Oops, I meant 18.04.

If SVP is not hooking the mpv socket you can try deleting mpvsocket from /tmp and putting this in the mpv.conf

--input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket


But this is still unreliable so what I originally did, was just opening files by having a short script point to the SVPManager executable with root privileges as default applicationt to open video file types.

I'm sorry, I don't really understand what to do.
I use a laptop so no OC doable.
Also, I don't have any files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and I just have some spare .conf in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/
I am trying to add that string into the .config already there.
Edit:
If in

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

I make a file

20-radeon.conf

with inside of it

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Radeon"
    Driver "radeon"
    Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
EndSection 

the PC does not login (black screen and 2 strings of error), not even in rescue mode, so I must use the live to delete it...

The djcj repo requires >=16.04 or upwards, so xenial, artful or bionic. What version of Ubuntu is your Zorin OS based on? That could explain why the package can't be found.

As for mpv, yes there is a GUI. Simply go to your start menu and click mpv under Sound/Video or wherever it is listed in your case.
You can also open a gui instance of mpv from the terminal via this option. 

--profile=pseudo-gui

mpv.conf is only generated after you run mpv. Just enter "mpv" in the terminal and press enter.
After that you'll find it in /.config/mpv/mpv.conf

I forgot to say I actually use the latest Kubuntu 18.04 LTS version. (nothing changes though)
Still it does not see the mpv playback, and I'm full of tearing. (The OS itself is a tearing mess though, I don't know if it impacts in some way)

So it still can't find the libass5 package.
The problem is mpv doesn't have any GUI, and I don't have a mpv.conf in /home/user/.config/mpv/ (altough I've tried now creating it by myself).
And.. I have an i5 + an AMD gpu, nothing by Nvidia.

Try to read https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:Linux, all the answers you need are there.

When I do

sudo apt-get install mpv libass5

It says "Unable to find package libass5

Also, I can't figure out this:

(recommended) Proprietary video drivers including OpenCL ICD

I have a laptop with 15 sandy bridge and an AMD HD7000 serie.

Also..

add --input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket to mpv args (or config file) and SVP should find it

what is it? How can I do it?

I have had that same error on Ubuntu.
That's a qt error, make sure you install the packages listed on the SVP page.

sudo apt-get install libqt5concurrent5 libqt5svg5 libqt5qml5

Thank you, it did it.

Though  for some reasons the program doesn't work. I tried to click "do frame rate conversion", then "Open file via MPV", but it still says "No active playback". Also for a mistake I made multiple profiles, and the "delete profile" icon does not do anything.
I'd like to use this software with SMPlayer, which I did set to use /usr/bin/mpv, because I'm full of screen tearing (other than the low annoying fps).

Hi there, I actually use Zorin OS (ubuntu based I think, I'm pretty much a new entry), and the installation fails.
Here the code:

Errore durante il processo di installazione (core)
Execution failed (Unexpected exit code: 127): "/home/myname/SVP 4/SVPManager -main -quit"
