mpv-osc-youtube-ui

An OSC script for mpv that provides a YouTube-like UI, forked from mpv-osc-modern.

Notable changes from mpv-osc-modern

• YouTube-like UI
• More compact layout
• Larger clickable area of buttons
• Hover effect for buttons
• Softer black gradient background
• Fade-in effect on popup
• Shorter duration for fade-in/out
• No deadzone by default (OSC will show up anywhere in the window with mouse movement)
• No window controls when full screen
• Using built-in icons instead of the extra iconic font

Installation

1. To disable the default OSC, add osc=no to your mpv.conf file:

echo 'osc=no' >> ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf

2. Put youtube-ui.lua in your mpv scripts directory:

wget -P ~/.config/mpv/scripts https://github.com/eatsu/mpv-osc-youtube-ui/raw/main/youtube-ui.lua

3. (optional, but recommended) To show the thumbnail tooltip, put thumbfast.lua from thumbfast in your mpv scripts directory:

wget -P ~/.config/mpv/scripts https://github.com/po5/thumbfast/raw/master/thumbfast.lua
