Reproduction Steps

1. Play any video with a vo set to something that uses Wayland:

   • Happens with gpu, gpu-next, dmabuf-wayland
   • Doesn't happen with x11, xv, vaapi

2. Resize the window to be as large as possible (without maximizing) or use something like autofit=90%.

3. Try dragging it.

Expected Behavior

The window drags normally, i.e. same behavior as when not using Wayland or when the window is small (e.g. autofit=30%, actual cutoff seems to be at 62% for me).

Actual Behavior

The window initially "jumps" so that the top middle of the window is aligned with the mouse pointer. This is especially visible when using window dragging, but happens when dragging via the title bar as well.

This screencap doesn't capture the mouse pointer, but shows what happens when I start dragging from the bottom right corner:

Sample Files

No response

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.
