Any solution to this? :( - I'm using this command:

DISPLAY=:0 mpv --vo=vdpau --hwdec=vdpau --hwdec-codecs=all --no-audio --no-cache --cache=no --cache-default=no --framedrop=vo --speed=1 --rtsp-transport=udp --no-config --fs rtsp://127.0.0.1:10120/proxyStream

From time to time it stops playback.

I would love to hear something about this as well. Have been scratching my head for a while, as there seems to be no documentation describing this particular issue, and the issues here that could be related has comment that "Reconnect logic already exists", but no pointer as to how to activate or where to find information. (I would recon in docs, but nothing obvious about reconnecting on docs)

I have the same behaviour when I play via rtsp stream, the mpv process falls after a while Linux y-455 5.4.0-97-generic #110-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 13 18:22:13 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

In the docs for --network-timeout it suggests to use --demuxer-lavf-o but has no information on what specific option should be set. Randomly trying timeout=10 it says Unable to open RTSP for listening, avformat_open_input() failed.
