This is a feature request, if just haven't found the parameter to do this, please just close this issue with a hint
When mpv is skipping from a video to an audio file with the default "--fixed-vo", it should keep the X-Window open, so i can still use the mouse/keybord to control it.
The window disappears and I can't even skip the audio track to get to the next video.
Personally I actually always run mpv as a background process, so there is no way to control it via the console. Others still have to switch tho the workspace and xterm to control it again.
1..an option --window with a default of --window=video and --windoe=always will keep a window with black content open so that osd, inputs and controls can still be used when playing an audio track.
mpv A.Movie-2017/* and don't want the A.Movie-2017/a.movie.nfo file to be shown,Either option would solve my problem, but i think both are a good idea.
--force-window?
read the manpage for 3 hours missed that option, but that was when i was frustrated that the -nosound did not work and audio files where not skipped with --mute or --volume=0
but --forece-window definitely solves my issue.
thx
