Tone map V-Log to PQ HDR about mpv

[Akemi]

This will utilise Apple's Extended Dynamic Range feature on macOS.

this is completely unrelated to your feature request btw. EDR support can already be utilised by both supported macOS backends.

also aren't you just looking for --target-prim= and --target-trc=?

I tested mpv again with a standard PQ HDR video, and couldn't figure out how to enable EDR.

I am using this config:

autofit-larger=100%x100%

loop-file=inf
--target-prim=bt.2020
--target-trc=pq
--icc-profile-auto
--target-colorspace-hint

--vo-gpu

The video is still tone mapped to SDR. Movist Pro can play the same video in EDR, so the file itself has no issues.

Could you help me with this? Thanks!

• it's vo=gpu (not vo-gpu)
• if you want to use target-colorspace-hint use vo=gpu-next
• if you intended to use libmpv, as in your log, you also have to set the appropriate cocoa-cb-output-csp= option manually (this is only in master for now)
• icc-profile-auto and the target-* are mutually exclusive, so don't set it
• update your mpv to the latest version

I have updated my config as

autofit-larger=100%x100%
loop-file=inf

--target-colorspace-hint

--cocoa-cb-output-csp=bt.2100-pq

vo=gpu-next

When I launch MPV, the "Drop files to play here" window no longer appears. When I open a file using the menu bar, MPV crashes.

I am using the latest build by stolendata, mpv-0.37

[Akemi]

there is no crash. mpv just can't initialise a vo, because you are not using the latest version with all features enabled.

you can try the latest nightly builds at the bottom (Artifacts) here.

Thanks, I used the latest nightly build and tone mapping of V-Log into EDR works now.

The only issue now is that upon closing mpv, the "mpv quit unexpectedly" dialogue pops up.

I am using the following flags

--hwdec=auto-safe

--vf=format=gamma=v-log:colorlevels=full:primaries=v-gamut:sig-peak=10

--target-colorspace-hint
--cocoa-cb-output-csp=bt.2100-pq
vo=gpu-next

Disabling target-colorspace-hint will prevent the "mpv quit unexpectedly" dialogue, but EDR no longer works.

yeah this has been reported already #12666.

if you are suing vo=gpu-next, cocoa-cb-output-csp is not needed. target-colorspace-hint is enough.

i am closing this one then, since the only issue now has already been reported.
