Log File
Sample Files
No response
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
Reproduce the issue with the vf set format=w=2560:h=1440:convert=yes entry point using a 1920x1080 source, then inspect crop.log alongside the expected and actual screenshots. Done means the format filter produces the requested 2560x1440 output without cropping.
