libmpv 2026-08-14 + Vulkan loader
Same libmpv as libmpv-2026-08-14 (shinchiro 20260814, mpv v0.41.0-923-g7b8915bc1), with the Khronos Vulkan loader vulkan-1.dll bundled next to it.
Upstream's 2026-08-04 "vulkan: disable static loader" change gave libmpv-2.dll a load-time import of vulkan-1.dll, which only exists on systems whose GPU driver installed a Vulkan runtime. On machines with pre-Vulkan GPUs or the Microsoft Basic Display driver, LoadLibrary failed outright — black video, no sound (SubtitleEdit/subtitleedit#13856, upstream shinchiro/mpv-winbuild-cmake#831). The bundled loader fixes the import; with no Vulkan drivers present it simply enumerates zero ICDs and mpv's d3d11/OpenGL paths work as before.
vulkan-1.dll is from the LunarG Vulkan Runtime 1.4.357.0 (https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows, Apache-2.0, Authenticode-signed; license text included in each zip).
