I need some help from you guys

Hi guys

So I saw this script to use mpv as an image viewer and I got it to work by putting the files in my mpv folder, I changed some settings here and there, but then I realized this changes also affect the video mode which hides the progress bar, volume, etc. So basically I did it wrong , you are suppose to use one of this methods to get it to work properly, and I was trying to get it to work with the second option (create a different directory) that is apparently the easiest and best option but I don't really understand much, I tried some stuff following the instructions, like creating a folder named mvi and putting the scripts there then calling the alias thing in the main config file, but it only broke things.

I was wondering if you guys could guide me through it 😭

methods

I'm gonna put Images of how it runs rn and how the folders look.
