100% CPU consumption when playing image on all displays

[arational]

When playing any image file using all displays like this:

mpvpaper -o "no-audio --image-display-duration=inf" '*' /path/to/image

It consumes 100% of the chosen CPU core.

I can reliably reproduce this on the current nixos 24.05 build using mpvpaper 1.3.

Very sorry for the late reply, a lot going on in my life right now.

I can't help you if you are using a older version of mpvpaper.
Version 1.3 is OVER 2 YEARS old now, so a lot of changes has happened since then.
So I would suggest you somehow get the latest version of 1.7 and see if the behavior persists.

I'm experiencing the same issue using mpvpaper 1.7. I'm running Sway 1.10 on Arch linux. Kernel is 6.12.4-zen1-1-zen.

$ mpvpaper -o "--loop-file=inf" DP-1 ~/Downloads/video.mp4
