After a year of development open source video player release , a few years ago from the project codebase . MPV's focus is on developing new features and ensuring that new features are constantly backported from the MPlayer repositories without concern for maintaining compatibility with MPlayer. MPV Code under the LGPLv2.1+ license, some parts remain under the GPLv2, but the process of migrating to the LGPL is almost complete and the --enable-lgpl option can be used to disable the remaining GPL code.
In the new version:
- Built-in rendering layer using the graphics API
Vulkan has been replaced by a library-based implementation , developed by the VideoLAN project; - Added support for commands with the “async” flag, allowing you to encode and write files asynchronously;
- Added commands “subprocess”, “video-add”, “video-remove”, “video-reload”;
- Added support for gamepads (via SDL2) and the ability to use named arguments to the input module;
- Added support for the Wayland protocol “xdg-decoration” for decorating windows on the server side;
- Added support for presentation feedback to the vo_drm, context_drm_egl and vo_gpu modules (d3d11) to prevent inconsistent rendering;
- The vo_gpu module has added the ability to dissipate errors for dithering;
- Added support for 30bpp mode (color 30 bits per channel) to the vo_drm module;
- The vo_wayland module has been renamed to vo_wlshm;
- Added the ability to enhance the visibility of dark scenes when ;
- In vo_gpu for x11, the vdpau check code has been removed and EGL is used by default;
- Removed most of the code related to optical drive support. The vdpau/GLX, mali-fbdev and hwdec_d3d11eglrgb backends have been removed from vo_gpu;
- Added the ability to play in reverse order;
- The demux module implements a disk cache and adds the dump-cache command, which can be used to record streams;
- The “--demuxer-cue-codepage” option has been added to the demux_cue module to select the encoding for data from files in the CUE format;
- The requirements for the FFmpeg version have been increased; it now requires at least release 4.0 to work.
