Hi
I have a Win11 HTPC with an i5 10600h CPU, a JBOD with 4 discs (over USB 3.2) which contain the movies and I have Jellyfin Server and Jellyfin Media Player 1.12 installed.
I use it on a 1080p 50inch TV with a remote. After some tuning I got to video to run smoothly no stutter. I used Gemini and Chatgpt to solve my problem, took a while but I got there.
One thing that came up was to show a video info box that shows live data like dropped frames etc. I never got that to work. No keyboard shortcuts work, input.conf does not work, switching from
fullscreen to windowed and then pressing buttons also doesnt show the info window.
In the mpv settings I tried
term-osd-bar=yes
osd-level=3
but this only shows time progress of the video, not further details.
So my question, how can I show the live info window of a video (dropped frames, bitrate, ...) ?
Just for others to try, here are my mpv settings which got me a really smooth playback:
thanks
regards
