Reproduction Steps

If I play any video on my 160Hz monitor, the video just speeds up. If I set my monitor to 60Hz, it becomes even faster.
I can only temporary solve this issue by adding --override-display-fps=640, or opening stats page.

  1. Play any video with --video-sync=display-resample

Expected Behavior

Play normally.

Actual Behavior

Speeds up.

Log File

speed_up.txt

Sample Files

Any video.

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

  • I tested and confirmed that the issue exists with the latest release version or newer.
  • I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
  • I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
  • I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
  • I attached the full, untruncated log file.
  • I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.
