Mpv: cycle-values window scale

[sant527]

I am using the following in my input.conf

F4 cycle_values window-scale 1 1.5 2.0 2.25 2.5 2.75 3.0

the problem i am facing is that it remembers the last scale when i pressed F4

I mean inbetween i pressed any other key and come back and press F4 it does not start from scale 1. It continues from the previous scale i pressed using F4

How to reset it to scale 1 and then start over again progressively.

What i did: I assigned F3 to window-scale 0.5

So i press F3 then F4 then it should start from scale 1. Instead it starts sometimes from 2 (where it was left last time)

Well, this is intentional, I'd say..

But you can use this: cycle <property> [up|down], i.e. use F4 to cycle up and F3 to cycle down.

You can use static values, like

alt+1 set window-scale 0.5
alt+2 set window-scale 1
alt+3 set window-scale 2

or add values:

alt+1 add window-scale -0.25
alt+2 add window-scale +0.25

Those make both more sense than what you seem to be trying to do.

Thank you wiiaboo. It works nicely. Mpv is great

How to use cycle <property> [up|down]

I tried F7 cycle window-scale up and F6 cycle window-scale down

they look working, but i want to cycle at 0.25 window-scale so how to mention that. Now it increases in +1

[wiiaboo]

alt+1 add window-scale -0.25
alt+2 add window-scale +0.25

This does exactly what you want.

Yeah, apparently the value can't be changed with cycle property.

But you could also try cycle_values with _!reverse_, i.e. like this cycle-values ["!reverse"] <property> "<value1>" "<value2>" ...

Or if you really just want to use steps by 0.25, use add window-scale <x>
The benefit of cycle_values is that you can use smaller increments around factor 1.0...

Or what I am currently using:

Ctrl+1 set window-scale 0.25
Ctrl+2 set window-scale 0.5
Ctrl+3 set window-scale 0.75
Ctrl+4 set window-scale 0.8
Ctrl+5 set window-scale 1.0
Ctrl+6 set window-scale 1.25
Ctrl+7 set window-scale 1.5
Ctrl+8 set window-scale 1.75
Ctrl+9 set window-scale 2.0
Ctrl+0 set window-scale 2.25
