Relation to MPlayer, mplayer2 and mpv

mpv is based on mplayer2, which in turn is based on the original MPlayer (also called mplayer, mplayer-svn, mplayer1). Many changes have been made, a large part of which is incompatible or completely changes how the player behaves. Although there are still many similarities to its ancestors, mpv should generally be treated as a completely different program.

mpv was forked because we wanted to modernize MPlayer. This includes removing cruft (including features which stopped making sense 10 years ago), and of course adding modern features. Such huge and intrusive changes made it infeasible to work directly with MPlayer, which is mostly focused on preservation, so a fork had to be made. (Actually, mpv is based on mplayer2, which already started this process of removing cruft.)

In general, mpv should be considered a completely new program, rather than a MPlayer drop-in replacement.

mpvhq is based on mpv and focuses on videophile quality features and was originally created because of disagreements with the mpv developers, but currently exists more as a testbed for my own personal improvements, that will hopefully all make their way back into mpv.

If you are wondering what's different from mplayer2 and MPlayer, an incomplete list of changes is located on the mpv website.
