Question - Sync to specific display on Manjaro KDE?

Hi there,

I recently installed Manjaro KDE 18.03 and installed MPV. I have one monitor that is 100Hz, and another that is 60hz.

When I use video-sync=display-resample, if both monitors are enabled, MPV tries to sync to 60Hz on the 100Hz monitor, causing a lot of frame drops and stuttering. When I disable the 60Hz display, MPV plays on the 100Hz totally fine.

Is there a way to force MPV to sync to a specific display, so I can leave both my displays enabled?

Thanks.

Does it matter on which monitor you open mpv instance? Use --screen=<n> to test. https://mpv.io/manual/master/#options-screen

I think this might be more of a Linux problem rather than a MPV problem.
