It supports a wide variety of media file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types. There is a [FAQ][FAQ]. Releases can be found on the [release list][releases]. System requirements - A not too ancient Linux (usually, only the latest releases of distributions are actively supported), Windows 10 1607 or later, or macOS 10.15 or later. - A somewhat capable CPU. Hardware decoding might help if the CPU is too slow to decode video in realtime, but must be explicitly enabled with the --hwdec option. - A not too crappy GPU. mpv's focus is not on power-efficient playback on embedded or integrated GPUs (for example, hardware decoding is not even enabled by default). Low power GPUs may cause issues like tearing, stutter, etc. On such GPUs, it's recommended to use --profile=fast for smooth playback. The main video output uses shaders for video rendering and scaling, rather than GPU fixed function hardware. On Windows, you might want to make sure the graphics drivers are current. In some cases, ancient fallback video output methods can help (such as --vo=xv on Linux), but this use is not recommended or supported. mpv does not go out of its way to break on older hardware or old, unsupported operating systems, but developmen","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/mpv-player","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/mpv-player/mpv/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
