mpv is an open-source media player focused on command line usage, supporting a wide variety of audio and video file formats, as well as subtitle types. Although it does not provide a complete graphical interface, mpv offers a small controller over the video for basic commands during playback. Its scripting capabilities are one of its great differentiators, allowing for advanced customization and automation of various functions.
mpv also stands out for its video output quality, using technologies like OpenGL, Vulkan, and D3D11, offering features such as interpolation, HDR, high-quality video scaling algorithms, and color management. Additionally, it can utilize hardware video decoding across various platforms, increasing efficiency when playing heavy videos. The C API makes it easy to integrate into other software, allowing it to be used as a library. Development of mpv is ongoing, with constant improvements in the code and the addition of new features.
