This adds an "auto" choice to the concurrent-frames suboption, and makes it the default. I'm not so sure about making this the default, though. It could lead to excessive buffering with large CPU counts. But we'll see.

VIDEO FILTERS
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Video filters allow you to modify the video stream and its properties. The
|
|
syntax is:
|
|
|
|
``--vf=<filter1[=parameter1:parameter2:...],filter2,...>``
|
|
Setup a chain of video filters.
|
|
|
|
You can also set defaults for each filter. The defaults are applied before the
|
|
normal filter parameters.
|
|
|
|
``--vf-defaults=<filter1[=parameter1:parameter2:...],filter2,...>``
|
|
Set defaults for each filter.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
To get a full list of available video filters, see ``--vf=help``.
|
|
|
|
Video filters are managed in lists. There are a few commands to manage the
|
|
filter list.
|
|
|
|
``--vf-add=<filter1[,filter2,...]>``
|
|
Appends the filters given as arguments to the filter list.
|
|
|
|
``--vf-pre=<filter1[,filter2,...]>``
|
|
Prepends the filters given as arguments to the filter list.
|
|
|
|
``--vf-del=<index1[,index2,...]>``
|
|
Deletes the filters at the given indexes. Index numbers start at 0,
|
|
negative numbers address the end of the list (-1 is the last).
|
|
|
|
``--vf-clr``
|
|
Completely empties the filter list.
|
|
|
|
With filters that support it, you can access parameters by their name.
|
|
|
|
``--vf=<filter>=help``
|
|
Prints the parameter names and parameter value ranges for a particular
|
|
filter.
|
|
|
|
``--vf=<filter=named_parameter1=value1[:named_parameter2=value2:...]>``
|
|
Sets a named parameter to the given value. Use on and off or yes and no to
|
|
set flag parameters.
|
|
|
|
Available filters are:
|
|
|
|
``crop[=w:h:x:y]``
|
|
Crops the given part of the image and discards the rest. Useful to remove
|
|
black bands from widescreen videos.
|
|
|
|
``<w>,<h>``
|
|
Cropped width and height, defaults to original width and height.
|
|
``<x>,<y>``
|
|
Position of the cropped picture, defaults to center.
|
|
|
|
``expand[=w:h:x:y:aspect:round]``
|
|
Expands (not scales) video resolution to the given value and places the
|
|
unscaled original at coordinates x, y.
|
|
|
|
``<w>,<h>``
|
|
Expanded width,height (default: original width,height). Negative
|
|
values for w and h are treated as offsets to the original size.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example
|
|
|
|
``expand=0:-50:0:0``
|
|
Adds a 50 pixel border to the bottom of the picture.

|
|
``<x>,<y>``
|
|
position of original image on the expanded image (default: center)
|
|
|
|
``<aspect>``
|
|
Expands to fit an aspect instead of a resolution (default: 0).
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example
|
|
|
|
``expand=800::::4/3``
|
|
Expands to 800x600, unless the source is higher resolution, in
|
|
which case it expands to fill a 4/3 aspect.

``scale[=w:h:param:param2:chr-drop:noup:arnd``
|
|
Scales the image with the software scaler (slow) and performs a YUV<->RGB
|
|
color space conversion (see also ``--sws``).
|
|
|
|
All parameters are optional.
|
|
|
|
``<w>,<h>``
|
|
scaled width/height (default: original width/height)
|
|
|
|
:0: scaled d_width/d_height

|
|
|
|
``dsize[=w:h:aspect-method:r:aspect]``
|
|
Changes the intended display size/aspect at an arbitrary point in the
|
|
filter chain. Aspect can be given as a fraction (4/3) or floating point
|
|
number (1.33). Alternatively, you may specify the exact display width and
|
|
height desired. Note that this filter does *not* do any scaling itself; it
|
|
just affects what later scalers (software or hardware) will do when
|
|
auto-scaling to correct aspect.
|
|
|
|
``<w>,<h>``
|
|
New display width and height.
|
|
|
|
Can also be these special values:
|
|
|
|
:0: original display width and height
|
|
:-1: original video width and height (default)
|
|
:-2: Calculate w/h using the other dimension and the original display
|
|
aspect ratio.
|
|
:-3: Calculate w/h using the other dimension and the original video
|
|
aspect ratio.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example
|
|
|
|
``dsize=800:-2``
|
|
Specifies a display resolution of 800x600 for a 4/3 aspect
|
|
video, or 800x450 for a 16/9 aspect video.
|
|
|
|
``<aspect-method>``
|
|
Modifies width and height according to original aspect ratios.
|
|
|
|
:-1: Ignore original aspect ratio (default).
|
|
:0: Keep display aspect ratio by using ``<w>`` and ``<h>`` as maximum
|
|
resolution.
|
|
:1: Keep display aspect ratio by using ``<w>`` and ``<h>`` as minimum
|
|
resolution.
|
|
:2: Keep video aspect ratio by using ``<w>`` and ``<h>`` as maximum
|
|
resolution.
|
|
:3: Keep video aspect ratio by using ``<w>`` and ``<h>`` as minimum
|
|
resolution.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example
|
|
|
|
``dsize=800:600:0``
|
|
Specifies a display resolution of at most 800x600, or smaller,
|
|
in order to keep aspect.
|
|
|
|
``<r>``
|
|
Rounds up to make both width and height divisible by ``<r>``
|
|
(default: 1).
|
|
|
|
``<aspect>``
|
|
Force an aspect ratio.
|
|
|
|
``format[=fmt[:outfmt]]``
|
|
Restricts the color space for the next filter without doing any conversion.
|
|
Use together with the scale filter for a real conversion.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
For a list of available formats, see ``format=fmt=help``.
|
|
|
|
``<fmt>``
|
|
Format name, e.g. rgb15, bgr24, 420p, etc. (default: yuyv).
|
|
``<outfmt>``
|
|
Format name that should be substituted for the output. If this is not
|
|
100% compatible with the ``<fmt>`` value, it will crash.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Examples
|
|
|
|
====================== =====================
|
|
Valid Invalid (will crash)
|
|
====================== =====================
|
|
``format=rgb24:bgr24`` ``format=rgb24:420p``
|
|
``format=yuyv:uyvy``
|
|
====================== =====================
|
|
|
|
``noformat[=fmt]``
|
|
Restricts the color space for the next filter without doing any conversion.
|
|
Unlike the format filter, this will allow any color space except the one
|
|
you specify.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: For a list of available formats, see ``noformat=fmt=help``.
|
|
|
|
``<fmt>``
|
|
Format name, e.g. rgb15, bgr24, 420p, etc. (default: 420p).
|
|
|
|
``lavfi=graph[:sws-flags[:o=opts]]``
|
|
Filter video using FFmpeg's libavfilter.
|
|
|
|
``<graph>``
|
|
The libavfilter graph string. The filter must have a single video input
|
|
pad and a single video output pad.
|
|
|
|
See `<https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html>`_ for syntax and available
|
|
filters.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
If you want to use the full filter syntax with this option, you have
|
|
to quote the filter graph in order to prevent mpv's syntax and the
|
|
filter graph syntax from clashing.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Examples
|
|
|
|
``-vf lavfi=[gradfun=20:30,vflip]``
|
|
``gradfun`` filter with nonsense parameters, followed by a
|
|
``vflip`` filter. (This demonstrates how libavfilter takes a
|
|
graph and not just a single filter.) The filter graph string is
|
|
quoted with ``[`` and ``]``. This requires no additional quoting
|
|
or escaping with some shells (like bash), while others (like
|
|
zsh) require additional ``"`` quotes around the option string.
|
|
|
|
``'--vf=lavfi="gradfun=20:30,vflip"'``
|
|
Same as before, but uses quoting that should be safe with all
|
|
shells. The outer ``'`` quotes make sure that the shell does not
|
|
remove the ``"`` quotes needed by mpv.
|
|
|
|
``'--vf=lavfi=graph="gradfun=radius=30:strength=20,vflip"'``
|
|
Same as before, but uses named parameters for everything.
|
|
|
|
``<sws-flags>``
|
|
If libavfilter inserts filters for pixel format conversion, this
|
|
option gives the flags which should be passed to libswscale. This
|
|
option is numeric and takes a bit-wise combination of ``SWS_`` flags.
|
|
|
|
See ``http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libswscale/swscale.h``.
|
|
|
|
``<o>``
|
|
Set AVFilterGraph options. These should be documented by FFmpeg.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example
|
|
|
|
``'--vf=lavfi=yadif:o="threads=2,thread_type=slice"'``
|
|
forces a specific threading configuration.
|
|
|
|
``noise[=<strength>[:averaged][:pattern][:temporal][:uniform][:hq]``
|
|
Adds noise.
|
|
|
|
``strength``
|
|
Set the noise for all components. If you want different strength
|
|
values for luma and chroma, use libavfilter's noise filter directly
|
|
(using ``--vf=lavfi=[noise=...]``), or tell the libavfilter developers
|
|
to stop being stupid.
|
|
|
|
``averaged``
|
|
averaged temporal noise (smoother, but a lot slower)
|
|
|
|
``pattern``
|
|
mix random noise with a (semi)regular pattern
|
|
|
|
``temporal``
|
|
temporal noise (noise pattern changes between frames)
|
|
|
|
``uniform``
|
|
uniform noise (Gaussian otherwise)
|
|
|
|
``hq``
|
|
high quality (slightly better looking, slightly slower) - not available
|
|
when using libavfilter
|
|
|
|
``hqdn3d[=luma_spatial:chroma_spatial:luma_tmp:chroma_tmp]``
|
|
This filter aims to reduce image noise producing smooth images and making
|
|
still images really still (This should enhance compressibility.).
|
|
|
|
``<luma_spatial>``
|
|
spatial luma strength (default: 4)
|
|
``<chroma_spatial>``
|
|
spatial chroma strength (default: 3)
|
|
``<luma_tmp>``
|
|
luma temporal strength (default: 6)
|
|
``<chroma_tmp>``
|
|
chroma temporal strength (default:
|
|
``luma_tmp*chroma_spatial/luma_spatial``)
|
|
|
|
``eq[=gamma:contrast:brightness:saturation:rg:gg:bg:weight]``
|
|
Software equalizer that uses lookup tables (slow), allowing gamma correction
|
|
in addition to simple brightness and contrast adjustment. The parameters are
|
|
given as floating point values.
|
|
|
|
``<0.1-10>``
|
|
initial gamma value (default: 1.0)
|
|
``<-2-2>``
|
|
initial contrast, where negative values result in a negative image
|
|
(default: 1.0)
|
|
``<-1-1>``
|
|
initial brightness (default: 0.0)
|
|
``<0-3>``
|
|
initial saturation (default: 1.0)
|
|
``<0.1-10>``
|
|
gamma value for the red component (default: 1.0)
|
|
``<0.1-10>``
|
|
gamma value for the green component (default: 1.0)
|
|
``<0.1-10>``
|
|
gamma value for the blue component (default: 1.0)
|
|
``<0-1>``
|
|
The weight parameter can be used to reduce the effect of a high gamma
|
|
value on bright image areas, e.g. keep them from getting overamplified
|
|
and just plain white. A value of 0.0 turns the gamma correction all
|
|
the way down while 1.0 leaves it at its full strength (default: 1.0).
|
|
|
|
``ilpack[=mode]``
|
|
When interlaced video is stored in YUV 4:2:0 formats, chroma interlacing
|
|
does not line up properly due to vertical downsampling of the chroma
|
|
channels. This filter packs the planar 4:2:0 data into YUY2 (4:2:2) format
|
|
with the chroma lines in their proper locations, so that in any given
|
|
scanline, the luma and chroma data both come from the same field.
|
|
|
|
``<mode>``
|
|
Select the sampling mode.
|
|
|
|
:0: nearest-neighbor sampling, fast but incorrect
|
|
:1: linear interpolation (default)
|
|
|
|
``unsharp[=lx:ly:la:cx:cy:ca]``
|
|
unsharp mask / Gaussian blur
|
|
|
|
``l`` is for the luma component, ``c`` for the chroma component. ``x``/``y``
|
|
is the filter size. ``a`` is the amount.
|
|
|
|
``lx``, ``ly``, ``cx``, ``cy``
|
|
width and height of the matrix, odd sized in both directions (min =
|
|
3:3, max = 13:11 or 11:13, usually something between 3:3 and 7:7)
|
|
|
|
``la``, ``ca``
|
|
Relative amount of sharpness/blur to add to the image (a sane range
|
|
should be -1.5-1.5).
|
|
|
|
:<0: blur
|
|
:>0: sharpen
|
|
|
|
``swapuv``
|
|
Swap U & V plane.
|
|
|
|
``pullup[=jl:jr:jt:jb:sb:mp]``
|
|
Pulldown reversal (inverse telecine) filter, capable of handling mixed
|
|
hard-telecine, 24000/1001 fps progressive, and 30000/1001 fps progressive
|
|
content. The ``pullup`` filter makes use of future context in making its
|
|
decisions. It is stateless in the sense that it does not lock onto a pattern
|
|
to follow, but it instead looks forward to the following fields in order to
|
|
identify matches and rebuild progressive frames.
|
|
|
|
``jl``, ``jr``, ``jt``, and ``jb``
|
|
These options set the amount of "junk" to ignore at the left, right,
|
|
top, and bottom of the image, respectively. Left/right are in units of
|
|
8 pixels, while top/bottom are in units of 2 lines. The default is 8
|
|
pixels on each side.
|
|
|
|
``sb`` (strict breaks)
|
|
Setting this option to 1 will reduce the chances of ``pullup``
|
|
generating an occasional mismatched frame, but it may also cause an
|
|
excessive number of frames to be dropped during high motion sequences.
|
|
Conversely, setting it to -1 will make ``pullup`` match fields more
|
|
easily. This may help processing of video where there is slight
|
|
blurring between the fields, but may also cause there to be interlaced
|
|
frames in the output.
|
|
|
|
``mp`` (metric plane)
|
|
This option may be set to ``u`` or ``v`` to use a chroma plane instead of the
|
|
luma plane for doing ``pullup``'s computations. This may improve accuracy
|
|
on very clean source material, but more likely will decrease accuracy,
|
|
especially if there is chroma noise (rainbow effect) or any grayscale
|
|
video. The main purpose of setting ``mp`` to a chroma plane is to reduce
|
|
CPU load and make pullup usable in realtime on slow machines.
|
|
|
|
``divtc[=options]``
|
|
Inverse telecine for deinterlaced video. If 3:2-pulldown telecined video
|
|
has lost one of the fields or is deinterlaced using a method that keeps
|
|
one field and interpolates the other, the result is a juddering video that
|
|
has every fourth frame duplicated. This filter is intended to find and
|
|
drop those duplicates and restore the original film framerate. Two
|
|
different modes are available: One-pass mode is the default and is
|
|
straightforward to use, but has the disadvantage that any changes in the
|
|
telecine phase (lost frames or bad edits) cause momentary judder until the
|
|
filter can resync again. Two-pass mode avoids this by analyzing the entire
|
|
video beforehand so it will have forward knowledge about the phase changes
|
|
and can resync at the exact spot. These passes do *not* correspond to pass
|
|
one and two of the encoding process. You must run an extra pass using
|
|
``divtc`` pass one before the actual encoding throwing the resulting video
|
|
away. Then use ``divtc`` pass two for the actual encoding. If you use
|
|
multiple encoder passes, use ``divtc`` pass two for all of them.
|
|
|
|
The options are:
|
|
|
|
``pass=1|2``
|
|
Use two pass mode.
|
|
|
|
``file=<filename>``
|
|
Set the two pass log filename (default: ``framediff.log``).
|
|
|
|
``threshold=<value>``
|
|
Set the minimum strength the telecine pattern must have for the filter
|
|
to believe in it (default: 0.5). This is used to avoid recognizing
|
|
false pattern from the parts of the video that are very dark or very
|
|
still.
|
|
|
|
``window=<numframes>``
|
|
Set the number of past frames to look at when searching for pattern
|
|
(default: 30). Longer window improves the reliability of the pattern
|
|
search, but shorter window improves the reaction time to the changes
|
|
in the telecine phase. This only affects the one-pass mode. The
|
|
two-pass mode currently uses fixed window that extends to both future
|
|
and past.
|
|
|
|
``phase=0|1|2|3|4``
|
|
Sets the initial telecine phase for one pass mode (default: 0). The
|
|
two-pass mode can see the future, so it is able to use the correct
|
|
phase from the beginning, but one-pass mode can only guess. It catches
|
|
the correct phase when it finds it, but this option can be used to fix
|
|
the possible juddering at the beginning. The first pass of the two
|
|
pass mode also uses this, so if you save the output from the first
|
|
pass, you get constant phase result.
|
|
|
|
``deghost=<value>``
|
|
Set the deghosting threshold (0-255 for one-pass mode, -255-255 for
|
|
two-pass mode, default 0). If nonzero, deghosting mode is used. This
|
|
is for video that has been deinterlaced by blending the fields
|
|
together instead of dropping one of the fields. Deghosting amplifies
|
|
any compression artifacts in the blended frames, so the parameter
|
|
value is used as a threshold to exclude those pixels from deghosting
|
|
that differ from the previous frame less than specified value. If two
|
|
pass mode is used, then negative value can be used to make the filter
|
|
analyze the whole video in the beginning of pass-2 to determine
|
|
whether it needs deghosting or not and then select either zero or the
|
|
absolute value of the parameter. Specify this option for pass 2, it
|
|
makes no difference on pass 1.
|
|
|
|
``phase[=t|b|p|a|u|T|B|A|U][:v]``
|
|
Delay interlaced video by one field time so that the field order changes.
|
|
The intended use is to fix PAL videos that have been captured with the
|
|
opposite field order to the film-to-video transfer. The options are:
|
|
|
|
``t``
|
|
Capture field order top-first, transfer bottom-first. Filter will
|
|
delay the bottom field.
|
|
|
|
``b``
|
|
Capture bottom-first, transfer top-first. Filter will delay the top
|
|
field.
|
|
|
|
``p``
|
|
Capture and transfer with the same field order. This mode only exists
|
|
for the documentation of the other options to refer to, but if you
|
|
actually select it, the filter will faithfully do nothing ;-)
|
|
|
|
``a``
|
|
Capture field order determined automatically by field flags, transfer
|
|
opposite. Filter selects among ``t`` and ``b`` modes on a frame by frame
|
|
basis using field flags. If no field information is available, then this
|
|
works just like ``u``.
|
|
|
|
``u``
|
|
Capture unknown or varying, transfer opposite. Filter selects among
|
|
``t`` and ``b`` on a frame by frame basis by analyzing the images and
|
|
selecting the alternative that produces best match between the fields.
|
|
|
|
``T``
|
|
Capture top-first, transfer unknown or varying. Filter selects among
|
|
``t`` and ``p`` using image analysis.
|
|
|
|
``B``
|
|
Capture bottom-first, transfer unknown or varying. Filter selects
|
|
among ``b`` and ``p`` using image analysis.
|
|
|
|
``A``
|
|
Capture determined by field flags, transfer unknown or varying. Filter
|
|
selects among ``t``, ``b`` and ``p`` using field flags and image
|
|
analysis. If no field information is available, then this works just
|
|
like ``U``. This is the default mode.
|
|
|
|
``U``
|
|
Both capture and transfer unknown or varying. Filter selects among
|
|
``t``, ``b`` and ``p`` using image analysis only.
|
|
|
|
``v``
|
|
Verbose operation. Prints the selected mode for each frame and the
|
|
average squared difference between fields for ``t``, ``b``, and ``p``
|
|
alternatives. (Ignored when libavfilter is used.)
|
|
|
|
``yadif=[mode[:enabled=yes|no]]``
|
|
Yet another deinterlacing filter
|
|
|
|
``<mode>``
|
|
:frame: Output 1 frame for each frame.
|
|
:field: Output 1 frame for each field.
|
|
:frame-nospatial: Like ``frame`` but skips spatial interlacing check.
|
|
:field-nospatial: Like ``field`` but skips spatial interlacing check.
|
|
|
|
``<enabled>``
|
|
:yes: Filter is active (default).
|
|
:no: Filter is not active, but can be activated with the ``D`` key
|
|
(or any other key that toggles the ``deinterlace`` property).
|
|
|
|
This filter, is automatically inserted when using the ``D`` key (or any
|
|
other key that toggles the ``deinterlace`` property or when using the
|
|
``--deinterlace`` switch), assuming the video output does not have native
|
|
deinterlacing support.
|
|
|
|
If you just want to set the default mode, put this filter and its options
|
|
into ``--vf-defaults`` instead, and enable deinterlacing with ``D`` or
|
|
``--deinterlace``.
|
|
|
|
Also note that the ``D`` key is stupid enough to insert an interlacer twice
|
|
when inserting yadif with ``--vf``, so using the above methods is
|
|
recommended.
|
|
|
|
``delogo[=x:y:w:h:t:show]``
|
|
Suppresses a TV station logo by a simple interpolation of the surrounding
|
|
pixels. Just set a rectangle covering the logo and watch it disappear (and
|
|
sometimes something even uglier appear - your mileage may vary).
|
|
|
|
``<x>,<y>``
|
|
top left corner of the logo
|
|
``<w>,<h>``
|
|
width and height of the cleared rectangle
|
|
``<t>``
|
|
Thickness of the fuzzy edge of the rectangle (added to ``w`` and
|
|
``h``). When set to -1, a green rectangle is drawn on the screen to
|
|
simplify finding the right ``x``,``y``,``w``,``h`` parameters.
|
|
``show``
|
|
Draw a rectangle showing the area defined by x/y/w/h.
|
|
|
|
``screenshot``
|
|
Optional filter for screenshot support. This is only needed if the video
|
|
output does not provide working direct screenshot support. Note that it is
|
|
not always safe to insert this filter by default. See `TAKING SCREENSHOTS`_
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
``sub=[=bottom-margin:top-margin]``
|
|
Moves subtitle rendering to an arbitrary point in the filter chain, or force
|
|
subtitle rendering in the video filter as opposed to using video output OSD
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
``<bottom-margin>``
|
|
Adds a black band at the bottom of the frame. The SSA/ASS renderer can
|
|
place subtitles there (with ``--ass-use-margins``).
|
|
``<top-margin>``
|
|
Black band on the top for toptitles (with ``--ass-use-margins``).
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Examples
|
|
|
|
``--vf=sub,eq``
|
|
Moves sub rendering before the eq filter. This will put both
|
|
subtitle colors and video under the influence of the video equalizer
|
|
settings.
|
|
|
|
``stereo3d[=in:out]``
|
|
Stereo3d converts between different stereoscopic image formats.

|
|
on right eye)
|
|
``arcc`` or ``anaglyph_red_cyan_color``
|

|
|
|
|
``gradfun[=strength[:radius|:size=<size>]]``
|
|
Fix the banding artifacts that are sometimes introduced into nearly flat
|
|
regions by truncation to 8-bit color depth. Interpolates the gradients that
|
|
should go where the bands are, and dithers them.
|
|
|
|
``<strength>``
|
|
Maximum amount by which the filter will change any one pixel. Also the
|
|
threshold for detecting nearly flat regions (default: 1.5).
|
|
|
|
``<radius>``
|
|
Neighborhood to fit the gradient to. Larger radius makes for smoother
|
|
gradients, but also prevents the filter from modifying pixels near
|
|
detailed regions (default: disabled).
|
|
|
|
``<size>``
|
|
size of the filter in percent of the image diagonal size. This is
|
|
used to calculate the final radius size (default: 1).
|
|
|
|
|
|
``dlopen=dll[:a0[:a1[:a2[:a3]]]]``
|
|
Loads an external library to filter the image. The library interface
|
|
is the ``vf_dlopen`` interface specified using ``libmpcodecs/vf_dlopen.h``.
|
|
|
|
``dll=<library>``
|
|
Specify the library to load. This may require a full file system path
|
|
in some cases. This argument is required.
|
|
|
|
``a0=<string>``
|
|
Specify the first parameter to pass to the library.
|
|
|
|
``a1=<string>``
|
|
Specify the second parameter to pass to the library.
|
|
|
|
``a2=<string>``
|
|
Specify the third parameter to pass to the library.
|
|
|
|
``a3=<string>``
|
|
Specify the fourth parameter to pass to the library.
|
|
|
|
``vapoursynth=file:buffered-frames:concurrent-frames``
|
|
Loads a VapourSynth filter script. This is intended for streamed
|
|
processing: mpv actually provides a source filter, instead of using a
|
|
native VapourSynth video source. The mpv source will answer frame
|
|
requests only within a small window of frames (the size of this window
|
|
is controlled with the ``buffered-frames`` parameter), and requests outside
|
|
of that will return errors. As such, you can't use the full power of
|
|
VapourSynth, but you can use certain filters.
|
|
|
|
If you just want to play video generated by a VapourSynth (i.e. using
|
|
a native VapourSynth video source), it's better to use ``vspipe`` and a
|
|
FIFO to feed the video to mpv. The same applies if the filter script
|
|
requires random frame access (see ``buffered-frames`` parameter).
|
|
|
|
This filter is experimental. If it turns out that it works well and is
|
|
used, it will be ported to libavfilter. Otherwise, it will be just removed.
|
|
|
|
``file``
|
|
Filename of the script source. Currently, this is always a python
|
|
script. The variable ``video_in`` is set to the mpv video source,
|
|
and it is expected that the script reads video from it. (Otherwise,
|
|
mpv will decode no video, and the video packet queue will overflow,
|
|
eventually leading to audio being stopped.) The script is also
|
|
expected to pass through timestamps using the ``_DurationNum`` and
|
|
``_DurationDen`` frame properties.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
import vapoursynth as vs
|
|
core = vs.get_core()
|
|
core.std.AddBorders(video_in, 10, 10, 20, 20).set_output()
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
The script will be reloaded on every seek. This is done to reset
|
|
the filter properly on discontinuities.
|
|
|
|
``buffered-frames``
|
|
Maximum number of decoded video frames that should be buffered before
|
|
the filter (default: 4). This specifies the maximum number of frames
|
|
the script can requests backwards. E.g. if ``buffered-frames=5``, and
|
|
the script just requested frame 15, it can still request frame 10, but
|
|
frame 9 is not available anymore. If it requests frame 30, mpv will
|
|
decode 15 more frames, and keep only frames 25-30.
|
|
|
|
The actual number of buffered frames also depends on the value of the
|
|
``concurrent-frames`` option. Currently, both option values are
|
|
multiplied to get the final buffer size.
|
|
|
|
(Normally, VapourSynth source filters must provide random access, but
|
|
mpv was made for playback, and does not provide frame-exact random
|
|
access. The way this video filter works is a compromise to make simple
|
|
filters work anyway.)
|
|
|
|
``concurrent-frames``
|
|
Number of frames that should be requested in parallel. The
|
|
level of concurrency depends on the filter and how quickly mpv can
|
|
decode video to feed the filter. This value should probably be
|
|
proportional to the number of cores on your machine. Most time,
|
|
making it higher than the number of cores can actually make it
|
|
slower.
|
|
|
|
By default, this uses the special value ``auto``, which sets the option
|
|
to the number of detected logical CPU cores.
|
|
|
|
The following variables are defined by mpv:
|
|
|
|
``video_in``
|
|
The mpv video source as vapoursynth clip. Note that this has no length
|
|
set, which confuses many filters. Using ``Trim`` on the clip with a
|
|
high dummy length can turn it into a finite clip.
|
|
|
|
``video_in_dw``, ``video_in_dh``
|
|
Display size of the video. Can be different from video size if the
|
|
video does not use square pixels (e.g. DVD).
|
|
|
|
``container_fps``
|
|
FPS value as reported by file headers. This value can be wrong or
|
|
completely broken (e.g. 0 or NaN). Even if the value is correct,
|
|
if another filter changes the real FPS (by dropping or inserting
|
|
frames), the value of this variable might not be useful. Note that
|
|
the ``--fps`` command line option overrides this value.
|
|
|
|
Useful for some filters which insist on having a FPS.
|
|
|
|
``vapoursynth-lazy``
|
|
The same as ``vapoursynth``, but doesn't load Python scripts. Instead, a
|
|
custom backend using Lua and the raw VapourSynth API is used. The syntax
|
|
is completely different, and absolutely no conveniencve features are
|
|
provided. There's no type checking either, and you can trigger crashes.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Example:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
video_out = invoke("morpho", "Open", {clip = video_in})
|
|
|
|
The special variable ``video_in`` is the mpv video source, while the
|
|
special variable ``video_out`` is used to read video from. The 1st argument
|
|
is the plugin (queried with ``getPluginByNs``), the 2nd is the filter name,
|
|
and the 3rd argument is a table with the arguments. Positional arguments
|
|
are not supported. The types must match exactly. Since Lua is terrible and
|
|
can't distinguish integers and floats, integer arguments must be prefixed
|
|
with ``i_``, in which case the prefix is removed and the argument is cast
|
|
to an integer. Should the argument's name start with ``i_``, you're out of
|
|
luck.
|
|
|
|
Clips (VSNodeRef) are passed as light userdata, so trying to pass any
|
|
other userdata type will result in hard crashes.
|
|
|
|
``vavpp``
|
|
VA-AP-API video post processing. Works with ``--vo=vaapi`` and ``--vo=opengl``
|
|
only. Currently deinterlaces. This filter is automatically inserted if
|
|
deinterlacing is requested (either using the ``D`` key, by default mapped to
|
|
the command ``cycle deinterlace``, or the ``--deinterlace`` option).
|
|
|
|
``deint=<method>``
|
|
Select the deinterlacing algorithm.
|
|
|
|
no
|
|
Don't perform deinterlacing.
|
|
first-field
|
|
Show only first field (going by ``--field-dominance``).
|
|
bob
|
|
bob deinterlacing (default).
|
|
|
|
``vdpaupp``
|
|
VDPAU video post processing. Works with ``--vo=vdpau`` and ``--vo=opengl``
|
|
only. This filter is automatically inserted if deinterlacing is requested
|
|
(either using the ``D`` key, by default mapped to the command
|
|
``cycle deinterlace``, or the ``--deinterlace`` option). When enabling
|
|
deinterlacing, it is always preferred over software deinterlacer filters
|
|
if the ``vdpau`` VO is used, and also if ``opengl`` is used and hardware
|
|
decoding was activated at least once (i.e. vdpau was loaded).
|
|
|
|
``sharpen=<-1-1>``
|
|
For positive values, apply a sharpening algorithm to the video, for
|
|
negative values a blurring algorithm (default: 0).
|
|
``denoise=<0-1>``
|
|
Apply a noise reduction algorithm to the video (default: 0; no noise
|
|
reduction).
|
|
``deint=<yes|no>``
|
|
Whether deinterlacing is enabled (default: no). If enabled, it will use
|
|
the mode selected with ``deint-mode``.
|
|
``deint-mode=<first-field|bob|temporal|temporal-spatial>``
|
|
Select deinterlacing mode (default: temporal).
|
|
All modes respect ``--field-dominance``.
|
|
|
|
Note that there's currently a mechanism that allows the ``vdpau`` VO to
|
|
change the ``deint-mode`` of auto-inserted ``vdpaupp`` filters. To avoid
|
|
confusion, it's recommended not to use the ``--vo=vdpau`` suboptions
|
|
related to filtering.
|
|
|
|
first-field
|
|
Show only first field.
|
|
bob
|
|
Bob deinterlacing.
|
|
temporal
|
|
Motion-adaptive temporal deinterlacing. May lead to A/V desync
|
|
with slow video hardware and/or high resolution.
|
|
temporal-spatial
|
|
Motion-adaptive temporal deinterlacing with edge-guided spatial
|
|
interpolation. Needs fast video hardware.
|
|
``chroma-deint``
|
|
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``
|
|
Try to apply inverse telecine, needs motion adaptive temporal
|
|
deinterlacing.
|
|
``hqscaling=<0-9>``
|
|
0
|
|
Use default VDPAU scaling (default).
|
|
1-9
|
|
Apply high quality VDPAU scaling (needs capable hardware).
|
|
|
|
``buffer=<num>``
|
|
Buffer ``<num>`` frames in the filter chain. This filter is probably pretty
|
|
useless, except for debugging. (Note that this won't help smoothing out
|
|
latencies with decoding, because the filter will never output a frame if
|
|
the buffer isn't full, except on EOF.)
|
