Playing video in tty without fullscreen #6382

Closed edn9 closed 5 years ago

edn9 commented 5 years ago

mpv version and platform

mpv 0.29.1 Arch Linux, kernel 4.19.8-arch1-1-ARCH bspwm

Reproduction steps

In tty, open a video with: mpv —vo=drm videohere.mp4

Expected behavior

Is there any way to play it without fullscreen? Like in mplayer: mplayer -vo fbdev2 -vf scale=665:384 -geometry 725:0 videohere.mp4 Example: https://i.imgur.com/NjHUtml.jpg Font: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/a6ee0l/tty_playing_youtube_while_coding_without_xorg/

teste

Actual behavior

Video just play in fullscreen, even with --geometry=800x600+500+0, which work fine in xorg, but I want to do it in tty like mplayer do.

I doubt drm allows this kind of concurrent access.

It has been a few years but this is still an issue. OP did not ask about a drm specific solution but the feature in general. Now with some recent developments regarding fbdev, would mpv consider adding it back so that there is feature-parity with mplayer (which mpv was a fork of)?
