Description

I’m looking to remotely control at least two instances of mpv, with the ability to select which display output each instance renders to.

Is this currently possible?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore mpv's IPC commands and property system to control display output; check if mpv remote node already supports display related commands or if a new command needs to be added.
