One can still control mpv via stdin(4) using a keyboard but keybindings would be limited by termios(4). For example, Ctrl+S would pause playback after a few seconds instead of taking a screenshot. SDL2 probably has a bug. SDL1 uses vgl(3) instead of KDSKBMODE directly.

Btw. freebsd-questions list is better place for this kind of questions. freebsd-current is specific for CURRENT branch development related discussions :-) that was precisely my question, if it is possible to do *on current* at all. because as i pointed out, i havent found almost anyone saying it does on my searches. what i know is that it works with the linux framebuffer sdl directfb. thats it example, mpv on ports doesnt even seem to have sdl support, neither sdl from ports support to drm. thanks --tzk

We have graphical applications (i.e. SDL) working on a DRM KMS console with no Xorg nor Wayland.. but no input.. looking for a solution :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info

Hey there Niclas :-) Do you know how to enable input devices (keyboard/mouse) in the console graphical applications? Is it possible? :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info

In a long dead ago project, the input, events, and displays were all integrated into the vty and mux'd from there. The kernel provides evdev devices now, and there is a library, tho I do not know how to get vt(4) to integrate with evdev, or if the library is the way to do it? Any other ideas?

photo/video on tty console with the new VT/framebuffer
Hi all i have a question. searched everywhere and found nothing about. Is it possible to visualize photos on tty console like we used to on old SYSCONS by using zgv or something? Or watching videos with mpv/mplayer + sdl 2.0/openGL or something? Or seeing pictures on w3m-img like unix does ? thanks all --tzk
