yes after using mpvpaper for a bit today I woudn’t recommend. it ramps up ram and cpu usage on each loop and completely chews through the battery on a laptop.
Thanks for the follow-up & for sharing your experience. I suppose this kinda thing highlights one of the quiet strengths of the X11 approach… Simple tools like
xwinwrap
paired withmpv
tend to be more lightweight and predictable, especially when you just want a looping video without the overhead. There’s something to be said for minimal scripts doing exactly what you need with no surprises…
