Source codeIf you want bleeding edge functionality, git versions of FFmpeg or if a package for your platform is unavailable/outdated, you can build mpv from source code. The helper build scripts are recommended for most users since they produce a static build together with FFmpeg, libplacebo and libass. |

Linux packagesDistributions usually package outdated, unmaintained, and unsupported versions of mpv. This is especially true for popular distributions like Debian and Ubuntu. It is recommended to use mpv-build or third-party packages instead. All of these packages are unofficial. |
