Try 'opengl', 'opengl-old'... But 'xv' should be just as good. Maybe there's some filter (deblocking/deringing/denoise) active with one but not with 'xv'. And I've IIRC used plain 'x11' (or was it 'xv'?) for a very long time. Try benchmarking yourself a bit, after you've found a setting where

You could test different video output drivers and also hardware decoding. If you use deinterlace you can also try to tune it's values. This my mpv config file: vo=vdpau:deint=-3,opengl-hq:scale=spline36,xv hwdec=vdpau audio-device='alsa/iec958:CARD=SB,DEV=0' audio-channels=auto P.S.: Sorry

Hello everyone. Mpv has horizontal screen tearing(not very serious though) while playing video while mplayer does not. I have tried some configs which I found on the net but nothing removes this issue. Mpv docs even says that tearing problems are probably not related to software but driver
