Reproduction Steps
Tap the OSD buttons with a touchscreen, or the menu with a stylus. As the only app in the workspace or in fullscreen (see actual behavior notes).
This is the same without configs, but just for the sake of disclosure, my config is:
profile=fast
hwdec=rkmpp # <-- doesn't actually do anything yet because not enabled in alpine
framedrop=decoder+vo
Expected Behavior
Inputs are equivalent to mouse, or otherwise work reasonably.
Actual Behavior
For touch, it's similar to what is described in #9771: some buttons react visually but never do anything. In the menu (if opened via other means), touching entries moves the selection and touching something else closes the menu, without ever selecting the entry. For pen/stylus controls, the OSD works properly but the menu does not: same as touch except hovering over stuff also changes the visual selection.
What's even more strange is that it seems to sometimes work reliably and as intended when in a layout with another app, although the buttons are too small to be useful in this case. Sometimes because it happened only 3 times and I couldn't reproduce it.
Yes, it works fine with an external mouse.
Log File
Sample Files
No response
I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:
- I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
- I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
- I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of
--log-file=output.txt. - I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
- I attached the full, untruncated log file.
- I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.
