In fact, I'm now running mpv without caching ("cache=no") at all and it runs smooth as butter, even for full HD and better. So maybe try disabling the cache altogether? Otherwise I've got no idea as to what might be causing your issue. Never had any problems despite caching issues. Regards Partick signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Interestingly it hangs always at the same point in the video. I played back the video with mpv '' from the commandline and get the same effect. BUT: The output of mpv changes from "playing video" to "buffering" (at this moment the video hangs) and back. I increased the cache and readahead in mpv.conf with no effect (it even hits the same point in the video every time!). If I configure width<1280 it seems to work...but does it really need to be that small? Am I out of luck? Cheers Meino

The format-selection is quite flexible with youtube-dl. I've got the following line in ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf: ''' ytdl-format=bestvideo[ext!=webm,width<=1920]+bestaudio[protocol!=http_dash_segments]/best ''' Something like the following might work for you. ''' ytdl-format=bestvideo[width<=920]+bestaudio/best ''' It will select a format with width less than 920px together with the best audio source, or, if nothing matches this criteria, the best format available.

It doesn't. As long as you have mpv built with +lua it ships with the youtube-dl hook which will run youtube-dl (if installed) on any url passed to mpv, parse the json output and then play the "real" video url. > I woyld like something like: > Click on youtube-url, a window (console) pops up > and starts to watch the video > directly. > > Is it possible somehow? There's probably around a bazillion addons for that. A quick search found [1] [2] [3] [4]. Though binding an alias to `mpv $(xsel -b)' and then executing that after copying a url shouldn't be that hard.

I use Twitter as a selective news feed, only following organisations that are active in my fields of interest, and I get the same effect with HTML-5 moving pictures. I can't watch them so I scroll to where I can't see them. -- Regards Peter

I don’t know if it possible to automatically pop up a console, but you can stream directly from mpv. But their is a youtube-dl hook for this, so you need to emerge it before. alarig@pikachu ~ % mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v\=A_LxJWHnjSI Warning: mpv was compiled against a different version of ffmpeg than the shared library it is linked against.

This was my (painful) workaround the last days. I woyld like something like: Click on youtube-url, a window (console) pops up and starts to watch the video directly. Is it possible somehow?

Re: [gentoo-user] HTML5 player (YouTube) is a pain!...Alternatives?
I've been running the youtube-flash-player Firefox addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-flash-player/ for several months now with decent results. It just reverts YouTube back to the old Flash video player. It's been working well for me. I'm not affiliated with it and I recommend it. -- Marat Original Message Subject: [gentoo-user] HTML5 player (YouTube) is a pain!...Alternatives?

[gentoo-user] HTML5 player (YouTube) is a pain!...Alternatives?
Hi, I get sick of this [CESNORED] HTML5 stuff coming from YouTube! Most of the videos while playayaingnaying arereare stututterutering liiklike helellell. I tested a lot of HTML5 addons to fix that problem and googled around the world but nothing helps. The only thing I found is an iconic sentence, which is true in this case also: "You are not alone...!". Is there any way to feed the stream from youtube direktly into a not blown player like mpv/mplayer or such (I would prefer not to load a complete gui (vlc) with any click again and again.)? Thanks for any help in advance! Cheers Meino PS: For the completeness: I have tried to fix that problem by: Restarting firefox Disabling hardware acceleration Disabling webgl Checking, whether the YouTube-testpage shows "all ok" for HTML5 (it does) Checking various about:config-setting for usefulness De-/Installing various addons, which all promise the heaven on earth
