Homebrew RELEASE pPlay: switch video player

[docgold]

Me neither. Probably a joke. But I'm sure he will shedd light into dark :-)

Might be time to consider a fresh thread for your own new player? Always good to see new stuff like this in the works anyway

 

[nWo]

dont waste your time lol

What is this?? What are you talking about?

If you are not going to elaborate, don't come to throw shit.

I know tegra soc can do up to 4k hevc hw decoding, has opengl 4.5 support, but at the moment none of this can be accessed using libnx. On linux is possible using nvidia closed source driver but also on linux cant be accessed using all open source stuff,
As far as i know with libnx we have access to opengl 4.3 (thanks to libnx guys) and no other hw stuffs.
I think it was a joke. But if hw decoding will come up for sure i will implement it within ffmpeg i am using.
A separate thread for my project will be opened when i am closer to the first release, probably this weekend if no major issue found

The chroma of HW decoded one is wrong, too much red (if was hw decoded) i belive hw decoder has much better color fidelity.

Probably my last post on this thread.
I really loved pPlay and i have much fun on forking it and make it works on last FW.
As said before i dont make any more fork release (just bugfixes if asked) to use my limitied free time on nxmp.

The first nxmp release will have this features:

• ImgGui based interface (is so fast)
• Local File Browse
• Network File Browse (HTTP and FTP) form multiple sources (yes you can add as many server you want)
• Enigma2 Support (without epg in this initial release)
• 60 fps playback support (if file is 60 fps encoded)
• H265 1080p support (only with default cpu/gpu Hz settings) nearly at CPU peak but works

Planned as future features:

• UPnP (needs works but can be done)
• HW Decoding (as far as the libnx guys give this feature)
• Stats Meter (CPU/GPU/MEM) just done but not in the first release
• User button remapping
• Any other crazy idea (i am a bit crazy)

Hope you all enjoy my work, free time is limited but your support is important to keep working on it

No, it makes sense actually. This is a 4k release in the bt.2020 colorspace which many hardware decoders don't support (see the note here: https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#options-hwdec).

Yes you are right!

vdpau always does RGB conversion in hardware, which does not support newer colorspaces like BT.2020 correctly. However, vdpau doesn't support 10 bit or HDR encodings, so these limitations are unlikely to be relevant.

Thanks for your great job, you help & helped many people here.

We ask you to fix pPlay fork5 to work with Homebrew menu loader.
We also ask you to make nxmp to work with Homebrew menu loader too.

You helped a lot for our 4 kids, they love your work. Thank you very much.

Just a "news".
Tegra X1 has now (two weeks ago) NVDEC on linux (mpeg2 and h264 only for now) using open source code.
So an HW Decoder implementation on libnx will be possibile (not simple but possible) by libnx guys.

Sounds amazing! The only suggestion I have is USB drive support using libusbhsfs: https://gbatemp.net/threads/libusbh...ost-filesystem-mounter-static-library.577687/

 

[proconsule54]

Yes it will, but i have problems to debug it since i dont have the dock. So it will be a bit experimental implementation

Thank you for your outstanding work!

Is there any chance you can add SMB/Samba support in the future?

Not sure if is possible or there is some limitation on libnx side, if is possible i'll add for sure

 

[docgold]

It's weekend we need something to test

 

[proconsule54]

Dev Update:
All stuff are working (local/http/ftp/enigma2)
I am cleaning up all and making small fixes. Tomorrow i think a beta release will come

@tataniko NXMP Tested and also working with this

 

[enderer]

you are the man! i'm so happy that pplay works on latest fw. this was the only reason i was considering a downgrade.

can you please add an option to auto-play next title in the folder?

I am working on another player, take a look at

Any magical MPV config for better performance ?
