This script allows users to take screenshots in MPV, crop them to keep only the bottom portion, and stitch them together into a long vertical image, just like a meme of lines. It is designed for Windows operating systems and requires ffmpeg to function.

• Take multiple screenshots with the press of a key.
• Crop the bottom portion of the screenshots to create a unified long image.
• Stitch all cropped images together into a single output image.
• Option to save screenshots in lossless .png format for higher quality or .jpg format for smaller file size.
• Customizable directory for saving images and height of cropped sections.

• MPV Media Player
• FFmpeg (ensure it is in your system's PATH)

1. Ensure you have MPV and FFmpeg installed on your system.
2. Copy the script into your MPV scripts directory, typically found at:
   • C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\mpv\scripts\
3. Edit the script to set the desired screenshot directory, cropping height, and whether to save images in lossless format.
4. Restart MPV.

1. Key Bindings:

   • Press n to take a screenshot (can be pressed multiple times).
   • Press Ctrl+n to create the stitched image from the taken screenshots.

2. Configuration:

   • Update the dir option in the script to specify the directory where screenshots will be saved.
   • Adjust the height option to set the proportion of each image to keep (height from the bottom).
   • Set the lossless option to true if you want lossless PNG images, or false for compressed JPEG images.

Note: Using the lossless option will significantly increase the time it takes to process and stitch images due to the larger file size and processing requirements of PNG files.

local options = {
    dir = "C:/Users/YourUsername/Documents/mpv/screenshots",
    height = 0.15,  -- Keep 15% of the image height from the bottom
    lossless = false,  -- Save screenshots as JPG for lower processing time
}
