One can simply check the performance of the mpv snap for debugging or out of curiosity etc. with the following steps.
** (Ensure apt/dnf etc. mpv isnt installed as it will conflict with the snap mpv)
1) Install vainfo (sudo apt install vainfo)
2) Then in terminal, type vainfo , vainfo gives you the list of codecs and backends supported by your device.
For Example - VP8 ,VP9 etc.
3) Go to https:/
device supports.
4) For example, My device supports VP8 but not VP9 so i will go to https:/
there are options for jellyfish 🪼 and big-buck bunny 🐰 , select any one you like upon click you get a drop-down
list of the files in various codecs, i chose VP8, then you will get the video files in various qualities and size,
i selected --> https:/
5) Now in terminal --> mpv https:/
6) The terminal logs and the mpv output are your dog-food, cheers 🎉 , also feel free to report issues. 😉😉
