Reproduction Steps

Configure KDE to use fractional scaling. The example at hand uses 150% scaling. Define a Wayland session name in mpv.conf.

Keep restarting using the same video, since you expect mpv to restart at the last used window dimensions/width as before due to session restore.

Expected Behavior

The window to spawn at the correct size, not the reciprocal of 150%.

Actual Behavior

The window keeps shrinking at the inverse of the fractional UI scale. See example recorded here:

First three attempts without Wayland sessions enabled. Then a Wayland session name gets defined and things start shrinking.

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

• I tested and confirmed that the issue exists with the latest release version or newer.
• 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.
