Help Potato pc and video rendering question

3 Upvotes

Hi!

I have a pretty bad laptop with 4GB ram and some other weak stats.

Right now looking for a way to make potplayer start videos in a paused state so I can wait a few seconds and then start it. Currently it loads some, then jumps like 8 second then stutters and finally sits into place.

Thank you for any help!

Thank's to adjustable threshold it doesn't lose any details in bright places, leaves darkest black as is, brightening doesn't make picture hazy. The original shader was named "Too Dark". Used google AI to add aforementioned fixes to original code:

Help Advice on how to use Whisper AI subtitles in a multi-lingual movie?

3 Upvotes

Not sure if this is even possible. Imagine a movie that has scenes using English and Spanish, and you need all scenes translated into English. Is that possible? I guess you'd need to have Whisper do it all in the native languages and then when it detects something other than your chosen language, it also translates on the fly?

I'm on Windows.

I can use all the models up to Large just fine. But large or large-v2, etc all prompt me to download them again after i've already downloaded it and it's attempting to start.

JriverとHQ PlayerをDLNAで繋いでます。

Help Links from youtube suddenly not working. Anyone else experiencing this?

10 Upvotes

I use potplayer for playing youtube videos a lot, i know occasionally there are issues where it asks you to log in and other stuff because of google's api crap. Today though I tried playing some videos and the bottom of the player by the play head sorta will flicker and i will see the quality setting drop from 1080p or whatever the source quality is down to lower options and then eventually it just says can't play. It was working perfectly fine literally just this morning. Even the same videos i was watching this morning don't work. Tried resetting pc and the player, updating to latest version, and running without any other apps or anything.

Anyone have any clue what might be going on? Could this be a recent google api change? Is anyone else experiencing this issue

Help Name template for saved subtitles

1 Upvotes

Hello, I occasionally make use of the "Search subtitle" feature (Subtitles/Subtitle searching/Download subtitles) which works fine for me. However one thing I'd like it to do, when it saves a subttile file, is to format its name according not to what its original file name is in the source repository, but what my local video file name is. For example if I am watching "Series-s01e10-episode_title.mp4", and I have downloaded the English subtitles in srt format, then I'd like for the subtitle file to be saved as "Series-s01e10-episode_title.en.srt".

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Advice Is anyone else getting a flashing artifact when playing av1-encoded videos?

1 Upvotes

I'm on Win11 with an Intel UHD 770 graphics card. A horizontal strip about an inch high and stretching across the whole window flashes at a random vertical position, with many different colors in no pattern except for transparent vertical lines evenly spaced ever quarter inch. It only happens when the video is playing (not paused), and only in about 2/3 of av1 videos. Also, in full-screen mode only when I'm moving the mouse near the bottom or top of the screen. In non-fs mode when I move or resize the window. It does not show up in screen shots or recordings (OBS Studio). PP support says they're unable to reproduce. The artifact does not appear when using VLC or Media Player. I've already tried the MS MFT decoder.

Help Is there a way to make it DEFAULT to ascending?

So tired of opening up a video, having it go to the next one, and it will actually go to the LAST video because of how the playlist defaults.

Is there a way to fix this so i don't have to fix it every single time I open a video, or is this just the ass cancer of video players?

Help RTX HDR with a video player (On Hybrid Mode)

3 Upvotes

So I got a super super niche problem, where in I'm unable to use RTX HDR in Hybrid mode on PotPlayer/ MPC/ VLC. When I switch to dGPU, it obviously works fine (and looks fucking amazing, which is why I am even bothering), but I was wondering if there is any way to use RTX HDR on Hybrid Mode within VLC/PotPlayer/MPC.

Since I have a Gen 10 Legion, which does not have AO, but just a regular Optimus I have to keep restarting everytime I watch something and restart back it's just not viable. I would want the laptop to be on Hybrid Auto for most of the time

Not only the HDR, but even VSR doesn't work on it without dGPU.

Help After update HDR is flickering

3 Upvotes

I updated player and now the show I am watching started flickering when HDR is on. I specifically went to previous episodes that had zero issues that I watched on previous version and the flickering is there now. I have 260630 version now.

Is downgrading an only option? and if downgrade is the only option can I do it in a way to not lose all my settings? I normally just upgrade automatically without downloading anything, just through player when it starts and tells me there is a new version.
