mpv.net VS LAVFilters

There's a pinned issue on the github page about the state of mpv.net development from January 2023 where the dev says that they started working on a cross-platform successor of mpv.net instead.

mpv.net - A great open-source lightweight video player based on mpv with support for many formats and extensive configuration. Replaces MPC, VLC, PotPlayer, Windows Media Player, etc. Strongly recommend replacing your current video player with this, since programs like VLC are bloated and can have issues playing back videos and exhibit weird artifacts.

You can use mpv (I use mpv.net as GUI) since IINA is just based on it.

https://github.com/mpvnet-player/mpv.net in the microsoft store too. get with the times, gramps

The binary is hosted on github https://github.com/mpvnet-player/mpv.net

mpv.net for a more beginner-friendly version.

Now on to the second solution. This is divided into 2 sub options. Either stock MPV which doesn't have much of a UI and relies on the user knowing various hotkeys, or MPV.net which has a UI but won't have all the latest updates from mainline MPV. For stock MPV you will need to have 7zip installed.

Music player: A decent media player that I've used is MPV.Net, while not strictly for audio, it can be used to play audio. Alternatively, I use foobar2000.

in Lua Script I try to debug, but it required "libmpv-2", when I require the module it failed, is anybody know how to debug? my launch settings are from here:https://github.com/mpvnet-player/mpv.net/wiki/Extending-mpv-and-mpv.net-via-Lua-scripting

Install lav filters on your pc because I think that the cutscenes use it. Get it from https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases. Try it and let me know what happens.

The first is that it's a codec issue. I don't know what codec they'd be using but you may need to install another decoder to get it to play cleanly. With a bit of luck it's part of the LibAV collection, so LAVFilters should include it and installing those may be enough on their own.

You could also install any DirectShow codec. Such as LAVFilters. (https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters)

K-Lite is still around? I just use clsid's MPC-HC and LAVFilters now that CCCP is dead. I've seen some cases where this combination worked much better than VLC (video playback in VLC was choppy, while MPC-HC+LAVf worked fine).

is it this? https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases

If you have your speakers/av amp setup over HDMI then your best bet as others have suggested it to bitstream it. personally I always use LAVFilters with PotPlayer, they support pretty much every format under the sun and support bitstreaming as a per format option.

You could also try LAV filters.

Yes, and sadly yes. LAVfilters and clsid's MPC-HC are decent replacements.
