[FEATURE] 'Internal' MPV does not read config files about racecontrol

[robvdpol]

I added a setting where you can specify additional MPV parameters, which will be passed to MPV. This setting will be saved to the Race Control settings file, so you only have to specify it once.

What is the name of this setting? I can add it to the Race Control settings so it's passed as a parameter to MPV.

That would be nice! The option is 'vo' (Video Output) (CLI argument --vo=...)

The available options can be listed by using mpv --vo=help:

Available video outputs:
  libmpv           render API for libmpv
  gpu              Shader-based GPU Renderer
  direct3d         Direct3D 9 Renderer
  sdl              SDL 2.0 Renderer
  null             Null video output
  image            Write video frames to image files
  tct              true-color terminals

The default seems to be 'gpu' (shaders), where 'direct3d' rendering reduces gpu load for me.

By the way, this seems to be a Feature Request instead of the Bug. Unfortunately, it seems that I cannot change the label.

Hmm, this seems not to work (release 2.0.1). Parameters that I put in the 'additional MPV parameters'-box seems not to be picked up by the player. If I for example add '--fs' (full screen). the video still does not open in full screen. The external MPV player does open in fulls screen, but this feature was meant to alter the 'internal' MPV player (with the shortkeys), right?

[robvdpol]

No, this feature is only for the external MPV player. The internal player is based on VLC, not MPV. That also explains your initial issue. I thought you were talking about the external MPV player.
