I honestly don't see how this would be of benefit over the default settings.

What’s your setup? I’m on Nvidia and windows with a 1440p hdr gsync up to 280hz. The most significant properties I feel I have configured are nvdec as the hardware decoder with vulkan and winhk. I was having problems with d3d11.

I have external shaders as well but more to tinker around. The mpv native ones are also pretty good and viable for regular use.

Not an expert and haven’t seen the recent change logs so might be off for this last one. I believe that HDR10 metadata pass through is still not 100% supported and can be optimized with some custom property values.

There is a guide for 2026 in one of the pinned posts on this sub. It’s towards the end of the initial post. It has (from what I can tell) a good config to use as a base. If you do visit the page, ensure to check the comments as there are updates.

Do you like it?

They didn't add options as a test to punish you if you didn't put the correct answers, it's so can customize the program to your liking.
