This looks like an issue that the script didn't load. There are multiple ways to getting started, please refer to the mpv.io/manual. And if after following the manual there are still issues, then try seeking support from mpv main repository.
Just incase someone stumbles upon this in a search, the solution was to uninstall the snap package from software manager, and install mpv using the apt package repository. (sudo apt install mpv
)
This also solves issues with mpv failing to read amdgpu ids and thus hardware acceleration as well.
So the default snap package for mpv in Ubuntu 24.04 software center is total crap and should never be installed or used by anyone.
As per install instructions, I have placed the SimpleHistory.lua file in
/home/znote/.config/mpv/scripts
and/home/znote/.config/mpv/script-opts
. When I run a video file in MPV and press h (default keybinding to open history) I get this message:I have a feeling Im missing a presumed obvious install instruction "how to activate default key bindings". Or "how to autoload scripts", but alas. Perhaps someone can enlighten me?
