How can I make mpv show the duration counter constantly?

6

I use the mpv video player in Linux. With the keys Shift+P, I can see the duration of the video I am watching.

How can I set mpv to show the duration all the time (without the need of pressing Shift+P) ?

Aside from the configuration Shift+O toggles duration display in the player.

Check MPV documentation. You can use option: --osd-level=2. Or write into config file (location: ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf):

# Show duration by default.
osd-level=2
