Description

mpv is a fork of mplayer2 and MPlayer. Its option parser was improved to behave more like other CLI programs, and many option names and semantics were reworked to make them more intuitive and memorable. Instead of default GUI it provides a small controller interface that is triggered by mouse movement. OpenGL video output is capable of many features loved by videophiles, such as video scaling with popular high quality algorithms, color management, and more, as well as of hardware decoding using VDPAU and VAAPI.
