ability to change seekbar mouseover tooltip font/style

[videonerd]

All fonts/style can be changed except the seekbar mouseover tooltip. It would be good to be able to change this. Or am I missing something?

[bitingsock]

It uses the --osd-font setting.

@bitingsock Nope it doesn't, just tried changing osd font settings which has no impact on the mouseover tooltip (tried osd-border-size, osd-blur, etc nothing has any impact).

[bitingsock]

To be clear you are talking about the On-Screen-Controller, right? Hovering over the seekbar and seeing the timecode?

[videonerd]

@bitingsock yes that is correct - i note that the osd styling doesn't effect it as suggested. Any idea? Thank you.

[bitingsock]

Just confirmed with a zero-config: this setting changes it for me as well as all other osd elements. what is your version?

[videonerd]

@bitingsock I am using the latest nightly compiled by shincharo and layout=slimbox

OSD formating doesn't work on the timecode when hovering over the seekbar (as defined in mpv.conf)

@bitingsock upon further investigation, my observations are as follows - this specific timecode on mouseover the OSC only respects osd-font but doesn't respect any other setting e.g. osd-border-size,
osd-shadow-color, osd-shadow-offset, osd-color etc. It only defaults to white text with black shadow/blur.

Hope this provides more information.

Looking at the osc code https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/player/lua/osc.lua we can see that it hardcodes all those other values. Look at line 74, for example, for the "timecode" style. you would have to change it there to get what you want.

[videonerd]

@bitingsock Yes hence my feature request - for these hardcoded values to be exposed for customization like all other elements (osd, subtitles) or at the very least respect the existing osd variables (like what is already happening only for osd-font). Thank you.

Maybe you need to edit osc.lua Please check this thread.
