mpv is a movie player based on MPlayer and mplayer2. It supports a wide variety of video file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types.
These packages include support for the --sub-fonts-dir
option,
making it possible to load subtitle fonts from a specific directory. (Coupled with my own
sub-fonts-dir-auto.lua
mpv plugin, this will automatically use any
Fonts
directory alongside the currently playing file.)
(Reminder: Make sure you have installed the fbriere-archive-keyring package beforehand!)
Download the .sources
file below corresponding to your current
release, place it in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
directory,
and run apt update
.

) will automatically perform all of the above:apt-get -y install curl lsb-release && (cd "$(mktemp -d)" && dpkg -i $(curl -# -f -w '%{filename_effective}' -O https://www.fbriere.net/debian/fbriere-archive-keyring.deb)) && (cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d && curl -# -f -O https://www.fbriere.net/debian/sources/$(lsb_release -cs)/fbriere_mpv.sources) && apt-get update
To give these packages precedence over the official ones in Debian/Ubuntu
(to prevent any "upgrade" to a more-recent-but-unpatched version), it is
recommended that you install the fbriere-archive-pin-mpv
package
also provided by this component.
