Yep, Lua is so crappy that the stdlib doesn't provide anything like
this.
Repurposes the undocumented mp.format_table() function and moves it to
mp.utils.
Makeshift-solution for working around certain fontconfig issues.
With --use-text-osd=no, libass and fontconfig won't be initialized, and
fontconfig won't block everything with scanning for fonts.
The fact that it's a generic command prefix that is parsed even when
using the client API is a bit unclean (because this flag makes sense
for actual key-bindings only), but it's less code this way.
This command was actually requested on IRC ages ago, but I forgot about
it.
The main purpose is that the decoding state can be reset without issuing
a seek, in particular in situations where you can't seek.
This restarts decoding from the middle of the packet stream; since it
discards the packet buffer intentionally, and the decoder will typically
not output "incomplete" frames until it has recovered, it can skip a
large amount of data.
It doesn't clear the byte stream cache - I'm not sure if it should.
It's passed with the '--format' option to youtube-dl.
If it isn't set, we don't pass '--format best' so that youtube-dl can
use the options from its configuration file.

This sub-option was turned into a flag when the sub-option parser was
changed to the generic one (probably accidentally). Turn it into a
proper choice-option.
Also, adjust what the options do. Though none of this probably makes
much sense; the default should work, and if it doesn't, the GPU/driver
is probably beyond help.
Probably needs to be polished a bit more. Also, might require a key
binding that can set/clear the loop points in a more intuitive way.
For now, something like this can be put into input.conf to use it:
ctrl+y set ab-loop-a ${time-pos} # set A
ctrl+x set ab-loop-b ${time-pos} # set B
ctrl+c set ab-loop-a no # clear (mostly)
Fixes#1241.
Due to the current code structure, the "current" entry and the entry
which is playing can be different. This is probably silly, but still
try to mark the entries correctly.
Refs #1260.
This actually doesn't even write/return the new sub-property, because
I dislike the idea of dumping that field for every single playlist
entry, even though it's "needed" only for one.
Fixes#1260.
Make the changes started in commit c827ae5f more eloborate, and provide
an option to control the amount of data read before the seek-target. To
achieve this, rewrite the loop that finds the lowest still acceptable
target cluster. It is now searched by time instead of file position. The
behavior (both with and without preroll option) may be different from
before this change, although it shouldn't be worse.
The change demux_mkv_read_cues() fixes a bug: when seeking after playing
normally, the code would erroneously assume that durations are set. This
doesn't happen if the first operation after loading was a seek instead
of playback.
This might be interesting for GUIs and such.
It's probably still a little bit insufficient. For example, the filter
and audio/video output lists are not available through this.
Following the discussion in #1253.
The events won't be removed for a while, though. (Or maybe never, unless
we run out of bits for the uint64_t event mask.)
This is not a real change (the events still work, and the alternative
mechanisms were established a few API revisions earlier), but for the
sake of notifying API users, update DOCS/client-api-changes.rst.
The main need I see for this is with libmpv - it would be confusing if
some application showed up as "mpv" on whateverthehell PulseAudio uses
it for (generally it does show up on various PA GUI tools).
Call VOCTRL_GET_DISPLAY_NAMES it when the property is
requested. The vo should return the names of the displays that the mpv
window is covering. For example, with x11 vos, xrandr names LVDS1,
HDMI1, etc.
Note that you can't pass .cue or .edl files to it, at least not yet.
Requested in context of allowing to specify custom chapters. For that
to work well, we probably need to add some sort of chapter metadata
pseudo-demuxer.
Using the --playlist option is no longer recommended.
A while ago, mpv rewrote all playlist parsers and added some minimal
security mechanisms (like not allowing local file access or unsafe
protocols in remote playlists). Further, mpv can load playlists by
passing them as normal file arguments, without the option.
Now, --playlist is needed only in these situations:
1) loading plaintext files
2) disabling additional security mechanisms
(e.g. using a remote playlist to play local files)
This is probably what libmpv users want; and it also improves error
reporting (or we'd have to add a way to communicate such mid-playback
failures as events).
