pywal-mpv-modernx

An MPV OSC script based on modernx that uses the pywal colors as its scheme.

Installation

Warning

I have not tested this on windows and macos, also on windows pywal does not have specific way to be installed other than pip itself. Which means pywal's cache folder path is still not known.

• On windows
  Locate your MPV folder. It is typically located at \%APPDATA%\mpv\, then copy the contents in it.

• On Linux Locate the $HOME/.config and put the contents of this file there and install Material-Design-Iconic-Font.ttf my copying it in the $HOME/.fonts/ or if you have git installed then:

  git clone https://github.com/aKqir24/pywal-mpv-modernx.git $HOME/.config/
  ln -sf ~/.config/mpv/Material-Design-Iconic-Font.ttf $HOME/.fonts/

• Extras
  To enable thumbnails in timeline, install thumbfast. No other step necessary. And use the thumbfast-support-dev branch to support thumbfast.

Config

edit osc.conf in "~~/script-opts/" folder, however many options are changed, so refer to the user_opts variable in the script file for details.
