I am always scared of accidently deleting files of my HDD when browsing with the NXMP and marking stuff. That is the reason I am never using this feature. We definately need a manual soon

The red buttom clear playlist is only a in memory playlist within nxmp NO FILES WILL BE IN WRITE MODE except for nxmp stuff,config,db. Dont worry

Also MPEG2Video VOB at abusrd resolution (for mpeg2) is working

Excellent. As always, a masterful work!

The only bug I saw was the battery but it is fixed the way you told me. Willing to keep making tests anytime!!!

proconsule54 · Sep 13, 2023

The new progressbar now show the cache status (the grey area) and the white is still the actual position
this is useful for network streaming

And a nice changes for all the nostalgic of the great PPlay (that insipired me A LOT thanks @cpasjuste for bring the first video light on the scene)

The mini player while browsing (instead of the background video.
Hope you like this!
All these will be on 0.8.0 that is in testing right now.
If someone want to test it PM me.

Can NXMP switch the output refreshrate to be in snyc with the video refreshrate?
Like for example if my video runs at 24hz, does the switch output 24hz over HDMI, so the TV sets itself to 24hz?

Update new version few minutes ago.

NXMP is an open-source Nintendo Switch media player based on MPV and FFMPEG, supporting a wide range of media file formats and codecs.
NXMP is coded by @proconsule54 and @darkxex

It support HTTP,FTP,SFTP,Samba,NFS streaming and it also support Enigma2 decoders. Starting from 0.7.0 Version it features HW Decoding for H264,HEVC,VP8,MPEG2 up to 4K HDR@30fps

NXMP it's on early versions and active dev state so expect any kind of bugs, anyways it's fully functional and tested before every release

Project repository|Stable Build|Nightly Build
Stable: v0.7.0| Nightly: v0.7.0 rev 1

Features:

HW Decoding (since v0.7.0) for (H264,HEVC,VP8,MPEG2)

Extense support of media file formats and codecs, including audio too as well

Touch and controller support, control the MP as you want

Video deinterlace support

Advanced image settings, configure the brightness and color options, change aspect ratio and rotate the screen

Custom subtitles, you can configure options like color, text size and position to your preferences

Full sound EQ, allow adjust the sound equalizer to your preferences, you can define presets too

Chapters navigator with titles support

Selector of Video/Audio/Subtitle tracks during play

Playlist queue, allow to enque desired files on a playlist for non-stop play

Resume play, you can continue your videos where you previusly stop it

Watch status, watched videos are marked as green on file explorer

Shadermania, you can apply any shader compatible with MPV to NXMP

Media sources supported:

Nintendo Switch SD Card

USB drive attached to dock or Switch with USB C adapter (FAT, NTFS and EXT4, up to 32 drives)

HTTP/S files through network

FTP and SFTP files

Samba (SMB) files shared throught network

Enigma2 (allow to view TV channel from satellite decoders compatible with this protocol)

Post here any kind of bug/suggestions.
Enjoy!

Why the hell is this frontpaged again?

proconsule54 · Sep 14, 2023

Never be on the frontpage before

KiiWii · Sep 14, 2023

Is it possible to allow SBS for “labo” 3D videos?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Even if it was before, recently it got an update that makes it first Switch homebrew video player supporting hardware video decoding. Hardware video decoding in Switch homebrew scene was one of last bastions in terms of features you couldn't implement... until now.

Thank you.

Thank you very much for your great work!..

A little silly question: there's no opportunity at all to play any 4K in 60 FPS, even with overclock CPU/GPU or in a low bitrate, maybe?.. Just no chances?!

Yes, thanks to ffmpeg patch made by @averne

HW can do that , if there isn't any bottlenek it will be possible in future

kcajjones · Sep 14, 2023

I couldn't see a clear answer for this so: Does this support bitstreaming? If so, does it bitstream dolby digital (plus) and TrueHD? Dts (HD-ma) and dts:x?

Unfortunately not until nxmp moves from OpenGL to deko3d.
4k60 is just too much work. Think that in 16ms, you have to perform decoding, two full frame copies, color conversion and downscaling. From a quick calculation, that's over 2gpbs of data moving around, and double that if you're playing 10-bit content (which is often the case for 4k HDR). Speaking of, HDR content also needs a heavy compute shader pass to adjust the luminosity of the frame...
The Switch is just not built for that imo.

Though I would like to mention, my (currently unreleased) player can do it. I'm hoping to open source all the parts over the next months, the FFmpeg hwaccel was probably the biggest.

proconsule54 · Sep 14, 2023

Thanks @averne for all the work in the background you have done!
You are right, until i move to deko3d (and have a deko3d backend built into mpv) i think that 4k@60fps is out of question.

Think before you ask. Switch can't output 4K.

Yes but the question isn’t to output 4k@60fps but if it can be processed by nxmp

Many of the late screenshots are 4k hdr files that can be viewed at 720p handled and 1080p docked

May I ask, what is even the point?

proconsule54 · Sep 14, 2023

Maybe you have a samba folder or a usb disk full of hdr 4k, you are at the bathroom and want to play one during the “session” why not been able to play it?

And why not unleash the power of what we have bought?

I started this project 2 years ago because PPlay (huge respect) dont play the tv broadcast from my decoder. So i made it

Now i am working on opening iso file maybe is useless for many but useful for others

So? A 4k encode downscaled to 1080p will always look better than a 1080p encode (assuming similar encoding parameters).
