Not to damper the mood but what do you guys think you gain out of this? There's a lot of hype for something I'd imagine most of you would see no practical difference with.

Furthermore, you can enjoy video playback without stutter when there is heavy CPU load in the background and it helps to save battery power on mobile systems (at least it's possible).
ffmpeg 4.0 has glorious new features and optimizations, definitely one of the coolest FOSS projects.

Just run mpv from the terminal. The output makes it pretty obvious if HW decoding is used or not. For AMD just use 'hwdec' or 'hwdec=auto' to have mpv automatically pick the best method. It will probably be 'hwdec=vdpau' unless you are on Wayland, in which case only 'hwdec=vaapi-copy' works. Also, mpv on Wayland needs 'opengl-backend=wayland'.
Here's how my config looks for my AMD system:
hwdec=vaapi-copy
profile=opengl-hq
#opengl-backend=wayland
Last option commented out because I'm currently not using Wayland.

Personally, I kind of like having no window decorations for mpv. Save's some unnecessarily wasted space and looks really clean.
