(Default: 1) +``--vulkan-async-transfer`` + Enables the use of async transfer queues on supported vulkan devices. Using + them allows transfer operations like texture uploads and blits to happen + concurrently with the actual rendering, thus improving overall throughput + and power consumption. Enabled by default, and should be relatively safe. + +``--vulkan-async-compute`` + Enables the use of async compute queues on supported vulkan devices. Using + this, in theory, allows out-of-order scheduling of compute shaders with + graphics shaders, thus enabling the hardware to do more effective work while + waiting for pipeline bubbles and memory operations. Not beneficial on all + GPUs. It's worth noting that if async compute is enabled, and the device + supports more compute queues than graphics queues (bound by the restrictions + set by ``--vulkan-queue-count``), mpv will internally try and prefer the + use of compute shaders over fragment shaders wherever possible. Not enabled + by default, since it seems to cause issues with some drivers. + ``--d3d11-warp=<yes|no|auto>`` Use WARP (Windows Advanced Rasterization Platform) with the D3D11 GPU backend (default: auto).
