Windows embedded mpv mode hides mouse cursor despite --cursor-autohide=no

[ennemkay]

OS: Windows 10 22H2
SMPlayer version: [fill in]
mpv version: [fill in]
Multimedia engine: mpv

Problem:
When mpv is embedded in the SMPlayer window, the mouse cursor disappears during windowed playback. This is not fullscreen playback.

The issue does not happen when I enable “Run mpv in its own window.”

Relevant mpv command-line excerpt from SMPlayer log:
--no-config --no-fs --vo=direct3d, --no-input-default-bindings --input-vo-keyboard=no --no-input-cursor --cursor-autohide=no --wid=...

Things tested:

• Not fullscreen
• Changing output driver does not fix it
• -mpcgui does not fix it
• smplayer.ini has no cursor-related setting
• Running mpv in its own window fixes it

Expected:
Cursor should remain visible in windowed embedded playback, especially since --cursor-autohide=no is present.

Actual:
Cursor disappears only in embedded mpv mode.
