This allows mpv to work as a transcoder, supporting many video formats.
#Mpv video player code#
This required making all mpv code thread safe.
#Mpv video player driver#
High quality video output mpv includes a customizable video output driver based on OpenGL as well as the Vulkan API, which supports over 100 options for controlling playback quality, including the use of advanced upscaling filters, color management, and customizable pixel shaders.This allows mpv to replace site-specific video players based on Adobe Flash or HTML5. Video websites By using youtube-dl, mpv natively supports playback of high-definition video (HD) content and audio on YouTube and over 1000 other supported sites.This was intended to make interaction easier for new users and to enable precise and direct seeking. Mpv has had several notable changes since it was forked from MPlayer the most user-visible being the addition of an on-screen-controller (OSC) minimal GUI integrated with mpv to offer basic mouse-controllability.
#Mpv video player license#
Since June 2015, the project's source code is in the process of being relicensed from GNU General Public License version 2 (GPLv2) or later to GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 (LGPLv2.1) or later to allow using mpv as a library in more applications.

As a result, the project had a large influx of contributions. The motive for the fork was to encourage developer activity by removing unmaintainable code and dropping support for very old systems. Voilà.Mpv was forked by Vincent Lang, also known as wm4, in 2012 from mplayer2, which was forked in 2010 from MPlayer. Then use your key-binding for the youtube script (in my case mod+y). This will copy the link into your clipboard. Unfortunately, you’ll still have to visit YouTube’s website. You can bind your shell script to a keyboard shortcut. I use the rubberband utility (comes with mpv installation) because it gave me the best quality. Otherwise the video begins to sound squeaky.

#Mpv video player windows#
Windows users can use vaskovsky/notify-send. Replace xclip with MacOS’s native pbpaste. MacOS users might use xanthia as a drop-in replacement for notify-send. xclip can use your clipboard to pass the copied link to mpv. notify-send is small utility that can send desktop notifications.
