MPV 0.35.1 is out this weekend as the latest update to this open-source media player developed as a fork originally from MPlayer/mplayer2.

Back in November brought the MPV 0.35 release with a new PipeWire back-end, Wayland DMA-BUF support, and other features. MPV 0.35.1 is mostly about addressing bugs from that prior release.

MPV 0.35.1 features a few PipeWire audio output fixes, Wayland fixes with improved error/debug reporting, checking for resize/move in touch events, and changing around dispatching/waiting for compositor events.
