Reproduction steps

Try to reproduce your issue with --no-config first. If it isn't reproducible with --no-config try to first find out which option or script causes your issue.

If the issue is performance-related, try to reproduce it with --no-config --profile=fast, which is designed to work on lower-end mobile devices. Additionally, enable hardware decoding with --hwdec=yes or the Ctrl+h shortcut.

Describe the reproduction steps as precise as possible. It's very likely that the bug you experience wasn't reproduced by the developer because the workflow differs from your own. .\mpv.com --no-config "http://fgqt:[email protected]/1/2.mkv"

Expected behavior

mpv should be able to play links with username and password normally

Actual behavior

Links with user names and passwords sometimes cannot be played, and links that can be played appear to be seek failed. But the link can be played without user password.

@IC0hO hello Chinese, the url you provided is invaid. Have you changed the URL because its JAV link (remember, JAV is anti-national element to CCP as its from Japan) To use pikpak you have to mount pikpak drive using rclone and then play with mpv or get streamable URL from pikpak dashboard, pikpak provides URL for potplayer, you can paste that URL in mpv or copy from your Download Manager like IDM and play in mpv

Of course I will turn off pikpak's webdav function, the above is just an example. The same problem also occurs when using the webdav function of software such as alist directly. Links using user names and passwords cannot be played normally. This problem does not occur in other playback software such as vlc and potplayer. The reason why I want to use the link directly is because I wrote a plugin that can directly browse webdav files in mpv.

I speculate that it is a problem with ffmpeg, because I have the same problem with ffplay, and seek failed appears.

Okay but use the uosc context menu or https://github.com/tsl0922/mpv-menu-plugin for your script
