Release 0.2.4

We got a crash in libavutil when encoding with Y8 (GRAY8). The reason
was that libavutil was copying an Y8 image allocated by us, and expected
a palette. This is because GRAY8 is a PSEUDOPAL format. It's not clear
what PSEUDOPAL means, and it makes literally no sense at all. However,
it does expect a palette allocated for some formats that are not
paletted, and libavutil crashed when trying to access the non-existent
palette.

-mpv can be built as LGPLv2.1+ without using any GPL only files. To add a
-LGPL mode to mpv, MPlayer code had to be relicensed from GPLv2+ to LGPLv2.1+ by
-asking the MPlayer authors for permission. Since permission could not be
-obtained from everyone, LGPL mode disables the following features, some of them
-quite central:
-- Linux X11 video output
-- BSD audio output via OSS
-- NVIDIA/Linux hardware decoding (vdpau, although nvdec usually works)
-- minor features: jack, DVD, CDDA, DVB, CACA, legacy direct3d VO
-Some of these will be fixed in the future. The intended use for LGPL mode is
-with libmpv, and currently it's not recommended to build mpv CLI in LGPL mode
-at all.
+Note that mplayer2 as a whole is licensed under GPLv3+. This is because it uses

+1. Input layer, supported devices, methods:
+  - plain file, with seeking

+  - VCD (Video CD) track, by direct CDROM device access (not requires mounting disc)
+  - DVD titles using .IFO structure, by direct DVD device access (not requires mounting disc)
+  - DVD titles using menu navigation (experimental/alpha, not yet finished!!!)

+  - RTP streaming (mpeg-ps over multicast only)
+  - LIVE555 streaming - support SDP/RTSP (using the LIVE555 libs)
+  - SMB - file access over samba (experimental)
+
+2. Demuxer/parser layer, supported file/media formats:
+
+  - MPEG streams (ES,PES,PS. no TS support yet)
+    note: mpeg demuxer silently ignore non-mpeg content, and find mpeg packets
+    in arbitrary streams. it means you can play directly VCD images (for example
+    CDRwin's .BIN files) without extracting mpeg files first (with tools like vcdgear)
+    It accepts all PES variants, including files created by VDR.
+    Note: VOB (video object) is simple mpeg stream, but it usually has 01BD
+    packets which may contain subtitles and non-mpeg audio. Usually found on DVD discs.
+
+    Headers: mpeg streams has no global header. each frame sequence (also called GOP,
+    group of pictures) contains an sequence header, it describes that block.
+    In normal mpeg 1/2 content there are groups of 12-15 frames (24/30 fps).
+    It means you can freely seek in mpeg streams, and even can cut it to
+    small parts with standard file tools (dd, cut) without destroying it.
+
+    Codecs: video is always mpeg video (mpeg1, mpeg2 or mpeg4).
+    audio is usually mpeg audio (any layer allowed, but it's layer 2 in most files)
+    but 01BD packets may contain AC3, DTS or LPCM too.
+
+    FPS: mpeg2 content allows variable framerate, in form of delayed frames.
+    It's mostly used for playback 24fps content at 29.97/30 fps (NTSC) rate.
+    (so called Telecine or 3:2 pulldown effect)
+    It means you see 30 frames per second, but there are only 24 different
+    pictures and some of them are shown longer to fill 30 frame time.
+    If you encode such files with mencoder, using -ofps 24 or -ofps 23.976
+    is recommended.
+
+  - AVI streams.
+    Two kind of RIFF AVI files exists:
+    1. interleaved: audio and video content is interleaved. it's faster and
+       requires only 1 reading thread, so it's recommended (and mostly used).
+    2. non-interleaved: audio and video aren't interleaved, i mean first come
+       whole video followed by whole audio. it requires 2 reading process or
+       1 reading with lots of seeking. very bad for network or cdrom.
+    3. badly interleaved streams: mplayer detects interleaving at startup and
+       enables -ni option if it finds non-interleaved content. but sometimes
+       the stream seems to be interleaved, but with bad sync so it should be
+       played as non-interleaved otherwise you get a-v desync or buffer overflow.
+
+    MPlayer supports 2 kind of timing for AVI files:
+    - bps-based: it is based on bitrate/samplerate of video/audio stream.
+      this method is used by most players, including avifile and wmp.
+      files with broken headers, and files created with VBR audio but not
+      vbr-compliant encoder will result a-v desync with this method.
+      (mostly at seeking).
+    - interleaving-based: note: it can't be used togethwer with -ni
+      it doesn't use bitrate stuff of header, it uses the relative position
+      of interleaved audio and video chunks. makes some badly encoded file
+      with vbr audio playable.
+
+    Headers: AVI files has a mandatory header at the begin of the file,
+    describing video parameters (resolution, fps) and codecs. Optionally
+    they have an INDEX block at the end of the file. It's optional, but
+    most files has such block, because it's REQUIRED for seeking.
+    Btw usually it can be rebuilt from file content, mplayer does it with
+    the -idx switch. MPlayer can recreate broken index blocks using -forceidx.
+    As AVI files needs index for random access, broken files with no index
+    are usually unplayable.
+    Of course, cutting/joining AVI files needs special programs.
+
+    Codecs: any audio and video codecs allowed, but I note that VBR audio is
+    not well supported by most players. The file format makes it possible to
+    use VBR audio, but most players expect CBR audio and fails with VBR,
+    as VBR is unusual, and Microsoft's AVI specs only describe CBR audio.
+    I also note, that most AVI encoders/multiplexers create bad files if
+    using VBR audio. only 2 exception (known by me): NaNDub and MEncoder.
+
+    FPS: only constant framerate allowed, but it's possible to skip frames.
+
+  - ASF streams:
+    ASF (active streaming format) comes from Microsoft. they developed two
+    variant of ASF, v1.0 and v2.0. v1.0 is used by their media tools (wmp and
+    wme) and v2.0 is published and patented :). of course, they differ,
+    no compatibility at all. (it's just a legality game)
+    MPlayer supports only v1.0, as nobody ever seen v2.0 files :)
+    Note, that .ASF files are nowdays come with extension .WMA or .WMV.
+    UPDATE: MS recently released the ASF v1.0 specs too, but it has some
+    restrictions making it illegal to read by us :)
+
+    Headers: Stream headers (codecs parameters) can be everywhere (in theory),
+    but all files i've seen had it at the beginning of the file.
+    Asf uses fixed packet size, so it is seekable without any INDEX block,
+    and broken files are playable well.
+
+    Codecs: video is mostly microsoft's mpeg4 variants: MP42, MP43 (aka DivX),
+            WMV1 and WMV2. but any codecs allowed.
+            audio is usually wma or voxware, sometimes mp3, but any codecs allowed.
+
+    FPS: no fixed fps, every video frame has an exact timestamp instead.
+    I've got stream with up to 3 sec frame display times.
+
+  - QuickTime / MOV files:
+    They come from Mac users, usually with .mov or .qt extension, but as
+    MPEG Group chose quicktime as recommended file format for MPEG4,
+    sometimes you meet quicktime files with .mpg or .mp4 extension.
+
+    At first look, it's a mixture of ASF and AVI.
+    It requires INDEX block for random access and seeking, and even for
+    playback, like AVI, but uses timestamps instead of constant framerate
+    and has more flexible stream options (including network stuff) like ASF.
+
+    Headers: header can be placed at the beginning or at the end of file.
+    About half of my files have it at the beginning, others have it at the end.
+    Broken files are only playable if they have header at the beginning!
+
+    Codecs: any codecs allowed, both CBR and VBR.
+    Note: most new mov files use Sorenson video and QDesign Music audio,
+    they are patented, closed, secret, (TM)-ed etc formats, only Apple's
+    quicktime player is able to playback these files (on win/mac only).
+
+  - VIVO files:
+    They are funny streams. They have a human-readable ascii header at
+    the beginning, followed by interleaved audio and video chunks.
+    It has no index block, has no fixed packetsize or sync bytes, and most
+    files even has no keyframes, so forget seeking!
+    Video is standard h.263 (in vivo/2.0 files it's modified, non-standard
+    h.263), audio is either standard g.723 or Vivo Siren codec.
+
+    Note, that microsoft licensed vivo stuff, and included in their netshow
+    v2.0 program, so there are VfW/ACM codecs for vivo video and audio.
+
+  - RealMedia files:
+    A mixture of AVI and ASF features. It has mandatory headers at the
+    beginning and an optional INDEX (missing in most files).
+    The file is constructed of variable size chunks, with small header
+    telling the stream ID, timestamp, flags (keyframe...) and size.
+    But it has some features found in ASF files:
+    The video is actually double-muxed, the video chunks are really
+    appended fragments of the video frame. RV30+ supports B frames, so
+    you have to parse some bits of the first fragment to get the real PTS.
+    The audio frames are fixed size (CBR) but using the same scrambling
+    (out-of-order interleaving) as in the ASF files.
+

+So, I'll describe how this stuff works.
+
+The main modules:
+
+1. stream.c: this is the input layer, this reads the input media (file, stdin,
+   vcd, dvd, network etc).  what it has to know: appropriate buffering by
+   sector, seek, skip functions, reading by bytes, or blocks with any size.
+   The stream_t (stream.h) structure describes the input stream, file/device.
+
+   There is a stream cache layer (cache2.c), it's a wrapper for the stream
+   API. It does fork(), then emulates stream driver in the parent process,
+   and stream user in the child process, while proxying between them using
+   preallocated big memory chunk for FIFO buffer.
+
+2. demuxer.c: this does the demultiplexing (separating) of the input to
+   audio, video or dvdsub channels, and their reading by buffered packages.
+         The demuxer.c is basically a framework, which is the same for all the
+         input formats, and there are parsers for each of them (mpeg-es,
+         mpeg-ps, avi, avi-ni, asf), these are in the demux_*.c files.
+         The structure is the demuxer_t. There is only one demuxer.
+
+2.a. demux_packet_t, that is DP.
+   Contains one chunk (avi) or packet (asf,mpg). They are stored in memory as
+         in linked list, cause of their different size.
+
+2.b. demuxer stream, that is DS.
+   Struct: demux_stream_t
+   Every channel (a/v/s) has one. This contains the packets for the stream
+         (see 2.a). For now, there can be 3 for each demuxer :
+         - audio (d_audio)
+         - video (d_video)
+         - DVD subtitle (d_dvdsub)
+
+2.c. stream header. There are 2 types (for now): sh_audio_t and sh_video_t
+   This contains every parameter essential for decoding, such as input/output
+         buffers, chosen codec, fps, etc. There are each for every stream in
+         the file. At least one for video, if sound is present then another,
+         but if there are more, then there'll be one structure for each.
+         These are filled according to the header (avi/asf), or demux_mpg.c
+         does it (mpg) if it founds a new stream. If a new stream is found,
+         the ====> Found audio/video stream: <id>  messages is displayed.
+
+         The chosen stream header and its demuxer are connected together
+         (ds->sh and sh->ds) to simplify the usage. So it's enough to pass the
+         ds or the sh, depending on the function.
+
+         For example: we have an asf file, 6 streams inside it, 1 audio, 5
+         video. During the reading of the header, 6 sh structs are created, 1
+         audio and 5 video. When it starts reading the packet, it chooses the
+         stream for the first found audio & video packet, and sets the sh
+         pointers of d_audio and d_video according to them. So later it reads
+         only these streams. Of course the user can force choosing a specific
+         stream with
+         -vid and -aid switches.
+         A good example for this is the DVD, where the english stream is not
+         always the first, so every VOB has different language :)
+         That's when we have to use for example the -aid 128 switch.
+
+  Now, how this reading works?
+         - demuxer.c/demux_read_data() is called, it gets how many bytes,
+           and where (memory address), would we like to read, and from which
+           DS. The codecs call this.
+         - this checks if the given DS's buffer contains something, if so, it
+           reads from there as much as needed. If there isn't enough, it calls
+           ds_fill_buffer(), which:
+         - checks if the given DS has buffered packages (DP's), if so, it moves
+           the oldest to the buffer, and reads on. If the list is empty, it
+           calls demux_fill_buffer() :
+         - this calls the parser for the input format, which reads the file
+           onward, and moves the found packages to their buffers.
+                 Well it we'd like an audio package, but only a bunch of video
+                 packages are available, then sooner or later the:
+                 DEMUXER: Too many (%d in %d bytes) audio packets in the buffer
+                 error shows up.
+
+2.d. video.c: this file/function handle the reading and assembling of the
+     video frames. each call to video_read_frame() should read and return a
+     single video frame, and it's duration in seconds (float).
+     The implementation is splitted to 2 big parts - reading from mpeg-like
+     streams and reading from one-frame-per-chunk files (avi, asf, mov).
+     Then it calculates duration, either from fixed FPS value, or from the
+     PTS difference between and after reading the frame.
+
+2.e. other utility functions: there are some useful code there, like
+    AVI muxer, or mp3 header parser, but leave them for now.
+
+So everything is ok 'till now. It can be found in libmpdemux/ library.
+It should compile outside of mplayer tree, you just have to implement few
+simple functions, like mp_msg() to print messages, etc.
+See libmpdemux/test.c for example.
+
+See also formats.txt, for description of common media file formats and their
+implementation details in libmpdemux.
+
+Now, go on:
+
+3. mplayer.c - ooh, he's the boss :)
+    Its main purpose is connecting the other modules, and maintaining A/V
+    sync.
+
+    The given stream's actual position is in the 'timer' field of the
+    corresponding stream header (sh_audio / sh_video).
+
+         The structure of the playing loop :
+         while(not EOF) {
+             fill audio buffer (read & decode audio) + increase a_frame
+             read & decode a single video frame + increase v_frame
+             sleep  (wait until a_frame>=v_frame)
+             display the frame
+             apply A-V PTS correction to a_frame
+             handle events (keys,lirc etc) -> pause,seek,...
+         }
+
+         When playing (a/v), it increases the variables by the duration of the
+         played a/v.
+         - with audio this is played bytes / sh_audio->o_bps
+         Note: i_bps = number of compressed bytes for one second of audio
+               o_bps = number of uncompressed bytes for one second of audio
+                   (this is = bps*samplerate*channels)
+         - with video this is usually == 1.0/fps, but I have to note that
+         fps doesn't really matters at video, for example asf doesn't have that,
+         instead there is "duration" and it can change per frame.
+         MPEG2 has "repeat_count" which delays the frame by 1-2.5 ...
+         Maybe only AVI and MPEG1 has fixed fps.
+
+         So everything works right until the audio and video are in perfect
+         synchronity, since the audio goes, it gives the timing, and if the
+         time of a frame passed, the next frame is displayed.
+         But what if these two aren't synchronized in the input file?
+         PTS correction kicks in. The input demuxers read the PTS (presentation
+         timestamp) of the packages, and with it we can see if the streams
+         are synchronized. Then MPlayer can correct the a_frame, within
+         a given maximal bounder (see -mc option). The summary of the
+         corrections can be found in c_total .
+
+         Of course this is not everything, several things suck.
+         For example the soundcards delay, which has to be corrected by
+         MPlayer! The audio delay is the sum of all these:
+         - bytes read since the last timestamp:
+           t1 = d_audio->pts_bytes/sh_audio->i_bps
+         - if Win32/ACM then the bytes stored in audio input buffer
+           t2 = a_in_buffer_len/sh_audio->i_bps
+         - uncompressed bytes in audio out buffer
+           t3 = a_buffer_len/sh_audio->o_bps
+         - not yet played bytes stored in the soundcard's (or DMA's) buffer
+           t4 = get_audio_delay()/sh_audio->o_bps
+
+         From this we can calculate what PTS we need for the just played
+         audio, then after we compare this with the video's PTS, we have
+         the difference!
+
+         Life didn't get simpler with AVI. There's the "official" timing
+         method, the BPS-based, so the header contains how many compressed
+         audio bytes or chunks belong to one second of frames.
+         In the AVI stream header there are 2 important fields, the
+         dwSampleSize, and dwRate/dwScale pairs:
+         - If the dwSampleSize is 0, then it's VBR stream, so its bitrate
+         isn't constant. It means that 1 chunk stores 1 sample, and
+         dwRate/dwScale gives the chunks/sec value.
+         - If the dwSampleSize is >0, then it's constant bitrate, and the
+         time can be measured this way:  time = (bytepos/dwSampleSize) /
+         (dwRate/dwScale) (so the sample's number is divided with the
+         samplerate). Now the audio can be handled as a stream, which can
+         be cut to chunks, but can be one chunk also.
+
+         The other method can be used only for interleaved files: from
+         the order of the chunks, a timestamp (PTS) value can be calculated.
+         The PTS of the video chunks are simple: chunk number * fps
+         The audio is the same as the previous video chunk was.
+         We have to pay attention to the so called "audio preload", that is,
+         there is a delay between the audio and video streams. This is
+         usually 0.5-1.0 sec, but can be totally different.
+         The exact value was measured until now, but now the demux_avi.c
+         handles it: at the audio chunk after the first video, it calculates
+         the A/V difference, and take this as a measure for audio preload.
+
+3.a. audio playback:
+         Some words on audio playback:
+         Not the playing is hard, but:
+         1. knowing when to write into the buffer, without blocking
+         2. knowing how much was played of what we wrote into
+         The first is needed for audio decoding, and to keep the buffer
+         full (so the audio will never skip). And the second is needed for
+         correct timing, because some soundcards delay even 3-7 seconds,
+         which can't be forgotten about.
+         To solve this, the OSS gives several possibilities:
+         - ioctl(SNDCTL_DSP_GETODELAY): tells how many unplayed bytes are in
+           the soundcard's buffer -> perfect for timing, but not all drivers
+           support it :(
+         - ioctl(SNDCTL_DSP_GETOSPACE): tells how much can we write into the
+           soundcard's buffer, without blocking. If the driver doesn't
+           support GETODELAY, we can use this to know how much the delay is.
+         - select(): should tell if we can write into the buffer without
+           blocking. Unfortunately it doesn't say how much we could :((
+           Also, doesn't/badly works with some drivers.
+           Only used if none of the above works.
+
+4. Codecs. Consists of libmpcodecs/* and separate files or libs,
+   for example libmpeg2, loader, mp3lib.
+
+   mplayer.c doesn't call them directly, but through the dec_audio.c and
+   dec_video.c files, so the mplayer.c doesn't have to know anything about
+   the codecs.
+
+   libmpcodecs contains wrapper for every codecs, some of them include the
+   codec function implementation, some calls functions from other files
+   included with mplayer, some calls optional external libraries.
+   file naming convention in libmpcodecs:
+   ad_*.c - audio decoder (called through dec_audio.c)
+   vd_*.c - video decoder (called through dec_video.c)
+   ve_*.c - video encoder (used by mencoder)
+   vf_*.c - video filter  (see option -vf)

+
+patch applied (with some comments added and an unwanted change (in software
+a52 decoder) removed)
+
+now i understand how this whole hwac3 mess work.
+it's very very tricky. it virtually decodes ac3 to LPCM packets, but really
+it keeps the original compressed data padded by zeros. this way it's
+constant bitrate, and sync is calculated just like for stereo PCM.
+(so it bypass LPCM-capable media converters...)
+

+6144 = 4*(6*256) = 4 * samples_per_ac3_frame = LPCM size of uncompressed ac3
+frame.
+
+i wanna know if it works for sblive and other ac3-capable cards too?
+(i can't test it, lack of ac3 decoder)
+
+A'rpi / Astral & ESP-team
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Hi folks.
+I spend some time fiddling with ac3 passthrough in mplayer. The
+traditional way of setting the output format to AFMT_AC3 was no ideal
+solution since not all digital io cards/drivers supported this format or
+honoured it to set the spdif non-audio bit. To make it short, it only
+worked with oss sblive driver IIRC.
+
+Inspired by alsa's ac3dec program I found an alternative way by
+inspecting to which format the alsa device had been set. Suprise: it was
+simple 16bit_le 2_channel pcm. So setting the non-audio bit doesn't
+necessarily mean the point. The only important thing seems to be
+bit-identical output at the correct samplerate. Modern AV-Receivers seem
+to be quite tolerant/compatible.
+
+So I changed the output format of hwac3 from
+
+AFMT_AC3 channels=1
+   to
+AFMT_S16_LE channels=2
+
+and corrected the absolute time calculation. That was all to get it
+running for me.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Hi there.
+
+Perhaps I can clear up some mystification about AC3 passthrough in
+general and mplayer in special:
+
+To get the external decoder solution working, it must be fed with data
+which is bitidentical to the chunks in the source ac3 file (compressed
+data is very picky about bit errors). Additionally - or better to say
+'historically' - the non-audio bit should be set in the spdif status
+fields to prevent old spdif hardware from reproducing ugly scratchy
+noise. Note: for current decoders (probably those with DTS capability)
+this safety bit isn't needed anymore. At least I can state that for my
+Sherwood RVD-6095RDS. I think it is due to DTS because DTS sound can
+reside on a ordinary AudioCD and an ordinary AudioCD-Player will always
+have it's audio-bit set.
+
+The sample format of the data must be 2channel 16bit (little endian
+IIRC). Samplerates are 48kHz - although my receiver also accepts
+44100Hz. I do not know if this is due to an over-compatability of my
+receiver or if 44100 is also possible in the ac3 specs. For safety's
+sake lets keep this at 48000Hz. AC3 data chunks are inserted into the
+stream every 0x1600 bytes (don't bite me on that, look into
+'ac3-iec958.c': 'ac3_iec958_build_burst').
+
+To come back to the problem: data must be played bit-identically through
+the soundcard at the correct samplerate and should optionally have it's
+non-audio bit set. There are two ways to accomplish this:
+
+1) Some OSS guy invented the format AFMT_AC3. Soundcard drivers
+implementing this format should therefore adjust it's mixers and
+switches to produce the desired output. Unfortunately some soundcard
+drivers do not support this format correctly and most do not even
+support it at all (including ALSA).
+
+2) The alternative approach currently in mplayer CVS is to simply set
+the output format to 48kHz16bitLE and rely on the user to have the
+soundcard mixers adjusted properly.
+
+I do have two soundcards with digital IO facilities (CMI8738 and
+Trident4DWaveNX based) plus the mentioned decoder. I'm currently running
+Linux-2.4.17. Following configurations are happily running here:
+
+1. Trident with ALSA drivers (OSS does not support Hoontech's dig. IO)
+2. CMI with ALSA drivers
+3. CMI with OSS drivers
+
+For Linux I'd suggest using ALSA because of it's cleaner architecture
+and more consitent user interface. Not to mention that it'll be the
+standard sound support in Linux soon.
+
+For those who want to stick to OSS drivers: The CMI8738 drivers works
+out-of-the-box, if the PCM/Wave mixer is set to 100%.
+
+For ALSA I'd suggest using its OSS emulation. More on that later.
+ALSA-0.9 invented the idea of cards, devices and dubdevices. You can
+reach the digital interface of all supported cards consitently by using
+the device 'hw:x,2' (x counting from 0 is the number of your soundcard).
+So most people would end up at 'hw:0,2'. This device can only be opened
+in sample formats and rates which are directly supported in hardware
+hence no samplerate conversion is done keeping the stream as-is. However
+most consumer soundcards do not support 44kHz so it would definitively
+be a bad idea to use this as your standard device if you wanted to
+listen to some mp3s (most of them are 44kHz due to CD source). Here the
+OSS comes to play again. You can configure which OSS device (/dev/dsp
+and /dev/adsp) uses which ALSA device. So I'd suggest pointing the
+standard '/dev/dsp' to standard 'hw:0,0' which suports mixing and
+samplerate conversion. No further reconfiguration would be needed for
+your sound apps. For movies I'd point '/dev/adsp' to 'hw:0,2' and
+configure mplayer to use adsp instead of dsp. The samplerate constrain
+is no big deal here since movies usually are in 48Khz anyway. The
+configuration in '/etc/modules.conf' is no big deal also:
+
+alias snd-card-0 snd-card-cmipci        # insert your card here
+alias snd-card-1 snd-pcm-oss            # load OSS emulation
+options snd-pcm-oss snd_dsp_map=0 snd_adsp_map=2        # do the mapping
+
+This works flawlessly in combination with alsa's native
+SysVrc-init-script 'alsasound'. Be sure to disable any distribution
+dependent script (e.g. Mandrake-8.1 has an 'alsa' script which depends
+on ALSA-0.5).
+
+Sorry for you *BSD'lers out there. I have no grasp on sound support there.
+
+HTH Marcus

+        init the video system (to support querying for supported formats)
+
+    uninit():
+      Uninit the whole system, this is on the same "level" as preinit.
+
+    control():
+      Current controls (VOCTRL_QUERY_FORMAT must be implemented,
+      VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE, VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN, VOCTRL_UPDATE_SCREENINFO
+      should be implemented):
+         VOCTRL_QUERY_FORMAT  -  queries if a given pixelformat is supported.
+                It also returns various flags decsirbing the capabilities
+                of the driver with teh given mode. for the flags, see
+                file vfcaps.h !
+                the most important flags, every driver must properly report
+                these:
+                    0x1  -  supported (with or without conversion)
+                    0x2  -  supported without conversion (define 0x1 too!)
+                    0x100  -  driver/hardware handles timing (blocking)
+                also SET sw/hw scaling and osd support flags, and flip,
+                and accept_stride if you implement VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE (see bellow)
+                NOTE: VOCTRL_QUERY_FORMAT may be called _before_ first config()
+                but is always called between preinit() and uninit()
+         VOCTRL_GET_IMAGE
+                libmpcodecs Direct Rendering interface
+                You need to update mpi (mp_image.h) structure, for example,
+                look at vo_x11, vo_sdl, vo_xv or mga_common.
+         VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE
+                replacement for the current draw_slice/draw_frame way of
+                passing video frames. by implementing SET_IMAGE, you'll get
+                image in mp_image struct instead of by calling draw_*.
+                unless you return VO_TRUE for VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE call, the
+                old-style draw_* functils will be called!
+                Note: draw_slice is still mandatory, for per-slice rendering!
+         VOCTRL_RESET  -  reset the video device
+                This is sent on seeking and similar and is useful if you are
+                using a device which prebuffers frames that need to flush them
+                before refilling audio/video buffers.
+         VOCTRL_PAUSE
+         VOCTRL_RESUME
+         VOCTRL_GUISUPPORT
+                return true only if driver supports co-operation with
+                MPlayer's GUI (not yet used by GUI)
+         VOCTRL_SET_EQUALIZER
+                set the video equalizer to the given values
+                two arguments are provided: item and value
+                item is a string, the possible values are (currently):
+                    brightness, contrast, saturation, hue
+         VOCTRL_GET_EQUALIZER
+                get the current video equalizer values
+                two arguments are provided: item and value
+                item is a string, the possible values are (currently):
+                    brightness, contrast, saturation, hue
+         VOCTRL_ONTOP
+                Makes the player window stay-on-top. Only supported (currently)
+                by drivers which use X11, except SDL, as well as directx and
+                gl2 under Windows.
+         VOCTRL_BORDER
+                Makes the player window borderless.
+         VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN
+                Switch from and to fullscreen mode
+         VOCTRL_GET_PANSCAN
+         VOCTRL_SET_PANSCAN
+                Needed to implement pan-scan support ('w' and 'e' keys during
+                playback in fullscreen mode)
+         VOCTRL_START_SLICE
+                Called before the first draw_slice of each frame, useful if
+                you need to do some set-up work.
+         VOCTRL_DRAW_EOSD
+                Required for EOSD (ASS subtitle) support. Provides all
+                information necessary to draw the EOSD for the current video
+                frame.
+         VOCTRL_GET_EOSD_RES
+                Required for EOSD (ASS subtitle) support. Informs the ASS
+                renderer about the properties of the drawing area (size,
+                borders).
+         VOCTRL_SET_DEINTERLACE
+         VOCTRL_GET_DEINTERLACE
+                Get or set deinterlacing status for VOs that support some kind
+                of deinterlacing.
+         VOCTRL_UPDATE_SCREENINFO
+                Should set the xinerama_x, xinerama_y, vo_screenwidth and
+                vo_screenheight appropriately for the currently used
+                monitor and -xineramascreen option.
+                Usually should simply call the w32_update_xinerama_info or
+                update_xinerama_info function.
+                By supporting this, the VO also requests the newer API
+                that sets vo_dx, vo_dy etc. appropriately before config()
+                is called.
+
+    config():
+      Set up the video system. You get the dimensions and flags.
+      width, height: size of the source image
+      d_width, d_height: wanted scaled/display size (it's a hint)
+      Flags:
+        0x01    - force fullscreen (-fs)
+        0x02    - allow mode switching (-vm)
+        0x04    - allow software scaling (-zoom)
+        0x08    - flipping (-flip)
+      They're defined as VOFLAG_* (see libvo/video_out.h)
+
+      IMPORTANT NOTE: config() may be called 0 (zero), 1 or more (2,3...)
+      times between preinit() and uninit() calls. You MUST handle it, and
+      you shouldn't crash at second config() call or at uninit() without
+      any config() call! To make your life easier, vo_config_count is
+      set to the number of previous config() call, counted from preinit().
+      It's set by the caller (vf_vo.c), you don't have to increase it!
+      So, you can check for vo_config_count>0 in uninit() when freeing
+      resources allocated in config() to avoid crash!
+
+      You should implement VOCTRL_UPDATE_SCREENINFO so that vo_dx, vo_dy,
+      vo_dwidth and vo_dheight are already pre-set to values that take
+      aspect and -geometry into account. It is also necessary to properly
+      support multi-monitor setups (if based on x11_common, w32_common).
+
+    draw_slice(): this displays YV12 pictures (3 planes, one full sized that
+         contains brightness (Y), and 2 quarter-sized which the colour-info
+         (U,V). MPEG codecs (libmpeg2, opendivx) use this. This doesn't have
+         to display the whole frame, only update small parts of it.
+         If this is not supported, it must be signaled in QUERY_FORMAT with
+         VOCAP_NOSLICES.
+
+    draw_frame(): this is the older interface, this displays only complete
+         frames, and can do only packed format (YUY2, RGB/BGR).
+         Win32 codecs use this (DivX, Indeo, etc).
+         If you implement VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE, you do not need to implement draw_frame.
+
+    draw_osd(): this displays subtitles and OSD.
+         It's a bit tricky to use it, since it's a callback-style stuff.
+         It should call vo_draw_text() with screen dimension and your
+         draw_alpha implementation for the pixelformat (function pointer).
+         The vo_draw_text() checks the characters to draw, and calls
+         draw_alpha() for each. As a help, osd.c contains draw_alpha for
+         each pixelformats, use this if possible!
+         Note that if you do not draw directly onto the video you should
+         use vo_draw_text_ext() which allows you to specify the border
+         values etc. needed to draw DVD menu highlights at the correct place.
+         If you do not want to implement this, you can still use -vf
+         expand=osd=1 to draw the OSD, or even implement code to insert
+         this filter automatically.
+         Make sure you set VFCAP_OSD depending on whether you implemented it
+         or not.
+
+         NOTE: This one will be obsolete soon! But it's still useful when
+         you want to do tricks, like rendering osd _after_ hardware scaling
+         (tdfxfb) or render subtitles under of the image (vo_mpegpes, sdl)
+
+         NOTE2: above NOTE is probably wrong, there are currently no plans to
+         obsolete draw_osd, though there is the more advanced EOSD support for
+         ASS subtitles.
+
+    flip_page(): this is called after each frame, this displays the buffer for
+         real. This is 'swapbuffers' when doublebuffering.
+         Try to do as little work here as possible, since that affect jitter/
+         A-V sync.

-Introduction
-============
-
-This file lists all changes that can cause compatibility issues when using
-mpv through the client API (libmpv and ``client.h``). Since the client API
-interfaces to input handling (commands, properties) as well as command line
-options, you should also look at ``interface-changes.rst``.
-
-Normally, changes to the C API that are incompatible to previous iterations
-receive a major version bump (i.e. the first version number is increased),
-while C API additions bump the minor version (i.e. the second number is
-increased). Changes to properties/commands/options may also lead to a minor
-version bump, in particular if they are incompatible.
-
-The version number is the same as used for MPV_CLIENT_API_VERSION (see
-``client.h`` how to convert between major/minor version numbers and the flat
-32 bit integer).
-
-Also, read the section ``Compatibility`` in ``client.h``, and compatibility.rst.
-
-Options, commands, properties
-=============================
-
-Changes to these are not listed here, but in ``interface-changes.rst``. (Before
-client API version 1.17, they were listed here partially.)
-
-This listing includes changes to the bare C API and behavior only, not what
-you can access with them.
-
-API changes
-===========
-
-::
-
- --- mpv 0.40.0 ---
- 2.5    - Deprecate MPV_RENDER_PARAM_AMBIENT_LIGHT. no replacement.
- --- mpv 0.39.0 ---
- 2.4    - mpv_render_param with the MPV_RENDER_PARAM_ICC_PROFILE argument no
-          longer has incorrect assumptions about memory allocation and can be
-          correctly used.
- --- mpv 0.38.0 ---
- 2.3    - partially revert the changes from API version 1.27, remove libmpv as
-          the default VO and move it to the bottom of the auto-probing order.
-          This restores the prior behavior on all platforms other than macOS,
-          but still auto selects libmpv/cocoa-cb on macOS if it was built with
-          support for cocoa-cb.
- --- mpv 0.37.0 ---
- 2.2    - add mpv_time_ns()
- --- mpv 0.36.0 ---
- 2.1    - add mpv_del_property()
- --- mpv 0.35.0 ---
- 2.0    - remove headers/functions of the obsolete opengl_cb API
-        - remove mpv_opengl_init_params.extra_exts field
-        - remove deprecated mpv_detach_destroy. Use mpv_destroy instead.
-        - remove obsolete mpv_suspend and mpv_resume
-        - remove deprecated SCRIPT_INPUT_DISPATCH, PAUSE and UNPAUSE, TRACKS_CHANGED
-          TRACK_SWITCHED, METADATA_UPDATE, CHAPTER_CHANGE events
- --- mpv 0.33.0 ---
- 1.109  - add MPV_RENDER_API_TYPE_SW and related (software rendering API)
-        - deactivate the opengl_cb API (always fails to initialize now)
-          The opengl_cb API was deprecated over 2 years ago. Use the render API
-          instead.
- 1.108  - Deprecate MPV_EVENT_IDLE
-        - add mpv_event_start_file
-        - add the following fields to mpv_event_end_file: playlist_entry_id,
-          playlist_insert_id, playlist_insert_num_entries
-        - add mpv_event_to_node()
-        - add mpv_client_id()
- 1.107  - Remove the deprecated qthelper.hpp. This was obviously not part of the
-          libmpv API, only an "additionally" provided helper, thus this is not
-          considered an API change. If you are maintaining a project that relies
-          on this header, you can simply download this file and adjust the
-          include statement to use it instead:
-
-            https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mpv-player/mpv/v0.32.0/libmpv/qthelper.hpp
-
-          It is a good idea to write better wrappers for your use, though.
- --- mpv 0.31.0 ---
- 1.107  - Deprecate MPV_EVENT_TICK
- --- mpv 0.30.0 ---
- 1.106  - Add cancel_fn to mpv_stream_cb_info
- 1.105  - Fix deadlock problems with MPV_RENDER_PARAM_ADVANCED_CONTROL and if
-          the "vd-lavc-dr" option is enabled (which it is by default).
-          There were no actual API changes.
-          API users on older API versions and mpv releases should set
-          "vd-lavc-dr" to "no" to avoid these issues.
-          API users must still adhere to the tricky rules documented in render.h
-          to avoid other deadlocks.
- 1.104  - Deprecate struct mpv_opengl_drm_params. Replaced by mpv_opengl_drm_params_v2
-        - Deprecate MPV_RENDER_PARAM_DRM_DISPLAY. Replaced by MPV_RENDER_PARAM_DRM_DISPLAY_V2.
- 1.103  - redo handling of async commands
-        - add mpv_event_command and make it possible to return values from
-          commands issued with mpv_command_async() or mpv_command_node_async()
-        - add mpv_abort_async_command()
- 1.102  - rename struct mpv_opengl_drm_osd_size to mpv_opengl_drm_draw_surface_size
-        - rename MPV_RENDER_PARAM_DRM_OSD_SIZE to MPV_RENDER_PARAM_DRM_DRAW_SURFACE_SIZE
- --- mpv 0.29.0 ---
- 1.101  - add MPV_RENDER_PARAM_ADVANCED_CONTROL and related API
-        - add MPV_RENDER_PARAM_NEXT_FRAME_INFO and related symbols
-        - add MPV_RENDER_PARAM_BLOCK_FOR_TARGET_TIME
-        - add MPV_RENDER_PARAM_SKIP_RENDERING
-        - add mpv_render_context_get_info()
- 1.100  - bump API number to avoid confusion with mpv release versions
-        - actually apply the GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay change for the new render
-          API. This also means compatibility for anything but x11 and wayland
-          through the old opengl-cb GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay method is now
-          unsupported.
-        - deprecate mpv_get_wakeup_pipe(). It's complex, but easy to replace
-          using normal API (just set a wakeup callback to a function which
-          writes to a pipe).
-        - add a 1st class hook API, which replaces the hacky mpv_command()
-          based one. The old API is deprecated and will be removed soon. The
-          old API was never meant to be stable, while the new API is.
- 1.29   - the behavior of mpv_terminate_destroy() and mpv_detach_destroy()
-          changes subtly (see documentation in the header file). In particular,
-          mpv_detach_destroy() will not leave the player running in all
-          situations anymore (it gets closer to refcounting).
-        - rename mpv_detach_destroy() to mpv_destroy() (the old function will
-          remain valid as deprecated alias)
-        - add mpv_create_weak_client(), which makes use of above changes
-        - MPV_EVENT_SHUTDOWN is now returned exactly once if a mpv_handle
-          should terminate, instead of spamming the event queue with this event
- 1.28   - deprecate the render opengl_cb API, and replace it with render.h
-          and render_gl.h. The goal is allowing support for APIs other than
-          OpenGL. The old API is emulated with the new API.
-          Likewise, the "opengl-cb" VO is renamed to "libmpv".
-          mpv_get_sub_api() is deprecated along the opengl_cb API.
-          The new API is relatively similar, but not the same. The rough
-          equivalents are:
-            mpv_opengl_cb_init_gl => mpv_render_context_create
-            mpv_opengl_cb_set_update_callback => mpv_render_context_set_update_callback
-            mpv_opengl_cb_draw => mpv_render_context_render
-            mpv_opengl_cb_report_flip => mpv_render_context_report_swap
-            mpv_opengl_cb_uninit_gl => mpv_render_context_free
-          The VO opengl-cb is also renamed to "libmpv".
-          Also, the GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay pseudo extension is not used by the
-          render API anymore, and the old opengl-cb API only handles the "x11"
-          and "wl" names anymore. Support for everything else has been removed.
-          The new render API uses proper API parameters, e.g. for X11 you pass
-          MPV_RENDER_PARAM_X11_DISPLAY directly.
-        - deprecate the qthelper.hpp header file. This provided some C++ helper
-          utility functions for Qt with use of libmpv. There is no reason to
-          keep this in the mpv git repository, nor to make it part of the libmpv
-          API. If you're using this header, you can safely copy it into your
-          project - it uses only libmpv public API. Alternatively, it could be
-          maintained in a separate repository by interested parties.
- 1.27   - make opengl-cb the default VO. This causes a subtle behavior change
-          if the API user called mpv_opengl_cb_init_gl(), but does not set
-          the "vo" option. Before, it would still have used another VO (like
-          on the CLI, e.g. vo=gpu). Now it'll behave as if vo=opengl-cb was
-          used.
- --- mpv 0.28.0 ---
- 1.26   - remove glMPGetNativeDisplay("drm") support
-        - add mpv_opengl_cb_window_pos and mpv_opengl_cb_drm_params and
-          support via glMPGetNativeDisplay() for using it
-        - make --stop-playback-on-init-failure=no the default in libmpv (just
-          like in mpv CLI)
- --- mpv 0.27.0 ---
- 1.25   - remove setting "no-" options via mpv_set_option*(). (See corresponding
-          deprecation in 0.23.0.)
- --- mpv 0.25.0 ---
- 1.24   - add a MPV_ENABLE_DEPRECATED preprocessor symbol, which can be defined
-          by the user to exclude deprecated API symbols from the C headers
- --- mpv 0.23.0 ---
- 1.24   - the deprecated mpv_suspend() and mpv_resume() APIs now do nothing.
- --- mpv 0.22.0 ---
- 1.23   - deprecate setting "no-" options via mpv_set_option*(). For example,
-          instead of "no-video=" you should set "video=no".
-        - do not override the SIGPIPE signal handler anymore. This was done as
-          workaround for the FFmpeg TLS code, which has been fixed long ago.
-        - deprecate mpv_suspend() and mpv_resume(). They will be stubbed out
-          in mpv 0.23.0.
-        - make mpv_set_property() work to some degree before mpv_initialize().
-          It can now be used instead of mpv_set_option().
-        - semi-deprecate mpv_set_option()/mpv_set_option_string(). You should
-          use mpv_set_property() instead. There are some deprecated properties
-          which conflict with some options (see client.h remarks on
-          mpv_set_option()), for which mpv_set_option() might still be required.
-          In future mpv releases, the conflicting deprecated options/properties
-          will be removed, and mpv_set_option() will internally translate API
-          calls to mpv_set_property().
-        - qthelper.hpp: deprecate get_property_variant, set_property_variant,
-          set_option_variant, command_variant, and replace them with
-          get_property, set_property, command.
- --- mpv 0.19.0 ---
- 1.22   - add stream_cb API for custom protocols
- --- mpv 0.18.1 ---
- ----   - remove "status" log level from mpv_request_log_messages() docs. This
-          is 100% equivalent to "v". The behavior is still the same, thus no
-          actual API change.
- --- mpv 0.18.0 ---
- 1.21   - mpv_set_property() changes behavior with MPV_FORMAT_NODE. Before this
-          change it rejected mpv_nodes with format==MPV_FORMAT_STRING if the
-          property was not a string or did not have special mechanisms in place
-          the function failed. Now it always invokes the option string parser,
-          and mpv_node with a basic data type works exactly as if the function
-          is invoked with that type directly. This new behavior is equivalent
-          to mpv_set_option().
-          This also affects the mp.set_property_native() Lua function.
-        - generally, setting choice options/properties with "yes"/"no" options
-          can now be set as MPV_FORMAT_FLAG
-        - reading a choice property as MPV_FORMAT_NODE will now return a
-          MPV_FORMAT_FLAG value if the choice is "yes" (true) or "no" (false)
-          This implicitly affects Lua and JSON IPC interfaces as well.
-        - big changes to vo-cmdline on vo_opengl and vo_opengl_hq (but not
-          vo_opengl_cb): options are now normally not reset, but applied on top
-          of the current options. The special undocumented value "-" still
-          works, but now resets all options to before any vo-cmdline command
-          has been called.
- --- mpv 0.12.0 ---
- 1.20   - deprecate "GL_MP_D3D_interfaces"/"glMPGetD3DInterface", and introduce
-          "GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay"/"glMPGetNativeDisplay" (this is a
-          backwards-compatible rename)
- --- mpv 0.11.0 ---
- --- mpv 0.10.0 ---
- 1.19   - add "GL_MP_D3D_interfaces" pseudo extension to make it possible to
-          use DXVA2 in OpenGL fullscreen mode in some situations
-        - mpv_request_log_messages() now accepts "terminal-default" as parameter
- 1.18   - add MPV_END_FILE_REASON_REDIRECT, and change behavior of
-          MPV_EVENT_END_FILE accordingly
-        - a bunch of interface-changes.rst changes
- 1.17   - mpv_initialize() now blocks SIGPIPE (details see client.h)
- --- mpv 0.9.0 ---
- 1.16   - add mpv_opengl_cb_report_flip()
-        - introduce mpv_opengl_cb_draw() and deprecate mpv_opengl_cb_render()
-        - add MPV_FORMAT_BYTE_ARRAY
- 1.15   - mpv_initialize() will now load config files. This requires setting
-          the "config" and "config-dir" options. In particular, it will load
-          mpv.conf.
-        - minor backwards-compatible change to the "seek" and "screenshot"
-          commands (new flag syntax, old additional args deprecated)
- --- mpv 0.8.0 ---
- 1.14   - add mpv_wait_async_requests()
-        - the --msg-level option changes its native type from a flat string to
-          a key-value list (setting/reading the option as string still works)
- 1.13   - add MPV_EVENT_QUEUE_OVERFLOW
- 1.12   - add class Handle to qthelper.hpp
-        - improve opengl_cb.h API uninitialization behavior, and fix the qml
-          example
-        - add mpv_create_client() function
- 1.11   - add OpenGL rendering interop API - allows an application to combine
-          its own and mpv's OpenGL rendering
-          Warning: this API is not stable yet - anything in opengl_cb.h might
-                   be changed in completely incompatible ways in minor API bumps
- --- mpv 0.7.0 ---
- 1.10   - deprecate/disable everything directly related to script_dispatch
-          (most likely affects nobody)
- 1.9    - add enum mpv_end_file_reason for mpv_event_end_file.reason
-        - add MPV_END_FILE_REASON_ERROR and the mpv_event_end_file.error field
-          for slightly better error reporting on playback failure
-        - add --stop-playback-on-init-failure option, and make it the default
-          behavior for libmpv only
-        - add qthelper.hpp set_option_variant()
-        - mark the following events as deprecated:
-            MPV_EVENT_TRACKS_CHANGED
-            MPV_EVENT_TRACK_SWITCHED
-            MPV_EVENT_PAUSE
-            MPV_EVENT_UNPAUSE
-            MPV_EVENT_METADATA_UPDATE
-            MPV_EVENT_CHAPTER_CHANGE
-          They are handled better with mpv_observe_property() as mentioned in
-          the documentation comments. They are not removed and still work.
- 1.8    - add qthelper.hpp
- 1.7    - add mpv_command_node(), mpv_command_node_async()
- 1.6    - modify "core-idle" property behavior
-        - MPV_EVENT_LOG_MESSAGE now always sends complete lines
-        - introduce numeric log levels (mpv_log_level)
- --- mpv 0.6.0 ---
- 1.5    - change in X11 and "--wid" behavior again. The previous change didn't
-          work as expected, and now the behavior can be explicitly controlled
-          with the "input-x11-keyboard" option. This is only a temporary
-          measure until XEmbed is implemented and confirmed working.
-          Note: in 1.6, "input-x11-keyboard" was renamed to "input-vo-keyboard",
-          although the old option name still works.
- 1.4    - subtle change in X11 and "--wid" behavior
-          (this change was added to 0.5.2, and broke some things, see #1090)
- --- mpv 0.5.0 ---
- 1.3    - add MPV_MAKE_VERSION()
- 1.2    - remove "stream-time-pos" property (no replacement)
- 1.1    - remap dvdnav:// to dvd://
-        - add "--cache-file", "--cache-file-size"
-        - add "--colormatrix-primaries" (and property)
-        - add "primaries" sub-field to image format properties
-        - add "playback-time" property
-        - extend the "--start" option; a leading "+", which was previously
-          insignificant is now significant
-        - add "cache-free" and "cache-used" properties
-        - macOS: the "coreaudio" AO spdif code is split into a separate AO

-CLI and API compatibility policy
-================================
-
-Human users and API users rely on the mpv/libmpv/scripting/IPC interface not
-breaking their use case. On the other hand, active development occasionally
-requires breaking things, such as removing old options or changing options in
-a way that may break.
-
-This document lists rules when, what, and how incompatible changes can be made.
-It's interesting both for mpv developers, who want to change user-visible parts,
-and mpv users, who want to know what is guaranteed to remain stable.
-
-Any of the rules below may be overridden by statements in more specific
-documentation (for example, if the manpage says that a particular option may be
-removed any time, it means that, and the option probably won't even go through
-deprecation).
-
-Additions
----------
-
-Additions are basically always allowed. API users etc. are supposed to deal with
-the possibility that for example new API functions are added. Some parts of the
-API may document how they are extended.
-
-Options, commands, properties, events, hooks (command interface)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-All of these are important for interfacing both with end users and API users
-(which include Lua scripts, libmpv, and the JSON IPC). As such, they constitute
-a large part of the user interface and APIs.
-
-Certain options and commands may have documented default values. These default
-values are considered a part of the API since scripts may already rely on these
-documented behaviors. Changing these defaults are considered incompatible
-changes and must be documented. Undocumented default values do not subject to
-this requirement, and it is recommended to discourage such usage in the related
-documentations if there is a need to frequently change such defaults.
-
-All incompatible changes to this must be declared in interface-changes.rst,
-which include the types of changes, the impact of these changes, and suggested
-actions to address such impact so that the incompatibility is alleviated.
-(This may also list compatible additions, but it's not a requirement.)
-
-Degrees of importance and compatibility preservation
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Critical and central parts of the command interface have the strictest
-requirements. It may not be reasonable to break them, and other means to achieve
-some change have to be found. For example, the "seek" command is a bit of a
-mess, but since changing it would likely affect almost every user, it may be
-impossible to break at least the commonly used syntax. If changed anyway, there
-should be a deprecation period of at least 1 year, during which the command
-still works, and possibly a warning should remain even after this.
-
-Important/often used parts must be deprecated for at least 2 releases before
-they can be broken. There must be at least 1 release where the deprecated
-functionality still works, and a replacement is available (if technically
-reasonable). For example, a feature deprecated in mpv 0.30.0 may be removed in
-mpv 0.32.0. Minor releases do not count towards this.
-
-Under extraordinary circumstances, such as missed incompatible changes that are
-already included in a release, critical security fixes, or a severe shortage of
-developer time to address the known incompatible changes, important/often used
-parts may be broken immediately, but the change must be extensively documented:
-all of the related documentations (including manpage, interface-changes.rst,
-etc., retrospectively modified if applicable) must clearly state the following:
-the fact that the change is a breaking change; the version when the breaking
-change happened; and the reason, impact, and suggested remedy actions.
-
-Less useful parts can be broken immediately, but must come with some sort of
-removal warning.
-
-Parts for debugging and testing may be removed any time, potentially even
-without any sort of documentation.
-
-Currently, the importance of a part is not documented and not even well-defined,
-which is probably a mistake.
-
-Renaming or removing options
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Typically, renaming an option can be done in a compatible way with OPT_REPLACED.
-You may need to check whether the corresponding properties still work (including
-messy details like observing properties for changes).
-
-OPT_REMOVED can be used to inform the user of alternatives or reasons for the
-removal, which is better than an option not found error. Likewise,
-m_option.deprecation_message should be set to something helpful.
-
-Both OPT_REPLACED and OPT_REMOVED can remain in the code for a long time, since
-they're unintrusive and hopefully make incompatible changes less painful for
-users.
-
-Scripting APIs
---------------
-
-This affects internal scripting APIs (currently Lua and JavaScript).
-
-Vaguely the same rules as with the command interface apply. Since there is a
-large number of scripts, an effort should be made to provide compatibility
-for old scripts, but it does not need to be stronger than that of the command
-interface.
-
-Undocumented parts of the scripting APIs are _not_ guaranteed for compatibility.
-This applies especially for internals. Languages like Lua do not have strict
-access control (nor does the mpv code try to emulate any), so if a script
-accesses private parts, and breaks on the next mpv release, it's not mpv's
-problem.
-
-JSON IPC
---------
-
-The JSON IPC is a thin protocol wrapping the libmpv API and the command
-interface. Compatibility-wise, it's about the same as the scripting APIs.
-The JSON protocol commands should remain as compatible as possible, and it
-should probably accept the current way commands are delimited (line breaks)
-forever.
-
-The protocol may accept non-standard JSON extensions, but only standard JSON
-(possibly with restrictions) is guaranteed for compatibility. Clients which want
-to remain compatible should not use any extensions.
-
-CLI
----
-
-Things such as default key bindings do not necessarily require compatibility.
-However, the release notes should be extremely clear on changes to "important"
-key bindings. Bindings which restore the old behavior should be added to
-restore-old-bindings.conf and restore-osc-bindings.conf.
-
-Some option parsing is CLI-only and not available from libmpv or scripting. No
-compatibility guarantees come with them. However, the rules which mpv uses to
-distinguish between options and filenames must remain consistent (if the
-non-deprecated options syntax is used).
-
-Terminal and log output
------------------------
-
-There are no compatibility guarantees for the terminal output, or the text
-logged via ``MPV_EVENT_LOG_MESSAGE`` and similar APIs. In particular, scripts
-invoking mpv CLI are extremely discouraged from trying to parse text output,
-and should use other mechanisms such as the JSON IPC.
-
-Protocols, filters, demuxers, etc.
-----------------------------------
-
-Which of these are present is generally not guaranteed, and can even depend
-on compile time settings.
-
-The filter list and their sub-options are considered part of the
-command-interface.
-
-libmpv C API
-------------
-
-The libmpv client API (such as ``<mpv/client.h>``) mostly gives access to
-the command interface. The API itself (if looked at as a component separate
-from the command interface) is intended to be extremely stable.
-
-All API changes are documented in client-api-changes.rst.
-
-API compatibility
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The API is *always* compatible. Incompatible changes are only allowed on major
-API version changes (see ``MPV_CLIENT_API_VERSION``). A major version change is
-an extremely rare event, which means usually no API symbols are ever removed.
-
-Essentially removing API functions by making them always return an error, or
-making it do nothing is allowed in cases where it is unlikely to break most
-clients, but requires a deprecation period of 2 releases. (This has happened to
-``mpv_suspend()`` for example.)
-
-API symbols can be deprecated. This should be clearly marked in the doxygen
-with ``@deprecated``, and if possible, the affected API symbols should not be
-visible if the API user defines ``MPV_ENABLE_DEPRECATED`` to 0.
-
-ABI compatibility
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The ABI must never be broken, except on major API version changes. For example,
-constants don't change their values.
-
-Structs are tricky. If a struct can be allocated by a user (such as ``mpv_node``),
-no fields can be added. (Unless it's an union, and the addition does not change
-the offset or alignment of any of the fields or the struct itself. This has
-happened to ``mpv_node`` in the past.) If a struct is allocated by libmpv only,
-new fields can be appended to the end (for example ``mpv_event``).
-
-The ABI is only backward compatible. This means if a host application is linked
-to an older libmpv, and libmpv is updated to a newer version, it will still
-work (as in not causing any undefined behavior).
-
-Forward compatibility (an application would work with an older libmpv than it
-was linked to) is not required.

-# Compiling for Windows
-
-Compiling for Windows is supported using GNU-like compilers (GCC/Clang). Clang
-is compatible with both the ``w64-windows-gnu`` [MinGW-w64](https://www.mingw-w64.org/)
-and ``pc-windows-msvc`` [Windows SDK](https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windows-sdk)
-targets. It supports the production of both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries and is
-suitable for building on Windows as well as cross-compiling from Linux and Cygwin.
-
-Although it is possible to build a complete MinGW-w64 toolchain yourself, there
-are build environments and scripts available to simplify the process, such as
-MSYS2 on Windows or a packaged toolchain provided by your favorite Linux
-distribution. Note that MinGW-w64 environments included in Linux distributions
-can vary in versions. As a general guideline, mpv only supports the MinGW-w64
-toolchain version included in the latest Ubuntu LTS release.
-
-mpv employs Meson for building, and the process is the same as any standard Meson
-compilation.
-
-For the most up-to-date reference on build scripts, you can refer to
-[build.yml](https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.yml),
-which builds and tests all supported configurations: ``MinGW-w64``, ``Windows SDK``,
-and ``MSYS2`` builds.
-
-## Cross-compilation
-
-When cross-compiling, it is recommended to use a Meson ``--cross-file`` to set up the
-cross-compiling environment. For a basic example, please refer to
-[Cross-compilation](https://mesonbuild.com/Cross-compilation.html).
-
-Alternatively, consider using [mpv-winbuild-cmake](https://github.com/shinchiro/mpv-winbuild-cmake),
-which bootstraps a MinGW-w64 toolchain and builds mpv along with its dependencies.
-
-### Example with Meson
-
-1. Create ``cross-file.txt`` with definitions for your toolchain and target platform.
-   Refer to [x86_64-w64-mingw32.txt](https://mesonbuild.com/Cross-compilation.html)
-   as a directly usable example.
-   - **Important**: Beware of pkg-config usage. By default, it uses build machine
-     files for dependency detection, even when ``--cross-file`` is used. It must
-     be configured correctly. Refer to ``pkg_config_libdir`` and ``sys_root``
-     in the [documentation](https://mesonbuild.com/Cross-compilation.html#defining-the-environment)
-     for proper setup. **In this example pkg-config is not used/required.**
-2. Initialize subprojects. This step is optional; other methods are also
-   available to provide the necessary dependencies.
-
-   ``` bash
-   # Update the subprojects database from Meson's WrapDB.
-   meson wrap update-db

-   meson setup -Ddefault_library=static -Dprefer_static=true \
-               -Dc_link_args='-static' -Dcpp_link_args='-static' \
-               --cross-file cross-file.txt build
-
-   ninja -C build mpv.exe mpv.com
-   ```
-
-   This will produce fully portabiel, statically linked, ``mpv.exe`` and ``mpv.com``
-   binaries.
-
-#### Building libmpv
-
-- To also build ``libmpv``, execute the following commands:
-
-   ``` bash
-   # For a static library
-   meson configure build -Dlibmpv=true -Ddefault_library=static
-   ninja -C build libmpv.a
-
-   # For a shared library
-   meson configure build -Dlibmpv=true -Ddefault_library=shared
-   ninja -C build libmpv-2.dll
-   ```
-
-- Depending on the use case, you might want to use ``-Dgpl=false`` and review
-  similar options for subprojects.
-- If any of Meson's subprojects are not linked statically, you might need to
-  specify options like the following example for ffmpeg:
-  ``-Dffmpeg:default_library=static``.
-
-#### Enabling more mpv features
-
-The process above produces a basic mpv build. You can enable additional features.
-Check the Meson
-[WrapDB packages](https://mesonbuild.com/Wrapdb-projects.html) for available
-dependencies or by providing them through other means.
-
-Enhancing mpv with more features is as simple as adding more arguments to the
-Meson setup command, for example:
-
-``` bash
--Dlua=enabled -Djavascript=enabled -Dlcms2=enabled -Dlibplacebo:lcms=enabled
-```
-
-they will be automatically downloaded and built by Meson.
-
-## Native Compilation with Clang (Windows SDK Build)
-
-1. Install [Build Tools for Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2022)
-   or the full [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#visual-studio-community-2022):
-   - From the installer, select the necessary components:
-      - Clang compiler for Windows
-      - C++ CMake tools for Windows
-      - Windows SDK
-   - Activate the developer shell. The target and host architecture must match
-      (e.g. `amd64` for x86_64, `arm64` for ARM64):
-      ```
-      & "<Visual Studio Path>\Common7\Tools\Launch-VsDevShell.ps1" -Arch amd64 -HostArch amd64 -SkipAutomaticLocation | Out-Null
-      ```
-2. Install the remaining build tools that are not part of the Visual Studio installer:
-   - [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com/Getting-meson.html), the build system.
-   - [NASM](https://www.nasm.us/), required to assemble the hand-written assembly
-     in FFmpeg, dav1d and aom. Make sure it is in `PATH`.
-   - [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) (via `rustup`), required to
-     build mpv's Rust components and the `subrandr` subproject. A **nightly**
-     toolchain is needed, as the build relies on Cargo's unstable `-C` option:
-
-     ```powershell
-     rustup default nightly
-     ```
-
-3. The following build script utilizes the Meson subprojects system to build mpv and its dependencies.
-   To make sure all dependency versions are up-to-date, update the subprojects database from Meson's WrapDB.
-   Also explicitly download several wraps as some nested projects may pull older versions of them.
-   ```
-   meson wrap update-db
-
-   meson wrap install expat
-   meson wrap install harfbuzz
-   meson wrap install libpng
-   meson wrap install zlib
-   ```
-4. Set environment variables so Meson uses the Clang/LLVM toolchain, or pass an
-equivalent `--native-file` to Meson.
-   ```powershell
-   $env:CC = 'clang'
-   $env:CXX = 'clang++'
-   $env:CC_LD = 'lld-link'
-   $env:CXX_LD = 'lld-link'
-   $env:RUST_LD = 'lld-link'
-   $env:WINDRES = 'llvm-rc'
-   ```
-   Note that some dependencies (e.g. LuaJIT) may require `sed` to configure. Fortunately, it is already bundled in
-   [Git for Windows](https://www.git-scm.com/download/win):
-   ```powershell
-   $env:PATH += ';<Git Path>\usr\bin'
-   ```
-5. Execute [ci\build-win32.ps1](https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/ci/build-win32.ps1). Refer to the script for more details.
-
-This process will produce a fully static ``mpv.exe`` and ``mpv.com``, as well as
-a static ``libmpv.a``.
-
-## Native Compilation with MSYS2
-
-For Windows developers seeking a quick setup, MSYS2 is an effective tool for
-compiling mpv natively on a Windows machine. The MSYS2 repositories provide
-binary packages for most of mpv's dependencies, simplifying the process to
-primarily involve building mpv itself.
-
-### Installing MSYS2
-
-1. Follow the installation steps from [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/).
-2. Initiate one of the [Environments](https://www.msys2.org/docs/environments/),
-   with the CLANG64 (``clang64.exe``) being the recommended option.
-   **Note:** This environment is distinct from the MSYS2 shell that opens
-   automatically after the final installation dialog. You must close that
-   initial shell and open a new one for the appropriate environment.
-
-### Updating MSYS2
-
-For guidance on updating MSYS2, please refer to the official documentation:
-[Updating MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/docs/updating/).
-
-### Installing mpv Dependencies
-
-``` bash
-# Install pacboy and git
-pacman -S pactoys git
-
-# Install MSYS2 build dependencies and a MinGW-w64 compiler
-pacboy -S python pkgconf cc meson
-
-# Install key dependencies. libass and lcms2 are also included as dependencies
-# of ffmpeg.
-pacboy -S ffmpeg libjpeg-turbo libplacebo luajit vulkan-headers
-```
-
-### Building mpv
-
-To compile and install mpv, execute the following commands.
-The binaries will be installed in the directory ``/$MSYSTEM_PREFIX/bin``.
-
-```bash
-# Set up the build directory with the desired configuration
-meson setup build -Dlibmpv=true --prefix=$MSYSTEM_PREFIX
-
-# Compile
-meson compile -C build
-
-# Optionally, install the compiled binaries
-meson install -C build
-```
-
-## Running mpv
-
-Depending on your build configuration, ``mpv.exe`` may rely on external
-libraries. To create a portable package, you will need to include these
-dependencies as well. The quickest way to determine which libraries are needed
-is to run ``mpv.exe`` and note any error messages that list the required ``.dll``
-files. You can find these libraries in the sysroot used for compilation, such as
-``/clang64/bin/`` in MSYS2.
-
-## Linking libmpv with MSVC Programs
-
-Building mpv/libmpv directly with the MSVC compiler (cl.exe) is not supported
-due to differences in compiler flags. Our build system is designed specifically
-for GNU-like compiler drivers. However, you can still build programs in
-Visual Studio and link them with libmpv.
-
-When ``libmpv`` is built with the recommended Clang/``lld-link`` toolchain,
-``lld-link`` emits an import library (``mpv.lib``) next to the DLL in the build
-directory. Add that ``mpv.lib`` to your MSVC project.
-
-To generate an import library from a DLL yourself, first create a ``.def`` file
-listing its exports. There are several ways to do this. One is ``gendef``, which
-writes a ``.def``, based on DLL.
-
-```bash
-gendef libmpv-2.dll
-```
-
-Then build the import library from it. ``/name`` must match the DLL filename, and
-``/machine`` must match the DLL's architecture (e.g. ``x64`` or ``arm64``):
-
-```bash
-lib /def:libmpv-2.def /name:libmpv-2.dll /out:mpv.lib /machine:x64
-```
-
-**Note:** Static linking is only feasible with matching compilers. For instance,
-if you build with Clang in Visual Studio, static linking is possible.

-How to contribute
-=================
-
-General
--------
-
-The main contact for mpv development is IRC, specifically #mpv
-and #mpv-devel on Libera.chat. GitHub is used for code review and
-long term discussions.
-
-Sending patches
----------------
-
-- Make a GitHub pull request, or send a link to a plaintext patch created with
-  ``git format-patch``.
-- Plain diffs posted as pastebins are not acceptable! (Especially if the http
-  link returns HTML.) They only cause extra work for everyone, because they lack
-  commit message and authorship information.
-- Never send patches to any of the developers email addresses.
-- If your changes are not supposed to be merged immediately, mark them as
-  "[RFC]" in the commit message or the pull request title.
-- Be sure to test your changes. If you didn't, please say so in the commit
-  message and the pull request text.
-
-Copyright of contributions
---------------------------
-
-- The copyright belongs to contributors. The project is a collaborative work. By
-  sending your changes, you agree to license your contributions according to the
-  requirements of this project.
-- All new code must be LGPLv2.1+ licensed, or come with the implicit agreement
-  that it will be relicensed to LGPLv2.1+ later (see ``Copyright`` in the
-  repository root directory).
-- 100% compatible licenses are allowed too.
-- Changes in files with more liberal licenses (such as BSD, MIT, or ISC) are
-  assumed to be dual-licensed under LGPLv2.1+ and the license indicated in the
-  file header.
-- You must be either the exclusive author of the patch, or acknowledge all
-  authors involved in the commit message. If you take 3rd party code, authorship
-  and copyright must be properly acknowledged. If you're making changes on
-  behalf of your employer, and the employer owns the copyright, you must mention
-  this. If the license of the code is not LGPLv2.1+, you must mention this.
-- These license statements are legally binding.
-- Don't use fake names (something that looks like an actual name, and may be
-  someone else's name, but is not your legal name). Using a pseudonym is
-  allowed if it can be used to identify or contact you, even if whatever
-  account you used to submit the patch dies.
-- Do not add your name to the license header. This convention is not used by
-  this project, and neither copyright law nor any of the used licenses require
-  it.
-
-Write good commit messages
---------------------------
-
-- Write informative commit messages. Use present tense to describe the
-  situation with the patch applied, and past tense for the situation before
-  the change.
-- The subject line (the first line in a commit message) must contain a
-  prefix identifying the sub system, followed by a short description what
-  impact this commit has. This subject line and the commit message body
-  must not be longer than 72 characters per line, because it messes up the
-  output of many git tools otherwise.
-
-  For example, you fixed a crash in af_volume.c:
-
-  - Bad: ``fixed the bug (wtf?)``
-  - Good: ``af_volume: fix crash due to null pointer access``
-
-  Having a prefix gives context, and is especially useful when trying to find
-  a specific change by looking at the history, or when running ``git blame``.
-
-  Sample prefixes: ``vo_gpu: ...``, ``command: ...``, ``DOCS/input: ...``,
-  ``TOOLS/osxbundle: ...``, ``osc.lua: ...``, etc. You can always check the git
-  log for commits which modify specific files to see which prefixes are used.
-
-- The first word after the ``:`` is lower case.
-- Don't end the subject line with a ``.``.
-- Put an empty line between the subject line and the commit message.
-  If this is missing, it will break display in common git tools.
-- The body of the commit message (everything else after the subject line) must
-  be as informative as possible and contain everything that isn't obvious. Don't
-  hesitate to dump as much information as you can - it doesn't cost you
-  anything. Put some effort into it. If someone finds a bug months or years
-  later, and finds that it's caused by your commit (even though your commit was
-  supposed to fix another bug), it would be bad if there wasn't enough
-  information to test the original bug. The old bug might be reintroduced while
-  fixing the new bug.
-
-  The commit message must be wrapped on 72 characters per line, because git
-  tools usually do not break text automatically. On the other hand, you do not
-  need to break text that would be unnatural to break (like data for test cases,
-  or long URLs).
-- Another summary of good conventions: https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/
-
-Split changes into multiple commits
------------------------------------
-
-- Follow git good practices, and split independent changes into several commits.
-  It's usually OK to put them into a single pull request.
-- Try to separate cosmetic and functional changes. It's ok to make a few
-  additional cosmetic changes in the same file you're working on. But don't do
-  something like reformatting a whole file, and hiding an actual functional
-  change in the same commit.
-- Splitting changes does _not_ mean that you should make them as fine-grained
-  as possible. Commits should form logical steps in development. The way you
-  split changes is important for code review and analyzing bugs.
-
-Always squash fixup commits when making changes to pull requests
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-- If you make fixup commits to your pull request, you should generally squash
-  them with "git rebase -i". We prefer to have pull requests in a merge
-  ready state.
-- We don't squash-merge (nor do we use GitHub's feature that does this) because
-  pull requests with multiple commits are perfectly legitimate, and the only
-  thing that makes sense in non-trivial cases.
-- With complex pull requests, it *may* make sense to keep them separate, but
-  they should be clearly marked as such. Reviewing commits is generally easier
-  with fixups squashed.
-- Reviewers are encouraged to look at individual commits instead of GitHub's
-  "changes from all commits" view (which just encourages bad git and review
-  practices).
-
-Touching user-visible parts may require updating the mpv docs
--------------------------------------------------------------
-
-- Most user-visible things are normally documented in DOCS/man/. If your commit
-  touches documented behavior, list of sub-options, etc., you need to adjust the
-  documentation.
-- These changes usually go into the same commit that changes the code.
-- Changes to command line options (addition/modification/removal) must be
-  documented in options.rst.
-- Changes to input properties or input commands must be documented in input.rst.
-- Changes to the libmpv API must be reflected in the libmpv's headers doxygen,
-  and in client-api-changes.rst.
-
-Interface change policy
------------------------
-
-- All incompatible changes to the user interface (options, properties, commands)
-  must be documented by making a new text file with a txt extension containing a
-  small note in the DOCS/interface-changes directory.
-- The name of the file should be brief and related to the commit that makes the
-  change. The content of the file should begin with the type of the change
-  (add, remove, deprecate, change, rename, etc.). If the file contains multiple
-  changes, the change which causes the most serious compatibility issues should
-  be placed first.
-- Grouping multiple related changes in the same file is also OK. Just be sure to
-  put each separate change on a different line.
-- Documenting additions in DOCS/interface-changes is optional but encouraged.
-- interface-changes.rst is never directly updated except when making new major
-  releases.
-- See DOCS/interface-changes/example.txt for an example.
-
-Code formatting
----------------
-
-mpv uses C11 with K&R formatting, with some exceptions.
-
-- Use the K&R indent style.
-- Use 4 spaces of indentation, never use tabs (except in Makefiles).
-- Add a single space between keywords and binary operators. There are some other
-  cases where spaces must be added. Example:
-
-    ```C
-    if ((a * b) > c) {
-        // code
-        some_function(a, b, c);
-    }
-    ```
-- Break lines on 80 columns. There is a hard limit of 100 columns. You may ignore
-  this limit if there's a strong case that not breaking the line will increase
-  readability. Going over 100 columns might provoke endless discussions about
-  whether such a limit is needed or not, so avoid it.
-- If the body of an if/for/while statement has more than 1 physical lines, then
-  always add braces, even if they're technically redundant.
-
-  Bad:
-
-    ```C
-    if (a)
-        // do something if b
-        if (b)
-            do_something();
-    ```
-
-  Good:
-
-    ```C
-    if (a) {
-        // do something if b
-        if (b)
-            do_something();
-    }
-    ```
-- If the if has an else branch, both branches must use braces, even if they're
-  technically redundant.
-
-  Example:
-
-    ```C
-    if (a) {
-        one_line();
-    } else {
-        one_other_line();
-    }
-    ```
-- If an if condition spans multiple physical lines, then put the opening brace
-  for the if body on the next physical line. (Also, preferably always add a
-  brace, even if technically none is needed.)
-
-  Example:
-
-    ```C
-    if (very_long_condition_a &&
-        very_long_condition_b)
-    {
-        code();
-    } else {
-        ...
-    }
-    ```
-
-  (If the if body is simple enough, this rule can be skipped.)
-- Remove any trailing whitespace.
-- Do not make stray whitespaces changes.
-
-Header #include statement order
--------------------------------
-
-The order of ``#include`` statements in the source code is not very consistent.
-New code must follow the following conventions:
-
-- Put standard includes (``#include <stdlib.h>`` etc.) on the top,
-- then after a blank line, add library includes (``#include <zlib.h>`` etc.)
-- then after a blank line, add internal includes (``#include "player/core.h"``)
-- sort them alphabetically within these sections
-
-General coding
---------------
-
-- Use C11. Also freely make use of C11 features if it's appropriate, but do not
-  use VLA and complex number types.
-- Don't use non-standard language (such as GNU C-only features). In some cases
-  they may be warranted, if they are optional (such as attributes enabling
-  printf-like format string checks). "#pragma once" is allowed as an exception.
-  But in general, standard C11 must be used.
-- The same applies to libc functions. We have to be Windows-compatible too. Use
-  functions guaranteed by C11 or POSIX only, unless your use is guarded by a
-  configure check. Be mindful of MinGW-specifics since C11 support is not always
-  guaranteed.
-- Prefer fusing declaration and initialization, rather than putting declarations
-  on the top of a block. Obvious data flow is more important than avoiding
-  mixing declarations and statements, which is just a C90 artifact.
-- If you add features that require intrusive changes, discuss them on the dev
-  channel first. There might be a better way to add a feature and it can avoid
-  wasted work.
-- Newly added code for any Apple Platform (macOS, iOS, etc), that uses Cocoa or
-  any other object-oriented Framework or API, should be written in Swift instead
-  of Objective-C. This also includes complete rewrites/refactors of existing
-  code. Plain C API usages may stay as C, but can be written in Swift. Existing
-  Objective-C code can stay as is, though Swift rewrites are welcome.
-
-AI-assisted Contributions
--------------------------
-
-If you have used an AI/LLM for your contribution, you must disclose this in the
-PR description. Such contributions are not forbidden, but the submitter takes
-full responsibility for the code changes. This includes having full
-understanding of the code (knowing what was changed and why) and the ability to
-participate in the code review process with human-written responses. This also
-includes confirming that the code can be submitted under the same license as the
-relevant files (usually LGPLv2 or GPLv2).
-
-Clearly vibe-coded patches will not be considered.
-
-Code of Conduct
----------------
-
-Please note that this project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct.
-By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.
-The Contributor Code of Conduct can be found here:
-https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/2/0/code_of_conduct/
-
-Rules for git push access
--------------------------
-
-Push access to the main git repository is handed out on an arbitrary basis. If
-you got access, the following rules must be followed:
-
-- You are expected to follow the general development rules as outlined in this
-  whole document.
-- You must be present on the IRC dev channel when you push something.
-- Anyone can push small fixes: typo corrections, small/obvious/uncontroversial
-  bug fixes, edits to the user documentation or code comments, and so on.
-- You can freely make changes to parts of the code which you maintain. For
-  larger changes, it's recommended to let others review the changes first.
-- You automatically maintain code if you wrote or modified most of it before
-  (e.g. you made larger changes to it before, did partial or full rewrites, did
-  major bug fixes, or you're the original author of the code). If there is more
-  than one maintainer, you may need to come to an agreement with the others how
-  to handle this to avoid conflict.
-- If you make a pull requests (especially if it's to code you maintain), and you
-  want reviews, explicitly ping the people from which you expect reviews.
-- As a maintainer, you can approve pull requests by others to "your" code.
-- If you approve or merge 3rd party changes, make sure they follow the general
-  development rules.
-- Changes to user interface and public API must always be approved by the
-  project leader.
-- Seasoned project members are allowed to revert commits that broke the build,
-  or broke basic functionality in a catastrophic way, and the developer who
-  broke it is unavailable. (Depending on severity.)
-- Adhere to the CoC.
-- The project leader is not bound by these rules.

+Cross compiling mpv to Windows is supported with MinGW-w64. This can be used to
+produce both 32 bit and 64 bit executables. MinGW-w64 is available from
+http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net.
+
+You have to run mpv's configure with these arguments:
+    ./configure --enable-cross-compile --target=i686-w64-mingw32
+
+Using mingw-w64-cmake to setup a MinGW-w64 environment is recommended (this will
+also build mpv and its dependencies): https://github.com/lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake
+
+Alternatively, use MXE: http://mxe.cc
+
+Warning: the original MinGW (http://www.mingw.org) is unsupported.
+
+Note that MinGW environments included in Linux distributions are often broken,
+outdated and useless, and usually don't use MinGW-w64.
+
+Example with MXE
+================
+
+# Download MXE. Note that compiling the required packages requires about 1 GB
+# or more!
+
+cd /opt

-EDL files
-=========
-
-EDL files basically concatenate ranges of video/audio from multiple source
-files into a single continuous virtual file. Each such range is called a
-segment, and consists of source file, source offset, and segment length.
-
-For example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    f1.mkv,10,20
-    f2.mkv
-    f1.mkv,40,10
-
-This would skip the first 10 seconds of the file f1.mkv, then play the next
-20 seconds, then switch to the file f2.mkv and play all of it, then switch
-back to f1.mkv, skip to the 40 second mark, and play 10 seconds, and then
-stop playback. The difference to specifying the files directly on command
-line (and using ``--{ --start=10 --length=20 f1.mkv --}`` etc.) is that the
-virtual EDL file appears as a virtual timeline (like a single file), instead
-as a playlist.
-
-The general simplified syntax is::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    <filename>
-    <filename>,<start in seconds>,<length in seconds>
-
-If the start time is omitted, 0 is used. If the length is omitted, the
-estimated remaining duration of the source file is used.
-
-Note::
-
-    Usage of relative or absolute paths as well as any protocol prefixes may be
-    prevented for security reasons.
-
-
-Syntax of mpv EDL files
-=======================
-
-Generally, the format is relatively strict. No superfluous whitespace (except
-empty lines and commented lines) are allowed. You must use UNIX line breaks.
-
-The first line in the file must be ``# mpv EDL v0``. This designates that the
-file uses format version 0, which is not frozen yet and may change any time.
-(If you need a stable EDL file format, make a feature request. Likewise, if
-you have suggestions for improvements, it's not too late yet.)
-
-The rest of the lines belong to one of these classes:
-
-1) An empty or commented line. A comment starts with ``#``, which must be the
-   first character in the line. The rest of the line (up until the next line
-   break) is ignored. An empty line has 0 bytes between two line feed bytes.
-2) A header entry if the line starts with ``!``.
-3) A segment entry in all other cases.
-
-Each segment entry consists of a list of named or unnamed parameters.
-Parameters are separated with ``,``. Named parameters consist of a name,
-followed by ``=``, followed by the value. Unnamed parameters have only a
-value, and the name is implicit from the parameter position.
-
-Syntax::
-
-    segment_entry ::= <param> ( <param> ',' )*
-    param         ::= [ <name> '=' ] ( <value> | '%' <number> '%' <valuebytes> )
-
-The ``name`` string can consist of any characters, except ``=%,;\n!``. The
-``value`` string can consist of any characters except of ``,;\n!``.
-
-The construct starting with ``%`` allows defining any value with arbitrary
-contents inline, where ``number`` is an integer giving the number of bytes in
-``valuebytes``. If a parameter value contains disallowed characters, it has to
-be guarded by a length specifier using this syntax.
-
-The parameter name defines the meaning of the parameter:
-
-1) ``file``, the source file to use for this segment.
-2) ``start``, a time value that specifies the start offset into the source file.
-3) ``length``, a time value that specifies the length of the segment.
-
-See the section below for the format of timestamps.
-
-Unnamed parameters carry implicit names. The parameter position determines
-which of the parameters listed above is set. For example, the second parameter
-implicitly uses the name ``start``.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    %18%filename,with,.mkv,10,length=20,param3=%13%value,escaped,param4=value2
-
-this sets ``file`` to ``filename,with,.mkv``, ``start`` to ``10``, ``length``
-to ``20``, ``param3`` to ``value,escaped``, ``param4`` to ``value2``.
-
-Instead of line breaks, the character ``;`` can be used. Line feed bytes and
-``;`` are treated equally.
-
-Header entries start with ``!`` as first character after a line break. Header
-entries affect all other file entries in the EDL file. Their format is highly
-implementation specific. They should generally follow the file header, and come
-before any file entries.
-
-Disabling chapter generation and copying
-========================================
-
-By default, chapters from the source ranges are copied to the virtual file's
-chapters. Also, a chapter is inserted after each range. This can be disabled
-with the ``no_chapters`` header.
-
-Example::
-
-    !no_chapters
-
-
-MP4 DASH
-========
-
-This is a header that helps implementing DASH, although it only provides a low
-level mechanism.
-
-If this header is set, the given url designates an mp4 init fragment. It's
-downloaded, and every URL in the EDL is prefixed with the init fragment on the
-byte stream level. This is mostly for use by mpv's internal ytdl support. The
-ytdl script will call youtube-dl, which in turn actually processes DASH
-manifests. It may work only for this very specific purpose and fail to be
-useful in other scenarios. It can be removed or changed in incompatible ways
-at any times.
-
-Example::
-
-    !mp4_dash,init=url
-
-The ``url`` is encoded as parameter value as defined in the general EDL syntax.
-It's expected to point to an "initialization fragment", which will be prefixed
-to every entry in the EDL on the byte stream level.
-
-The current implementation will
-
-- ignore stream start times
-- use durations as hint for seeking only
-- not adjust source timestamps
-- open and close segments (i.e. fragments) as needed
-- not add segment boundaries as chapter points
-- require full compatibility between all segments (same codec etc.)
-
-Another header part of this mechanism is ``no_clip``. This header is similar
-to ``mp4_dash``, but does not include on-demand opening/closing of segments,
-and does not support init segments. It also exists solely to support internal
-ytdl requirements. Using ``no_clip`` with segments is not recommended and
-probably breaks. ``mp4_dash`` already implicitly does a variant of ``no_clip``.
-
-The ``mp4_dash`` and ``no_clip`` headers are not part of the core EDL format.
-They may be changed or removed at any time, depending on mpv's internal
-requirements.
-
-Separate files for tracks
-=========================
-
-The special ``new_stream`` header lets you specify separate parts and time
-offsets for separate tracks. This can for example be used to source audio and
-video track from separate files.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    video.mkv
-    !new_stream
-    audio.mkv
-
-This adds all tracks from both files to the virtual track list. Upon playback,
-the tracks will be played at the same time, instead of appending them. The files
-can contain more than 1 stream; the apparent effect is the same as if the second
-part after the ``!new_stream`` part were in a separate ``.edl`` file and added
-with ``--external-file``.
-
-Note that all metadata between the stream sets created by ``new_stream`` is
-disjoint. Global metadata is taken from the first part only.
-
-In context of mpv, this is redundant to the ``--audio-file`` and
-``--external-file`` options, but (as of this writing) has the advantage that
-this will use a unified cache for all streams.
-
-The ``new_stream`` header is not part of the core EDL format. It may be changed
-or removed at any time, depending on mpv's internal requirements.
-
-If the first ``!new_stream`` is redundant, it is ignored. This is the same
-example as above::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    !new_stream
-    video.mkv
-    !new_stream
-    audio.mkv
-
-Note that ``!new_stream`` must be the first header. Whether the parser accepts
-(i.e. ignores) or rejects other headers before that is implementation specific.
-
-Track metadata
-==============
-
-The special ``track_meta`` header can set some specific metadata fields of the
-current ``!new_stream`` partition. The tags are applied to all tracks within
-the partition. It is not possible to set the metadata for individual tracks (the
-feature was needed only for single-track media).
-
-It provides following parameters change track metadata:
-
-``lang``
-    Set the language tag.
-
-``title``
-    Set the title tag.
-
-``byterate``
-    Number of bytes per second this stream uses. (Purely informational.)
-
-``program_id``
-    Assign this track to a program (integer, default: -1 meaning unset).
-
-``index``
-    The numeric index of the track this should map to (default: -1). This is
-    the 0-based index of the virtual stream as seen by the player, enumerating
-    all audio/video/subtitle streams. If nothing matches, this is silently
-    discarded. The special index -1 (the default) has two meanings: if there
-    was a previous meta data entry (either ``!track_meta`` or ``!delay_open``
-    element since the last ``!new_stream``), then this element manipulates
-    the previous meta data entry. If there was no previous entry, a new meta
-    data entry that matches all streams is created.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    !track_meta,lang=bla,title=blabla
-    file.mkv
-    !new_stream
-    !track_meta,title=ducks
-    sub.srt
-
-If ``file.mkv`` has an audio and a video stream, both will use ``blabla`` as
-title. The subtitle stream will use ``ducks`` as title.
-
-The ``track_meta`` header is not part of the core EDL format. It may be changed
-or removed at any time, depending on mpv's internal requirements.
-
-Global metadata
-===============
-
-The special ``global_tags`` header can set metadata fields (aka tags) of the EDL
-file. This metadata is supposed to be informational, much like for example ID3
-tags in audio files. Due to lack of separation of different kinds of metadata it
-is unspecified what names are allowed, how they are interpreted, and whether
-some of them affect playback functionally. (Much of this is unfortunately
-inherited from FFmpeg. Another consequence of this is that FFmpeg "normalized"
-tags are recognized, or stuff like replaygain tags.)
-
-Example::
-
-    !global_tags,title=bla,something_arbitrary=even_more_arbitrary
-
-Any parameter names are allowed. Repeated use of this adds to the tag list. If
-``!new_stream`` is used, the location doesn't matter.
-
-May possibly be ignored in some cases, such as delayed media opening.
-
-Delayed media opening
-=====================
-
-The special ``delay_open`` header can be used to open the media URL of the
-stream only when the track is selected for the first time. This is supposed to
-be an optimization to speed up opening of a remote stream if there are many
-tracks for whatever reasons.
-
-This has various tricky restrictions, and also will defer failure to open a
-stream to "later". By design, it's supposed to be used for single-track streams.
-
-Using multiple segments requires you to specify all offsets and durations (also
-it was never tested whether it works at all). Interaction with ``mp4_dash`` may
-be strange.
-
-You can describe multiple sub-tracks by using multiple ``delay_open`` headers
-before the same source URL. (If there are multiple sub-tracks of the same media
-type, then the mapping to the real stream is probably rather arbitrary.) If the
-source contains tracks not described, a warning is logged when the delayed
-opening happens, and the track is hidden.
-
-This has the following parameters:
-
-``media_type``
-    Required. Must be set to ``video``, ``audio``, or ``sub``. (Other tracks in
-    the opened URL are ignored.)
-
-``codec``
-    The mpv codec name that is expected. Although mpv tries to initialize a
-    decoder with it currently (and will fail track selection if it does not
-    initialize successfully), it is not used for decoding - decoding still uses
-    the information retrieved from opening the actual media information, and may
-    be a different codec (you should try to avoid this, of course). Defaults to
-    ``null``.
-
-    Above also applies for similar fields such as ``w``.  These fields are
-    mostly to help with user track pre-selection.
-
-``flags``
-    A ``+`` separated list of boolean flags. Currently defined flags:
-
-        ``default``
-            Set the default track flag.
-
-        ``forced``
-            Set the forced track flag.
-
-    Other values are ignored after triggering a warning.
-
-``w``, ``h``
-    For video codecs: expected video size. See ``codec`` for details.
-
-``fps``
-    For video codecs: expected video framerate, as integer. (The rate is usually
-    only crudely reported, and it makes no sense to expect exact values.)
-
-``samplerate``
-    For audio codecs: expected sample rate, as integer.
-
-The ``delay_open`` header is not part of the core EDL format. It may be changed
-or removed at any time, depending on mpv's internal requirements.
-
-Timestamp format
-================
-
-Currently, time values are floating point values in seconds.
-
-As an extension, you can set the ``timestamps=chapters`` option. If this option
-is set, timestamps have to be integers, and refer to chapter numbers, starting
-with 0. The default value for this parameter is ``seconds``, which means the
-time is as described in the previous paragraph.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    file.mkv,2,4,timestamps=chapters
-
-Plays chapter 3 and ends with the start of chapter 7 (4 chapters later).
-
-Implicit chapters
-=================
-
-mpv will add one chapter per segment entry to the virtual timeline.
-
-By default, the chapter's titles will match the entries' filenames.
-You can override set the ``title`` option to override the chapter title for
-that segment.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    cap.ts,5,240
-    OP.mkv,0,90,title=Show Opening
-
-The virtual timeline will have two chapters, one called "cap.ts" from 0-240s
-and a second one called "Show Opening" from 240-330s.
-
-Entry which defines the track layout
-====================================
-
-Normally, you're supposed to put only files with compatible layouts into an EDL
-file. However, at least the mpv implementation accepts entries that use
-different codecs, or even have a different number of audio/video/subtitle
-tracks. In this case, it's not obvious, which virtual tracks the EDL show should
-expose when being played.
-
-Currently, mpv will apply an arbitrary heuristic which tracks the EDL file
-should expose.
-
-You can set the ``layout`` option to ``this`` to make a specific entry define
-the track layout.
-
-Example::
-
-    # mpv EDL v0
-    file_with_2_streams.ts,5,240
-    file_with_5_streams.mkv,0,90,layout=this
-
-The way the different virtual EDL tracks are associated with the per-segment
-ones is highly implementation-defined, and uses a heuristic. If a segment is
-missing a track, there will be a "hole", and bad behavior may result. Improving
-this is subject to further development (due to being fringe cases, they don't
-have a high priority).
-
-If future versions of mpv change this again, this option may be ignored.
-
-Syntax of EDL URIs
-==================
-
-mpv accepts inline EDL data in form of ``edl://`` URIs. Other than the
-header, the syntax is exactly the same. It's far more convenient to use ``;``
-instead of line breaks, but that is orthogonal.
-
-Example: ``edl://f1.mkv,length=5,start=10;f2.mkv,30,20;f3.mkv``

+Format of mplayer2 EDL files
+============================
+
+The first line in the file must be ``mplayer EDL file, version 2``.
+The rest of the lines belong to one of these classes:
+
+1) lines specifying source files
+2) empty lines
+3) lines specifying timeline segments.
+
+Lines beginning with ``<`` specify source files. These lines first
+contain an identifier used to refer to the source file later, then the
+filename separated by whitespace. The identifier must start with a
+letter. Filenames that start or end with whitespace or contain
+newlines are not supported.
+
+On other lines ``#`` characters delimit comments. Lines that contain
+only whitespace after comments have been removed are ignored.
+
+Timeline segments must appear in the file in chronological order. Each
+segment has the following information associated with it:
+
+- duration
+- output start time
+- output end time (= output start time + duration)
+- source id (specifies the file the content of the segment comes from)
+- source start time (timestamp in the source file)
+- source end time (= source start time + duration)
+
+The output timestamps must form a continuous timeline from 0 to the
+end of the last segment, such that each new segment starts from the
+time the previous one ends at. Source files and times may change
+arbitrarily between segments.
+
+The general format for lines specifying timeline segments is
+[output time info] source_id [source time info]
+source_id must be an identifier defined on a ``<`` line. Both the time
+info parts consists of zero or more of the following elements:
+
+1) ``timestamp``
+2) ``-timestamp``
+3) ``+duration``
+4) ``*``
+5) ``-*``
+
+, where ``timestamp`` and ``duration`` are decimal numbers (computations
+are done with nanosecond precision). Whitespace around ``+`` and ``-`` is
+optional. 1) and 2) specify start and end time of the segment on
+output or source side. 3) specifies duration; the semantics are the
+same whether this appears on output or source side. 4) and 5) are
+ignored on the output side (they're always implicitly assumed). On the
+source side 4) specifies that the segment starts where the previous
+segment *using this source* ended; if there was no previous segment
+time 0 is used. 5) specifies that the segment ends where the next
+segment using this source starts.
+
+Redundant information may be omitted. It will be filled in using the
+following rules:
+
+- output start for first segment is 0
+- two of [output start, output end, duration] imply third
+- two of [source start, source end, duration] imply third
+- output start = output end of previous segment
+- output end = output start of next segment
+- if ``*``, source start = source end of earlier segment
+- if ``-*``, source end = source start of a later segment
+
+As a special rule, a last zero-duration segment without a source
+specification may appear. This will produce no corresponding segment
+in the resulting timeline, but can be used as syntax to specify the
+end time of the timeline (with effect equal to adding -time on the
+previous line).
+
+Examples::
+
+    mplayer EDL file, version 2
+    < id1 filename
+
+    0 id1 123
+    100 id1 456
+    200 id1 789
+    300
+
+All segments come from the source file ``filename``. First segment
+(output time 0-100) comes from time 123-223, second 456-556, third
+789-889.
+
+::
+
+    mplayer EDL file, version 2
+    < f filename
+    f  60-120
+    f 600-660
+    f  30- 90
+
+Play first seconds 60-120 from the file, then 600-660, then 30-90.
+
+::
+
+    mplayer EDL file, version 2
+    < id1 filename1
+    < id2 filename2
+
+    +10 id1 *
+    +10 id2 *
+    +10 id1 *
+    +10 id2 *
+    +10 id1 *
+    +10 id2 *
+
+This plays time 0-10 from filename1, then 0-10 from filename1, then
+10-20 from filename1, then 10-20 from filename2, then 20-30 from
+filename1, then 20-30 from filename2.
+
+::
+
+    mplayer EDL file, version 2
+    < t1 filename1
+    < t2 filename2
+
+    t1 * +2            # segment 1

+This rather pathological example illustrates the rules for filling in
+implied data. All the values can be determined by recursively applying
+the rules given above, and the full end result is this::

 You can encode using these with a command line like::
 
-  mpv infile --o=outfile.mp4 --profile=enc-to-bb-9000
+  mpv infile -o outfile.mp4 -profile enc-to-bb-9000
 
 Of course, you are free to override options set by these profiles by specifying
 them after the -profile option.

-AUDIO FILTERS
-=============
-
-Audio filters allow you to modify the audio stream and its properties. The
-syntax is:
-
-``--af=...``
-    Setup a chain of audio filters. See ``--vf`` (`VIDEO FILTERS`_) for the
-    full syntax.
-
-    This is an object settings list option. See `List Options`_ for details.
-
-.. note::
-
-    To get a full list of available audio filters, see ``--af=help``.
-
-    Also, keep in mind that most actual filters are available via the ``lavfi``
-    wrapper, which gives you access to most of libavfilter's filters. This
-    includes all filters that have been ported from MPlayer to libavfilter.
-
-    The ``--vf`` description describes how libavfilter can be used and how to
-    workaround deprecated mpv filters.
-
-See ``--vf`` group of options for info on how ``--af-add``, ``--af-pre``,
-``--af-clr``, and possibly others work.
-
-Available filters are:
-
-``lavcac3enc[=options]``
-    Encode multi-channel audio to AC-3 at runtime using libavcodec. Supports
-    16-bit native-endian input format, maximum 6 channels. The output is
-    big-endian when outputting a raw AC-3 stream, native-endian when
-    outputting to S/PDIF. If the input sample rate is not 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz or
-    32 kHz, it will be resampled to 48 kHz.
-
-    ``tospdif=<yes|no>``
-        Output raw AC-3 stream if ``no``, output to S/PDIF for
-        pass-through if ``yes`` (default).
-
-    ``bitrate=<rate>``
-        The bitrate use for the AC-3 stream. Set it to 384 to get 384 kbps.
-
-        The default is 640. Some receivers might not be able to handle this.
-
-        Valid values: 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128,
-        160, 192, 224, 256, 320, 384, 448, 512, 576, 640.
-
-        The special value ``auto`` selects a default bitrate based on the
-        input channel number:
-
-        :1ch: 96
-        :2ch: 192
-        :3ch: 224
-        :4ch: 384
-        :5ch: 448
-        :6ch: 448
-
-    ``minch=<n>``
-        If the input channel number is less than ``<minch>``, the filter will
-        detach itself (default: 3).
-
-    ``encoder=<name>``
-        Select the libavcodec encoder used. Currently, this should be an AC-3
-        encoder, and using another codec will fail horribly.
-
-``format=format:srate:channels:out-srate:out-channels``
-    Does not do any format conversion itself. Rather, it may cause the
-    filter system to insert necessary conversion filters before or after this
-    filter if needed. It is primarily useful for controlling the audio format
-    going into other filters. To specify the format for audio output, see
-    ``--audio-format``, ``--audio-samplerate``, and ``--audio-channels``. This
-    filter is able to force a particular format, whereas ``--audio-*``
-    may be overridden by the ao based on output compatibility.
-
-    All parameters are optional. The first 3 parameters restrict what the filter
-    accepts as input. They will therefore cause conversion filters to be
-    inserted before this one.  The ``out-`` parameters tell the filters or audio
-    outputs following this filter how to interpret the data without actually
-    doing a conversion. Setting these will probably just break things unless you
-    really know you want this for some reason, such as testing or dealing with
-    broken media.
-
-    ``<format>``
-        Force conversion to this format. Use ``--af=format=format=help`` to get
-        a list of valid formats.
-
-    ``<srate>``
-        Force conversion to a specific sample rate. The rate is an integer,
-        48000 for example.
-
-    ``<channels>``
-        Force mixing to a specific channel layout. See ``--audio-channels`` option
-        for possible values.
-
-    ``<out-srate>``
-
-    ``<out-channels>``
-
-    *NOTE*: this filter used to be named ``force``. The old ``format`` filter
-    used to do conversion itself, unlike this one which lets the filter system
-    handle the conversion.
-
-``scaletempo[=option1:option2:...]``
-    Scales audio tempo without altering pitch, optionally synced to playback
-    speed.
-
-    This works by playing 'stride' ms of audio at normal speed then consuming
-    'stride*scale' ms of input audio. It pieces the strides together by
-    blending 'overlap'% of stride with audio following the previous stride. It
-    optionally performs a short statistical analysis on the next 'search' ms
-    of audio to determine the best overlap position.
-
-    ``scale=<amount>``
-        Nominal amount to scale tempo. Scales this amount in addition to
-        speed. (default: 1.0)
-    ``stride=<amount>``
-        Length in milliseconds to output each stride. Too high of a value will
-        cause noticeable skips at high scale amounts and an echo at low scale
-        amounts. Very low values will alter pitch. Increasing improves
-        performance. (default: 60)
-    ``overlap=<factor>``
-        Factor of stride to overlap. Decreasing improves performance.
-        (default: .20)
-    ``search=<amount>``
-        Length in milliseconds to search for best overlap position. Decreasing
-        improves performance greatly. On slow systems, you will probably want
-        to set this very low. (default: 14)
-    ``speed=<tempo|pitch|both|none>``
-        Set response to speed change.
-
-        tempo
-             Scale tempo in sync with speed (default).
-        pitch
-             Reverses effect of filter. Scales pitch without altering tempo.
-             Add this to your ``input.conf`` to step by musical semi-tones::
-
-                [ multiply speed 0.9438743126816935
-                ] multiply speed 1.059463094352953

-
-                Loses sync with video.
-        both
-            Scale both tempo and pitch.
-        none
-            Ignore speed changes.
-
-    .. admonition:: Examples
-
-        ``mpv --af=scaletempo --speed=1.2 media.ogg``
-            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal
-            pitch. Changing playback speed would change audio tempo to match.
-
-        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=scale=1.2:speed=none --speed=1.2 media.ogg``
-            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal
-            pitch, but changing playback speed would have no effect on audio
-            tempo.
-
-        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=stride=30:overlap=.50:search=10 media.ogg``
-            Would tweak the quality and performance parameters.
-
-        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=scale=1.2:speed=pitch audio.ogg``
-            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal pitch.
-            Changing playback speed would change pitch, leaving audio tempo at
-            1.2x.
-
-``scaletempo2[=option1:option2:...]``
-    Scales audio tempo without altering pitch.
-    The algorithm is ported from chromium and uses the
-    Waveform Similarity Overlap-and-add (WSOLA) method.
-    It seems to achieves higher audio quality than scaletempo, and rubberband R2
-    engine, or ``engine=faster``. This filter is inserted automatically if
-    ``audio-pitch-correction`` option is used (on by default) when the playback
-    speed is changed.
-
-    By default, the ``search-interval`` and ``window-size`` parameters
-    have the same values as in chromium.
-
-    ``min-speed=<speed>``
-        Mute audio if the playback speed is below ``<speed>``. (default: 0.25)
-
-    ``max-speed=<speed>``
-        Mute audio if the playback speed is above ``<speed>``
-        and ``<speed> != 0``. (default: 8.0)
-
-    ``search-interval=<amount>``
-        Length in milliseconds to search for best overlap position. (default: 40)
-
-    ``window-size=<amount>``
-        Length in milliseconds of the overlap-and-add window. (default: 12)
-
-``rubberband``
-    High quality pitch correction with librubberband. This can be used in place
-    of ``scaletempo`` and ``scaletempo2``, and will be used to adjust audio pitch
-    when playing at speed different from normal. It can also be used to adjust
-    audio pitch without changing playback speed.
-
-    ``pitch-scale=<amount>``
-        Sets the pitch scaling factor. Frequencies are multiplied by this value.
-        (default: 1.0)
-
-    ``engine=<faster|finer>``
-        Select the core Rubberband engine to be used. There are two available:
-
-        :Faster: This is the Rubberband R2 engine. It uses significantly less
-                 CPU than the Finer (R3) engine.
-        :Finer: This is the Rubberband R3 engine. This engine is only available
-                with librubberband version 3 or newer. This produces significantly
-                higher quality output, at the cost of higher CPU usage. (Default
-                if available)
-
-    This filter has a number of additional sub-options. You can list them with
-    ``mpv --af=rubberband=help``. This will also show the default values
-    for each option. The options are not documented here, because they are
-    merely passed to librubberband. Look at the librubberband documentation
-    to learn what each option does:
-    https://breakfastquay.com/rubberband/code-doc/classRubberBand_1_1RubberBandStretcher.html
-    Do note that certain options are only applicable to one of R2 (faster) and
-    R3 (finer) engines.
-    (The mapping of the mpv rubberband filter sub-option names and values to
-    those of librubberband follows a simple pattern: ``"Option" + Name + Value``.)
-
-    This filter supports the following ``af-command`` commands:
-
-    ``set-pitch``
-        Set the ``<pitch-scale>`` argument dynamically. This can be used to
-        change the playback pitch at runtime. Note that speed is controlled
-        using the standard ``speed`` property, not ``af-command``.
-
-    ``multiply-pitch <factor>``
-        Multiply the current value of ``<pitch-scale>`` dynamically.
-
-``lavfi=graph``
-    Filter audio using FFmpeg's libavfilter.
-
-    ``<graph>``
-        Libavfilter graph. See ``lavfi`` video filter for details - the graph
-        syntax is the same.
-
-        .. warning::
-
-            Don't forget to quote libavfilter graphs as described in the lavfi
-            video filter section.
-
-    ``o=<string>``
-        AVOptions.
-
-    ``fix-pts=<yes|no>``
-        Determine PTS based on sample count (default: no). If this is enabled,
-        the player won't rely on libavfilter passing through PTS accurately.
-        Instead, it pass a sample count as PTS to libavfilter, and compute the
-        PTS used by mpv based on that and the input PTS. This helps with filters
-        which output a recomputed PTS instead of the original PTS (including
-        filters which require the PTS to start at 0). mpv normally expects
-        filters to not touch the PTS (or only to the extent of changing frame
-        boundaries), so this is not the default, but it will be needed to use
-        broken filters. In practice, these broken filters will either cause slow
-        A/V desync over time (with some files), or break playback completely if
-        you seek or start playback from the middle of a file.
-
-``drop``
-    This filter drops or repeats audio frames to adapt to playback speed. It
-    always operates on full audio frames, because it was made to handle SPDIF
-    (compressed audio passthrough). This is used automatically if the
-    ``--video-sync=display-adrop`` option is used. Do not use this filter (or
-    the given option); they are extremely low quality.

-``--ao=<driver1,driver2,...[,]>``
-    Specify a priority list of audio output drivers to be used.
-
-If the list has a trailing ',', mpv will fall back on drivers not contained
-in the list.
-
-This is an object settings list option. See `List Options`_ for details.
-
-.. note::
-
-    See ``--ao=help`` for a list of compiled-in audio output drivers sorted by
-    autoprobe order.
-
-    Note that the default audio output driver is subject to change, and must
-    not be relied upon. If a certain AO needs to be used, it must be
-    explicitly specified.
-
-Available audio output drivers are:
-
-``alsa``
-    ALSA audio output driver.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--alsa-resample=yes``
-        Enable ALSA resampling plugin. (This is disabled by default, because
-        some drivers report incorrect audio delay in some cases.)
-
-    ``--alsa-mixer-device=<device>``
-        Set the mixer device used with ``ao-volume`` (default: ``default``).
-
-    ``--alsa-mixer-name=<name>``
-        Set the name of the mixer element (default: ``Master``). This is for
-        example ``PCM`` or ``Master``.
-
-    ``--alsa-mixer-index=<number>``
-        Set the index of the mixer channel (default: 0). Consider the output of
-        "``amixer scontrols``", then the index is the number that follows the
-        name of the element.
-
-    ``--alsa-non-interleaved``
-        Allow output of non-interleaved formats (if the audio decoder uses
-        this format). Currently disabled by default, because some popular
-        ALSA plugins are utterly broken with non-interleaved formats.
-
-    ``--alsa-ignore-chmap``
-        Don't read or set the channel map of the ALSA device - only request the
-        required number of channels, and then pass the audio as-is to it. This
-        option most likely should not be used. It can be useful for debugging,
-        or for static setups with a specially engineered ALSA configuration (in
-        this case you should always force the same layout with ``--audio-channels``,
-        or it will work only for files which use the layout implicit to your
-        ALSA device).
-
-    ``--alsa-buffer-time=<microseconds>``
-        Set the requested buffer time in microseconds. A value of 0 skips requesting
-        anything from the ALSA API. This and the ``--alsa-periods`` option uses the
-        ALSA ``near`` functions to set the requested parameters. If doing so results
-        in an empty configuration set, setting these parameters is skipped.
-
-        Both options control the buffer size. A low buffer size can lead to higher
-        CPU usage and audio dropouts, while a high buffer size can lead to higher
-        latency in volume changes and other filtering.
-
-    ``--alsa-periods=<number>``
-        Number of periods requested from the ALSA API. See ``--alsa-buffer-time``
-        for further remarks.
-
-    .. warning::
-
-        To get multichannel/surround audio, use ``--audio-channels=auto``. The
-        default for this option is ``auto-safe``, which makes this audio output
-        explicitly reject multichannel output, as there is no way to detect
-        whether a certain channel layout is actually supported.
-
-        You can also try `using the upmix plugin
-        <https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/ALSA-Surround-Sound-and-Upmixing>`_.
-        This setup enables multichannel audio on the ``default`` device
-        with automatic upmixing with shared access, so playing stereo
-        and multichannel audio at the same time will work as expected.
-
-``oss``
-    OSS audio output driver
-
-``jack``
-    JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit) audio output driver.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--jack-port=<name>``
-        Connects to the ports with the given name (default: physical ports).
-    ``--jack-name=<client>``
-        Client name that is passed to JACK (default: ``mpv``). Useful
-        if you want to have certain connections established automatically.
-    ``--jack-autostart=<yes|no>``
-        Automatically start jackd if necessary (default: disabled). Note that
-        this tends to be unreliable and will flood stdout with server messages.
-    ``--jack-connect=<yes|no>``
-        Automatically create connections to output ports (default: enabled).
-        When enabled, the maximum number of output channels will be limited to
-        the number of available output ports.
-    ``--jack-std-channel-layout=<waveext|any>``
-        Select the standard channel layout (default: waveext). JACK itself has no
-        notion of channel layouts (i.e. assigning which speaker a given
-        channel is supposed to map to) - it just takes whatever the application
-        outputs, and reroutes it to whatever the user defines. This means the
-        user and the application are in charge of dealing with the channel
-        layout. ``waveext`` uses WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE order, which, even
-        though it was defined by Microsoft, is the standard on many systems.
-        The value ``any`` makes JACK accept whatever comes from the audio
-        filter chain, regardless of channel layout and without reordering. This
-        mode is probably not very useful, other than for debugging or when used
-        with fixed setups.
-
-``coreaudio`` (macOS only)
-    Native macOS audio output driver using AudioUnits and the CoreAudio
-    sound server.
-
-    Automatically redirects to ``coreaudio_exclusive`` when playing compressed
-    formats.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--coreaudio-change-physical-format=<yes|no>``
-        Change the physical format to one similar to the requested audio format
-        (default: no). This has the advantage that multichannel audio output
-        will actually work. The disadvantage is that it will change the
-        system-wide audio settings. This is equivalent to changing the ``Format``
-        setting in the ``Audio Devices`` dialog in the ``Audio MIDI Setup``
-        utility. Note that this does not affect the selected speaker setup.
-
-    ``--coreaudio-spdif-hack=<yes|no>``
-        Try to pass through AC3/DTS data as PCM. This is useful for drivers
-        which do not report AC3 support. It converts the AC3 data to float,
-        and assumes the driver will do the inverse conversion, which means
-        a typical A/V receiver will pick it up as compressed IEC framed AC3
-        stream, ignoring that it's marked as PCM. This disables normal AC3
-        passthrough (even if the device reports it as supported). Use with
-        extreme care.
-
-``coreaudio_exclusive`` (macOS only)
-    Native macOS audio output driver using direct device access and
-    exclusive mode (bypasses the sound server).
-
-``avfoundation`` (macOS only)
-    Native macOS audio output driver using ``AVSampleBufferAudioRenderer``
-    in AVFoundation, which supports `spatial audio
-    <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211775>`_.
-
-    .. warning::
-
-        Turning on spatial audio may hang the playback
-        if mpv is not started out of the bundle,
-        though playback with spatial audio off always works.
-
-``audiounit`` (iOS only)
-    Native iOS audio output driver using ``AudioUnits`` and AudioToolbox.
-
-``openal``
-    OpenAL audio output driver.
-
-    ``--openal-num-buffers=<2-128>``
-        Specify the number of audio buffers to use. Lower values are better for
-        lower CPU usage. Default: 4.
-
-    ``--openal-num-samples=<256-32768>``
-        Specify the number of complete samples to use for each buffer. Higher
-        values are better for lower CPU usage. Default: 8192.
-
-    ``--openal-direct-channels=<yes|no>``
-        Enable OpenAL Soft's direct channel extension when available to avoid
-        tinting the sound with ambisonics or HRTF. Default: yes.
-
-``pulse``
-    PulseAudio audio output driver
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--pulse-host=<host>``
-        Specify the host to use. An empty <host> string uses a local connection,
-        "localhost" uses network transfer (most likely not what you want).
-
-    ``--pulse-buffer=<1-2000|native>``
-        Set the audio buffer size in milliseconds. A higher value buffers
-        more data, and has a lower probability of buffer underruns. A smaller
-        value makes the audio stream react faster, e.g. to playback speed
-        changes. "native" lets the sound server determine buffers.
-
-    ``--pulse-latency-hacks=<yes|no>``
-        Enable hacks to workaround PulseAudio timing bugs (default: yes). If
-        enabled, mpv will do elaborate latency calculations on its own. If
-        disabled, it will use PulseAudio automatically updated timing
-        information. Disabling this might help with e.g. networked audio or
-        some plugins, while enabling it might help in some unknown situations
-        (it is currently enabled due to known bugs with PulseAudio 16.0).
-
-    ``--pulse-allow-suspended=<yes|no>``
-        Allow mpv to use PulseAudio even if the sink is suspended (default: no).
-        Can be useful if PulseAudio is running as a bridge to jack and mpv has its sink-input set to the one jack is using.
-
-``pipewire``
-    PipeWire audio output driver
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--pipewire-buffer=<1-2000|native>``
-        Set the audio buffer size in milliseconds. A higher value buffers
-        more data, and has a lower probability of buffer underruns. A smaller
-        value makes the audio stream react faster, e.g. to playback speed
-        changes. "native" lets the sound server determine buffers.
-
-    ``--pipewire-remote=<remote>``
-        Specify the PipeWire remote daemon name to connect to via local UNIX
-        sockets.
-        An empty <remote> string uses the default remote named ``pipewire-0``.
-
-    ``--pipewire-volume-mode=<channel|global>``
-        Specify if the ``ao-volume`` property should apply to the channel
-        volumes or the global volume.
-        By default the channel volumes are used.
-
-``sdl``
-    SDL 2.0+ audio output driver. Should work on any platform supported by SDL
-    2.0, but may require the ``SDL_AUDIODRIVER`` environment variable to be set
-    appropriately for your system.
-
-    .. note:: This driver is for compatibility with extremely foreign
-              environments, such as systems where none of the other drivers
-              are available.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--sdl-buflen=<length>``
-        Sets the audio buffer length in seconds. Is used only as a hint by the
-        sound system. Playing a file with ``-v`` will show the requested and
-        obtained exact buffer size. A value of 0 selects the sound system
-        default.
-
-``null``
-    Produces no audio output but maintains video playback speed. You can use
-    ``--ao=null --ao-null-untimed`` for benchmarking.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--ao-null-untimed``
-        Do not simulate timing of a perfect audio device. This means audio
-        decoding will go as fast as possible, instead of timing it to the
-        system clock.
-
-    ``--ao-null-buffer``
-        Simulated buffer length in seconds.
-
-    ``--ao-null-outburst``
-        Simulated chunk size in samples.
-
-    ``--ao-null-speed``
-        Simulated audio playback speed as a multiplier. Usually, a real audio
-        device will not go exactly as fast as the system clock. It will deviate
-        just a little, and this option helps to simulate this.
-
-    ``--ao-null-latency``
-        Simulated device latency. This is additional to EOF.
-
-    ``--ao-null-broken-eof``
-        Simulate broken audio drivers, which always add the fixed device
-        latency to the reported audio playback position.
-
-    ``--ao-null-broken-delay``
-        Simulate broken audio drivers, which don't report latency correctly.
-
-    ``--ao-null-channel-layouts``
-        If not empty, this is a ``,`` separated list of channel layouts the
-        AO allows. This can be used to test channel layout selection.
-
-    ``--ao-null-format``
-        Force the audio output format the AO will accept. If unset accepts any.
-
-``pcm``
-    Raw PCM/WAVE file writer audio output
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--ao-pcm-waveheader=<yes|no>``
-        Include or do not include the WAVE header (default: included). When
-        not included, raw PCM will be generated.
-    ``--ao-pcm-file=<filename>``
-        Write the sound to ``<filename>`` instead of the default
-        ``audiodump.wav``. If ``no-waveheader`` is specified, the default is
-        ``audiodump.pcm``.
-    ``--ao-pcm-append=<yes|no>``
-        Append to the file, instead of overwriting it. Always use this with the
-        ``no-waveheader`` option - with ``waveheader`` it's broken, because
-        it will write a WAVE header every time the file is opened.
-
-``sndio``
-    Audio output to the OpenBSD sndio sound system
-
-    (Note: only supports mono, stereo, 4.0, 5.1 and 7.1 channel
-    layouts.)
-
-``wasapi``
-    Audio output to the Windows Audio Session API.
-
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--wasapi-exclusive-buffer=<default|min|1-2000000>``
-        Set buffer duration in exclusive mode (i.e., with
-        ``--audio-exclusive=yes``). ``default`` and ``min`` use the default and
-        minimum device period reported by WASAPI, respectively. You can also
-        directly specify the buffer duration in microseconds, in which case a
-        duration shorter than the minimum device period will be rounded up to
-        the minimum period.
-
-        The default buffer duration should provide robust playback in most
-        cases, but reportedly on some devices there are glitches following
-        stream resets under the default setting. In such cases, specifying a
-        shorter duration might help.

-CONTEXT MENU
-============
-
-The context menu is a menu that pops up on the video window. By default, it is
-bound to right click.
-
-menu.conf
----------
-
-You can define your own menu in ``~~/menu.conf`` (see `FILES`_), or an
-alternative path specified with ``--script-opt=select-menu_conf_path``. It is
-recommended to use the default ``menu.conf`` from
-https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/etc/menu.conf as an example to get
-started.
-
-Each line of ``menu.conf`` is a menu item with fields separated by 1 or more
-tabs. The first field is the text shown in the menu. The second field is usually
-the command that is run when that item is selected. Fields from the third
-onwards can specify ``checked=``, ``disabled=`` and ``hidden=`` states in the
-same way as `Conditional auto profiles`_.
-
-When there is no command, the item will open a submenu. Fields below indented
-with leading whitespace are added to this submenu. Nested submenu items are
-defined by adding more leading whitespace than the parent menu entry.
-
-Empty lines are interpreted as separators.
-
-The second field can also be one of the following tokens to make that entry a
-submenu with the relative items: ``$playlist``, ``$tracks``, ``$video-tracks``,
-``$audio-tracks``, ``$sub-tracks``, ``$secondary-sub-tracks``, ``$chapters``,
-``$editions``, ``$audio-devices``, ``$profiles``. These menus are automatically
-disabled when empty.
-
-To use the native context menu, you need to fill the ``menu-data`` property with
-menu definition data, and call the ``context-menu`` command. In builtin scripts,
-this is done by ``select.lua``, which parses ``menu.conf`` to populate
-``menu-data``. It then calls the ``context-menu`` command on platforms where
-integration with the native context menu is implemented, while on platforms
-where it is not, it opens ``context_menu.lua``.
-
-On platforms without integration with the native context menu,
-``context_menu.lua`` can be disabled entirely using the
-``--load-context-menu=no`` option. On platforms where the integration is
-implemented, it is already disabled by default, and ``--load-context-menu=yes``
-will make ``select.lua`` use it.
-
-Script messages
----------------
-
-``open``
-    Show the context menu.
-
-``select``
-    Select the focused item when there is one.
-
-Configuration
--------------
-
-This script can be customized through a config file
-``script-opts/context_menu.conf`` placed in mpv's user directory and through
-the ``--script-opts`` command-line option. The configuration syntax is
-described in `mp.options functions`_.

+AUDIO FILTERS
+=============
+
+Audio filters allow you to modify the audio stream and its properties. The
+syntax is:
+
+``--af=<filter1[=parameter1:parameter2:...],filter2,...>``
+    Setup a chain of audio filters.
+
+.. note::
+
+    To get a full list of available audio filters, see ``--af=help``.
+
+Audio filters are managed in lists. There are a few commands to manage the
+filter list:
+
+``--af-add=<filter1[,filter2,...]>``
+    Appends the filters given as arguments to the filter list.
+
+``--af-pre=<filter1[,filter2,...]>``
+    Prepends the filters given as arguments to the filter list.
+
+``--af-del=<index1[,index2,...]>``
+    Deletes the filters at the given indexes. Index numbers start at 0,
+    negative numbers address the end of the list (-1 is the last).
+
+``--af-clr``
+    Completely empties the filter list.
+
+Available filters are:
+
+``lavrresample[=option1:option2:...]``
+    This filter uses libavresample (or libswresample, depending on the build)
+    to change sample rate, sample format, or channel layout of the audio stream.
+    This filter is automatically enabled if the audio output does not support
+    the audio configuration of the file being played.
+
+    It supports only the following sample formats: u8, s16ne, s32ne, floatne.
+
+    ``filter-size=<length>``
+        Length of the filter with respect to the lower sampling rate. (default:
+        16)
+    ``phase-shift=<count>``
+        Log2 of the number of polyphase entries. (..., 10->1024, 11->2048,
+        12->4096, ...) (default: 10->1024)
+    ``cutoff=<cutoff>``
+        Cutoff frequency (0.0-1.0), default set depending upon filter length.
+    ``linear``
+        If set then filters will be linearly interpolated between polyphase
+        entries. (default: no)
+    ``no-detach``
+        Do not detach if input and output audio format/rate/channels match.
+        You should add this option if you specify additional parameters, as
+        automatically inserted lavrresample instances will use the default
+        settings.
+    ``o=<string>``
+        Set AVOptions on the SwrContext or AVAudioResampleContext. These should
+        be documented by FFmpeg or Libav.
+
+``lavcac3enc[=tospdif[:bitrate[:minchn]]]``
+    Encode multi-channel audio to AC-3 at runtime using libavcodec. Supports
+    16-bit native-endian input format, maximum 6 channels. The output is
+    big-endian when outputting a raw AC-3 stream, native-endian when
+    outputting to S/PDIF. If the input sample rate is not 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz or
+    32 kHz, it will be resampled to 48 kHz.
+
+    ``<tospdif>``
+        Output raw AC-3 stream if zero or not set, output to S/PDIF for
+        passthrough when ``<tospdif>`` is set non-zero.
+    ``<bitrate>``
+        The bitrate use for the AC-3 stream. Set it to either 384 or 384000
+        to get 384 kbps.
+
+        Valid values: 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128,
+        160, 192, 224, 256, 320, 384, 448, 512, 576, 640.
+
+        Default bitrate is based on the input channel number:
+
+        :1ch: 96
+        :2ch: 192
+        :3ch: 224
+        :4ch: 384
+        :5ch: 448
+        :6ch: 448
+
+    ``<minchn>``
+        If the input channel number is less than ``<minchn>``, the filter will
+        detach itself (default: 5).
+
+``sweep[=speed]``
+    Produces a sine sweep.
+
+    ``<0.0-1.0>``
+        Sine function delta, use very low values to hear the sweep.
+
+``sinesuppress[=freq:decay]``
+    Remove a sine at the specified frequency. Useful to get rid of the 50/60Hz
+    noise on low quality audio equipment. It only works on mono input.
+
+    ``<freq>``
+        The frequency of the sine which should be removed (in Hz) (default:
+        50)
+    ``<decay>``
+        Controls the adaptivity (a larger value will make the filter adapt to
+        amplitude and phase changes quicker, a smaller value will make the
+        adaptation slower) (default: 0.0001). Reasonable values are around
+        0.001.
+
+``bs2b[=option1:option2:...]``
+    Bauer stereophonic to binaural transformation using libbs2b. Improves the
+    headphone listening experience by making the sound similar to that from
+    loudspeakers, allowing each ear to hear both channels and taking into
+    account the distance difference and the head shadowing effect. It is
+    applicable only to 2-channel audio.
+
+    ``fcut=<300-1000>``
+        Set cut frequency in Hz.
+    ``feed=<10-150>``
+        Set feed level for low frequencies in 0.1*dB.
+    ``profile=<value>``
+        Several profiles are available for convenience:
+
+        :default: will be used if nothing else was specified (fcut=700,
+                  feed=45)
+        :cmoy:    Chu Moy circuit implementation (fcut=700, feed=60)
+        :jmeier:  Jan Meier circuit implementation (fcut=650, feed=95)
+
+    If ``fcut`` or ``feed`` options are specified together with a profile, they
+    will be applied on top of the selected profile.
+
+``hrtf[=flag]``
+    Head-related transfer function: Converts multichannel audio to 2-channel
+    output for headphones, preserving the spatiality of the sound.

+
+``equalizer=[g1:g2:g3:...:g10]``
+    10 octave band graphic equalizer, implemented using 10 IIR band-pass
+    filters. This means that it works regardless of what type of audio is
+    being played back. The center frequencies for the 10 bands are:
+
+    === ==========
+    No. frequency
+    === ==========
+    0    31.25  Hz
+    1    62.50  Hz
+    2   125.00  Hz
+    3   250.00  Hz
+    4   500.00  Hz

+    6     2.00 kHz
+    7     4.00 kHz
+    8     8.00 kHz
+    9    16.00 kHz
+    === ==========
+
+    If the sample rate of the sound being played is lower than the center
+    frequency for a frequency band, then that band will be disabled. A known
+    bug with this filter is that the characteristics for the uppermost band
+    are not completely symmetric if the sample rate is close to the center
+    frequency of that band. This problem can be worked around by upsampling
+    the sound using a resampling filter before it reaches this filter.
+
+    ``<g1>:<g2>:<g3>:...:<g10>``
+        floating point numbers representing the gain in dB for each frequency
+        band (-12-12)
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=equalizer=11:11:10:5:0:-12:0:5:12:12 media.avi``
+            Would amplify the sound in the upper and lower frequency region
+            while canceling it almost completely around 1kHz.
+
+``channels=nch[:nr:from1:to1:from2:to2:from3:to3:...]``
+    Can be used for adding, removing, routing and copying audio channels. If
+    only ``<nch>`` is given, the default routing is used. It works as follows:
+    If the number of output channels is greater than the number of input
+    channels, empty channels are inserted (except when mixing from mono to
+    stereo; then the mono channel is duplicated). If the number of output
+    channels is less than the number of input channels, the exceeding
+    channels are truncated.
+
+    ``<nch>``
+        number of output channels (1-8)
+    ``<nr>``
+        number of routes (1-8)
+    ``<from1:to1:from2:to2:from3:to3:...>``
+        Pairs of numbers between 0 and 7 that define where to route each
+        channel.
+
+    .. admonition:: Examples
+
+        ``mpv --af=channels=4:4:0:1:1:0:2:2:3:3 media.avi``
+            Would change the number of channels to 4 and set up 4 routes that
+            swap channel 0 and channel 1 and leave channel 2 and 3 intact.
+            Observe that if media containing two channels were played back,
+            channels 2 and 3 would contain silence but 0 and 1 would still be
+            swapped.
+
+        ``mpv --af=channels=6:4:0:0:0:1:0:2:0:3 media.avi``
+            Would change the number of channels to 6 and set up 4 routes that
+            copy channel 0 to channels 0 to 3. Channel 4 and 5 will contain
+            silence.
+
+``force=in-format:in-srate:in-channels:out-format:out-srate:out-channels``
+    Force a specific audio format/configuration without actually changing the
+    audio data. Keep in mind that the filter system might auto-insert actual
+    conversion filters before or after this filter if needed.
+
+    All parameters are optional. The ``in-`` variants restrict what the filter
+    accepts as input. The ``out-`` variants change the audio format, without
+    actually doing a conversion. The data will be 'reinterpreted' by the
+    filters or audio outputs following this filter.
+
+    ``<in-format>``
+        Force conversion to this format. See ``format`` filter for valid audio
+        format values.
+
+    ``<in-srate>``
+        Force conversion to a specific sample rate. The rate is an integer,
+        48000 for example.
+
+    ``<in-channels>``
+        Force mixing to a specific channel layout. See ``--channels`` option
+        for possible values.
+
+    ``<out-format>``
+
+    ``<out-srate>``
+
+    ``<out-channels>``
+
+``format[=format]``
+    Convert between different sample formats. Automatically enabled when
+    needed by the audio output or another filter. See also ``--format``.
+
+    ``<format>``
+        Sets the desired format. The general form is 'sbe', where 's' denotes
+        the sign (either 's' for signed or 'u' for unsigned), 'b' denotes the
+        number of bits per sample (16, 24 or 32) and 'e' denotes the
+        endianness ('le' means little-endian, 'be' big-endian and 'ne' the
+        endianness of the computer mpv is running on). Valid values (amongst
+        others) are: 's16le', 'u32be' and 'u24ne'. Exceptions to this rule that
+        are also valid format specifiers: u8, s8, floatle, floatbe, floatne,
+        mpeg2, and ac3.
+
+``volume[=v[:sc[:fast]]]``
+    Implements software volume control. Use this filter with caution since it
+    can reduce the signal to noise ratio of the sound. In most cases it is
+    best to use the *Master* volume control of your sound card or the volume
+    knob on your amplifier.
+
+    This filter has a second feature: It measures the overall maximum sound
+    level and prints out that level when mpv exits. This feature currently
+    only works with floating-point data.
+
+    *NOTE*: This filter is not reentrant and can therefore only be enabled
+    once for every audio stream.
+
+    ``<v>``
+        Sets the desired gain in dB for all channels in the stream from -200dB
+        to +60dB, where -200dB mutes the sound completely and +60dB equals a
+        gain of 1000 (default: 0).
+    ``<sc>``
+        Turns soft clipping on (1) or off (0). Soft-clipping can make the
+        sound more smooth if very high volume levels are used. Enable this
+        option if the dynamic range of the loudspeakers is very low.
+
+        *WARNING*: This feature creates distortion and should be considered a
+        last resort.
+    ``<fast>``
+        Force S16 sample format if set to 1. Lower quality, but might be faster
+        in some situations.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=volume=10.1:0 media.avi``
+            Would amplify the sound by 10.1dB and hard-clip if the sound level
+            is too high.
+
+``pan=n[:L00:L01:L02:...L10:L11:L12:...Ln0:Ln1:Ln2:...]``
+    Mixes channels arbitrarily. Basically a combination of the volume and the
+    channels filter that can be used to down-mix many channels to only a few,
+    e.g. stereo to mono, or vary the "width" of the center speaker in a
+    surround sound system. This filter is hard to use, and will require some
+    tinkering before the desired result is obtained. The number of options for
+    this filter depends on the number of output channels. An example how to
+    downmix a six-channel file to two channels with this filter can be found
+    in the examples section near the end.
+
+    ``<n>``
+        Number of output channels (1-8).
+    ``<Lij>``
+        How much of input channel i is mixed into output channel j (0-1). So
+        in principle you first have n numbers saying what to do with the first
+        input channel, then n numbers that act on the second input channel
+        etc. If you do not specify any numbers for some input channels, 0 is
+        assumed.
+
+    .. admonition:: Examples
+
+        ``mpv --af=pan=1:0.5:0.5 media.avi``
+            Would downmix from stereo to mono.
+
+        ``mpv --af=pan=3:1:0:0.5:0:1:0.5 media.avi``
+            Would give 3 channel output leaving channels 0 and 1 intact, and mix
+            channels 0 and 1 into output channel 2 (which could be sent to a
+            subwoofer for example).
+
+    .. note::
+
+        If you just want to force remixing to a certain output channel layout,
+        it is easier to use the ``force`` filter. For example,
+        ``mpv '--af=force=channels=5.1' '--channels=5.1'`` would always force
+        remixing audio to 5.1 and output it like this.
+
+``sub[=fc:ch]``
+    Adds a subwoofer channel to the audio stream. The audio data used for
+    creating the subwoofer channel is an average of the sound in channel 0 and
+    channel 1. The resulting sound is then low-pass filtered by a 4th order
+    Butterworth filter with a default cutoff frequency of 60Hz and added to a
+    separate channel in the audio stream.
+
+    .. warning::
+
+        Disable this filter when you are playing media with an LFE channel
+        (e.g. 5.1 surround sound), otherwise this filter will disrupt the sound
+        to the subwoofer.
+
+    ``<fc>``
+        cutoff frequency in Hz for the low-pass filter (20Hz to 300Hz)
+        (default: 60Hz) For the best result try setting the cutoff frequency
+        as low as possible. This will improve the stereo or surround sound
+        experience.
+    ``<ch>``
+        Determines the channel number in which to insert the sub-channel
+        audio. Channel number can be between 0 and 7 (default: 5). Observe
+        that the number of channels will automatically be increased to <ch> if
+        necessary.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=sub=100:4 --channels=5 media.avi``
+            Would add a subwoofer channel with a cutoff frequency of 100Hz to
+            output channel 4.
+
+``center``
+    Creates a center channel from the front channels. May currently be low
+    quality as it does not implement a high-pass filter for proper extraction
+    yet, but averages and halves the channels instead.
+
+    ``<ch>``
+        Determines the channel number in which to insert the center channel.
+        Channel number can be between 0 and 7 (default: 5). Observe that the
+        number of channels will automatically be increased to ``<ch>`` if
+        necessary.
+
+``surround[=delay]``
+    Decoder for matrix encoded surround sound like Dolby Surround. Some files
+    with 2-channel audio actually contain matrix encoded surround sound.
+
+    ``<delay>``
+        delay time in ms for the rear speakers (0 to 1000) (default: 20) This
+        delay should be set as follows: If d1 is the distance from the
+        listening position to the front speakers and d2 is the distance from
+        the listening position to the rear speakers, then the delay should be
+        set to 15ms if d1 <= d2 and to 15 + 5*(d1-d2) if d1 > d2.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=surround=15 --channels=4 media.avi``
+            Would add surround sound decoding with 15ms delay for the sound to
+            the rear speakers.
+
+``delay[=ch1:ch2:...]``
+    Delays the sound to the loudspeakers such that the sound from the
+    different channels arrives at the listening position simultaneously. It is
+    only useful if you have more than 2 loudspeakers.
+
+    ``ch1,ch2,...``
+        The delay in ms that should be imposed on each channel (floating point
+        number between 0 and 1000).
+
+    To calculate the required delay for the different channels, do as follows:
+
+    1. Measure the distance to the loudspeakers in meters in relation to your
+       listening position, giving you the distances s1 to s5 (for a 5.1
+       system). There is no point in compensating for the subwoofer (you will
+       not hear the difference anyway).
+
+    2. Subtract the distances s1 to s5 from the maximum distance, i.e.
+       ``s[i] = max(s) - s[i]; i = 1...5``.
+
+    3. Calculate the required delays in ms as ``d[i] = 1000*s[i]/342; i =
+       1...5``.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=delay=10.5:10.5:0:0:7:0 media.avi``
+            Would delay front left and right by 10.5ms, the two rear channels
+            and the subwoofer by 0ms and the center channel by 7ms.
+
+``export[=mmapped_file[:nsamples]]``
+    Exports the incoming signal to other processes using memory mapping
+    (``mmap()``). Memory mapped areas contain a header::
+
+        int nch                      /* number of channels */
+        int size                     /* buffer size */
+        unsigned long long counter   /* Used to keep sync, updated every time
+                                        new data is exported. */
+
+    The rest is payload (non-interleaved) 16-bit data.
+
+    ``<mmapped_file>``
+        File to map data to (default: ``~/.mpv/mpv-af_export``).
+    ``<nsamples>``
+        number of samples per channel (default: 512).
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        ``mpv --af=export=/tmp/mpv-af_export:1024 media.avi``
+            Would export 1024 samples per channel to ``/tmp/mpv-af_export``.
+
+``extrastereo[=mul]``
+    (Linearly) increases the difference between left and right channels which
+    adds some sort of "live" effect to playback.
+
+    ``<mul>``
+        Sets the difference coefficient (default: 2.5). 0.0 means mono sound
+        (average of both channels), with 1.0 sound will be unchanged, with
+        -1.0 left and right channels will be swapped.
+
+``drc[=method:target]``
+    Applies dynamic range compression. This maximizes the volume by compressing
+    the audio signal's dynamic range. (Formerly called ``volnorm``.)
+
+    ``<method>``
+        Sets the used method.
+
+        1
+            Use a single sample to smooth the variations via the standard
+            weighted mean over past samples (default).
+        2
+            Use several samples to smooth the variations via the standard
+            weighted mean over past samples.
+
+    ``<target>``
+        Sets the target amplitude as a fraction of the maximum for the sample
+        type (default: 0.25).
+
+    .. note::
+
+        This filter can cause distortion with audio signals that have a very
+        large dynamic range.
+
+``ladspa=file:label[:controls...]``
+    Load a LADSPA (Linux Audio Developer's Simple Plugin API) plugin. This
+    filter is reentrant, so multiple LADSPA plugins can be used at once.
+
+    ``<file>``
+        Specifies the LADSPA plugin library file.
+
+        .. note::
+
+            See also the note about the ``LADSPA_PATH`` variable in the
+            `ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES`_ section.
+    ``<label>``
+        Specifies the filter within the library. Some libraries contain only
+        one filter, but others contain many of them. Entering 'help' here
+        will list all available filters within the specified library, which
+        eliminates the use of 'listplugins' from the LADSPA SDK.
+    ``<controls>``
+        Controls are zero or more floating point values that determine the
+        behavior of the loaded plugin (for example delay, threshold or gain).
+        In verbose mode (add ``-v`` to the mpv command line), all
+        available controls and their valid ranges are printed. This eliminates
+        the use of 'analyseplugin' from the LADSPA SDK.
+
+``karaoke``
+    Simple voice removal filter exploiting the fact that voice is usually
+    recorded with mono gear and later 'center' mixed onto the final audio
+    stream. Beware that this filter will turn your signal into mono. Works
+    well for 2 channel tracks; do not bother trying it on anything but 2
+    channel stereo.
+
+``scaletempo[=option1:option2:...]``
+    Scales audio tempo without altering pitch, optionally synced to playback
+    speed (default).
+
+    This works by playing 'stride' ms of audio at normal speed then consuming
+    'stride*scale' ms of input audio. It pieces the strides together by
+    blending 'overlap'% of stride with audio following the previous stride. It
+    optionally performs a short statistical analysis on the next 'search' ms
+    of audio to determine the best overlap position.
+
+    ``scale=<amount>``
+        Nominal amount to scale tempo. Scales this amount in addition to
+        speed. (default: 1.0)
+    ``stride=<amount>``
+        Length in milliseconds to output each stride. Too high of a value will
+        cause noticeable skips at high scale amounts and an echo at low scale
+        amounts. Very low values will alter pitch. Increasing improves
+        performance. (default: 60)
+    ``overlap=<percent>``
+        Percentage of stride to overlap. Decreasing improves performance.
+        (default: .20)
+    ``search=<amount>``
+        Length in milliseconds to search for best overlap position. Decreasing
+        improves performance greatly. On slow systems, you will probably want
+        to set this very low. (default: 14)
+    ``speed=<tempo|pitch|both|none>``
+        Set response to speed change.
+
+        tempo
+             Scale tempo in sync with speed (default).
+        pitch
+             Reverses effect of filter. Scales pitch without altering tempo.
+             Add ``[ speed_mult 0.9438743126816935`` and ``] speed_mult
+             1.059463094352953`` to your ``input.conf`` to step by musical
+             semi-tones.
+
+             .. warning::
+
+                Loses sync with video.
+        both
+            Scale both tempo and pitch.
+        none
+            Ignore speed changes.
+
+    .. admonition:: Examples
+
+        ``mpv --af=scaletempo --speed=1.2 media.ogg``
+            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal
+            pitch. Changing playback speed would change audio tempo to match.
+
+        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=scale=1.2:speed=none --speed=1.2 media.ogg``
+            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal
+            pitch, but changing playback speed would have no effect on audio
+            tempo.
+
+        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=stride=30:overlap=.50:search=10 media.ogg``
+            Would tweak the quality and performace parameters.
+
+        ``mpv --af=format=floatne,scaletempo media.ogg``
+            Would make scaletempo use float code. Maybe faster on some
+            platforms.
+
+        ``mpv --af=scaletempo=scale=1.2:speed=pitch audio.ogg``
+            Would play media at 1.2x normal speed, with audio at normal pitch.
+            Changing playback speed would change pitch, leaving audio tempo at
+            1.2x.
+
+``lavfi=graph``
+    Filter audio using ffmpeg's libavfilter.
+
+    ``<graph>``
+        Libavfilter graph. See ``lavfi`` video filter for details - the graph
+        syntax is the same.
+
+        .. warning::
+
+            Don't forget to quote libavfilter graphs as described in the lavfi
+            video filter section.

+    ``o=<string>``
+        AVOptions.

+AUDIO OUTPUT DRIVERS
+====================
+
+Audio output drivers are interfaces to different audio output facilities. The
+syntax is:
+
+``--ao=<driver1[:suboption1[=value]:...],driver2,...[,]>``
+    Specify a priority list of audio output drivers to be used.
+
+If the list has a trailing ',', mpv will fall back on drivers not contained
+in the list. Suboptions are optional and can mostly be omitted.
+
+.. note::
+
+    See ``--ao=help`` for a list of compiled-in audio output drivers.
+
+.. admonition:: Examples
+
+    - ``--ao=alsa,oss,`` Try the ALSA driver, then the OSS driver, then others.
+    - ``--ao=alsa:no-block:device=[hw:0,3]`` Sets noblock-mode and the
+      device-name as first card, fourth device.
+
+Available audio output drivers are:
+
+``alsa`` (Linux only)
+    ALSA 0.9/1.x audio output driver
+
+    ``no-block``
+        Sets noblock-mode.
+    ``device=<device>``
+        Sets the device name. For ac3 output via S/PDIF, use an "iec958" or
+        "spdif" device, unless you really know how to set it correctly.
+    ``mixer-device=<device>``
+        Set the mixer device used with ``--no-softvol`` (default: ``default``).
+    ``mixer-name=<name>``
+        Set the name of the mixer element (default: ``Master``). This is for
+        example ``PCM`` or ``Master``.
+    ``mixer-index=<number>``
+        Set the index of the mixer channel (default: 0). Consider the output of
+        "``amixer scontrols``", then the index is the number that follows the
+        name of the element.
+
+    .. note::
+
+        MPlayer and mplayer2 required you to replace any ',' with '.' and
+        any ':' with '=' in the ALSA device name. mpv does not do this anymore.
+        Instead, quote the device name:
+
+            ``--ao=alsa:device=[plug:surround50]``
+
+        Note that the ``[`` and ``]`` simply quote the device name. With some
+        shells (like zsh), you have to quote the option string to prevent the
+        shell from interpreting the brackets instead of passing them to mpv.
+
+``oss``
+    OSS audio output driver
+
+    ``<dsp-device>``
+        Sets the audio output device (default: ``/dev/dsp``).
+    ``<mixer-device>``
+        Sets the audio mixer device (default: ``/dev/mixer``).
+    ``<mixer-channel>``
+        Sets the audio mixer channel (default: ``pcm``). Other valid values
+        include **vol, pcm, line**. For a complete list of options look for
+        ``SOUND_DEVICE_NAMES`` in ``/usr/include/linux/soundcard.h``.
+
+``jack``
+    JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit) audio output driver
+
+    ``port=<name>``
+        Connects to the ports with the given name (default: physical ports).
+    ``name=<client>``
+        Client name that is passed to JACK (default: ``mpv``). Useful
+        if you want to have certain connections established automatically.
+    ``(no-)estimate``
+        Estimate the audio delay, supposed to make the video playback smoother
+        (default: enabled).
+    ``(no-)autostart``
+        Automatically start jackd if necessary (default: disabled). Note that
+        this tends to be unreliable and will flood stdout with server messages.
+    ``(no-)connect``
+        Automatically create connections to output ports (default: enabled).
+        When enabled, the maximum number of output channels will be limited to
+        the number of available output ports.
+    ``std-channel-layout=alsa|waveext|any``
+        Select the standard channel layout (default: alsa). JACK itself has no
+        notion of channel layouts (i.e. assigning which speaker a given
+        channel is supposed to map to) - it just takes whatever the application
+        outputs, and reroutes it to whatever the user defines. This means the
+        user and the application are in charge of dealing with the channel
+        layout. ``alsa`` uses the old MPlayer layout, which is inspired by
+        ALSA's standard layouts. In this mode, ao_jack will refuse to play 3
+        or 7 channels (because these do not really have a defined meaning in
+        MPlayer). ``waveext`` uses WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE order, which, even
+        though it was defined by Microsoft, is the standard on many systems.
+        The value ``any`` makes JACK accept whatever comes from the audio
+        filter chain, regardless of channel layout and without reordering. This
+        mode is probably not very useful, other than for debugging or when used
+        with fixed setups.
+
+``coreaudio`` (Mac OS X only)
+    Native Mac OS X audio output driver
+
+    ``device_id=<id>``
+        ID of output device to use (0 = default device)
+    ``help``
+        List all available output devices with their IDs.
+
+``openal``
+    Experimental OpenAL audio output driver
+
+``pulse``
+    PulseAudio audio output driver
+
+    ``[<host>][:<output sink>]``
+        Specify the host and optionally output sink to use. An empty <host>
+        string uses a local connection, "localhost" uses network transfer
+        (most likely not what you want).
+
+``portaudio``
+    PortAudio audio output driver. This works on all platforms, and has
+    extensive MS Windows support.
+
+    ``device``
+        Specify the subdevice to use. Giving ``help`` as device name lists all
+        devices found by PortAudio. Devices can be given as numeric values,
+        starting from ``1``.
+
+``dsound`` (Windows only)
+    DirectX DirectSound audio output driver
+
+    ``device=<devicenum>``
+        Sets the device number to use. Playing a file with ``-v`` will show a
+        list of available devices.
+
+``sdl``
+    SDL 1.2+ audio output driver. Should work on any platform supported by SDL
+    1.2, but may require the ``SDL_AUDIODRIVER`` environment variable to be set
+    appropriately for your system.
+
+    ``buflen=<length>``
+        Sets the audio buffer length in seconds. Is used only as a hint by the
+        sound system. Playing a file with ``-v`` will show the requested and
+        obtained exact buffer size. A value of 0 selects the sound system
+        default.
+
+    ``bufcnt=<count>``
+        Sets the number of extra audio buffers in mpv. Usually needs not be
+        changed.
+
+``null``
+    Produces no audio output but maintains video playback speed. Use
+    ``--no-audio`` for benchmarking.
+
+``pcm``
+    Raw PCM/WAVE file writer audio output
+
+    ``(no-)waveheader``
+        Include or do not include the WAVE header (default: included). When
+        not included, raw PCM will be generated.
+    ``file=<filename>``
+        Write the sound to ``<filename>`` instead of the default
+        ``audiodump.wav``. If ``no-waveheader`` is specified, the default is
+        ``audiodump.pcm``.
+
+``rsound``
+    Audio output to an RSound daemon
+
+    ``host=<name/path>``
+        Set the address of the server (default: localhost).  Can be either a
+        network hostname for TCP connections or a Unix domain socket path
+        starting with '/'.
+    ``port=<number>``
+        Set the TCP port used for connecting to the server (default: 12345).
+        Not used if connecting to a Unix domain socket.
+
+``sndio``
+    Audio output to the OpenBSD sndio sound system
+
+    (Note: only supports mono, stereo, 4.0, 5.1 and 7.1 channel
+    layouts.)
+
+    ``device=<device>``
+        sndio device to use (default: ``$AUDIODEVICE``, resp. ``snd0``).
+
+``wasapi``
+    Audio output to the Windows Audio Session API.
+
+    ``device=<id>``
+        Uses the requested endpoint instead of the system's default audio
+        endpoint. Both the number and the ID String are valid; the ID String
+        is guaranteed to not change unless the driver is uninstalled.
+
+        Also supports searching active devices by name. If more than one
+        device matches the name, refuses loading it.
+
+        To get a list of the valid devices, give ``help`` as the id. The
+        list is the same as the ``list`` suboption, but stops the player
+        initialization.
+    ``exclusive``
+        Requests exclusive, direct hardware access. By definition prevents
+        sound playback of any other program until mpv exits.
+    ``list``
+        Lists all audio endpoints (output devices) present in the system.

+CHANGES FROM OTHER VERSIONS OF MPLAYER
+======================================
+
+**mpv** is based on mplayer2, which in turn is based on the original
+MPlayer (also called mplayer, mplayer-svn, mplayer1). Many changes
+have been made. Some changes are incompatible, or completely change how the
+player behaves.
+
+General Changes for MPlayer to mplayer2
+---------------------------------------
+
+* Removal of the internal GUI, MEncoder, OSD menu
+* Better pause handling (do not unpause on a command)
+* Better MKV support (such as ordered chapters)
+* vo_vdpau improvements
+* Precise seeking support
+* No embedded copy of ffmpeg and other libraries
+* Native OpenGL backend for OSX
+* General OSX improvements
+* Improvements in audio/video sync handling
+* Cleaned up terminal output
+* Gapless audio support (``--gapless-audio``)
+* Improved responsiveness on user input
+* Support for modifier keys (alt, shift, ctrl) in input.conf
+* OSS4 volume control
+* More correct color reproduction (color matrix generation)
+* Use libass for subtitle rendering by default (better quality)
+* Generally preferring ffmpeg/libav over internal demuxers and decoders
+* Improvements when playing multiple files (``--fixed-vo``)
+* Screenshot improvements (instant screenshots without 1-frame delay, allow
+  taking screenshots even with hardware decoding)
+* Improved support for PulseAudio
+* General code cleanups
+* Many more changes
+
+General Changes for mplayer2 to mpv
+-----------------------------------
+
+* Switch back to GPLv2+.
+* Removal of lots of unneeded code to encourage developer activity (less
+  obscure scary zombie code that kills any desire for hacking the codebase)
+* Removal of dust and dead bodies (code-wise), such as kernel drivers for
+  decades old hardware
+* Removal of support for dead platforms
+* Generally improved MS Windows support (dealing with unicode filenames,
+  improved ``--vo=direct3d``, improved window handling)
+* Better OSD rendering (using libass). This has full unicode support, and
+  languages like Arabic should be better supported.
+* Cleaned up terminal output (nicer status line, less useless noise)
+* Support for playing URLs of popular streaming sites directly
+  (e.g. ``mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...``)
+* Improved OpenGL output (``--vo=opengl-hq``)
+* Make ``--softvol`` default (**mpv** is not a mixer control panel)
+* Improved support for .cue files
+* Screenshot improvements (can save screenshots as JPG or PNG, configurable
+  filenames, support for taking screenshots with or without subtitles - the
+  ``screenshot`` video filter is not needed anymore, and should not be put
+  into the mpv config file)
+* Removal of teletext support
+* Removal of most builtin demuxers, using libavformat instead
+* Removal of builtin network support, using libavformat instead (also,
+  support https via libavformat)
+* Replace image VOs (``--vo=jpeg`` etc.) with ``--vo=image``
+* Do not lose settings when playing a new file in the same player instance
+* New location for config files, new name for the binary.
+* Slave mode compatibility broken (see below)
+* Encoding functionality (replacement for mencoder, see ``DOCS/encoding.rst``)
+* Remove ``--vo=gif89a``, ``--vo=md5sum``, ``--vo=yuv4mpeg``, as encoding can
+  handle these use cases. For yuv4mpeg, for example, use:
+  ``mpv input.mkv -o output.y4m --no-audio --oautofps --oneverdrop``.
+* Image subtitles (DVDs etc.) are rendered in color and use more correct
+  positioning (color can be disabled with ``--sub-gray``)
+* Wayland support
+* Support for precise scrolling which scales the parameter of commands. If the
+  input doesn't support precise scrolling the scale factor stays 1.
+* OSX: Cocoa event loop is independent from mplayer's event loop, so user
+  actions like accessing menus and live resizing do not block the playback.
+* OSX: Apple Remote support.
+* OSX: Media Keys support.
+* Windows: Added WASAPI audio output.
+* New OSD bar with chapter marks and not positioned in the middle of the video
+  (though this can be customized with the ``--osd-bar-align-y`` option).
+* Allow customizing whether a key binding for seeking shows the video time, the
+  OSD bar, or nothing (see section `Input Command Prefixes`_).
+* Display list of chapters and audio/subtitle tracks on OSD (see section
+  `Properties`_).
+* ``--keep-open`` option to stop the player from closing the window and
+  exiting after playback ends.
+* Re-enable screensaver while the player is paused.
+* Matroska edition switching at runtime.
+* Support for libavfilter (for video->video and audio->audio). This allows
+  using most of FFmpeg's filters, which improve greatly on the old MPlayer
+  filters in features, performance, and correctness.
+* Improved downmixing and output of surround audio. Instead of using hardcoded
+  pan filters to do remixing, use libavresample. Channel maps are used to
+  identify the channel layout, so e.g. ``3.0`` and ``2.1`` audio can be
+  distinguished.
+* Allow resuming playback at a later point with ``Shift+q``, also see
+  ``quit_watch_later`` input command.
+* Support mapping multiple commands to one key.
+* Allow changing/adjusting video filters at runtime. (This is also used to make
+  the ``D`` key insert vf_yadif if deinterlacing is not supported otherwise.)
+* Native VAAPI support
+* OSX: VDA support using libavcodec hwaccel API insted of FFmpeg's decoder. Up

+Detailed Listing of User-visible Changes
+----------------------------------------
+
+This listing is about changed command line switches, slave commands, and similar
+things. Completely removed features are not listed.
+
+Command Line Switches
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* There is a new command line syntax, which is generally preferred over the old
+  syntax. ``-optname optvalue`` becomes ``--optname=optvalue``.
+
+  The old syntax will not be removed in the near future. However, the new
+  syntax is mentioned in all documentation and so on, so it is a good thing to
+  know about this change.
+
+  (The new syntax was introduced in mplayer2.)
+* In general, negating switches like ``-noopt`` now have to be written as
+  ``-no-opt``, or better ``--no-opt``.
+* Per-file options are not the default anymore. You can explicitly specify
+  file-local options. See ``Usage`` section.
+* Table of renamed/replaced switches:

+input.conf and Slave Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Table of renamed input commands:
+
+    This lists only commands that are not always gracefully handled by the
+    internal legacy translation layer. If an input.conf contains any legacy
+    commands, a warning will be printed when starting the player. The warnings
+    also show the replacement commands.
+
+    Properties containing ``_`` to separate words use ``-`` instead.

+Other
+~~~~~
+
+* The playtree has been removed. **mpv**'s internal playlist is a simple and
+  flat list now. This simplifies the code and makes **mpv** usage less
+  confusing.
+* Slave mode is broken. This mode is entirely insane in the ``old`` versions of
+  MPlayer. A proper slave mode application needed tons of code and hacks to get
+  it right. The main problem is that slave mode is a bad and incomplete
+  interface, and to get around that, applications parsed output messages
+  intended for users. It is hard to know which messages exactly are parsed by
+  slave mode applications. This makes it virtually impossible to improve
+  terminal output intended for users without possibly breaking something.
+
+  This is absolutely insane, and **mpv** will not try to keep slave mode
+  compatible. If you are a developer of a slave mode application, contact us,
+  and a new and better protocol can be developed.
+
+Policy for Removed Features
+---------------------------
+
+Features are a good thing, because they make users happy. As such, it is
+attempted to preserve useful features as far as possible. But if a feature is
+likely to be not used by many, and causes problems otherwise, it will be
+removed. Developers should not be burdened with fixing or cleaning up code that
+has no actual use.
+
+It is always possible to add back removed features. File a feature request if a
+feature you relied on has been removed, and you want it back. Though it might be
+rejected in the worst case, it is much more likely that it will be either added
+back, or that a better solution will be implemented.
+
+Why this Fork?
+--------------
+
+* MPlayer wants to maintain old code, even if it is very bad code. It seems
+  mplayer2 was forked because MPlayer developers refused to get rid of all the
+  cruft. The mplayer2 and MPlayer codebases also deviated enough to make a
+  reunification unlikely.
+* mplayer2 development is slow, and it is hard to get in changes. Details
+  withheld as to not turn this into a rant.
+* MPlayer rarely merged from mplayer2, and mplayer2 practically stopped
+  merging from MPlayer (not even code cleanups or new features are merged)
+* **mpv** intends to continuously merge from mplayer-svn and mplayer2, while
+  speeding up development. There is willingness for significant changes, even
+  if this means breaking compatibility.

+ENCODING
+========
+
+You can encode files from one format/codec to another using this facility.
+
+``-o <filename>``
+    Enables encoding mode and specifies the output file name.
+
+``--of=<format>``
+    Specifies the output format (overrides autodetection by the file name
+    extension of the file specified by ``-o``). This can be a comma separated
+    list of possible formats to try. See ``--of=help`` for a full list of
+    supported formats.
+
+``--ofopts=<options>``
+    Specifies the output format options for libavformat.
+    See ``--ofopts=help`` for a full list of supported options.
+
+    Options are managed in lists. There are a few commands to manage the
+    options list.
+
+    ``--ofopts-add=<options1[,options2,...]>``
+        Appends the options given as arguments to the options list.
+
+    ``--ofopts-pre=<options1[,options2,...]>``
+        Prepends the options given as arguments to the options list.
+
+    ``--ofopts-del=<index1[,index2,...]>``
+        Deletes the options at the given indexes. Index numbers start at 0,
+        negative numbers address the end of the list (-1 is the last).
+
+    ``--ofopts-clr``
+        Completely empties the options list.
+
+``--ofps=<float value>``
+    Specifies the output format time base (default: 24000). Low values like 25
+    limit video fps by dropping frames.
+
+``--oautofps``
+    Sets the output format time base to the guessed frame rate of the input
+    video (simulates mencoder behavior, useful for AVI; may cause frame drops).
+    Note that not all codecs and not all formats support VFR encoding, and some
+    which do have bugs when a target bitrate is specified - use ``--ofps`` or
+    ``--oautofps`` to force CFR encoding in these cases.
+
+``--omaxfps=<float value>``
+    Specifies the minimum distance of adjacent frames (default: 0, which means
+    unset). Content of lower frame rate is not readjusted to this frame rate;
+    content of higher frame rate is decimated to this frame rate.
+
+``--oharddup``
+    If set, the frame rate given by ``--ofps`` is attained not by skipping time
+    codes, but by duplicating frames (constant frame rate mode).
+
+``--oneverdrop``
+    If set, frames are never dropped. Instead, time codes of video are
+    readjusted to always increase. This may cause AV desync, though; to work
+    around this, use a high-fps time base using ``--ofps`` and absolutely
+    avoid ``--oautofps``.
+
+``--oac=<codec>``
+    Specifies the output audio codec. This can be a comma separated list of
+    possible codecs to try. See ``--oac=help`` for a full list of supported
+    codecs.
+
+``--oaoffset=<value>``
+    Shifts audio data by the given time (in seconds) by adding/removing
+    samples at the start.
+
+``--oacopts=<options>``
+    Specifies the output audio codec options for libavcodec.
+    See ``--oacopts=help`` for a full list of supported options.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example
+
+        "``--oac=libmp3lame --oacopts=b=128000``"
+            selects 128kbps MP3 encoding.
+
+    Options are managed in lists. There are a few commands to manage the
+    options list.
+
+    ``--oacopts-add=<options1[,options2,...]>``

+        Deletes the options at the given indexes. Index numbers start at 0,
+        negative numbers address the end of the list (-1 is the last).
+
+    ``--oacopts-clr``
+        Completely empties the options list.
+
+``--oafirst``
+    Force the audio stream to become the first stream in the output. By default
+    the order is unspecified.
+
+``--ovc=<codec>``
+    Specifies the output video codec. This can be a comma separated list of
+    possible codecs to try. See ``--ovc=help`` for a full list of supported
+    codecs.
+
+``--ovoffset=<value>``
+    Shifts video data by the given time (in seconds) by shifting the pts
+    values.
+
+``--ovcopts <options>``
+    Specifies the output video codec options for libavcodec.
+    See --ovcopts=help for a full list of supported options.
+
+    .. admonition:: Examples
+
+        ``"--ovc=mpeg4 --oacopts=qscale=5"``
+            selects constant quantizer scale 5 for MPEG-4 encoding.
+
+        ``"--ovc=libx264 --ovcopts=crf=23"``
+            selects VBR quality factor 23 for H.264 encoding.
+
+    Options are managed in lists. There are a few commands to manage the

+        Completely empties the options list.
+
+``--ovfirst``
+    Force the video stream to become the first stream in the output. By default
+    the order is unspecified.
+
+``--ocopyts``
+    Copies input pts to the output video (not supported by some output
+    container formats, e.g. AVI). Discontinuities are still fixed.
+    By default, audio pts are set to playback time and video pts are
+    synchronized to match audio pts, as some output formats do not support
+    anything else.
+
+``--orawts``
+    Copies input pts to the output video (not supported by some output
+    container formats, e.g. AVI). In this mode, discontinuities are not fixed
+    and all pts are passed through as-is. Never seek backwards or use multiple
+    input files in this mode!

+INPUT.CONF
+==========
+
+The input.conf file consists of a list of key bindings, for example::
+
+    s screenshot      # take a screenshot with the s key
+
+Each line maps a key to an input command. Keys are specified with their literal
+value (upper case if combined with ``Shift``), or a name for special keys. For
+example, ``a`` maps to the ``a`` key without shift, and ``A`` maps to ``a``
+with shift.
+
+A list of special keys can be obtained with
+
+    ``mpv --input-keylist``
+
+In general, keys can be combined with ``Shift``, ``Ctrl`` and ``Alt``::
+
+    ctrl+q quit
+
+**mpv** can be started in input test mode, which displays key bindings and the
+commands they're bound to on the OSD, instead of executing the commands::
+
+    mpv --input-test --demuxer=rawvideo --demuxer-rawvideo=w=1280:h=720 /dev/zero
+
+(Commands which normally close the player will not work in this mode, and you
+must kill **mpv** externally to make it exit.)
+
+General Input Command Syntax
+----------------------------
+
+``[Shift+][Ctrl+][Alt+][Meta+]<key> [{<section>}] [<prefixes>] <command> (<argument>)* [; <command>]``
+
+Newlines always start a new binding. ``#`` starts a comment (outside of quoted
+string arguments). To bind commands to the ``#`` key, ``SHARP`` can be used.
+
+``<key>`` is either the literal character the key produces (ASCII or Unicode
+character), or a symbolic name (as printed by ``--input-keylist``).
+
+``<section>`` (braced with ``{`` and ``}``) is the input section for this
+command.
+
+Arguments are separated by whitespace. This applies even to string arguments.
+For this reason, string arguments should be quoted with ``"``. Inside quotes,
+C-style escaping can be used.
+
+Optional arguments can be skipped with ``-``.
+
+You can bind multiple commands to one key. For example:
+
+| a show_text "command 1" ; show_text "command 2"
+
+Note that some magic is disabled for keys: seek commands inside lists are not
+coalesced (seeking will appear slower), and no check is done for abort commands
+(so these commands can't be used to abort playback if the network cache is
+stuck).
+
+List of Input Commands
+----------------------
+
+``ignore``
+    Use this to "block" keys that should be unbound, and do nothing. Useful for
+    disabling default bindings, without disabling all bindings with
+    ``--no-input-default-bindings``.
+
+``seek <seconds> [relative|absolute|absolute-percent|- [default-precise|exact|keyframes]]``
+    Change the playback position. By default, seeks by a relative amount of
+    seconds.
+
+    The second argument sets the seek mode:
+
+    relative (default)
+        Seek relative to current position (a negative value seeks backwards).
+    absolute
+        Seek to a given time.
+    absolute-percent
+        Seek to a given percent position.
+
+    The third argument defines how exact the seek is:
+
+    default-precise (default)
+        Follow the default behavior as set by ``--hr-seek``, which by default
+        does imprecise seeks (like ``keyframes``).
+    exact
+        Always do exact/hr/precise seeks (slow).
+    keyframes
+        Always restart playback at keyframe boundaries (fast).
+
+``frame_step``
+    Play one frame, then pause.
+
+``frame_back_step``
+    Go back by one frame, then pause. Note that this can be very slow (it tries
+    to be precise, not fast), and sometimes fails to behave as expected. How
+    well this works depends on whether precise seeking works correctly (e.g.
+    see the ``--hr-seek-demuxer-offset`` option). Video filters or other video
+    postprocessing that modifies timing of frames (e.g. deinterlacing) should
+    usually work, but might make backstepping silently behave incorrectly in
+    corner cases.
+
+    This does not work with audio-only playback.
+
+``set <property> "<value>"``
+    Set the given property to the given value.
+
+``add <property> [<value>]``
+    Add the given value to the property. On overflow or underflow, clamp the
+    property to the maximum. If ``<value>`` is omitted, assume ``1``.
+
+``cycle <property> [up|down]``
+    Cycle the given property. ``up`` and ``down`` set the cycle direction. On
+    overflow, set the property back to the minimum, on underflow set it to the
+    maximum. If ``up`` or ``down`` is omitted, assume ``up``.
+
+``speed_mult <value>``
+    Multiply the ``speed`` property by the given value.
+
+``screenshot [subtitles|video|window|- [single|each-frame]]``
+    Take a screenshot.
+
+    First argument:
+
+    <subtitles> (default)
+        Save the video image, in its original resolution, and with subtitles.
+        Some video outputs may still include the OSD in the output under certain
+        circumstances.
+    <video>
+        Like ``subtitles``, but typically without OSD or subtitles. The exact
+        behavior depends on the selected video output.
+    <window>
+        Save the contents of the mpv window. Typically scaled, with OSD and
+        subtitles. The exact behavior depends on the selected video output, and
+        if no support is available, this will act like ``video``.
+
+    Second argument:
+
+    <single> (default)
+        Take a single screenshot.
+    <each-frame>
+        Take a screenshot each frame. Issue this command again to stop taking
+        screenshots.
+
+``screenshot_to_file "<filename>" [subtitles|video|window]``
+    Take a screenshot and save it to a given file. The format of the file will
+    be guessed by the extension (and ``--screenshot-format`` is ignored - the
+    behavior when the extension is missing or unknown is arbitrary).
+
+    The second argument is like the first argument to ``screenshot``.
+
+    This command tries to never overwrite files. If the file already exists,
+    it fails.
+
+    Like all input command parameters, the filename is subject to property
+    expansion as described in `Property Expansion`_.
+
+``playlist_next [weak|force]``
+    Go to the next entry on the playlist.
+
+    weak (default)
+        If the last file on the playlist is currently played, do nothing.
+    force
+        Terminate playback if there are no more files on the playlist.
+
+``playlist_prev [weak|force]``
+    Go to the previous entry on the playlist.
+
+    weak (default)
+        If the first file on the playlist is currently played, do nothing.
+    force
+        Terminate playback if the first file is being played.
+
+``loadfile "<file>" [replace|append]``
+    Load the given file and play it.
+
+    Second argument:
+
+    <replace> (default)
+        Stop playback of the current file, and play the new file immediately.
+    <append>
+        Append the file to the playlist.
+
+``loadlist "<playlist>" [replace|append]``
+    Load the given playlist file (like ``--playlist``).
+
+``playlist_clear``
+    Clear the playlist, except the currently played file.
+
+``playlist_remove <index>``
+    Remove the playlist entry at the given index. Index values start counting
+    with 0. You cannot remove the entry for the currently played file.
+
+``playlist_move <index1> <index2>``
+    Move the playlist entry at index1, so that it takes the place of the
+    entry index2. (Paradoxically, the moved playlist entry will not have
+    the index value index2 after moving if index1 was lower than index2,
+    because index2 refers to the target entry, not the index the entry
+    will have after moving.)
+
+``run "<command>"``
+    Run the given command with ``/bin/sh -c``. The string is expanded like in
+    `Property Expansion`_.
+
+``quit [<code>]``
+    Exit the player using the given exit code.
+
+``quit_watch_later``
+    Exit player, and store current playback position. Playing that file later
+    will seek to the previous position on start.
+
+``sub_add "<file>"``
+    Load the given subtitle file. It is not selected as current subtitle after
+    loading.
+
+``sub_remove [<id>]``
+    Remove the given subtitle track. If the ``id`` argument is missing, remove
+    the current track. (Works on external subtitle files only.)
+
+``sub_reload [<id>]``
+    Reload the given subtitle tracks. If the ``id`` argument is missing, remove
+    the current track. (Works on external subtitle files only.)
+
+    This works by unloading and re-adding the subtitle track.
+
+``sub_step <skip>``
+    Change subtitle timing such, that the subtitle event after the next
+    ``<skip>`` subtitle events is displayed. ``<skip>`` can be negative to step
+    backwards.
+
+``sub_seek <skip>``
+    Seek to the next (skip set to 1) or the previous (skip set to -1) subtitle.
+    This is similar to ``sub_step``, except that it seeks video and audio
+    instead of adjusting the subtitle delay.
+
+    Like with ``sub_step``, this works with external text subtitles only. For
+    embedded text subtitles (like with Matroska), this works only with subtitle
+    events that have already been displayed.
+
+``osd [<level>]``
+    Toggle OSD level. If ``<level>`` is specified, set the OSD mode
+    (see ``--osd-level`` for valid values).
+
+``print_text "<string>"``
+    Print text to stdout. The string can contain properties (see
+    `Property Expansion`_).
+
+``show_text "<string>" [<duration>|- [<level>]]``
+    Show text on the OSD. The string can contain properties, which are expanded
+    as described in `Property Expansion`_. This can be used to show playback
+    time, filename, and so on.
+
+    <duration>
+        The time in ms to show the message for. By default, it uses the same
+        value as ``--osd-duration``.
+
+    <level>
+        The minimum OSD level to show the text at (see ``--osd-level``).
+
+``show_progress``
+    Show the progress bar, the elapsed time and the total duration of the file
+    on the OSD.
+
+Input Commands that are Possibly Subject to Change
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+``af set|add|toggle|del|clr "filter1=params,filter2,..."``
+    Change audio filter chain. See ``vf`` command.
+
+``vf set|add|toggle|del|clr "filter1=params,filter2,..."``
+    Change video filter chain.
+
+    The first argument decides what happens:
+
+    set
+        Overwrite the previous filter chain with the new one.
+
+    add
+        Append the new filter chain to the previous one.
+
+    toggle
+        Check if the given filter (with the exact parameters) is already
+        in the video chain. If yes, remove the filter. If no, add the filter.
+        (If several filters are passed to the command, this is done for
+        each filter.)
+
+    del
+        Remove the given filters from the video chain. Unlike in the other
+        cases, the second parameter is a comma separated list of filter names
+        or integer indexes. ``0`` would denote the first filter. Negative
+        indexes start from the last filter, and ``-1`` denotes the last
+        filter.
+
+    clr
+        Remove all filters. Note that like the other sub-commands, this does
+        not control automatically inserted filters.
+
+    You can assign labels to filter by prefixing them with ``@name:`` (where
+    ``name`` is a user-chosen arbitrary identifier). Labels can be used to
+    refer to filters by name in all of the filter chain modification commands.
+    For ``add``, using an already used label will replace the existing filter.
+
+    The ``vf`` command shows the list of requested filters on the OSD after
+    changing the filter chain. This is roughly equivalent to
+    ``show_text ${vf}``. Note that auto-inserted filters for format conversion
+    are not shown on the list, only what was requested by the user.
+
+    .. admonition:: Example for input.conf
+
+        - ``a vf set flip`` turn video upside-down on the ``a`` key
+        - ``b vf set ""`` remove all video filters on ``b``
+        - ``c vf toggle lavfi=gradfun`` toggle debanding on ``c``
+
+``enable_section "<section>" [default|exclusive]``
+    Enable all key bindings in the named input section.
+
+    The enabled input sections form a stack. Bindings in sections on the top of
+    the stack are preferred to lower sections. This command puts the section
+    on top of the stack. If the section was already on the stack, it is
+    implicitly removed beforehand. (A section cannot be on the stack more than
+    once.)
+
+    If ``exclusive`` is specified as second argument, all sections below the
+    newly enabled section are disabled. They will be re-enabled as soon as
+    all exclusive sections above them are removed.
+
+``disable_section "<section>"``
+    Disable the named input section. Undoes ``enable_section``.
+
+``overlay_add <id> <x> <y> "<file>" <offset> "<fmt>" <w> <h> <stride>``
+    Add an OSD overlay sourced from raw data. This might be useful for scripts
+    and applications controlling mpv, and which want to display things on top
+    of the video window.
+
+    Overlays are usually displayed in screen resolution, but with some VOs,
+    the resolution is reduced to that of the video's. You can read the
+    ``osd-width`` and ``osd-height`` properties. At least with ``--vo-xv`` and
+    anamorphic video (such as DVD), ``osd-par`` should be read as well, and the
+    overlay should be aspect-compensated. (Future directions: maybe mpv should
+    take care of some of these things automatically, but it's hard to tell
+    where to draw the line.)
+
+    ``id`` is an integer between 0 and 63 identifying the overlay element. The
+    ID can be used to add multiple overlay parts, update a part by using this
+    command with an already existing ID, or to remove a part with
+    ``overlay_remove``. Using a previously unused ID will add a new overlay,
+    while reusing an ID will update it. (Future directions: there should be
+    something to ensure different programs wanting to create overlays don't
+    conflict with each others, should that ever be needed.)
+
+    ``x`` and ``y`` specify the position where the OSD should be displayed.
+
+    ``file`` specifies the file the raw image data is read from. It can be
+    either a numeric UNIX file descriptor prefixed with ``@`` (e.g. ``@4``),
+    or a filename. The file will be mapped into memory with ``mmap()``. Some VOs
+    will pass the mapped pointer directly to display APIs (e.g. opengl or
+    vdpau), so no actual copying is involved. Truncating the source file while
+    the overlay is active will crash the player. You shouldn't change the data
+    while the overlay is active, because the data is essentially accessed at
+    random points. Instead, call ``overlay_add`` again (preferably with a
+    different memory region to prevent tearing).
+
+    ``offset`` is the offset of the first pixel in the source file. It is
+    passed directly to ``mmap`` and is subject to certain restrictions
+    (see ``man mmap`` for details). In particular, this value has to be a
+    multiple of the system's page size.
+
+    ``fmt`` is a string identifying the image format. Currently, only ``bgra``
+    is defined. This format has 4 bytes per pixels, with 8 bits per component.
+    The least significant 8 bits are blue, and the most significant 8 bits
+    are alpha (in little endian, the components are B-G-R-A, with B as first
+    byte). This uses premultiplied alpha: every color component is already
+    multiplied with the alpha component. This means the numeric value of each
+    component is equal to or smaller than the alpha component. (Violating this
+    rule will lead to different results with different VOs: numeric overflows
+    resulting from blending broken alpha values is considered something that
+    shouldn't happen, and consequently implementations don't ensure that you
+    get predictable behavior in this case.)
+
+    ``w``, ``h``, and ``stride`` specify the size of the overlay. ``w`` is the
+    visible width of the overlay, while ``stride`` gives the width in bytes in
+    memory. In the simple case, and with the ``bgra`` format, ``stride==4*w``.
+    In general, the total amount of memory accessed is ``stride * h``.
+    (Technically, the minimum size would be ``stride * (h - 1) + w * 4``, but
+    for simplicity, the player will access all ``stride * h`` bytes.)
+
+    .. admonition:: Warning
+
+        When updating the overlay, you should prepare a second shared memory
+        region (e.g. make use of the offset parameter) and add this as overlay,
+        instead of reusing the same memory every time. Otherwise, you might
+        get the equivalent of tearing, when your application and mpv write/read
+        the buffer at the same time. Also, keep in mind that mpv might access
+        an overlay's memory at random times whenever it feels the need to do
+        so, for example when redrawing the screen.
+
+``overlay_remove <id>``
+    Remove an overlay added with ``overlay_add`` and the same ID. Does nothing
+    if no overlay with this ID exists.
+
+Undocumented commands: ``tv_start_scan``, ``tv_step_channel``, ``tv_step_norm``,
+``tv_step_chanlist``, ``tv_set_channel``, ``tv_last_channel``, ``tv_set_freq``,
+``tv_step_freq``, ``tv_set_norm``, ``dvb_set_channel``, ``radio_step_channel``,
+``radio_set_channel``, ``radio_set_freq``, ``radio_step_freq`` (all of these
+should be replaced by properties), ``stop`` (questionable use), ``get_property``
+(?), ``vo_cmdline`` (experimental).
+
+Input Command Prefixes
+----------------------
+
+These prefixes are placed between key name and the actual command. Multiple
+prefixes can be specified. They are separated by whitespace.
+
+``osd-auto`` (default)
+    Use the default behavior for this command.
+``no-osd``
+    Do not use any OSD for this command.
+``osd-bar``
+    If possible, show a bar with this command. Seek commands will show the
+    progress bar, property changing commands may show the newly set value.
+``osd-msg``
+    If possible, show an OSD message with this command. Seek command show
+    the current playback time, property changing commands show the newly set
+    value as text.
+``osd-msg-bar``
+    Combine osd-bar and osd-msg.
+``raw``
+    Do not expand properties in string arguments. (Like ``"${property-name}"``.)
+``expand-properties`` (default)
+    All string arguments are expanded as described in `Property Expansion`_.
+
+
+All of the osd prefixes are still overridden by the global ``--osd-level``
+settings.
+
+Undocumented prefixes: ``pausing``, ``pausing_keep``, ``pausing_toggle``,
+``pausing_keep_force``. (Should these be made official?)
+
+Input Sections
+--------------
+
+Input sections group a set of bindings, and enable or disable them at once.
+In ``input.conf``, each key binding is assigned to an input section, rather
+than actually having explicit text sections.
+
+Also see ``enable_section`` and ``disable_section`` commands.
+
+Predefined bindings:
+
+``default``
+    Bindings without input section are implicitly assigned to this section. It
+    is enabled by default during normal playback.
+``encode``
+    Section which is active in encoding mode. It is enabled exclusively, so
+    that bindings in the ``default`` sections are ignored.
+
+Properties
+----------
+
+Properties are used to set mpv options during runtime, or to query arbitrary
+information. They can be manipulated with the ``set``/``add``/``cycle``
+commands, and retrieved with ``show_text``, or anything else that uses property
+expansion. (See `Property Expansion`_.)
+
+The ``W`` column indicates whether the property is generally writable. If an
+option is referenced, the property should take/return exactly the same values
+as the option.

+
+Property Expansion
+------------------
+
+All string arguments to input commands as well as certain options (like
+``--playing-msg``) are subject to property expansion.
+
+.. admonition:: Example for input.conf
+
+    ``i show_text "Filename: ${filename}"``
+        shows the filename of the current file when pressing the ``i`` key
+
+Within ``input.conf``, property expansion can be inhibited by putting the
+``raw`` prefix in front of commands.
+
+The following expansions are supported:
+
+``${NAME}``
+    Expands to the value of the property ``NAME``. If retrieving the property
+    fails, expand to an error string. (Use ``${NAME:}`` with a trailing
+    ``:`` to expand to an empty string instead.)
+    If ``NAME`` is prefixed with ``=``, expand to the raw value of the property
+    (see section below).
+``${NAME:STR}``
+    Expands to the value of the property ``NAME``, or ``STR`` if the
+    property cannot be retrieved. ``STR`` is expanded recursively.
+``${?NAME:STR}``
+    Expands to ``STR`` (recursively) if the property ``NAME`` is available.
+``${!NAME:STR}``
+    Expands to ``STR`` (recursively) if the property ``NAME`` cannot be
+    retrieved.
+``${?NAME==VALUE:STR}``
+    Expands to ``STR`` (recursively) if the property ``NAME`` expands to a
+    string equal to ``VALUE``. You can prefix ``NAME`` with ``=`` in order to
+    compare the raw value of a property (see section below). If the property
+    is unavailable, or other errors happen when retrieving it, the value is
+    never considered equal.
+    Note that ``VALUE`` can't contain any of the characters ``:`` or ``}``.
+    Also, it is possible that escaping with ``"`` or ``%`` might be added in
+    the future, should the need arise.
+``${!NAME==VALUE:STR}``
+    Same as with the ``?`` variant, but ``STR`` is expanded if the value is
+    not equal. (Using the same semantics as with ``?``.)
+``$$``
+    Expands to ``$``.
+``$}``
+    Expands to ``}``. (To produce this character inside recursive
+    expansion.)
+``$>``
+    Disable property expansion and special handling of ``$`` for the rest
+    of the string.
+
+In places where property expansion is allowed, C-style escapes are often
+accepted as well. Example:
+
+    - ``\n`` becomes a newline character
+    - ``\\`` expands to ``\``
+
+Raw and Formatted Properties
+----------------------------
+
+Normally, properties are formatted as human-readable text, meant to be
+displayed on OSD or on the terminal. It is possible to retrieve an unformatted
+(raw) value from a property by prefixing its name with ``=``. These raw values
+can be parsed by other programs and follow the same conventions as the options
+associated with the properties.
+
+.. admonition:: Examples
+
+    - ``${time-pos}`` expands to ``00:14:23`` (if playback position is at 14
+      minutes 23 seconds)
+    - ``${=time-pos}`` expands to ``863.4`` (same time, plus 400 milliseconds -
+      milliseconds are normally not shown in the formatted case)
+
+Sometimes, the difference in amount of information carried by raw and formatted
+property values can be rather big. In some cases, raw values have more
+information, like higher precision than seconds with ``time-pos``. Sometimes
+it is the other way around, e.g. ``aid`` shows track title and language in the
+formatted case, but only the track number if it is raw.
