Can I use multimedia/mpv with framebuffer in kms console?

[goshanecr]

Good day Friends!

I have a kms enabled console with graphics/drm-kmod installed and loaded.

Is it possible view video without X through multimedia/mpv?
I'm install it and from
mpv -vo help gives that options:

Available video outputs:
  libmpv           render API for libmpv
  gpu              Shader-based GPU Renderer
  sdl              SDL 2.0 Renderer
  null             Null video output
  image            Write video frames to image files
  tct              true-color terminals
  caca             libcaca
  drm              Direct Rendering Manager (software scaling)

But none of it's shows image. Is that possible see video in console or only in X mode?

PS. Also tried with multimedia/mplayer
as root: mplayer -vo svga -nocorrect-pts file.avi it starts blink screen several times and exits.

Who have successfull experience with video in framebuffer?

Not with the current port. Apparently it's possible to enable SDL2 and use directfb through that: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176072

But multimedia/sdl20 doesn't have support for the directfb output, so that would need to be enabled (and probably hacked a bit). Same would be true for MPlayer, you can enable SDL but then you run into the same issue with multimedia/sdl20.

Mplayer does have a configure option for directfb but it's disabled by default, probably because it doesn't work on FreeBSD and needs to be hacked to get working.

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --disable-arts \
 	                        --disable-directfb \
 	                        --disable-faac \
 	                        --disable-libdca \
 	                        --disable-toolame \
 	                        --disable-twolame \
 	                        --disable-x264 \
 	                        --disable-xvid \
 	                        --disable-mencoder \
 	                        --disable-mpg123 \
 	                        --disable-musepack \
 	                        --disable-theora

Have you tried --gpu-context=drm? Unlike --vo=drm it also works with --hwdec=vaapi.
