Hi all

i have a question. searched everywhere and found nothing about.

Is it possible to visualize photos on tty console like we used to on old 
SYSCONS by using zgv or something?

Or watching videos with mpv/mplayer + sdl 2.0/openGL or something?

As long as those packages support DRMKMS and does your GPU, you can to a
degree. I noticed video works for mpv and games/sdl, tho, I cannot get
input working. I tried the Doom 3 port, and watched movies with mpv all
from the vty just a couple of months ago.

To health and anarchy,

hi Alastair

could you please tell us how did you do to make mpv working ?

when i try to run it, i get something like this:

$ mpv --vo=drm video.mp4
 (+) Video --vid=1 (*) (h264 424x240 30.000fps)
 (+) Audio --aid=1 (*) (aac 2ch 44100Hz)
[vo/drm] No primary DRM device could be picked!
[vo/drm] Failed to find a usable DRM primary node!
[vo/drm] Failed to create KMS.
Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (--vo) device.
Video: no video

Exiting... (Errors when loading file)


thats what i should use correct ? --vo=drm ?
