CPU: Intel i9-13900K @ 3GHz\r\n    - RAM: 64GB\r\n    - GPU: NVidia GeForce RTX 4070 12GB\r\n    - OS: Windows 11 Pro 23H2\r\n\r\n## History\r\n\r\n_June 2024_\r\n\r\n📢\r\n\r\n⚠️\r\n\r\n- Please note that am archiving this repo and plan to no longer do any more work on it\r\n- As of June 2024 I'm getting better results using MPC-HC on Windows 11 with advanced config settings\r\n- Thanks for your interest\r\n\r\n⚠️\r\n\r\n_Version 1.3 (Nov 21, 2023)_\r\n- Changed default player behaviour to keep it open after a video/playlist ends\r\n- Improved `input.conf` for easier seeking\r\n- Updated `mpv.conf` to default base shaders `SSimDownscaler`, `SSimSuperRes`, `KrigBilateral` to off\r\n    - I did this since in testing I noticed over-sharpening and ghosting\r\n- Added easy activation of [uosc](https://github.com/tomasklaen/uosc) in `mpv_osd.conf` (default is off)\r\n\r\nSee [HISTORY.md](HISTORY.md) for the history of older versions.\r\n\r\n## Important Notes\r\n\r\n⚠️ Be sure to customize `mpv_v3\\mpv.conf` and `mpv_v3\\input.conf` manually,\r\nto make sure that the font and language are valid ⚠️\r\n\r\nThe defaults are:\r\n\r\n- `Arial` for the subtitle font\r\n- `en,eng` (English) for the audio and subtitle languages\r\n\r\nAs of version 1.1.00 please check the other `.conf` files as well.\r\n\r\n📝 I suggest that you have a read of my __mpv.conf__ and alter it to your liking. 📝\r\n\r\n- I've personally switched to MPV v3 since the Windows app and `updater.bat` has problems for MPV v2\r\n- I've added a vastly better _mpv v3_ config file tested on [MPV v3 for Windows](https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpv-player-windows/files/64bit-v3/)\r\n\r\n## Intro\r\n\r\nThis is an improved MPV Media Player v3 configuration file that:\r\n\r\n- has useful defaults\r\n- auto-hides the cursor after 200ms (when fullscreen)\r\n- disables autoplay\r\n- enables fast seeking\r\n- improves OSD messages and style (moves progress bar to the top)\r\n- saves the seekbar position on exit\r\n- sets max volume (100%) and default volume (70%)\r\n- sets subtitle font to `Arial` and sets the color to off-yellow\r\n- sets the HLS bitrate to maximum\r\n- sets the default video, audio, and subtitle language to `en,eng`\r\n- uses shaders to improve, upscale and downscale videos\r\n    - CAS, FSR, KrigBilateral, SSimDownscaler and SSimSuperRes\r\n- has been tested on Windows 10 and 11 only (not tested on Apple or Linux)\r\n- adds no additional cruft...\r\n\r\n## Requirements\r\n\r\n* official MPV Player: https://mpv.io/ - [download MPV v3](https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpv-player-windows/files/64bit-v3/)\r\n* a PC with at least 4GB of RAM (8GB or more recommended)\r\n* a PC with integrated (CPU) or discrete GPU (card)\r\n\r\n## Credits\r\n\r\n* Some files are based off of the repo [Argon-/mpv-config](https://github.com/Argon-/mpv-config) by [Argon- (Julian)](https://github.com/Argon-)\r\n* Inspired by [mpv-config](https://github.com/Zabooby/mpv-config) by [Zabooby](https://github.com/Zabooby)\r\n* Shaders by [igv](https://gist.github.com/igv) and [agyild](https://gist.github.com/agyild/)\r\n\r\n## Configuration for MPV v3\r\n\r\n0. Download the [latest release](https://github.com/hl2guide/better-mpv-config/releases)\r\n1. Extract the `configs` and `shaders` folders next to `mpv.exe`\r\n2. Extract the `mpv.conf` and `input.conf` files next to `mpv.exe`\r\n3. Delete `input.conf` if desired (custom keybindings)\r\n4. In the `mpv.conf` file toggle the include line for the type of GPU you use (defaults to NVidia)\r\n5. If your GPU cannot handle the shaders in `mpv.conf`, delete or comment out the include line for `configs\\mpv_shaders.conf`\r\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["GLSL"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhl2guide%2Fbetter-mpv-config","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhl2guide%2Fbetter-mpv-config","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhl2guide%2Fbetter-mpv-config/lists"}
