I'm currently trying to use this inside a GTK+ 3 window on X11, but I chose the OpenGL approach because I want it to work on Wayland as well. This means that to embed it I need to use vo=libmpv, which works fine, although I'm having a hard time making vaapi work for hardware decoding. For reference, I'm doing a mix of your gist example and https://github.com/trin94/python-mpv-gtk4.
Digging around libmpv and OpenGL, I found https://www.ccoderun.ca/programming/doxygen/mpv/structmpv__opengl__init__params.html, which says it is fully supported, but needs to be set up. So I digged more and I found mpvqt (used by Haruna) and celluloid which seem to do this. The problem is that they are in C++ and C respectively and I'm not sure how to translate it to Python.
I kinda figured that I need to pass either "x11_display=" or "wl_display=" to MpvRenderContext() (mainly because it doesn't complain about them, to be honest), but then I'm not sure what the "display" argument should be. Trying to copy Celluloid for GTK, I arrived at something like
display = GdkDisplay.get_default()
x11_display = display.get_xdisplay()
but of course I can't just pass that and I'm not so versed in C to really understand what's going on (is it expecting a pointer?). Do you think you can help me out?
