A "watch later" command is now mapped to Shift+Q. This quits the player and stores the playback state in a config file in ~/.mpv/watch_later/. When calling the player with the same file again, playback is resumed at that time position. It's also possible to make mpv save playback state always on quit with the --save-position-on-quit option. Likewise, resuming can be disabled with the --no-resume-playback option. This also attempts to save some playback parameters, like fullscreen state or track selection. This will unconditionally override config settings and command line options (which is probably not what you would expect, but in general nobody will really care about this). Some things are not backed up, because that would cause various problems. Additional subtitle files, video filters, etc. are not stored because that would be too hard and fragile. Volume/mute state are not stored because it would mess up if the system mixer is used, or if the system mixer was readjusted in the meantime. Basically, the tradeoff between perfect state restoration and complexity/fragility makes it not worth to attempt to implement it perfectly, even if the result is a little bit inconsistent.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
**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. Special input URL
|
|
types are available to read input from a variety of sources other than disk
|
|
files. Depending on platform, a variety of different video and audio output
|
|
methods are supported.
|
|
|
|
Usage examples to get you started quickly can be found at the end of this man
|
|
page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
INTERACTIVE CONTROL
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
mpv has a fully configurable, command-driven control layer which allows you
|
|
to control mpv using keyboard, mouse, joystick or remote control (with
|
|
LIRC). See the ``--input-`` options for ways to customize it.

|
USAGE
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
Every *flag* option has a *no-flag* counterpart, e.g. the opposite of the
|
|
``--fs`` option is ``--no-fs``. ``--fs=yes`` is same as ``--fs``, ``--fs=no``
|
|
is the same as ``--no-fs``.
|
|
|
|
If an option is marked as *(XXX only)*, it will only work in combination with
|
|
the *XXX* option or if *XXX* is compiled in.
|
|
|
|
| *NOTE*: The suboption parser (used for example for ``--ao=pcm`` suboptions)
|
|
supports a special kind of string-escaping intended for use with external
|
|
GUIs.
|
|
| It has the following format:
|
|
| %n%string\_of\_length\_n
|
|
|
|
| *EXAMPLES*:
|
|
| `mpv --ao=pcm:file=%10%C:test.wav test.avi`
|
|
| Or in a script:
|
|
| `mpv --ao=pcm:file=%\`expr length "$NAME"\`%"$NAME" test.avi`
|
|
|
|
Per-file options
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
When playing multiple files, any option given on the command line usually
|
|
affects all files. Example:
|
|
|
|
`mpv --a file1.mkv --b file2.mkv --c`
|
|
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| File | Active options |
|
|
+===========+=========================+
|
|
| file1.mkv | --a --b --c |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| file2.mkv | --a --b --c |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
|
|
Also, if any option is changed at runtime (via input commands), they aren't
|
|
reset when a new file is played.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, it's useful to change options per-file. This can be achieved by
|
|
adding the special per-file markers `--{` and `--}`. (Note that you must
|
|
escape these on some shells.) Example:
|
|
|
|
`mpv --a file1.mkv --b --\\\{ --c file2.mkv --d file3.mkv --e --\\\} file4.mkv --f`
|
|
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| File | Active options |
|
|
+===========+=========================+
|
|
| file1.mkv | --a --b --f |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| file2.mkv | --a --b --f --c --d --e |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| file3.mkv | --a --b --f --c --d --e |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
| file4.mkv | --a --b --f |
|
|
+-----------+-------------------------+
|
|
|
|
Additionally, any file-local option changed at runtime is reset when the current
|
|
file stops playing. If option ``--c`` is changed during playback of `file2.mkv`,
|
|
it's reset when advancing to `file3.mkv`. This only affects file-local options.
|
|
The option ``--a`` is never reset here.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION FILES
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Location and syntax
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
You can put all of the options in configuration files which will be read every
|
|
time mpv is run. The system-wide configuration file 'mpv.conf' is in
|
|
your configuration directory (e.g. ``/etc/mpv`` or
|
|
``/usr/local/etc/mpv``), the user specific one is ``~/.mpv/config``.
|
|
User specific options override system-wide options and options given on the
|
|
command line override either. The syntax of the configuration files is
|
|
``option=<value>``, everything after a *#* is considered a comment. Options
|
|
that work without values can be enabled by setting them to *yes* and disabled by
|
|
setting them to *no*. Even suboptions can be specified in this way.
|
|
|
|
*EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION FILE:*
|
|
|
|
| # Use opengl video output by default.
|
|
| vo=opengl
|
|
| # Use quotes for text that can contain spaces:
|
|
| status-msg="Time: ${time-pos}"
|
|
|
|
Putting command line options into the configuration file
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Almost all command line options can be put into the configuration file. Here
|
|
is a small guide:
|
|
|
|
+----------------------+--------------------------+
|
|
| Option | Configuration file entry |
|
|
+======================+==========================+
|
|
| --flag | flag |
|
|
+----------------------+--------------------------+
|
|
| -opt val | opt=val |
|
|
+----------------------+--------------------------+
|
|
| --opt=val | opt=val |
|
|
+----------------------+--------------------------+
|
|
| -opt "has spaces" | opt="has spaces" |
|
|
+----------------------+--------------------------+
|
|
|
|
File specific configuration files
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can also write file-specific configuration files. If you wish to have a
|
|
configuration file for a file called 'movie.avi', create a file named
|
|
'movie.avi.conf' with the file-specific options in it and put it in
|
|
``~/.mpv/``. You can also put the configuration file in the same directory
|
|
as the file to be played, as long as you give the ``--use-filedir-conf``
|
|
option (either on the command line or in your global config file). If a
|
|
file-specific configuration file is found in the same directory, no
|
|
file-specific configuration is loaded from ``~/.mpv``. In addition, the
|
|
``--use-filedir-conf`` option enables directory-specific configuration files.
|
|
For this, mpv first tries to load a mpv.conf from the same directory
|
|
as the file played and then tries to load any file-specific configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Profiles
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
To ease working with different configurations profiles can be defined in the
|
|
configuration files. A profile starts with its name between square brackets,
|
|
e.g. *[my-profile]*. All following options will be part of the profile. A
|
|
description (shown by ``--profile=help``) can be defined with the profile-desc
|
|
option. To end the profile, start another one or use the profile name
|
|
*default* to continue with normal options.
|
|
|
|
*EXAMPLE MPV PROFILE:*
|
|
|
|
| [vo.vdpau]
|
|
| # Use hardware decoding (this might break playback of some h264 files)
|
|
| hwdec=vdpau
|
|
|
|
|
| [protocol.dvd]
|
|
| profile-desc="profile for dvd:// streams"
|
|
| vf=pp=hb/vb/dr/al/fd
|
|
| alang=en
|
|
|
|
|
| [extension.flv]
|
|
| profile-desc="profile for .flv files"
|
|
| flip=yes

|
Taking screenshots
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Screenshots of the currently played file can be taken using the 'screenshot'
|
|
input mode command, which is by default bound to the ``s`` key. Files named
|
|
``shotNNNN.jpg`` will be saved in the working directory, using the first
|
|
available number - no files will be overwritten.
|
|
|
|
A screenshot will usually contain the unscaled video contents at the end of the
|
|
video filter chain and subtitles. By default the ``S`` takes screenshots without
|
|
subtitles, while ``s`` includes subtitles.
|
|
|
|
The ``screenshot`` video filter is not required when using a recommended GUI
|
|
video output driver. It should normally not be added to the config file, as
|
|
taking screenshots is handled by the VOs, and adding the screenshot filter will
|
|
break hardware decoding. (The filter may still be useful for taking screenshots
|
|
at a certain point within the video chain when using multiple video filters.)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
There are a number of environment variables that can be used to control the
|
|
behavior of mpv.
|
|
|
|
``MPV_HOME``
|
|
Directory where mpv looks for user settings.
|
|
|
|
``MPV_LOCALEDIR``
|
|
Directory where mpv looks for gettext translation files (if enabled).
|
|
|
|
``MPV_VERBOSE`` (see also ``-v`` and ``--msglevel``)
|
|
Set the initial verbosity level across all message modules (default: 0).
|
|
The resulting verbosity corresponds to that of ``--msglevel=5`` plus the
|
|
value of ``MPV_VERBOSE``.
|
|
|
|
libaf:
|
|
``LADSPA_PATH``
|
|
If ``LADSPA_PATH`` is set, it searches for the specified file. If it
|
|
is not set, you must supply a fully specified pathname.
|
|
|
|
FIXME: This is also mentioned in the ladspa section.
|
|
|
|
libdvdcss:
|
|
``DVDCSS_CACHE``
|
|
Specify a directory in which to store title key values. This will
|
|
speed up descrambling of DVDs which are in the cache. The
|
|
``DVDCSS_CACHE`` directory is created if it does not exist, and a
|
|
subdirectory is created named after the DVD's title or manufacturing
|
|
date. If ``DVDCSS_CACHE`` is not set or is empty, libdvdcss will use
|
|
the default value which is ``${HOME}/.dvdcss/`` under Unix and
|
|
``C:\Documents and Settings\$USER\Application Data\dvdcss\`` under
|
|
Win32. The special value "off" disables caching.
|
|
|
|
``DVDCSS_METHOD``
|
|
Sets the authentication and decryption method that libdvdcss will use
|
|
to read scrambled discs. Can be one of title, key or disc.
|
|
|
|
key
|
|
is the default method. libdvdcss will use a set of calculated
|
|
player keys to try and get the disc key. This can fail if the drive
|
|
does not recognize any of the player keys.
|
|
|
|
disc
|
|
is a fallback method when key has failed. Instead of using player
|
|
keys, libdvdcss will crack the disc key using a brute force
|
|
algorithm. This process is CPU intensive and requires 64 MB of
|
|
memory to store temporary data.
|
|
|
|
title
|
|
is the fallback when all other methods have failed. It does not
|
|
rely on a key exchange with the DVD drive, but rather uses a crypto
|
|
attack to guess the title key. On rare cases this may fail because
|
|
there is not enough encrypted data on the disc to perform a
|
|
statistical attack, but on the other hand it is the only way to
|
|
decrypt a DVD stored on a hard disc, or a DVD with the wrong region
|
|
on an RPC2 drive.
|
|
|
|
``DVDCSS_RAW_DEVICE``
|
|
Specify the raw device to use. Exact usage will depend on your
|
|
operating system, the Linux utility to set up raw devices is raw(8)
|
|
for instance. Please note that on most operating systems, using a raw
|
|
device requires highly aligned buffers: Linux requires a 2048 bytes
|
|
alignment (which is the size of a DVD sector).
|
|
|
|
``DVDCSS_VERBOSE``
|
|
Sets the libdvdcss verbosity level.
|
|
|
|
:0: Outputs no messages at all.
|
|
:1: Outputs error messages to stderr.
|
|
:2: Outputs error messages and debug messages to stderr.
|
|
|
|
``DVDREAD_NOKEYS``
|
|
Skip retrieving all keys on startup. Currently disabled.
