By default mpv chooses wrong video backend and shows this:

Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (--vo) device.
Video: no video

This patch fixes it.

I will merge it in 72 hours if no one minds.
Or anyone else can merge it earlier.

Patching it is definitely the better approach but we could also set a default using the mpv.conf

This change may break user's setup.
I mean you seen these annoying apt prompts where it asks you if you want to obtain vendor's version of config or keep your version, right?

Also anyway mediacodec backend requires JNI so it is useless...

Yeah patching is definitely the better solution here.
