Actions

Settings - Player - Videos - Action.jpg
Play next video automatically
Settings level: Basic
When selected this enables automatic playback of the next file in the list.


Skip steps
Settings level: Standard
See also: Skip steps
Defines the amount of time each press of the Skip button will skip forward or backwards. A (-) will define backwards and no (-) will define forward. You can set multiple times so each press will skip more time in the video. So if, for example you use 10 sec, 30 sec, 60 sec when press the Skip button once it will skip 10 seconds foward, double pressing the Skip button will skip 30 seconds and triple pressing the Skip button will skip 60 seconds.


Skip delay
Settings level: Standard
Defines how much time it takes before the skip step occurs. The range is none (which will cause the skip step to happen immediately) & 250 - 3000ms (milliseconds).


Playback

Settings - Player - Videos - Playback.jpg
Setting Description Level
Adjust display refresh rate Defines when the refresh rate adjustments should take place. Activate to automatically set the refresh rate which is best matched with the video that is playing (default off). This potentially allows for perfectly smooth video reproduction, as video material can be recorded in a variety of frame rates (23.976fps, 24fps, 25fps, 29.97fps, 30 fps, etc.) which need to be properly matched by the refresh rate of the display, in order to be displayed smoothly. Standard
Sync playback to display This setting enables syncing the video to the refresh rate of the monitor. Standard
Minimise black bars Allow video player to try to fit video to screen by ignoring aspect ratio by a certain amount. Advanced
Display 4:3 videos as Determines the zoom level that 4:3 videos are shown on widescreen displays. Advanced


Processing

Settings - Player - Videos - Processing.jpg
Setting Description Level
Render method Controls the method used by the player to process and display the video, (which is called rendering). Advanced
Enable HQ scalers for scaling above Use high quality scalers when upscaling a video by at least this percentage. A value below 5% makes little sense as video is processed with high GPU load without any visible picture quality improvements Advanced
Windows specific settings
Setting Description Level
Allow hardware acceleration DXVA2 Enable VDPAU hardware decoding of video files. Expert
Linux specific settings
Setting Description Level
Allow hardware acceleration - VDPAU Enable VDPAU hardware decoding of video files, mainly used for NVIDIA graphics and in some circumstances AMD graphics Advanced
Prefer VDPAU video mixer Bypassing VDPAU mixer saves resources on low power systems but slightly reduces picture quality Advanced
Allow hardware acceleration - VAAPI Enable VAAPI hardware decoding of video files, mainly used for Intel graphics and in some circumstances AMD graphics. Advanced
Use MPEG-2 VAAPI Enable this option to use hardware acceleration for MPEG-(1/2) codecs. If disabled the CPU will be used instead. Some MPEG-2 videos might have green artifacts. Expert
Use MPEG-4 VAAPI Enable this option to use hardware acceleration for MPEG-4 codec. If disabled the CPU will be used instead. Expert
Use VC-1 VAAPI Enable this option to use hardware acceleration for VC-1 based codecs. If disabled the CPU will be used instead. Especially VC-1 interlaced fails hard on Intel hardware. Expert
Prefer VAAPI render method When enabled, VAAPI render method is preferred and the CPU has less load. If you experience hangs, disable this option. Expert
Mac OS specific settings
Setting Description Level
Allow hardware acceleration - VTBDecoder Enable VTB hardware decoding of video files. Expert


Stereoscopic 3D

File:Settings - Player - Videos - Stereoscopic 3D.jpg
See also: 3D
Setting Description Level
Playback mode of stereoscopic videos Select in which mode stereoscopic 3D videos will be played. [Ask me] Will show a dialogue to select the desired mode for each playback. [Preferred mode] Will use the preferred mode specified in the "system->Video hardware" section of the settings. [Monoscopic/2D] will play the video in mono/2D. [Ignore] Disables any stereoscopic 3D processing and handling Advanced
Disable stereoscopic mode when playback is stopped While enabled, GUI and some TVs will switch back to 2D mode, beween videos in a playlist or when playback ended. While disabled, GUI and TV will stay in stereoscopic 3D mode. For video playlists with mixed stereoscopic 3D and 2D content, then the GUI will also stay in stereoscopic 3D mode even when a non-stereoscopic 2D video is playing. Advanced

Teletext

Setting Description Level
Activate Teletext Enables Teletext when watching a live TV stream. Expert
Scale Teletext to 4:3 When selected scales Teletext to 4:3 ratio. Expert
