Uses WASAPI in shared mode by default, add :exclusive flag to choose exclusive mode (duh). WASAPI works somewhat different in shared mode: the OS suggests the sample format to use, and the GetBuffer call is done slightly differently. The shared mode driver does not consume audio as fast as it notifies the thread; we need to check how much we're allowed to write. Not doing this correctly results in spamming the console with AUDCLNT_E_BUFFER_TOO_LARGE errors. When guessing formats for exclusive mode, try several sample size and sample rate combinations instead of just falling back to s16le@44100hz. If none of the rates are accepted, tries remixing >6 channels to 5.1 channels. Failing that, tries remixing to stereo. Failing everything, including the CD Red Book format, what else is left to test? Calculate buffer_block_size based on the configured channels and bytes per sample; MSDN docs say nBlockAlign is not guaranteed to be set for anything but integer PCM formats. |

mpv
Overview
mpv is a movie player based on MPlayer and mplayer2. It supports a wide variety of video file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types.
If you are wondering what's different from mplayer2 and MPlayer you can read more about the changes.
Compilation
Compiling with full features requires development files for several
external libraries. Below is a list of some important requirements. For
more information see the output of ./configure --help
for a list of options,
or look at the list of enabled and disabled features printed after running
./configure
. If you think you have support for some feature installed
but configure fails to detect it, the file config.log
may contain
information about the reasons for the failure.
Essential dependencies (incomplete list):
- gcc or clang
- X development headers (xlib, X extensions, libvdpau, libGL, libXv, ...)
- Audio output development headers (libasound, pulseaudio)
- fribidi, freetype, fontconfig development headers (for libass)
- libass
- FFmpeg libraries (libavutil libavcodec libavformat libswscale libpostproc)
- libjpeg
- libquvi if you want to play Youtube videos directly
- libx264/libmp3lame/libfdk-aac if you want to use encoding (has to be explicitly enabled when compiling ffmpeg)
Most of the above libraries are available in suitable versions on normal Linux distributions. However FFmpeg is an exception (distro versions may be too old to work at all or work well). For that reason you may want to use the separately available build wrapper (mpv-build) that first compiles FFmpeg libraries and libass, and then compiles the player statically linked against those.
If you are running Mac OSX and using homebrew we provide homebrew-mpv, an up to date formula that compiles mpv with sensible dependencies and defaults for OSX.
configure --enable-* parameters
The --enable-* parameters unconditionally force options on, completely skipping autodetection. This behavior is unlike what you may be used to from autoconf-based configure scripts that can decide to override you. This greater level of control comes at a price. You may have to provide the correct compiler and linker flags yourself. If you used one of these options and experience a compilation or linking failure, make sure you have passed the necessary compiler/linker flags to configure.

Contributing
For small changes you can just send us pull requests through GitHub. For bigger changes come and talk to us on IRC before you start working on them. It will make code review easier for both parties later on.
