182456
And what about it?

Why is it so easy to bait autists into giving you free tech support

This is the lowest IQ thread I've seen on /a/
>I nstalled the Firefox and want change theme but where is theme folder local or roaming or ??? I think my Firefox is broken.

>>282182566
i didn't . use VLC

>>282182566
Easy as shit stuff isn't tech support saar

>>282181797 (OP)
You see, when you installed MPC it came with a virus called System32 that is preventing you from using any other video player. Open C:/Windows/ and I bet it's there. If you delete the folder it should let you use mpv.conf

>>282182195
>>282182202
anon, mpv can do literally everything

>>282182569
I tried many players in the past, mpc+madvr for example. Mpv is just not very intuitive

>>282182612
It doesn't have to be intuitive.
Manuals exist for a reason.

>>282182607
If I have to remember a bunch of commands I'm dropping it.

>>282182612
>Mpv is just not very intuitive
It doesn't aim to be. I don't know why anons here want to "sell" it to the wrong target audience. It's like telling a phone poster that downloading is better than streaming.

>>282182618
I followed the manual and didnt work, thats why the thread.
Also the manual is too focus in ui costumization and key bindi gs that setting up the video xp

Nevermind, I fixed it anons. My computer wasn't plugged in.

>>282181916
this desu, even the most autistic of linux distributions ships with vlc out of the box.

>>282182612
It supporting Windows at all is a kludge, just like Windows is as an operating system. It works perfectly exactly as expected on its native Linux platform, just like most things run better on Linux when they're not commercialshit slapped together with string and sellotape that won't let you look at the source code out of shame

>>282182343
But you can? That's one of the few things that are clickable in the UI even

>>282182195
Do what?

>>282182804
They mostly come with the video player of the DE's application suite though, which is going to just be a frontend for mplayer anyway

I’ve been using mov for years and would never even consider changing to anything else

>>282182343
Open the video file and press 'J' on your keyboard baka
If the subtitles are in a separate .srt file you can drag the file onto the open mpv window playing your video file and they'll load in.

Has anyone actually bought codecs from Microsoft's Windows store so they could play anime on the windows media player?

my mpc-hc just works
i've never felt any reason to sidegrade to mpv. if anything the Cartel shilling it made me suspect it's shittier, since the Cartel are a bunch of trolls and CrunchyRoll employees.

>>282181797 (OP)
Told you to just you MPC-HC, retard

>>282183041
Too little benefit for now

>>282183336

>>282181797 (OP)
I use MPV to read manga, but how do I zoom in?

>>282183129
There’s an icon for subtitle selection in the video scroll

>>282182804
Vlc x mpv fanfic where?

>>282183623
Pressing a button on your keyboard is easier than clicking the icon

>>282183764
Not when I'm leaning on my chair like a monkey

>>282181797 (OP)
>tinkering with the encoding
Why? My mpv.conf only has a few settings to stop it from closing and setting the main language to jap and it works just fine.

>>282182429
only if you use meme shaders
vlc supports lanczos scaling which is about as good as it gets with traditional scaling algorithms, it's also the default in mpv
spline36 is almost the exact same as lanczos and indistinguishable from it in practice, but it makes autists feel special for some reason
ewa_lanczosharp is pretty much a meme, it's almost never appreciably better than lanczos (or spline36) and way more computationally expensive

>>282181797 (OP)

This. Having K-Lite Codec Pack installed fucked with the in-game videos in Trails in the Sky. That was the main reason I stopped using it.

>>282181797 (OP)
just use mpc hc. never updated it in like a decade. it just works

>>282184250

That's an interesting discovery.

>>282184726
Anime = music. It's a singular word. You can say 2 anime series like you say 2 music tracks and not sound retarded calling things animes and musics.

>>282182423
what the fuck mpv is based?

>>282184291
that happened with any codec pack. the cccp also fucked with trails in the sky
the video file was a .ogg and it tried to open it in your media player instead of in the game

VLC is fine. It isn't 2014 anymore

>>282181797 (OP)
i just run it as is and it werks
vlc started stuttering on some files and was always slower to boot up, so i dropped it
mpv only has problems with cancer flashing gradient subs, but i run it on an old laptop so fair enough

>>282185160
it should be. nothing much changes in each iteration of mpv

>>282183253
exactly this

>>282181797 (OP)
You fell for this troonware. It's been shilled by discord troons (mpv contributors) on /g/ for some years. There are like 200-300 posts made by only 4-5 avatarfags gossipping about some drama amongst the community

liked potplayer, only issue i ran into was that some audio files i had sounded extra crunchy for a reason i couldn't figure out.

>>282186055

More than that they want complete control over anime distribution, and they will run SubsPlease until the last trannylator who didn't take their money dies, and make life as miserable as possible for anyone who uses their rips by pushing out the wrong sub track for the episode and bullying you for not using a perfectly fine media player that's just not really meant for the operating system you use

>>282186576
Nobody reads that, do you read the terms of service agreements?

>>282186103
pretty much, like something was introducing noise. i remember fixing it when i first tried potplayer out, then i reinstalled windows on a new build without backing up my config, then couldn't figure out what the cause was after that

I still use MPC

>>282186573
>Nothing.
How do I learn the way of Nothing?

>>282183253
>won't use software because people talk about it
Hey mpc-hc is fucking awesome.
Now you can't use it because I shilled it. haha

>>282186345
You don't really need to tinker with mpv beyond setting it to not close when the video ends and setting a screenshot folder.
You just figure things you want to do by yourself though. For instance, I wanted to decrease the size of the video inside the window because when I'm eating, my face is closer to the monitor. Eventually I found out I could add the following shortcuts to input.conf:

Alt+- add video-zoom -0.1
Alt+= add video-zoom 0.1

Do I need it? No. But it's neat to have it and I just needed to Google for a solution. Nowadays you can also use an AI to spoonfeed you quicker.

>>282181797 (OP)
>enhance their quality
The fuck you on about? The real world isn’t some tv show or movie that has bullshit enhance video/image magic.
Who ever told you any media player can do that is a faggot retard, or maybe you are a retard and didn’t understand what they were trying to explain.

This is time wasted when you can set it up so you just click a video file and it adds the folder to the playlist. And let's you start the playlist from any file instead of just the first file.

But the UI looks fine to me. I see nothing wrong with it

I refuse to use MPV.

>>282195345
Make sure to read every page of the mpv github or you're not really using it or something. I only found out this existed from someone else linking it.
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/lua/autoload.lua

I wasn't even going to respond to this retarded thread because you should just be using MPC-HC if you're not braindead, but
>>282184250
>Having K-Lite Codec Pack installed fucked with the in-game videos in Trails in the Sky.
False. I've played all the way through Trails in the Sky with K-Lite Codec Pack installed and never had any problems. Same with CCCP and my previous computer. Were you using a cracked copy of Trails or something? In any case, it's your own fault, not the codec's.

>>282195886
With LAV filters, codec packs aren't even need anymore though.

>>282181812
I'm not a stinky stoner, I'm not using anything named "pot" player

How old are all those Windows Code Packs like CCCP, K-Lite and Kawaii?
Can MPC/WMP play VP9 webms and stuff, or was it not invented at the time of release? I know HEVC works but that's over a decade old.

>>282181797 (OP)
Just MPV.net, or if on a unix distro smplayer and set it to MPV. Fuck all the config crap, I still want a GUI.

>>282195651
this script is outdated compared to just using --autocreate-playlist

>>282195886
I was playing the Steam version, and yes, it happened when I was playing it on Windows 10.

>>282196641
Once again, like I said to the anon that linked me that lua script. How the fuck is anyone supposed to know about that?

>>282181812
This, honestly I'd like to switch to mpv eventually but it's a hard move when what you're using is already almost perfect in every way
I've only had some very rare issues with ASS subs not displaying properly on signs and stuff in some scenes, other than that it's flawless if you remember to disable that one option in the settings that keeps cropping/messing with the aspect ratio of videos depending on their dimensions. No idea who the fuck thought it was a good idea to have it enabled by default

>>282196740
it's in the manual?

Now that I don't need it I've gone back tp mpc-hc because it's comfy.

Enhancing the "quality" of a video with some stupid settings is such a snake oil. I'm glad I grew out of this phase and just enjoy my shit now instead of tinkering and comparing for hours.

profile=high-quality
vo=gpu-next
video-sync=display-resample
interpolation=yes
screenshot-template='%f_snapshot_%wH.%wM.%wS'

Is this good enough for anime?

This is literally all I configured for mpv. Apart from that I'm using that one webm-making script that works with Shift + W and the Anime4K shader pack (it even comes with presets for anime that is natively 1080p, 720p or 480p and you can easily switch between them/disable it whenever).

Never had a problem.

>>282199568
>kodi
Use jellyfin instead of that jank shit.

>>282206482
Does it have something like otaku addon? It searches anime streaming sites and streams videos from there

>>282206568
Yes, and you don't need plugins because it streams videos from your server.

>>282206482
You can also use mpv as playback client for jellyfin btw

>>282206639
based, you can watch from mpv android too

>>282206725
using the stream link of course

it just werks

>>282206725
On all platforms except ios I believe, mpv on android tv is still kinda buggy though.

>>282206614
I don't want to keep a server, I mainly use Kodi to just stream anime using otaku

>>282205694
That is quite impressive for an ASW release. But why not use a better encode then? Won't it look even better with your setup?

>>282206482
Kodi and Jellyfin are two completely different classes of software

>>282181797 (OP)
I understand that mpv can be challenging. But if this kind of software is impenetrable to you, I don't see why you would complain about as if it was the software's fault. It's my primary player and I love it dearly. Is it perfect? Probably not. Certainly it isn't a one size fits all. But I love how it works, I love the design and I love working with it via keyboard shortcuts. Being able to configure a gamepad as a remote for mpv is such a great thing.

>>282181797 (OP)
Wtf how do people struggle with MPV??? It's literally just download and run.

>>282207515
It's an installer with extra steps (on Windows). Normaloids usually struggle with that kind of stuff. Also, the configuration file is very daunting for the uninitiated, and never mind setting up Lua scrips for MP4 captures or what have you.

>>282207556
It's literally a one click installation wtf. These are the retards that buy Windows licenses and pay for Ad*be

>>282207556
Normies with a brain would just ask llm

>>282181797 (OP)
>too stupid to watch anime
lol

>>282207386
They can be used as the same tough.

>>282207343
>But why not use a better encode then?
Not unless there's lots of animation / effects on screen. For most powerpoint presentations reencode is indistinguishable from the full bloat stream rip.

I've just been using whatever's built into Plex...

>>282181797 (OP)
Works on my machine

MPCHC #1

>>282205694
This honestly looks really bad to me. It's like one of those anime edited clips with 60 fps nigger interpolation. Sharpening and smoothing out everything while rescaling everything to 2160p just makes the image look artificial and bad. Reminds me of that meme of people emulating retro games with supereagle, and I hope people eventually realise this is just a risible a thing.

Anon, you should configure your player to produce better screenshot names. This is what I use:
>screenshot-template="%f_%P"

I remember back in the day the main reason I moved from VLC to MPC was that VLC couldn't play Redline.

>>282202314
Dude what the actual fuck
I can tell you aren't baiting either
You are genuinely fucked in the head

>>282182186
thats not skill issue, that's borderline retardation

My mpv.conf being new:

Excuse my ignorance, brother, I'm not throwing shade or anything, but why use mpv for manga instead of something like Okular? I don't get it.

>>282182628
>If I have to remember a bunch of commands I'm dropping it.
>>282182956

Exactly. People treat simple things like they're some Sisyphean tasks.
You have Google, Bing, ChatGPT, et al to query. You have the manual page that comes with it when it is installed via man. You have archwiki ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mpv ) - you have the github page/manual (HTML) itself ( https://mpv.io/manual/master/ )... By no means is this list of help/resources exhaustive.
>>282200748
>>bash: $: command not found
You know what was meant. $ is PS1 indicator for terminal/tty that you're a normal user logged in and can start typing, the shell is ready for your input. It's the standard. Even in REPLs (if not $ then some other symbol).

No wonder the trannies are taking over. Can't be bothered to do basic shit.

>>282207636
>It's literally a one click installation wtf. These are the retards that buy Windows licenses and pay for Ad*be
Yup.

>>282208144
>https://github.com/bloc97/Anime4K
A very cool real-time upscaling algorithm. I like how it makes lines thicker. I haven't updated Anime4k in long while, I wonder if the algorithm has gotten better? Before anyone bitches, no, it's not magic. Kare Kano will still look like dogshit. Works well with many things, mode B is a good balance (default binding is alt-[F1-F3] && there are other modes (A+A) to play with).

>>282207878
Makes sense for seasonals. How about older shows or something you want to rewatch? What if you take a good encode of CSM and take a screenshot of this >>282202314 frame? How much difference will it make?

>>282181797 (OP)
no one lied to you you're just retarded and slapped dogshit settings into your conf

>>282208102
>Finer line art and less compression look somehow worse than improper resolution unfit for my screen
Cool. It does not look artificial. The only thing I'm still trying to work out is the noise in the blacks and darker colors. But that may be due to the codec.

>>282207343
I appreciate the smaller file size. Otherwise yeah, the trade off is a lesser quality image.

>>282208145
Post your own screenshot then. Show me what a good image is supposed to look like with your setup.

The best part? This isn't even what it really looks like. I have a QLED display with HDR on top of it. So that noise I was talking about is not there while viewing, just in screenshots. And the colors are even more vibrant.

>>282208144
>>282208460
How do I check if the shader is running? I've followed the instructions and tried the 4 commands but it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

>>282208052
sounds like you're actually just watching fucking anime instead of endlessly fiddling with bullshit, what the fuck anon

>>282209411
then it's not running. you would notice

>>282209411
>>282209471
Never mind, I figured it out. I fucked up something with the input file, but now it works. So what mode should I use for the standard 1080p/720p anime? I also don't have a 4K monitor, but 2K/1440p, so I'm not sure how much use I'll get out of it.

>>282209491
Don't ask us, try it. The information is right there on github. A is 1080p, B is for 720p. A+A and B+B are pretty niche and you won't get much use out of them.

>>282208267
You don't get it, they need to to ker their life away.

>>282181797 (OP)
I tried using mpv once because /a/ told me it was the shit. Minutes after I opened it I was back on MPC.
>but anon it's so simple!
It's not so complicated that I couldn't learn the commands and shortcuts, but having to learn how to use a fucking video player? To play videos? Why? I agree with whoever it was who said here that minimalism is a mental illness.

>>282209430
Well, I could be fiddling with my "server" more but I've been lazy read: unmedicated. Should probably get back on that.

>>282208052
You know what's built into Plex? mpv.

>>282209411
Mpv has a folder in appdata roaming. Put the shader folder there

>>282183168
I don't get why you need to buy some extra to be able to view video files

>>282210284
Licensing fees.

ker? What does ker mean?

Just moved to Linux Fedora, what player am I supposed to use?

I miss CCCP MPC already lol

>>282216589
>Not a single oldfags who remembers CCCP is around
Hey bro, I used it up to 2 days ago and was basically because I was forced out of windows 8.1 just to be able to update stuff, use VPN, etc
It baffles me how It just stayed there, not updated for like 15 years and was still able to open fuckinge evrything 99% of the time, and now every player is missing some bs

I figured out how to edit UOSC to add a button for loading secondary subs, but it made updating UOSC a pain, since I had to redo my edits each time. Luckily it seems they've added it to the main sub menu now.

VLC 4.0 with full libplacebo integration and libass subtitle rendering is 100x better than some old codec pack.
