MPV Player Win64 Build

Installation

Grab and extract the All-in-One archive from https://github.com/nyfair/mpv-win64/releases
You can also manually install these pacman-based packages if you are using MSYS2
All my builds are portable and compiled with VapourSynth support, these plugins will have no effect if MPV can't find python environment

Main project site:

TODO ???

Build FFmpeg with x264/x265/rav1e/SVT-AV1/VVenC for video encoding

I prefer to directly use these utilities

Build FFmpeg with libfdk_aac for high quality AAC audio encoding

Yes, Fraunhofer AAC produce better aac than FFmpeg native, but it is still not in the top tier. I recommend you to use xHE-AAC or Apple AAC instead

Build libass with fontconfig for POSIX-like system font configuration

Fontconfig sucks on windows, and... do you really want to learn it?

Build FFmpeg with dav1d for av1 decoding

Today all public av1 videos are just demos. I suggest you to try vvc for the purpose of testing
ffmpeg has built-in av1 & vvc decoder now
