How should I use Anime 4k on Mac？

[GamWa]

I can't search anything about this.
My device is a Mac mini with M1.
The player I am using is VLC, because it can use SPV to increase the picture to 60 frames. IINA cannot.
Can someone teach me how to use it? thank you very much.

Please read Usage Instructions here https://github.com/bloc97/Anime4K/blob/master/GLSL_Instructions.md
The installation step should be quite similar to Linux.
Btw, mpv also able to use SPV.

BTW, IINA can do that too. Follow the svp's ins https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:IINA or post the thread in svp forum.

The command line support for iina is here. In Preferences -> Advanced -> Additional mpv options:
If you want the GUI manager...
I think the only way is to post the feature request in IINA repo.

I am using Anime4k on my mac mini m1 for months and it works awesome, I would advice that you should use mpv for this, and just followed the guide that is for linux and made changes to work for my mac, I can help you if you want, you can contact me on Matrix :- @nitchi:matrix.org

@theNitchi-zz can you share your mpv.conf or init.conf ? I'm actually wondering performance of m1's built in gpu with high quality shaders@4k external tv/monitor. for example GeForce RTX 3050_mobile@4k60hz cant handle this config:

High quality video rendering for fast computer.

profile=gpu-hq
deband=no
alang = 'jpn,jp,eng,en'
slang = 'eng,en,enUS'
glsl-shaders="/shaders/Anime4K_Clamp_Highlights.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_Restore_CNN_VL.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_Upscale_CNN_x2_VL.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_AutoDownscalePre_x2.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_AutoDownscalePre_x4.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_Upscale_CNN_x2_M.glsl"

But 3060 TI silky smooth with same setup.

You can put that config in a block surrounded by ``` to avoid the formatting.

profile=gpu-hq
deband=no
alang = 'jpn,jp,eng,en'
slang = 'eng,en,enUS'
glsl-shaders="~~/shaders/Anime4K_Clamp_Highlights.glsl;/shaders/Anime4K_Restore_CNN_VL.glsl;~~/shaders/Anime4K_Upscale_CNN_x2_VL.glsl;~~/shaders/Anime4K_AutoDownscalePre_x2.glsl;~~/shaders/Anime4K_AutoDownscalePre_x4.glsl;~~/shaders/Anime4K_Upscale_CNN_x2_M.glsl"
