Reproduction Steps
It causes unstable refresh rate in adaptive sync mode. There are 5 situations that I have tested.
vo=gpu+no hwdec+target-colorspace-hint=yes= stable.vo=gpu-next+no hwdec+target-colorspace-hint=yes= unstable.vo=gpu-next+hwdec=vaapi+target-colorspace-hint=yes= stable.vo=gpu-next+hwdec=vulkan+gpu-context=waylandvk+target-colorspace-hint=yes= unstablevo=gpu-next+no hwdec+gpu-context=waylandvk+target-colorspace-hint=yes= stable
Expected Behavior
No matter gpu-next or hwdec=vulkan, the refresh rate should be as stable as default.
Actual Behavior
They causes issue in adaptive sync mode.
Log File
- vo=gpu.log

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:
- I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
- I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
- I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of
--log-file=output.txt. - I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
- I attached the full, untruncated log file.
- I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the five listed configurations on the reported Linux, AMD, Mesa, and KWin setup, then compare the attached logs for vo=gpu, gpu-next, VAAPI, Vulkan, and Wayland Vulkan. Done means adaptive-sync refresh remains stable with gpu-next and hwdec=vulkan while preserving the stable cases.
