'script-opts = osc-vidscale=no' and/or 'osd-scale-by-window = no' can delay startup up to 7 sec

Describe the bug

script-opts = osc-vidscale=no

and/or

osd-scale-by-window = no

can delay startup of up to 7-10 seconds when launched with a file to play as argument. For some reason it does not happen every time. For me roughly every second launch. Cannot reproduce in vanilla MPV.

mpv.net waits getting the video size from mpv, before showing the Window, which does not happen with these settings.

There is a conf option Screen > start-threshold in the conf editor, which you can set to 0 to disable the waiting.

It has the downside that the window might resize and the original osc logo is visible, the logo issue will soon be fixed.

I hope that solves it.

You are very welcome.

I realized now it can be easily detected, so I made it automatic.
