My MPV Configuration

⚠️ Some scripts may contain small personal modifications.

This repository lists the Lua scripts I use with mpv to enhance playback, usability, and UI.
Most of these scripts are created by other developers — I only use them in my setup and sometimes make small adjustments so they work better for my configuration.

Scripts

• autoloop

Modifications

Some scripts are slightly modified so they work better with my setup.

modernx.lua

I changed the following line to allow the mpv window to automatically resize when the video is rotated.

Original (around line 1514):

mp.set_property_bool("auto-window-resize", false)

Modified:

mp.set_property_bool("auto-window-resize", true)

This ensures the window resizes correctly when using my cycle_video_rotate.lua script.
