Niklas Haas ac1e31957d vo_opengl: add oversample scaler 
This is like nearest neighbour, but the edges between pixels are
linearly interpolating if needed, as if they had been (naively)
oversampled.

VIDEO OUTPUT DRIVERS
====================
Video output drivers are interfaces to different video output facilities. The
syntax is:
``--vo=<driver1[:suboption1[=value]:...],driver2,...[,]>``
Specify a priority list of video output drivers to be used.
If the list has a trailing ',', mpv will fall back on drivers not contained
in the list. Suboptions are optional and can mostly be omitted.
You can also set defaults for each driver. The defaults are applied before the
normal driver parameters.
``--vo-defaults=<driver1[:parameter1:parameter2:...],driver2,...>``
Set defaults for each driver.
.. note::
See ``--vo=help`` for a list of compiled-in video output drivers.
The recommended output drivers are ``--vo=vdpau`` and ``--vo=opengl-hq``.
All other drivers are just for compatibility or special purposes.
.. admonition:: Example
``--vo=opengl,xv,``
Try the ``opengl`` driver, then the ``xv`` driver, then others.
Available video output drivers are:
``xv`` (X11 only)
Uses the XVideo extension to enable hardware-accelerated display. This is
the most compatible VO on X, but may be low-quality, and has issues with
OSD and subtitle display.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with old systems.
``adaptor=<number>``
Select a specific XVideo adapter (check xvinfo results).
``port=<number>``
Select a specific XVideo port.
``ck=<cur|use|set>``
Select the source from which the color key is taken (default: cur).
cur
The default takes the color key currently set in Xv.
use
Use but do not set the color key from mpv (use the ``--colorkey``
option to change it).
set
Same as use but also sets the supplied color key.
``ck-method=<man|bg|auto>``
Sets the color key drawing method (default: man).
man
Draw the color key manually (reduces flicker in some cases).
bg
Set the color key as window background.
auto
Let Xv draw the color key.
``colorkey=<number>``
Changes the color key to an RGB value of your choice. ``0x000000`` is
black and ``0xffffff`` is white.
``no-colorkey``
Disables color-keying.
``x11`` (X11 only)
Shared memory video output driver without hardware acceleration that works
whenever X11 is present.
.. note:: This is a fallback only, and should not be normally used.
``vdpau`` (X11 only)
Uses the VDPAU interface to display and optionally also decode video.
Hardware decoding is used with ``--hwdec=vdpau``.
.. note::
Earlier versions of mpv (and MPlayer, mplayer2) provided sub-options
to tune vdpau post-processing, like ``deint``, ``sharpen``, ``denoise``,
``chroma-deint``, ``pullup``, ``hqscaling``. These sub-options are
deprecated, and you should use the ``vdpaupp`` video filter instead.
``sharpen=<-1-1>``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
For positive values, apply a sharpening algorithm to the video, for
negative values a blurring algorithm (default: 0).
``denoise=<0-1>``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
Apply a noise reduction algorithm to the video (default: 0; no noise
reduction).
``deint=<-4-4>``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
Select deinterlacing mode (default: 0). In older versions (as well as
MPlayer/mplayer2) you could use this option to enable deinterlacing.
This doesn't work anymore, and deinterlacing is enabled with either
the ``D`` key (by default mapped to the command ``cycle deinterlace``),
or the ``--deinterlace`` option. Also, to select the default deint mode,
you should use something like ``--vf-defaults=vdpaupp:deint-mode=temporal``
instead of this sub-option.
0
Pick the ``vdpaupp`` video filter default, which corresponds to 3.
1
Show only first field.
2
Bob deinterlacing.
3
Motion-adaptive temporal deinterlacing. May lead to A/V desync
with slow video hardware and/or high resolution.
4
Motion-adaptive temporal deinterlacing with edge-guided spatial
interpolation. Needs fast video hardware.
``chroma-deint``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
Makes temporal deinterlacers operate both on luma and chroma (default).
Use no-chroma-deint to solely use luma and speed up advanced
deinterlacing. Useful with slow video memory.
``pullup``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
Try to apply inverse telecine, needs motion adaptive temporal
deinterlacing.
``hqscaling=<0-9>``
(Deprecated. See note about ``vdpaupp``.)
0
Use default VDPAU scaling (default).
1-9
Apply high quality VDPAU scaling (needs capable hardware).
``fps=<number>``
Override autodetected display refresh rate value (the value is needed
for framedrop to allow video playback rates higher than display
refresh rate, and for vsync-aware frame timing adjustments). Default 0
means use autodetected value. A positive value is interpreted as a
refresh rate in Hz and overrides the autodetected value. A negative
value disables all timing adjustment and framedrop logic.
``composite-detect``
NVIDIA's current VDPAU implementation behaves somewhat differently
under a compositing window manager and does not give accurate frame
timing information. With this option enabled, the player tries to
detect whether a compositing window manager is active. If one is
detected, the player disables timing adjustments as if the user had
specified ``fps=-1`` (as they would be based on incorrect input). This
means timing is somewhat less accurate than without compositing, but
with the composited mode behavior of the NVIDIA driver, there is no
hard playback speed limit even without the disabled logic. Enabled by
default, use ``no-composite-detect`` to disable.
``queuetime_windowed=<number>`` and ``queuetime_fs=<number>``
Use VDPAU's presentation queue functionality to queue future video
frame changes at most this many milliseconds in advance (default: 50).
See below for additional information.
``output_surfaces=<2-15>``
Allocate this many output surfaces to display video frames (default:
3). See below for additional information.
``colorkey=<#RRGGBB|#AARRGGBB>``
Set the VDPAU presentation queue background color, which in practice
is the colorkey used if VDPAU operates in overlay mode (default:
``#020507``, some shade of black). If the alpha component of this value
is 0, the default VDPAU colorkey will be used instead (which is usually
green).
``force-yuv``
Never accept RGBA input. This means mpv will insert a filter to convert
to a YUV format before the VO. Sometimes useful to force availability
of certain YUV-only features, like video equalizer or deinterlacing.
Using the VDPAU frame queuing functionality controlled by the queuetime
options makes mpv's frame flip timing less sensitive to system CPU load and
allows mpv to start decoding the next frame(s) slightly earlier, which can
reduce jitter caused by individual slow-to-decode frames. However, the
NVIDIA graphics drivers can make other window behavior such as window moves
choppy if VDPAU is using the blit queue (mainly happens if you have the
composite extension enabled) and this feature is active. If this happens on
your system and it bothers you then you can set the queuetime value to 0 to
disable this feature. The settings to use in windowed and fullscreen mode
are separate because there should be no reason to disable this for
fullscreen mode (as the driver issue should not affect the video itself).
You can queue more frames ahead by increasing the queuetime values and the
``output_surfaces`` count (to ensure enough surfaces to buffer video for a
certain time ahead you need at least as many surfaces as the video has
frames during that time, plus two). This could help make video smoother in
some cases. The main downsides are increased video RAM requirements for
the surfaces and laggier display response to user commands (display
changes only become visible some time after they're queued). The graphics
driver implementation may also have limits on the length of maximum
queuing time or number of queued surfaces that work well or at all.
``direct3d_shaders`` (Windows only)
Video output driver that uses the Direct3D interface.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with systems that don't provide
proper OpenGL drivers.
``prefer-stretchrect``
Use ``IDirect3DDevice9::StretchRect`` over other methods if possible.
``disable-stretchrect``
Never render the video using ``IDirect3DDevice9::StretchRect``.
``disable-textures``
Never render the video using D3D texture rendering. Rendering with
textures + shader will still be allowed. Add ``disable-shaders`` to
completely disable video rendering with textures.
``disable-shaders``
Never use shaders when rendering video.
``only-8bit``
Never render YUV video with more than 8 bits per component.
Using this flag will force software conversion to 8-bit.
``disable-texture-align``
Normally texture sizes are always aligned to 16. With this option
enabled, the video texture will always have exactly the same size as
the video itself.
Debug options. These might be incorrect, might be removed in the future,
might crash, might cause slow downs, etc. Contact the developers if you
actually need any of these for performance or proper operation.
``force-power-of-2``
Always force textures to power of 2, even if the device reports
non-power-of-2 texture sizes as supported.
``texture-memory=<mode>``
Only affects operation with shaders/texturing enabled, and (E)OSD.
Possible values:
``default`` (default)
Use ``D3DPOOL_DEFAULT``, with a ``D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM`` texture for
locking. If the driver supports ``D3DDEVCAPS_TEXTURESYSTEMMEMORY``,
``D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM`` is used directly.
``default-pool``
Use ``D3DPOOL_DEFAULT``. (Like ``default``, but never use a
shadow-texture.)
``default-pool-shadow``
Use ``D3DPOOL_DEFAULT``, with a ``D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM`` texture for
locking. (Like ``default``, but always force the shadow-texture.)
``managed``
Use ``D3DPOOL_MANAGED``.
``scratch``
Use ``D3DPOOL_SCRATCH``, with a ``D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM`` texture for
locking.
``swap-discard``
Use ``D3DSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD``, which might be faster.
Might be slower too, as it must(?) clear every frame.
``exact-backbuffer``
Always resize the backbuffer to window size.
``direct3d`` (Windows only)
Same as ``direct3d_shaders``, but with the options ``disable-textures``
and ``disable-shaders`` forced.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with old systems.
``opengl``
OpenGL video output driver. It supports extended scaling methods, dithering
and color management.
By default, it tries to use fast and fail-safe settings. Use the alias
``opengl-hq`` to use this driver with defaults set to high quality
rendering.
Requires at least OpenGL 2.1.
Some features are available with OpenGL 3 capable graphics drivers only
(or if the necessary extensions are available).
OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0 are supported as well.
Hardware decoding over OpenGL-interop is supported to some degree. Note
that in this mode, some corner case might not be gracefully handled, and
color space conversion and chroma upsampling is generally in the hand of
the hardware decoder APIs.
``scale=<filter>``
``bilinear``
Bilinear hardware texture filtering (fastest, very low quality).
This is the default for compatibility reasons.
``spline36``
Mid quality and speed. This is the default when using ``opengl-hq``.
``lanczos``
Lanczos scaling. Provides mid quality and speed. Generally worse
than ``spline36``, but it results in a slightly sharper image
which is good for some content types. The number of taps can be
controlled with ``scale-radius``, but is best left unchanged.
This filter corresponds to the old ``lanczos3`` alias if the default
radius is used, while ``lanczos2`` corresponds to a radius of 2.
``ewa_lanczos``
Elliptic weighted average Lanczos scaling. Also known as Jinc.
Relatively slow, but very good quality. The radius can be
controlled with ``scale-radius``. Increasing the radius makes the
filter sharper but adds more ringing.
``ewa_lanczossharp``
A slightly sharpened version of ewa_lanczos, preconfigured to use
an ideal radius and parameter. If your hardware can run it, this is
probably what you should use by default.
Note: This filter has a fixed radius. Use ``ewa_lanczos`` if you
want to adjust it.
``mitchell``
Mitchell-Netravali. The ``B`` and ``C`` parameters can be set with
``scale-param1`` and ``scale-param2``. This filter is very good at
downscaling (see ``scale-down``).
There are some more filters, but most are not as useful. For a complete
list, pass ``help`` as value, e.g.::
mpv --vo=opengl:scale=help
``scale-param1=<value>``, ``scale-param2=<value>``
Set filter parameters. Ignored if the filter is not tunable.
Currently, this affects the following filter parameters:
``kaiser``
Window parameter (``alpha``). Defaults to 6.33.
``mitchell``
Spline parameters (``B`` and ``C``). Defaults to 1/3 for both.
``gaussian``
Scale parameter (``t``). Increasing this makes the result blurrier.
Defaults to 1.
``ewa_lanczos``, ``ewa_ginseng``, ``ewa_hanning``
Jinc function scaling factor (also known as a blur factor).
Decreasing this makes the result sharper, increasing it makes it
blurrier. Defaults to 1. Note that setting this too low (eg. 0.5)
leads to bad results. It's recommended to stay between 0.9 and 1.1.
``sharpen3``, ``sharpen5``
Sharpening strength. Increasing this makes the image sharper but
adds more ringing and aliasing. Defaults to 0.5.
``oversample``
Minimum distance to an edge before interpolation is used. Setting
this to 0 will always interpolate edges, whereas setting it to 0.5
will never interpolate, thus behaving as if the regular nearest
neighbour algorithm was used. Defaults to 0.0.
``scale-radius=<r>``
Set radius for filters listed below, must be a float number between 1.0
and 16.0. Defaults to be 3.0 if not specified.
``sinc``, ``lanczos``, ``blackman``, ``gaussian`` and all EWA filters (eg. ``ewa_lanczos``)
Note that depending on filter implementation details and video scaling
ratio, the radius that actually being used might be different
(most likely being increased a bit).
``scale-antiring=<value>``
Set the antiringing strength. This tries to eliminate ringing, but can
introduce other artifacts in the process. Must be a float number
between 0.0 and 1.0. The default value of 0.0 disables antiringing
entirely.
Note that this doesn't affect the special filters ``bilinear``,
``bicubic_fast`` or ``sharpen``.
``scaler-resizes-only``
Disable the scaler if the video image is not resized. In that case,
``bilinear`` is used instead whatever is set with ``scale``. Bilinear
will reproduce the source image perfectly if no scaling is performed.
Note that this option never affects ``cscale``.
``pbo``
Enable use of PBOs. This is slightly faster, but can sometimes lead to
sporadic and temporary image corruption (in theory, because reupload
is not retried when it fails), and perhaps actually triggers slower
paths with drivers that don't support PBOs properly.
``dither-depth=<N|no|auto>``
Set dither target depth to N. Default: no.
no
Disable any dithering done by mpv.
auto
Automatic selection. If output bit depth cannot be detected,
8 bits per component are assumed.
8
Dither to 8 bit output.
Note that the depth of the connected video display device can not be
detected. Often, LCD panels will do dithering on their own, which
conflicts with ``opengl``'s dithering and leads to ugly output.
``dither-size-fruit=<2-8>``
Set the size of the dither matrix (default: 6). The actual size of
the matrix is ``(2^N) x (2^N)`` for an option value of ``N``, so a
value of 6 gives a size of 64x64. The matrix is generated at startup
time, and a large matrix can take rather long to compute (seconds).
Used in ``dither=fruit`` mode only.
``dither=<fruit|ordered|no>``
Select dithering algorithm (default: fruit). (Normally, the
``dither-depth`` option controls whether dithering is enabled.)
``temporal-dither``
Enable temporal dithering. (Only active if dithering is enabled in
general.) This changes between 8 different dithering pattern on each
frame by changing the orientation of the tiled dithering matrix.
Unfortunately, this can lead to flicker on LCD displays, since these
have a high reaction time.
``debug``
Check for OpenGL errors, i.e. call ``glGetError()``. Also request a
debug OpenGL context (which does nothing with current graphics drivers
as of this writing).
``interpolation``
Reduce stuttering caused by mismatches in the video fps and display
refresh rate (also known as judder).
This essentially attempts to interpolate the missing frames by
convoluting the video along the temporal axis. The filter used can be
controlled using the ``tscale`` setting.
Note that this relies on vsync to work, see ``swapinterval`` for more
information.
``swapinterval=<n>``
Interval in displayed frames between two buffer swaps.
1 is equivalent to enable VSYNC, 0 to disable VSYNC. Defaults to 1 if
not specified.
Note that this depends on proper OpenGL vsync support. On some platforms
and drivers, this only works reliably when in fullscreen mode. It may
also require driver-specific hacks if using multiple monitors, to
ensure mpv syncs to the right one. Compositing window managers can
also lead to bad results, as can missing or incorrect display FPS
information (see ``--display-fps``).
``cscale=<filter>``
As ``scale``, but for interpolating chroma information. If the image
is not subsampled, this option is ignored entirely.
``scale-down=<filter>``
Like ``scale``, but apply these filters on downscaling instead. If this
option is unset, the filter implied by ``scale`` will be applied.
``cscale-param1``, ``cscale-param2``, ``cscale-radius``, ``cscale-antiring``
Set filter parameters and radius for ``cscale``.
See ``scale-param1``, ``scale-param2``, ``scale-radius`` and
``scale-antiring``.
``tscale=<filter>``, ``tscale-param1``, ``tscale-param2``, ``tscale-antiring``
The filter used for interpolating the temporal axis (frames). This is
only used if ``interpolation`` is enabled. The only valid choices
for ``tscale`` are separable convolution filters (use ``tscale=help``
to get a list). The other options (``tscale-param1`` etc.) are
analogous to their ``scale`` counterparts. The default is ``mitchell``.
Note that the maximum supported filter radius is currently 3, and that
using filters with larger radius may introduce isues when pausing or
framestepping, proportional to the radius used. It is recommended to
stick to a radius of 1 or 2.
``linear-scaling``
Scale in linear light. This is automatically enabled if
``target-prim``, ``target-trc``, ``icc-profile`` or
``sigmoid-upscaling`` is set. It should only be used with a
``fbo-format`` that has at least 16 bit precision.
``fancy-downscaling``
When using convolution based filters, extend the filter size
when downscaling. Trades quality for reduced downscaling performance.
This is automatically disabled for anamorphic video, because this
feature doesn't work correctly with different scale factors in
different directions.
``sigmoid-upscaling``
When upscaling, use a sigmoidal color transform to avoid emphasizing
ringing artifacts. This also enables ``linear-scaling``.
``sigmoid-center``
The center of the sigmoid curve used for ``sigmoid-upscaling``, must
be a float between 0.0 and 1.0. Defaults to 0.75 if not specified.
``sigmoid-slope``
The slope of the sigmoid curve used for ``sigmoid-upscaling``, must
be a float between 1.0 and 20.0. Defaults to 6.5 if not specified.
``no-npot``
Force use of power-of-2 texture sizes. For debugging only.
Borders will be distorted due to filtering.
``glfinish``
Call ``glFinish()`` before and after swapping buffers (default: disabled).
Slower, but might help getting better results when doing framedropping.
Can completely ruin performance. The details depend entirely on the
OpenGL driver.
``waitvsync``
Call ``glXWaitVideoSyncSGI`` after each buffer swap (default: disabled).
This may or may not help with video timing accuracy and frame drop. It's
possible that this makes video output slower, or has no effect at all.
X11/GLX only.
``sw``
Continue even if a software renderer is detected.
``backend=<sys>``
The value ``auto`` (the default) selects the windowing backend. You
can also pass ``help`` to get a complete list of compiled in backends
(sorted by autoprobe order).
auto
auto-select (default)
cocoa
Cocoa/OS X
win
Win32/WGL
x11, x11es
X11/GLX (the ``es`` variant forces GLES)
wayland
Wayland/EGL
x11egl, x11egles
X11/EGL (the ``es`` variant forces GLES)
``fbo-format=<fmt>``
Selects the internal format of textures used for FBOs. The format can
influence performance and quality of the video output. (FBOs are not
always used, and typically only when using extended scalers.)
``fmt`` can be one of: rgb, rgba, rgb8, rgb10, rgb10_a2, rgb16, rgb16f,
rgb32f, rgba12, rgba16, rgba16f, rgba32f.
Default: rgba.
``gamma=<0.1..2.0>``
Set a gamma value (default: 1.0). If gamma is adjusted in other ways
(like with the ``--gamma`` option or key bindings and the ``gamma``
property), the value is multiplied with the other gamma value.
Recommended values based on the environmental brightness:
1.0
Brightly illuminated (default)
0.9
Slightly dim
0.8
Pitch black room
``gamma-auto``
Automatically corrects the gamma value depending on ambient lighting
conditions (adding a gamma boost for dark rooms).
With ambient illuminance of 64lux, mpv will pick the 1.0 gamma value
(no boost), and slightly increase the boost up until 0.8 for 16lux.
NOTE: Only implemented on OS X.
``target-prim=<value>``
Specifies the primaries of the display. Video colors will be adapted
to this colorspace if necessary. Valid values are:
auto
Disable any adaptation (default)
bt470m
ITU-R BT.470 M
bt601-525
ITU-R BT.601 (525-line SD systems, eg. NTSC), SMPTE 170M/240M
bt601-625
ITU-R BT.601 (625-line SD systems, eg. PAL/SECAM), ITU-R BT.470 B/G
bt709
ITU-R BT.709 (HD), IEC 61966-2-4 (sRGB), SMPTE RP177 Annex B
bt2020
ITU-R BT.2020 (UHD)
``target-trc=<value>``
Specifies the transfer characteristics (gamma) of the display. Video
colors will be adjusted to this curve. Valid values are:
auto
Disable any adaptation (default)
bt1886
ITU-R BT.1886 curve, without the brightness drop (approx. 1.961)
srgb
IEC 61966-2-4 (sRGB)
linear
Linear light output
gamma22
Pure power curve (gamma 2.2)
``icc-profile=<file>``
Load an ICC profile and use it to transform linear RGB to screen output.
Needs LittleCMS 2 support compiled in. This option overrides the
``target-prim`` and ``target-trc`` options. It also enables
``linear-scaling``.
``icc-profile-auto``
Automatically select the ICC display profile currently specified by
the display settings of the operating system.
NOTE: Only implemented on OS X and X11
``icc-cache=<file>``
Store and load the 3D LUT created from the ICC profile in this file.
This can be used to speed up loading, since LittleCMS 2 can take a while
to create the 3D LUT. Note that this file contains an uncompressed LUT.
Its size depends on the ``3dlut-size``, and can be very big.
``icc-intent=<value>``
Specifies the ICC intent used for the color transformation (when using
``icc-profile``).
0
perceptual
1
relative colorimetric (default)
2
saturation
3
absolute colorimetric
``3dlut-size=<r>x<g>x<b>``
Size of the 3D LUT generated from the ICC profile in each dimension.
Default is 128x256x64.
Sizes must be a power of two, and 512 at most.
``alpha=<blend|yes|no>``
Decides what to do if the input has an alpha component (default: blend).
blend
Blend the frame against a black background.
yes
Try to create a framebuffer with alpha component. This only makes sense
if the video contains alpha information (which is extremely rare). May
not be supported on all platforms. If alpha framebuffers are
unavailable, it silently falls back on a normal framebuffer. Note
that if you set the ``fbo-format`` option to a non-default value,
a format with alpha must be specified, or this won't work.
no
Ignore alpha component.
``chroma-location=<auto|center|left>``
Set the YUV chroma sample location. auto means use the bitstream
flags (default: auto).
``rectangle-textures``
Force use of rectangle textures (default: no). Normally this shouldn't
have any advantages over normal textures. Note that hardware decoding
overrides this flag.
``background=<color>``
Color used to draw parts of the mpv window not covered by video.
See ``--osd-color`` option how colors are defined.
``opengl-hq``
Same as ``opengl``, but with default settings for high quality rendering.
This is equivalent to::
--vo=opengl:scale=spline36:scale-down=mitchell:dither-depth=auto:fbo-format=rgba16:fancy-downscaling:sigmoid-upscaling
Note that some cheaper LCDs do dithering that gravely interferes with
``opengl``'s dithering. Disabling dithering with ``dither-depth=no`` helps.
Unlike ``opengl``, ``opengl-hq`` makes use of FBOs by default. Sometimes you
can achieve better quality or performance by changing the ``fbo-format``
suboption to ``rgb16f``, ``rgb32f`` or ``rgb``. Known problems include
Mesa/Intel not accepting ``rgb16``, Mesa sometimes not being compiled with
float texture support, and some OS X setups being very slow with ``rgb16``
but fast with ``rgb32f``.
``sdl``
SDL 2.0+ Render video output driver, depending on system with or without
hardware acceleration. Should work on all platforms supported by SDL 2.0.
For tuning, refer to your copy of the file ``SDL_hints.h``.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with systems that don't provide
proper graphics drivers, or which support GLES only.
``sw``
Continue even if a software renderer is detected.
``switch-mode``
Instruct SDL to switch the monitor video mode when going fullscreen.
``vaapi``
Intel VA API video output driver with support for hardware decoding. Note
that there is absolutely no reason to use this, other than wanting to use
hardware decoding to save power on laptops, or possibly preventing video
tearing with some setups.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with crappy systems. You can
use vaapi hardware decoding with ``--vo=opengl`` too.
``scaling=<algorithm>``
default
Driver default (mpv default as well).
fast
Fast, but low quality.
hq
Unspecified driver dependent high-quality scaling, slow.
nla
``non-linear anamorphic scaling``
``deint-mode=<mode>``
Select deinterlacing algorithm. Note that by default deinterlacing is
initially always off, and needs to be enabled with the ``D`` key
(default key binding for ``cycle deinterlace``).
This option doesn't apply if libva supports video post processing (vpp).
In this case, the default for ``deint-mode`` is ``no``, and enabling
deinterlacing via user interaction using the methods mentioned above
actually inserts the ``vavpp`` video filter. If vpp is not actually
supported with the libva backend in use, you can use this option to
forcibly enable VO based deinterlacing.
no
Don't allow deinterlacing (default for newer libva).
first-field
Show only first field (going by ``--field-dominance``).
bob
bob deinterlacing (default for older libva).
``scaled-osd=<yes|no>``
If enabled, then the OSD is rendered at video resolution and scaled to
display resolution. By default, this is disabled, and the OSD is
rendered at display resolution if the driver supports it.
``null``
Produces no video output. Useful for benchmarking.
``caca``
Color ASCII art video output driver that works on a text console.
.. note:: This driver is a joke.
``image``
Output each frame into an image file in the current directory. Each file
takes the frame number padded with leading zeros as name.
``format=<format>``
Select the image file format.
jpg
JPEG files, extension .jpg. (Default.)
jpeg
JPEG files, extension .jpeg.
png
PNG files.
ppm
Portable bitmap format.
pgm
Portable graymap format.
pgmyuv
Portable graymap format, using the YV12 pixel format.
tga
Truevision TGA.
``png-compression=<0-9>``
PNG compression factor (speed vs. file size tradeoff) (default: 7)
``png-filter=<0-5>``
Filter applied prior to PNG compression (0 = none; 1 = sub; 2 = up;
3 = average; 4 = Paeth; 5 = mixed) (default: 5)
``jpeg-quality=<0-100>``
JPEG quality factor (default: 90)
``(no-)jpeg-progressive``
Specify standard or progressive JPEG (default: no).
``(no-)jpeg-baseline``
Specify use of JPEG baseline or not (default: yes).
``jpeg-optimize=<0-100>``
JPEG optimization factor (default: 100)
``jpeg-smooth=<0-100>``
smooth factor (default: 0)
``jpeg-dpi=<1->``
JPEG DPI (default: 72)
``outdir=<dirname>``
Specify the directory to save the image files to (default: ``./``).
``wayland`` (Wayland only)
Wayland shared memory video output as fallback for ``opengl``.
.. note:: This driver is for compatibility with systems that don't provide
working OpenGL drivers.
``alpha``
Use a buffer format that supports videos and images with alpha
information
``rgb565``
Use RGB565 as buffer format. This format is implemented on most
platforms, especially on embedded where it is far more efficient then
RGB8888.
``triple-buffering``
Use 3 buffers instead of 2. This can lead to more fluid playback, but
uses more memory.
``opengl-cb``
For use with libmpv direct OpenGL embedding; useless in any other contexts.
(See ``<mpv/opengl_cb.h>``.)
Usually, ``opengl-cb`` renders frames asynchronously by client and this
can cause some frame drops. In order to provide a way to handle this
situation, ``opengl-cb`` has its own frame queue and calls update callback
more frequently if the queue is not empty regardless of existence of new frame.
Once the queue is filled, ``opengl-cb`` drops frames automatically.
With default options, ``opengl-cb`` renders only the latest frame and drops
all frames handed over while waiting render function after update callback.
``frame-queue-size=<1..100>``
The maximum count of frames which the frame queue can hold (default: 1)
``frame-drop-mode=<pop|clear>``
Select the behavior when the frame queue is full.
pop
Drop the oldest frame in the frame queue. (default)
clear
Drop all frames in the frame queue.
This also supports many of the suboptions the ``opengl`` VO has. Runs
``mpv --vo=opengl-cb:help`` for a list.
This also supports the ``vo_cmdline`` command.
