For Mac when you right click on a folder and choose 'Open in Terminal' it always opens VSCode for me. It used to just open the terminal. To rectify create a workflow in Automator. Now it'll give you 'open in terminal' at the bottom and it actually does what it says. Not sure if this was a VSCode problem or an apple problem.
disable tooltips for apps in Mac OS Dock
if I open up mpv the hover text showing mpv stays there forever until I move the mouse which I don't usually do. This free PrefsEditor app allows modifying file-label for the persistent-apps to blank and problem solved. Modify com.apple.dock file. After making changes in terminal do killall Dock to restart Dock. Last release 2022 but still works just fine on Sonoma 14.5

my mouse if over the mpv icon although mouse pointer isn't shown in screenshot
Now no hover text is over the app icons that are kept in the dock. Only for recent apps there is name of the app text.
edit: ok as soon as you quit an app and re-open it then the label is back if you put nothing..have to fill it with a space for instance but then there's a black buble text box.... so insane......hmmm
tried PListBuddy but cuz it has an array guess it can't be done...think I give up

Almost gave up on slideshow movie stuff. AV1 was using libaom-av1 encoder but it can't glob *.jpg just avif. It was 4 times slower than libx265 or libx264 but 3x smaller though. Then decided use list to concat and most problems solved but half the images whether jpg, webp, avif wouldn't make it into the avif video. Well avif Preview opens it and can flip around images...better than a PDF I suppose. Browsers can open it but not mpv. So just using the container mp4 (or mkv of course) worked.
Just did 11,200+ images was 6h 13m mp4 video 720p and final file size only 415MiB (435MB) which is amazing considering the jpg images were 1024x768 (for the most part and their collective size was 1.35GB. So it's like 3x smaller. Using preset -2 would even be a tad smaller in file size but it's like 5x slower to encode though. So generally not worth it.
The key to all this was putting the duration in the file which is 2 seconds...you could change to 3 seconds and instead of 1/2 put 1/3 or for 4 secs put 1/4.
You could magick convert or mogrify but just using a video filter to scale proptionally saves time
mogrify -resize -1x720 -background black -gravity center -extent -1x720 -format avif *.jpg
mogrify -resize 1280x720 -background black -gravity center -extent 1280x720 -format avif *.jpg
seems like limit for mv * somedir is around 10,000 or 15,000 ...anything over that you gotta use for in loop

Windows technically should work although quite a few scripts might not. Mainly just change screenshot dir in mpv.conf and in input.conf anytime you see ~ which corresponds to /Users/username (Mac) or /home/username (Linux) change it to %homedrive%%homepath% on Windows. Can't really test out Windows especially the network stuff.
More stuff can convert youtube auto-generated subs to demofont (removes diacritics), demofont uppercase, fixed yt (so doesn't repeat lines), lowercase. Also same conversion for subs locally and can save them if you wish.
Edit chapters and bake (embedding chapter metadata) them in mp4, mp3, mkv, opus. Output ogm, youtube timestamps, chapter list.
Save yt playlists, add titles and duration to playlists in order or reverse order.
Burn in hardsubs in WebM...encode from among the 550+ LUTs (lookup tables) into video.
Reverse video (easy to do but just 5 min video can use up to 10GB RAM) so it splits it into manageable chunks.
Video editing should be way easier than Shotcut and even easier than LosslessCut (which can only do slicing).
Can view recorded live yt streams and automatically downloads live-chat replay.

Windows in mpv.conf
just change screenshot directory like so
#Windows
screenshot-directory=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\\datampv\\screenshots
yt-chatreplay.lua
opts['live-chat-directory'] = "C:\\Users\\username\\datampv\\livechat"
youtube-download.conf
# Windows
# download_path=C:\\Users\\geektips\\datampv\download
sure there are others but that's some basic ones if you wish to test out mpvconfig on Windows
just change screenshot directory like so
#Windows
screenshot-directory=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\\datampv\\screenshots
yt-chatreplay.lua

# download_path=C:\\Users\\geektips\\datampv\download
