mpv-image-viewer VS mpv

How would I use MPV as an image viewer, I have tried this link, but it doesn't seem to work as soon as I open an image file, it plays for like 2 seconds that MPV "exits" the file, possibly I would have to toggle inf loop on all image files, but I don't know how I would do this

Mpv can do most of the things you want. I use it as image viewer and comic reader it's a very powerful and customizable software. The only issue I got with it as image viewer is that the scrolling is not smooth. Here's a GitHub page to start using mpv as image viewer : https://github.com/occivink/mpv-image-viewer

Try mpv https://github.com/occivink/mpv-image-viewer

https://github.com/occivink/mpv-image-viewer https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/7983

Copy https://git.sr.ht/~guidocella/mpv-image-config/tree/master/item/scripts/image-keybindings.lua#L60 or https://github.com/occivink/mpv-image-viewer/blob/master/scripts/image-positioning.lua to a script in the scripts directory within mpv's configuration directory, then use it by binding script-binding drag-to-pan.

For image viewing I either use eye-of-gnome or, since a few weeks, mpv with the following extensions: https://github.com/occivink/mpv-image-viewer

mpv with the gallery view plugin makes for a great video/image previewer

Image viewer: MPV with mpv-image-viewer scripts

https://mpv.io/ has yt-dlp support, if yt-dlp is installed you just need to throw the URL at it and it plays the video (without download).

See https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/9053

I apologise for not following procedure. I am in the middle of building mpv 0.37 from source. Irrespective of the outcome I will document what I had to do in addition to the instructions on mpv.io and if the problem perststs, where it happens and where not with kernel version, mpv version taken from the screen, and the terminal output.

Use MPV. Partticularily shinchiro's builds. Extract the folder where you want its installation directory to be, if you decide to install it. Otherwise, just drag and drop files on top of its window or executable.

Author of ripgrep here.

Like automatic encoding detection and transparently searching UTF-16?

Or simple ways for composing character classes, e.g., `[\pL&&\p{Greek}]` for all codepoints in the Greek script that are letters. Another favorite of mine is `\P{ascii}`, which will search for any codepoint that isn't in the ASCII subset.

Or more sophisticated filtering features that let you automatically respect things like gitignore rules.

Those are all things that ripgrep does that grep does not. So I do not favor this explanation personally.

ripgrep has just about all of the functionality that GNU grep does. I would say the two biggest missing pieces at this point are:

* POSIX locale support. (But this might be a feature[1].)

* Support for "basic" regexes or some equivalent that flips the escaping rules around. i.e., You need to write `\+` to match 1 or more things, where as `+` will just match `+ literally.

Otherwise, ripgrep has unfortunately grown just about as many flags as GNU grep.
