uosc is a Lua script that adds a feature-rich, minimalist proximity-based user interface to the MPV media player. UI elements appear based on cursor proximity and include timeline, menus, track selection, subtitle downloading, and a plugin API for third-party scripts.

Use cases

  • add a modern UI to mpv player
  • hide mpv controls until the mouse is near them
  • download subtitles from Open Subtitles inside mpv
  • build a custom context menu in mpv
  • seek and control playback with the scroll wheel
  • show video thumbnails on the seekbar
  • select audio and subtitle tracks from a searchable menu

When to choose

  • you use mpv and want a polished, minimal on-screen interface
  • you want fine-grained control over when player UI is visible
  • you want menus, subtitle downloading, and thumbnails without switching players

When to avoid

  • you don't use mpv as your media player
  • you prefer mpv's default OSC or a purely keyboard-driven workflow
  • you need a full standalone video player application
