• Run script-message osc-idlescreen no or script-message osc-visibility never in console

Expected Behavior

mpv logo disappears

Actual Behavior

OSD message shows that the idlescreen/visibility mode has been successfully changed, but in fact it did not take effect.

Log File

log.txt

Sample Files

No response

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested and confirmed that the issue exists with the latest release version or newer.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

script-message osc-visibility never is this expected to hide logo too? It also doesn't hide logo with audioonlyscreen=yes.

I just found a more serious issue with the osc-visibility script command.

• mpv --no-config --idle --force-window
• script-message osc-visibility never
• drop any image/video file to start playing

mpv logo is still visible during playback
