Does it work with GL 2.1? Also, with equirectangular (think Street View) PNG/JPG images for example? I can use imagemagick to convert those to GIF, OFC.

EDIT: It works with -loop 0 but it's very slow compared to FSPViewer.

May you also try latest VLC (Desktop & Mobile) with same files for comparison?[0]

VLC runs well. I uses this as an example:

MPV on 360 deg videos is a slideshow.

Thank you for test! Must say, I expected such result.
