osc=no     # required so that the 2 UIs don't fight each other
border=no  # if you disable window border, uosc will draw
           # its own pretty proximity based window controls

Copy uosc.lua into scripts/ folder.

To configure uosc, create a script-opts/uosc.conf file, or download the one in this repository.

Options

All available options with their default values:

title=no                      # display window title (filename) in no-border mode
progressbar=yes               # show thin discrete progress at the bottom
progressbar_fullscreen=       # defaults to `progressbar`
progressbar_size=4            # progressbar size in pixels
progressbar_size_fullscreen=  # defaults to `progressbar_size`
seekbar_size=40               # seekbar size in pixels
seekbar_size_fullscreen=      # defaults to `seekbar_size`
min_proximity=60              # element<>cursor proximity below which opacity equals 1
max_proximity=120             # element<>cursor proximity above which opacity equals 0
bar_opacity=0.8               # max opacity of progress and seek bars
bar_color_foreground=FFFFFF   # BBGGRR - BLUE GREEN RED hex code
bar_color_background=000000   # BBGGRR - BLUE GREEN RED hex code

Keybindings

By default, uosc doesn't create any keybinds, but provides commands to bind your preferred keys to. To add a keybind, open your input.conf file and add one on a new line.

For example, this will bind the p key to toggle progress bar:

p  script-binding uosc/toggleprogressbar

Commands

Available commands uosc listens on:

`toggleprogressbar`

Toggle the thin discrete progress bar.

Tips

If the UI feels sluggish to you, it's probably because the rendering is chained to video frame rate. Add this to your mpv.conf file to enable interpolation and get a more responsive UI:

interpolation=yes
video-sync=display-resample

Though it does come at the cost of a higher CPU load.
