Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported command with the two images under Hyprland and inspect /tmp/mpv.log alongside the linked screenshots. Trace the window-size update path for --auto-window-resize when the second image is loaded; done means the window resizes to fit the second image without regressing other window managers.
