Setup a local development environment

The website is created using a static website generator called Middleman. Here's what you need to do to get a copy of the website running on your local machine.

Put Fedora "RPM Fusion" in "Linux packages"

The Fedora "RPM Fusion" repo is up to date now (v0.13 but v0.14 is almost here) so we should put it back in "Linux packages" don't you think ?

By the way the link in the installation page seems to be outdated.

http://rpmfusion.org/

Thank you.

For Ubuntu 14.04 I've had 2 ppa's for some time, both will stay fairly current.
Standalone here, it gets updated every couple of weeks, uses libquvi-0.4
https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/mpv-tests

This ppa (which I use/prefer), gets updated weekly or less, uses libquvi-0.9
Obviously there is much more than just mpv available, though some of which can be helpful to mpv.
https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/trusty-media
The route builds go is 1st. to a proposed ppa for personal testing, then to the trusty media ppa. If there are no issues/complaints then finally to the standalone ppa

I maintain the SlackBuild at SlackBuild.org. Until ffmpeg can be updated there, or I get the 'OK' to build mpv with static ffmpeg, I have an updated version at my github repo. It builds mpv-0.9.2 against ffmpeg-2.6.3. I thought it might be good to have that link as well until I can get the SlackBuild.org package script updated. https://github.com/jvvv/slackbuilds/tree/master/mpv

Void Linux is also packaging MPV in their repositories:

Supported subtitle formats and file extensions

I'm one of those willing to contribute, but not capable enough handling your mpv.io website building environment, hence my contribution here.

• This is the fulfillment of mpv-player/mpv#11934

Section: https://mpv.io/manual/master/#subtitles

Gets this additional chapter, or possible integrated into the "Notes" section at the beginning.

Supported subtitle formats and file extensions

• mpv supports exactly the same subtitle file formats that ffmpeg supports → See ffmpeg documentation → Support matrix Subtitle-Formats → "Decoding" column → Compatibility symbol/remark.

• If you use --sub-auto with option exact or fuzzy or all then mpv looks for matching files which in addition also have one of the supported "autoload" file extensions as defined in external_files.c → sub_exts -- which as of 2023-08-10 are:

  utf, utf8, utf-8, idx, sub, srt, rt, ssa, ass, mks, vtt, sup, scc, smi, lrc, pgs and NULL (that is a file without any extension)

cannot setup a local development environment

I want to make a change, and I want to know if I make a right change.
But I cannot setup a local development environment

Can I just pull the request without a local development.

Has this been tried on the Pi?

Add the subreddit as a community to gain traction

Hi, i just managed to become a mod of a sub that someone made for MPV and spruced it up a bit, Would it be possible to link it on the site so that it gets some traction for mpv users who use reddit.

RPM Package

Please package it for OpenSUSE.

RPMs?

Hi

Any reason there aren't any RPMs for installation on Fedora or other Redhat based or RPM using distros?

Sir, i have issues in playing 1080p mp4 or whatever format. It runs very slow.. and also the player creates new instance ...

The SlackBuilds.org update for mpv.

SlackBuild.org has released a new update, and my updated package for mpv-0.92 is included. I will leave my github repo's version, which bundles ffmpeg, intact for the time being; but the preferred package is again the one that is hosted on SlackBuilds.org. Thank for your continued patience while we were in the process of updating all our SlackBuilds that depended on ffmpeg to link against a more recent version (2.6.3).

Add Flathub to list of unofficial Linux packages

Since the Linux section of https://mpv.io/installation/ says all the offered packages are unofficial, it'd probably be a good idea to include https://flathub.org/apps/details/io.mpv.Mpv as well.

It'll be a suitable option for a lot of distros.

Add link to macOS Application built by GitHub Actions

Here is an example of the latest build as of mpv-player/mpv@6179995. I've been running one of these for a while now on my laptop and it seems to work fine.

Hi!

I was surprised to see that mpv-android is not available from the F-droid repository.

Remove outdated macOS builds

The builds by @jnozsc have fallen behind. There hasn't been a new one since September 2020. I propose we remove the link to them from the website.

You should extend your player to Android TV as well :)

I love mpv and built a distro-agnostic AppImage of version 0.18.0, which bundles all required libraries so that I can run it on my Debian 8 laptop without installing anything. Any interest in providing AppImage as one of the downloadable package formats?

Slackware 'bleeding edge' repo address change

Old address was https://github.com/jvvv/slackbuilds/tree/master/mpv
New address is https://github.com/jvvv/slackbuilds/tree/master/mpv.static_ffmpeg

The old address is meant to be my mirror of the official release package that I update when I submit new package to SlackBuilds.org. I would prefer that the release address still point to http://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.1/multimedia/mpv/

Hope this helps. Thought it might be good to provide a simple way for Slackware users to test current mpv / ffmpeg development and still be able to track it with package management. I may also change the installed name to reflect so that release and bleeding edge can be installed simultaneously. That won't change the repo address, though

Thank you

Arch Linux has mpv in Community repository:

Link to djcj/vapoursynth ppa invalid

This link listed in the Download section of mpv.io under Ubuntu (with Vapoursynth support) is down: https://launchpad.net/%7Edjcj/+archive/ubuntu/vapoursynth

There is to me currently no way of successfully compiling mpv with Vapoursynth support on 18.04 (I tried for hours). I would really appreciate a ppa with a precompiled mpv + vapoursynth to return.

Package missing: MacPorts on OS X

mpv is also available on OS X via MacPorts:

https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/multimedia/mpv/Portfile

The package isn't kept very up-to-date (v0.5.0 as of writing), but works. In fact, it is kept fairly up-to-date (currently v0.6.0). It just happened that I haven't updated my ports for a few days.

An other repo to install MPV on Ubuntu

I think we should add this repo for Ubuntu on the installation page :

https://launchpad.net/~djcj/+archive/ubuntu/vapoursynth

I use it for months, it works great and it's always up to date. Also it allow you to install MPV with VapourSynth compatibility and, if you want it, to install VapourSynth too.

Thank you.

F-droid package?
I don't use google play store and I would love to be able to install MPV from f-droid repositories. It's my favorite media player on desktop.
