Ah, right, it didn't occur to me that there was a hardware component
involved.

I had initially thought about it, but installing older versions from
snapshot can often turn into a recursive nightmare when many libraries
are involved.  I imagined this would be the case for mpv.  Turns out I
was dead wrong.  :)

(I was further surprised at how smooth and painless bisecting was.
Pretty much the exact opposite of my previous experience with MPlayer
years ago.)

Did you mean "bt full"?  Good point.  Thanks!
