MPLAYERX THREADS 1080P

mpv was generally the worst at energy use. Movist is still the clear winner.Ĭonclusion: Movist uses the least energy by a mile.įor future reference, I used the following versions:Įdit: Quicktime was best for handling. I actually have a situation with the DF 1.2 and MplayerX that I am not sure if its normal. Safari Netflix had some huge spikes bringing it on level with VLC, otherwise being on level with MplayerX. Result: Movist and MplayerX used about the same amount of energy, while VLC used about 1,5 times the amount of battery that it uses windowed.

MPLAYERX THREADS 1080P

Movist is still the clear winner.įourth test: fullscreen 1080p mkv file (same) and fullscreen Safari Netflix (New Girl S03E21) - tested from Mission Control Snapshot Multi-Threaded ffmpeg support Change subtitle size while playing(except VOBSub) Remember last played time and resume playing OSD Display. Result: All apps use about 4 times the amount of battery that they use for a 450p file, though MplayerX had some energy usage drops (using 2 times the amount of battery). I can tell them about it but doubt that there is an easy solution from their side. Third test: windowed 1080p mkv file (N'importe Qui) The media-autobuild suite maintainers may not take the burden of maintaining the mplayer/mencoder building process, their main goal is building ffmpeg with a lot of modules, and that works with a current libdav1d. Getting output from MPlayer is now thread-safe (a Queue is now used) Data can now be obtained asynchronously from Player objects (via subscribers/callbacks). Result: All apps use about 1,5 to 2 times the amount of battery that they use windowed. Second test: fullscreen 450p mkv file (same) - tested from Mission Control The problem is that I'm using an SP2SD2 to lunch games and homebrew, but the SD2SP2 don't exist when MPlayer CE was created, it works only with an SD Gecko (as far as I know), thing that I don't have. Result: Movist wins, using half the battery that VLC and MPlayerX need. I know that the original version of the homebrew was for the Wii but I'm using the modified version that allow me to do the same on the gamecube.

Resolution 1440x900 HiDPI.įirst test: windowed 450p mkv file (Simpsons S06E15) I expected VLC to win this comparison, so the results were surprising to me.Ĭonfiguration: Base MacBook 12' (1,1Ghz, 256GB, 8GB ram). -> /System/Library/QuickLook/iCal.qlgenerator (928.4) -xvid -> /Library/QuickLook/Video.qlgenerator (1.9.4. If you wish to install MPlayer from source, try the following: Open YaST Package Manager. For example, adding '-chapter 5' to the command starts the dvd playing at chapter five of the title. To start at a specific chapter use the '-chapter' flag.

I was wondering which of the popular movie apps has the lowest energy usage so I compared these apps in Activity Monitor. To play a DVD with MPlayer: mplayer dvd:// N.
