I find vf='hqdn3d=2:2:3,pp=ac' provides me with nice results for reasonable quality anime encodes, smoothing 'enough' while keeping detail intact. only useful for understanding what it does to the video, or maybe for creating effects. Also, you can get interesting results with very high values of hqdn3d, for example hqdn3d=200:200:200. ) It also seems to help the deblocking filter a bit. (gmplayer > preferences > Misc > postprocessing - any level. The manpage states: 'You have to use −vf pp without parameters in order for this to work.'ĮDIT: Oh yeah! This hqdn3d is sweet! It gets rid of the flicker which I know now is aggravated by the gui's postprocessing settings which I WAS using without understanding. One note though, your line 'autoq' before the 'vf=.' line would seem to have no effect. I'm sure this applies to other options as well. If postprocessing is disabled (gui > Preferences > Misc) then no postprocessing will take effect, even when set explicitly in the config file or on the command line. Therefore I enable postprocessing in the gui and specify the options in the ~/.mplayer/config file. Some of the options you list in the config are also in the gui preferences, but cannot be set as explicitly as the config file allows.įor example, the postprocessing option in gmplayer's 'Preferences' screen is insufficient to set those options you mention (and thank you for bringing hqdn3d to my attention!). The gui version of mplayer 'gmplayer' also uses options found in the ~/.mplayer/config file. * -ss - 'Seek to given time position.' In other words, starts playback at the specified time index. * -srate - 'Selects the output sample rate to be used (of course sound cards have limits on this).' This will enable seeking in files where seeking was not possible.' Useful for files with broken index (A/V desync, etc). See the man for a lengthier explanation on how this one works. * -channels changes the number of playback channels. * -cache-min - 'Playback will start when the cache has been filled up to of the total.' * -cache sets 'how much memory (in kBytes) to use when precaching a file or URL. May be required for some streaming video. * -v or -verbose to display more console output Almost all of these descriptions are taken straight from the man. Once again, these are only a few of the many options available that most people might be looking for. * b and j toggles through available subtitles * T toggles stay-on-top (see also -ontop) * # cycles through available audio tracks * / and * or 9 and 0 to decrease/increase volume * pgup and pgdown seeks backward/forward 10 minutes * up and down seeks backward/forward 1 minute I also find that mplayer's keyboard navigation rocks! Rather difficult to set up but very easy to use afterwards. Those scripts handle the routing of the audio channels.

I also use two python scripts, one for playing a movie with headphones and one for playing with 5.1 speakers. # Set subtitle alignment at its position. (1: load all subs containing movie name)įont=/home/osmo/.fonts/microsoft/vista/Calibri.ttf The best part about MPlayer is the superior subtitle rendering. In my opinion, if you watch a lot of dubbed/subtitled movies, nothing beats mplayer #Fix A/V sync problems on files with bad MP3 VBR audio #Some extra stuff I am currently not using. Subpos='90' #By default subtitles are too low #This sets the postprocessing into overdrive using all possible spare cpu cycles to make the movie look better Subfont-text-scale='3.7' #truetype font scaling Sub-bg-alpha='0' #background color ala closed captions #Truetype fonts rock! (sudo apt-get msttcorefonts)įont=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/impact.ttf Hardframedrop='0' #Make sure hard frame drop is off but can turn on easily now Monitoraspect='16:9' #I'm on a widescreen laptop so keeps 4:3 content from stretching Zoom='1' #Allow sofware scaling if I use x11 for voĭouble='yes' #double buffering(recommended for subtitles)

Really-quiet='1' #Very very little console output (next step is only needed if you have never run mplayer before) That and this config is for the terminal version. Take a look at mine and try it! Keep in mind, if you don't use mplayer from the terminal you don't know what you're emissing. But with a good config file it's much better.
