Auto resolution switching possible?

[Seneca2510 1]

So, I have Emby Theater working fine in both 4K up to 60Hz and HD up to 120Hz, auto refresh rate switching doesn't miss a beat - but is it / should it be possible to switch resolutions as well?

 

IIRC, in the "old" MadVR settings, you could specify combinations of both. Is there a similar configuration possible for mpv? Or is it supposed to switch resolution but not doing so, for some reason?

 

The reason is that I'd like to have either:

 

1. An HD UI with extremely smooth animations, and then only switch to 4K for UHD material.

 

2. Alternatively, I'd also settle for a less-smooth 4K UI, but drop down to HD for HD material (I'd rather have my tv upscale HD>4K, mainly to reduce the load on the HTPC).

 

Any ideas?

Just had a quick look at the refreshrate script and it appears that it doesn't take resolution into consideration, only refreshrate.

Thanks! So I'm not missing something and no hidden mpv option I'm overlooking either...

 

Can I put in a feature request?

There might be a way to make profiles to do that, but I have a feeling the refresh rate program and script would override them.

Yes this is a good feature request, thanks !
