Uwanted mpv behavior.

[jimford-sudo]

I want to 'chew' through about a thousand video clips from a wildlife camera, to catch a certain event.
I've used 'find' with a regex, to narrow down the likely files, and piped the output to mpv (- -print0 | xargs -0 mpv speed=2).

The problem is that the first 2 files show OK in a small window, but subsequent ones greatly exceed the size of the screen.

I'm using a 15 year old laptop. If it's a decoding problem, then why do the first 2 files show OK? - I'm way out of my depth here and could do with a bit of hand holding, please!

Thanks guidocella --auto-window-resize=no did the trick. (I thought it would be more complicated than that!)

To view the files faster I've tried --speed=2 (and other rates), but only get 15fps whatever I do.

mpv --auto-window-resize=no --speed=2

How can I increase the speed?

--hwdec --profile=fast

Generally, options which speed up mpv:

hwdec=auto -> Very important if you do not have activated it until yet. First, try this out

If this does not help:
interpolation=no
scale=bilinear
dscale=bilinear
cscale=bilinear

The scaler are defaulted as lanczos .... and this feature consumes very much gpu-rendering power.

Many thanks for the helpful replies. Jim
