#769 Fullscreen doesn't work with Wayland/MPV
smplayer 16.8.0, mpv 0.19.0, Ubuntu 16.04 amd64, GNOME 3.20.
Video play with MPV on Wayland is fine for the most part, but the video does not appear inside the smplayer window, and there seems to be no way to switch to fullscreen. Video driver = wayland.
Everything seems to work fine with a standard X11 session.
Seems to be an mpv bug, commit is here https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/3123 but not merged yet.
Got there from https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/2991
I also cant get smplayer+mpv to work properly with wayland on KDE. When using the wayland backend the video appears outside the smplayer window. This is with smplayer 17.10.0 and mpv 0.27.0.
