Just would like to know how to use my own custom ffmpeg build binaries with mpv player, using windows os.

Is there something in the config file to set or can I replace ffmpeg binaries in a folder?

I'm using portable mpv player and I didn't find any ffmpeg binaries anywhere.

Thanks in advance.

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

So there is no way to take a prebuilt mpv player and use a custom ffmpeg binary either static or shared in windows os

I have to compile mpv and ffmpeg together?

I only wanted to try one particular --vf filter that isn't included in ffmpeg here..

mpv doesn't use the ffmpeg binary, it uses the libav libraries. It's possible if the mpv is built with shared deps I guess

Only if the "custom ffmpeg" they're using does not change the ABI compared to the one mpv is built against.

You're better off just compiling mpv against your custom ffmpeg libs.
