GUI login for disk decryption (for runit)
I've been planning on encrypting all of my drives but if possible I'd like to have a GUI login screen to decrypt them. I saw that this is possible using plymouth. However, it requires systemd while I'm running artix with runit. Does anyone know of something like plymouth that works with runit?

there's the mpv-mpris plugin which solves this btw
- mpv Gnome support
-
Media Controls Don't Show up in GNOME
afaik mpv doesn't support that itself but you can get most of the media control functionality with the mpv-mpris plugin
-
gnome-mpv/celluloid: please implement a one click gui option to mute e.g. right click on volume button
As I usually run mpv from the CLI or another program and control it via the keyboard, that doesn't sound like the wrapper adds anything I'd personally have a use for. BTW, controlling plain mpv via MPRIS just requires the mpv-mpris plugin to be installed.

Is there a reason why MPRIS is not natively supported?
Use the C plugin instead, which is still being maintained: https://github.com/hoyon/mpv-mpris
