Expected behavior of the wanted feature
Playing an H.264 MVC 3D file (Blu-ray 3D remux, e.g. MakeMKV output, .mkv/.mk3d), mpv would decode both views and allow presenting them side-by-side / top-bottom (or via the existing stereo3d filter modes), similar to how flagged SBS content is already handled.
Actual behavior:
Only the MVC base view is decoded; the dependent view is discarded, so the file plays as 2D with no way to access the second eye.
Context:
Root cause might be upstream (libavcodec). Filing here to track the feature on mpv's side if/when a decode path exists, mpv would still need to pair the views and expose them to the stereo3d/stereo presentation machinery.
LAV Filters ships MVC 3D decoding via Intel Media SDK (outside FFmpeg), and an open-source software MVC decoder (edge264-mvc) is also available. madVR-based DirectShow players can play these files today; mpv users currently must transcode to SBS first.
