Repeat & Shuffle buttons look like rectangle symbols?

[AlarmedPrize]

I want repeat & shuffle buttons in MPV. I figured out how to do it kind of, but I need some help since parts of it are not working.

At path "~/.config/mpv/script-opts/" I made a new file called "osc.conf", and i added this to it:

custom_button_1_content=🔁
custom_button_1_mbtn_left_command=cycle-values loop-file inf no
custom_button_1_mbtn_right_command=cycle-values loop-playlist inf no

custom_button_2_content=🔀
custom_button_2_mbtn_left_command=playlist-shuffle

custom_button_3_content=⏱
custom_button_3_mbtn_left_command=add speed 1
custom_button_3_mbtn_right_command=set speed 1
custom_button_3_wheel_up_command=add speed 0.25
custom_button_3_wheel_down_command=add speed -0.25

After I did that, I reopened MPV media player. However, I noticed... something off. The newly added buttons to MPV look like rectangles, with the exception being the '⏱' button, which I could see clearly. How do I make it so the 🔁 and 🔀 buttons don't look like rectangle symbols?

I saw a suggestion on a different GitHub MPV post saying that you needed a "a font with monochrome emoji.", but I'm not sure how I would do that in MPV.

1. Colored emoji doesn't work in libass, see support color emoji libass/libass#381
2. You need to use emoji that is available in your font as monochrome glyph. (like your clock is)

Ok, I understand now , but now I have another question. How do I make the repeat & shuffle buttons look bigger? They seem to be tiny.

You would need to edit osc.lua directly for that.

Where is that file located? Or, do I need to create it myself, and if so , where would I create it?

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04.5

It's baked into the binary.

You can download it from https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/player/lua/osc.lua into ~/.config/mpv/scripts and set --osc=no to use your fork instead.
