Script for advanced playback : adjust refresh, postprocessing...

[Deshi]

Hi lanzorg,

It's been a while since I've made some test on my Linux config ;)

I've made a few research some time ago about avisynth but couldn't find how to chain that properly.

As far as AvxSynth is concerned, thanks to you I've just discovered that :thanks:

For now the project is far from usable in my opinion : just video no audio output...
And I still have to find a way to link or chain all that together, my only experience with avisynth is just a few scprits used in mpchc on Win...
So, more digging to come !

Hi everyone, it's been a while !

I've encountered a problem with a small system which obviously needed hardware decoding for 720/1080p content.

Due to the limitation of using -vo vdpau with -vc ff*vdpau, I understand that no video filter can be used since MPlayer
never gets uncompressed video data.

Before going to some tiresome testing I'd like to have some opinions about the possibility of finding a compromise here.

Will the issue be the same with -vo vaapi, gl or xv ?
For example, will these settings work ?
mplayer -vo gl -va vaapi -vf gradfun file.x264.mkv
or
mplayer -vo vaapi -vc ffh264vdpau -vf gradfun file.x264.mkv
or another combination ?

It seems that VLC is capable of that because it does decoding in GPU at the decoding stage only and then gets the data back to the CPU. Meaning you can do filtering or fix any video output after that.
But obviously it will take extra ressources and maybe you'll have no more ressources available to put in filtering anyway...

Well, if someone has an idea... :rolleyes:
