I recently started using my Chromebook more and was struggling to find a way to make the video playback smoother when using mpv running on ChromeOS.

I quickly realized the default config doesn't use hardware accel on ChromeOS as it is disabled for crostini.

I wrote a guide on how to enable it and use a custom config to enhance the user experience.

GitHub repo is a fork modified to enable mpv hw accel support in crostini.

Chrome OS is a surveillance tool for Google and authorities, and should be illegal to give to minors.
It's actually illegal in EU, except for some reason EU is giving it a pass.
