Bug Description
Enable hardware video decoding by default.
Upstream doesn't do this, supposedly because the quality is lower. However that concern if justified at all, is only valid for low quality videos. I don't think it's a good enough reason to use orders of magnitude more CPU...
All we need is one line in: /etc/mpv/mpv.conf
hwdec = auto
