    If you’re in a kernel VT (i.e. Ctrl+Alt+F[1-7] without starting a graphical environment) MPV can also work in framebuffer mode (the default if you don’t specify a video output). It’ll show the video fullscreen at full resolution, bypassing the terminal characters.

    Who said terminal graphics had to look bad?
