New to MPV, I have questions
3 projects | /r/mpv | 6 Aug 2023

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
