MPV 0.32 video player release

Took place open source video player release MPV 0.32, a few years ago offshoot from the project codebase MPlayer2. MPV's focus is on developing new features and ensuring that new features are constantly backported from the MPlayer repositories without concern for maintaining compatibility with MPlayer. MPV Code spreads under the LGPLv2.1+ license, some parts remain under the GPLv2, but the process of migrating to the LGPL is almost complete and the --enable-lgpl option can be used to disable the remaining GPL code.

In the new version:

  • Added support for playback from RAR5 archives;
  • The cocoa-cb output module (macOS) adds support for rendering on a separate GPU and using the pinch gesture to resize the window;
  • In the w32_common module (Windows), buttons for minimizing the window and expanding it to full screen have appeared in the on-screen interface;
  • When using GNOME over wayland, a warning is now displayed if there are problems with the output;
  • Added new command playlist-unshuffle;
  • Added property osd-dimensions.
