It shares some features with the former projects while introducing many more. It supports a wide variety of video file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types. -optional: docutils, jack-audio-connection-kit, libbluray, libdvdnav, - libfdk-aac, libuchardet, lOpenAL, lua, mujs, oss, rubberband, - SDL2, wayland, youtube-dl +This SlackBuild provides support for most useful optional features. +Some other optional features may be enabled by having the relevant +packages installed; they will be autodetected at build time. +These include: + jack, libuchardet, oss, rubberband, cudatoolkit, nv-codec-headers -If docutils is not installed, the man pages will not be built/installed. -This is the reason I have included docutils in both the `required` and -`optional` lists. If you don't consider the man pages required, then the -docutils package is optional, too. Building the man pages is -recommended. +Please note that CUDA based hardware acceleration requires mpv to be +built with both the cudatoolkit and nv-codec-headers packages installed. -If lua is not installed, much functionality will be lost. This is the -reason I have included lua in both the `required` and `optional` lists. -If you don't consider the functionality lua gives required, then the -lua package is optional, too. Building with lua support is recommended. +Since Pipewire is not configured as the default in Slackware, +its use is disabled in this SlackBuild. To enable Pipewire, run the +SlackBuild with the USE_PIPEWIRE environment variable set e.g. + USE_PIPEWIRE=yes sh mpv.SlackBuild -Dependencies are autodetected. Some optional dependencies are disabled -by default and may be enabled (see BUILD_OPTS). Optional dependencies -that are enabled by default may be disabled (see BUILD_OPTS). +Most dependencies are autodetected.
