As a contributor who implemented the change to use Windows' mpv.exe for video playback with ani-cli under WSL, I wanted to clarify the rationale behind this approach:
Why Use Windows' mpv.exe with ani-cli in WSL:
How to use it:
This solution is designed to optimize the user experience by providing a practical and stable setup for enjoying videos with ani-cli. Your understanding and support in this matter are greatly appreciated.
To revert this change it is enough to remove from ani-cli | *WSL2*
in two places.

Steps To Reproduce

from AUR (I usedyay
