Usage Instructions (GLSL / MPV)

If you wish to use another media player, look at their documentation on how to install GLSL shaders and modify the shader accordingly if needed.

  1. Install mpv (Make sure it is v0.31, there is a GLSL bug in v0.32, see #66)
  2. Download the .glsl shader files here
  3. Copy the .glsl files to %AppData%\mpv\shaders for Windows or ~/.config/mpv/shaders for Linux.
  4. If mpv.conf does not exist in %AppData%\mpv\ or ~/.config/mpv, create an empty file and follow these instructions to optimize your configuration.
  5. Add this line to mpv.conf to enable the shaders: glsl-shaders="~~/shaders/Anime4K_Hybrid_v2.0RC2.glsl"
    The file name might vary depending on the version, rename it accordingly.
  6. To verify the installation was correctly done, use the MPV profiler to check if there are a few shaders with the name Anime4K running. To access the profiler, press Shift+I and then 2 on the keyboard's top row.
    This is what you should see (for v2.0RC2):
    Profiler

Unlike HLSL, the GLSL shader can auto-detect the scaling factor and adjust its strength accordingly.
