I am currently using the mpv media player in Kubuntu 21.04. To rotate the video by keyboard, I edited the ~/.config/mpv/input.conf file and added:

r cycle_values video-rotate 90 180 270 0

Now, whenever I play a video with mpv and press r, the video will be rotated by 90 degrees, as shown in the image below:

rotated video

However, this also changes the aspect ratio after rotating by some degrees.
You can see the default image of this video without any rotation at this time below:

There was no issue when I was using mpv before in elementary OS.
This issue came up when I started using Kubuntu.

How can I solve this problem?

  • Can you [edit] your question and add the contents of your ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf and ~/.config/mpv/input.conf files? – BeastOfCaerbannog Sep 12 '21 at 08:03
  • I just checked that I don't have mpv.conf inside ~/.config/mpv/. I only have input.conf and the content of input.conf is r cycle_values video-rotate 90 180 270 0 – Abhishek Kamal Sep 12 '21 at 09:56
  • I cannot reproduce your problem on Ubuntu 20.04 with GNOME. However, you may take a look at the geometry and autofit-larger options of mpv, that could perhaps help. For exampe, I have added in my mpv.conf the following (in separate lines): geometry=50%:50% and autofit-larger=50%x50%. – BeastOfCaerbannog Sep 12 '21 at 10:31
