mpv-conf

My personal mpv configuration is minimal and tailored to my simple use case.

Noteworthy:

• Large cache size: ~1.5GB + ~400MiB
• Hardware decoding disabled: hwdec=no
• All keybinds disabled, except for a few in input.conf
• Matroska ordered chapters disabled: ordered-chapters=no
• watch-later-dir set to ~~/cache/watch_later (folder[s] created manually)
• screenshot-template saves images to the desktop: ~/Desktop/%F-(%P)-%n
• sub-file-paths set with ; separator for Windows
• Default ytdl-format ignores VP9 codec: bv[vcodec!~='vp0?9']+ba/b
• Slideshow auto-profile is system-specific, kept for reference.

Please review the files before using to understand what is included.

Important

This configuration requires mpv v0.39+, as it utilizes features like autocreate-playlist introduced in that version (and some v0.38 nightlies), replacing the autoload.lua script as a native function.
