In this case to discover the root cause of the problems we need to be able to reproduce the failure. We either need a small video file that exhibits the...

The computer industry works hard to hide a massive amount of complexity from users. For certain types of problems we must pull back the curtain and dig into complex code....

Confirm the name and value do not contain any leading or trailing blank spaces. They also must not contain `--` or `=`. That syntax is only needed when invoking mpv...

Do you still see those same warning messages in the log about probesize? Same number of them?

The documentation for probesize warns that increasing the value can cause latency, so probably should try some smaller values to find the minimum increase that causes the warnings to go...

That looks like `iina.log` not `mpv.log`, and from before the change to raise the probe size. In the IINA log directory there are two log files. The mpv log file...

I see some log messages I need to investigate in the mpv log. I've run out of time today. Another thing you can try is to disable hardware decoding. See...
