Can I use this project with MPV? #30

Hi, I wanted to ask if this can be used with mpv (Command line video player) for video playback (HDR to SDR tone-mapping)?

Thank you :)

mpv already provides really good HDR to SDR tone mapping capabilities. I have used them in the past when I didn't have an HDR display yet.

My shaders are not meant to achieve such a result and technically can't do it either, since they expect an actual HDR output and are meant to only output HDR.

Oh okay I understand. Do you remember your tone mapping settings? I mess around with all settings but everything feels off ^^'

EndlesslyFlowering commented 1 week ago

the last I used was this iirc:

tone-mapping=bt.2390
tone-mapping-max-boost=10

I also recommned: bt.2446a or spline for tone mapping. And these settings for experimentation:

These sertings basically all need vo=gpu-next. Also see the manual ( https://mpv.io/manual/master/#options-tone-mapping-param ) for how they work.

Thank you I will try them out I started with 2094-10 then reinhard then 2446c and now I tinker with a custom 2094-10 back again ^^'
