ncmpcpp-mpv

uses mpv to display ablum art inside of ncmpcpp taking advantage of your window manager's window rules to place the mpv window to the desired location.

purpose

use mpv to display album art regardless of using X11 or wayland insted of ueberzug which only supports X11, with a caveat being 2 windows instead of 1 which is less ideal. this is for personal my personal use after not being able to get album art while using sway.

disadvantages

  • uses 2 windows instead of one
  • implementation is hacky
  • won't resize based on window size

TODO

  • improve implementation
  • add example window rules for some window managers
  • use mpv --geometry instead of relying window rules
