mpv-Ciallo

Project Overview

mpv-Ciallo is a personally maintained mpv configuration you can use by replacing mpv's portable_config directory, or by downloading the packaged bundle from Releases. On top of stock mpv it integrates Bilibili video playback with danmaku, local-video danmaku loading, and Anime4K real-time upscaling. The aim is to set up common playback enhancements in one go.

Grab the bundle, swap the config, and danmaku plus upscaling are ready at once.

Key Features

• Bilibili playback: drop or paste a Bilibili link to play it and fetch danmaku automatically
• Local danmaku: open the danmaku toggle on a local video to load comments
• Anime4K upscaling: built-in Anime4K real-time upscaling with switchable levels
• Bundle distribution: a packaged configuration is provided in Releases for instant use
• Preconfigured: scripts, shaders, and shortcuts are already set up

Target Audience

• Users who watch Bilibili videos in mpv
• Users who want danmaku on local videos
• Users who want danmaku and upscaling in one package

Quick Start

1. Download the bundle from Releases, or clone the repository
2. Replace your existing mpv configuration directory with portable_config
3. Open mpv, drag a Bilibili link into the window or press Ctrl+V to paste and play, and danmaku loads automatically
4. For a local video, turn on the "danmaku toggle" at the bottom to load comments
5. Use Ctrl+1~9 to switch Anime4K levels and `Ctrl+`` to turn it off

Core Advantages

• No setup needed: danmaku and upscaling are already configured, so swapping the directory is enough
• Native Bilibili feel: links play directly and danmaku follows along
• Sharper picture: Anime4K real-time upscaling makes animation look crisper
• Danmaku locally too: local videos can also load danmaku

System Requirements

Item	Requirement
OS	Windows and other platforms that run mpv
Dependency	mpv (bundled in the ready-made package)
Network	Internet needed for online video playback and fetching danmaku

Notes

• Local-video danmaku depends on matching, so obscure titles may come up empty
• Anime4K upscaling places some demand on the GPU
• This is a personal configuration; please follow each video platform's terms of use
