mpv: possible misconfiguration

Hi,

I'm using mpv a lot and on the latest guix pull it stopped working with

this error message:

klm@pal ~ ? mpv

[ffmpeg/demuxer] ogg: Broken file, keyframe not correctly marked.

(+) Video --vid=1 'Sintel Trailer' (theora 854x480)

(+) Audio --aid=1 (vorbis 2ch 48000Hz)

klm@pal ~ ? readlink $(which mpv)

/gnu/store/3i6dmnksdr4sif66hlgh1g0dxfqwxzsi-mpv-0.35.0/bin/mpv

After some looking around a bit, I found that gpu-contexts have changed:

klm@pal ~ ? mpv -gpu-context help

GPU contexts (APIs):

auto (autodetect)

wayland (opengl)

drm (opengl)

klm@pal ~ ? /gnu/store/2chvq95z20s7xihyayiayiy40fvyqn0g-mpv-0.34.1/bin/mpv

-gpu-context help

GPU contexts (APIs):

auto (autodetect)

wayland (opengl)

x11egl (opengl)

drm (opengl)

I don't know if it's relevant but may help tracking the cause of this

problem down. mpv 0.34.0 works without problems.

I found this recent patch on mpv: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/28457

Is it possible that mpv's default configuration has changed and is now

causing problems for old X11 setups?

I'm in integrated Intel graphics, Linux-Libre 6.0.8-gnu #1 SMP

PREEMPT_DYNAMIC 1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks,

K.

retitle 59279 MPV does not work on X11

merge 59279 59339

thanks

Kristian Lein-Mathisen ???

Yes, that seems to be the case. Thanks for the report!

Kind regards,
