Release v0.7.3

This was subtly broken by commit a937ba20. Instead of framestepping over
the timeline segment boundary, it would just unpause playback, because
seeking now resets mpctx->step_frames. This was especially apparent when
doing something like "mpv *.jpg --merge-files".

Fix by restoring the step_frames field specifically if the seek is done
for switching segment boundaries. Hopefully the number fields which need
such an exception on seeking won't grow and turn this code into a mess.

-- minor features: jack, DVD, CDDA, DVB, CACA, legacy direct3d VO

 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

-        - 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

-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
-
-   # Explicitly download wraps as nested projects may have older versions of them.
-   meson wrap install expat
-   meson wrap install harfbuzz
-   meson wrap install libpng
-   meson wrap install zlib
-
-   # Add wraps for mpv's required dependencies
-   mkdir -p subprojects
-
-   cat <<EOF > subprojects/libplacebo.wrap
-   [wrap-git]
-   url = https://github.com/haasn/libplacebo
-   revision = master
-   depth = 1
-   clone-recursive = true
-   EOF
-
-   cat <<EOF > subprojects/libass.wrap
-   [wrap-git]
-   revision = master
-   url = https://github.com/libass/libass
-   depth = 1
-   EOF
-
-   # For FFmpeg, use Meson's build system port; alternatively, you can compile
-   # the upstream version yourself. See https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide
-   cat <<EOF > subprojects/ffmpeg.wrap
-   [wrap-git]
-   url = https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/meson-ports/ffmpeg.git
-   revision = meson-8.1
-   depth = 1
-   [provide]
-   libavcodec = libavcodec_dep
-   libavdevice = libavdevice_dep
-   libavfilter = libavfilter_dep
-   libavformat = libavformat_dep
-   libavutil = libavutil_dep
-   libswresample = libswresample_dep
-   libswscale = libswscale_dep
-   EOF
-   ```
-
-3. Build
-
-   ``` bash
-   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
-   ```

-
-## 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.

+Cross Compiling to Windows
+==========================
+
+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:
+
+```bash
+DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32 ./waf configure
+```
+
+While building a complete MinGW-w64 toolchain yourself is possible, people have
+created scripts to help ease the process. These are the two recommended methods:
+
+- Using [mingw-w64-cmake](https://github.com/lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake) to setup
+  a MinGW-w64 environment. We recommend you to try this first before MXE.
+  mingw-w64-cmake will also build mpv and its dependencies.
+- Alternatively, you can use MXE: http://mxe.cc. With MXE, you have to manually
+  set the target to MinGW-w64 (even if you compile to 32 bit). A working example
+  below.
+
+**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.
+
+Additional dependencies
+-----------------------
+
+You need a pthread wrapper. It must be interoperable with native Windows
+threads. pthreads-win32 or MinGW pthreads might work.
+
+If you want ``--input-file=...`` to work, you need libwaio. It's available
+from: git://midipix.org/waio
+
+Example with MXE

+echo "JOBS := 4" >> settings.mk
+
+# The MXE_TARGET environment variable builds MinGW-w64 for 32 bit targets.

-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.

-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.

 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.
+You can also set defaults for each filter. The defaults are applied before the
+normal filter parameters.

+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.

+    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

+        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

+        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

+
+    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``

+        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

-    ``--pulse-buffer=<1-2000|native>``
+    ``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

-    ``--pulse-latency-hacks=<yes|no>``
-        Enable hacks to workaround PulseAudio timing bugs (default: yes). If
+    ``latency-hacks=<yes|no>``
+        Enable hacks to workaround PulseAudio timing bugs (default: no). 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).
+        (it used to be required to get good behavior on old PulseAudio versions).
 
-    ``--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.
+        If you have stuttering video when using pulse, try to enable this

-``pipewire``
-    PipeWire audio output driver
+``portaudio``
+    PortAudio audio output driver. This works on all platforms, and has
+    extensive MS Windows support.
 
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
+    .. note:: This driver is not very useful. It was added in the hope of
+              providing portable audio API across all platforms, but turned
+              out semi-broken and underfeatured.
 
-    ``--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

-        changes. "native" lets the sound server determine buffers.
+    ``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``.
 
-    ``--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``.
+``dsound`` (Windows only)
+    DirectX DirectSound audio output driver
 
-    ``--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.
+    .. note:: This driver is for compatibility with old systems.
+
+    ``device=<devicenum>``
+        Sets the device number to use. Playing a file with ``-v`` will show a
+        list of available devices.
+
+    ``buffersize=<ms>``
+        DirectSound buffer size in milliseconds (default: 200).
 
 ``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
+    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.
 
     .. 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>``
+    ``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. You can use
-    ``--ao=null --ao-null-untimed`` for benchmarking.

-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
-
-    ``--ao-null-untimed``
+    ``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``
+    ``buffer``
         Simulated buffer length in seconds.
 
-    ``--ao-null-outburst``
+    ``outburst``
         Simulated chunk size in samples.
 
-    ``--ao-null-speed``
+    ``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.
+        just a little, and this option helps simulating this.
 
-    ``--ao-null-latency``
+    ``latency``
         Simulated device latency. This is additional to EOF.
 
-    ``--ao-null-broken-eof``
+    ``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>``
+    ``(no-)waveheader``
         Include or do not include the WAVE header (default: included). When
         not included, raw PCM will be generated.
-    ``--ao-pcm-file=<filename>``
+    ``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.
+
+``rsound``
+    Audio output to an RSound daemon
+
+    .. note:: Completely useless, unless you intend to run RSound. Not to be
+              confused with RoarAudio, which is something completely
+              different.
+
+    ``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:: Experimental. There are known bugs and issues.
+
     (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.
 
-    The following global options are supported by this audio output:
+    ``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.
 
-    ``--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.
+        Also supports searching active devices by name. If more than one
+        device matches the name, refuses loading it.
 
-        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.
+        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.

-CHANGELOG
-=========
+CHANGES FROM OTHER VERSIONS OF MPLAYER
+======================================
 
-There is no real changelog, but you can look at the following things:
+**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, a
+large part of which is incompatible or completely changes how the player
+behaves. Although there are still many similarities to its ancestors, **mpv**
+should generally be treated as a completely different program.
 
-* The release changelog, which should contain most user-visible changes,
-  including new features and bug fixes:
+.. note::
+    These lists are incomplete.
 
-  https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/releases
-* The git log, which is the "real" changelog
-* The file https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/interface-changes.rst
-  documents changes to the command and user interface, such as options and
-  properties.
-* C API changes are listed in
-  https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/client-api-changes.rst
-* The file ``mplayer-changes.rst`` in the ``DOCS`` sub directory on the git
-  repository, which used to be in place of this section. It documents some
-  changes that happened since mplayer2 forked off MPlayer. (Not updated
-  anymore.)
+General Changes from MPlayer to mpv
+-----------------------------------
+
+This listing is about changes introduced by mplayer2 and mpv relatively to
+MPlayer.
+
+Player
+~~~~~~
+
+* New name for the binary (``mpv``). New location for config files (either
+  ``~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf``, or if you want, ``~/.mpv/config``).
+* Encoding functionality (replacement for MEncoder, see the `ENCODING`_ section).
+* Support for Lua scripting (see the `LUA SCRIPTING`_ section).
+* Better pause handling (e.g. do not unpause on a command).
+* Precise seeking support.
+* Improvements in audio/video sync handling.
+* Do not lose settings when playing a new file in the same player instance.
+* Slave mode compatibility broken (see below).
+* Re-enable screensaver while the player is paused.
+* Allow resuming playback at a later point with ``Shift+q``, also see the
+  ``quit_watch_later`` input command.
+* ``--keep-open`` option to stop the player from closing the window and
+  exiting after playback ends.
+* A client API, that allows embedding **mpv** into applications
+  (see ``libmpv/client.h`` in the sources).
+
+Input
+~~~~~
+
+* Improved default keybindings. MPlayer bindings are also available (see
+  ``etc/mplayer-input.conf`` in the source tree).
+* Improved responsiveness on user input.
+* Support for modifier keys (alt, shift, ctrl) in input.conf.
+* Allow customizing whether a key binding for seeking shows the video time, the
+  OSD bar, or nothing (see the `Input Command Prefixes`_ section).
+* Support mapping multiple commands to one key.
+
+Audio
+~~~~~
+
+* Support for gapless audio (see the ``--gapless-audio`` option).
+* Support for OSS4 volume control.
+* Improved support for PulseAudio.
+* Make ``--softvol`` default (**mpv** is not a mixer control panel).
+* By default, do pitch correction if playback speed is increased.
+* Improved downmixing and output of surround audio:
+
+  - Instead of using hardcoded pan filters to do remixing, libavresample is used
+  - Channel maps are used to identify the channel layout, so e.g. ``3.0`` and
+    ``2.1`` audio can be distinguished.
+
+Video
+~~~~~
+
+* Wayland support.
+* Native support for VAAPI and VDA. Improved VDPAU video output.
+* Improved OpenGL output (see the ``opengl-hq`` video output).
+* Make hardware decoding work with the ``opengl`` video output.
+* 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.
+* More correct color reproduction (color matrix generation).
+* Better subtitle rendering using libass by default.
+* Improvements when playing multiple files (``--fixed-vo`` is default, do not
+  reset settings by default when playing a new file).
+* Replace image video outputs (``--vo=jpeg`` etc.) with ``--vo=image``.
+* Removal of ``--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 for image subs can be disabled with ``--sub-gray``).
+
+OSD and terminal
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Cleaned up terminal output: nicer status line, less useless noise.
+* Improved OSD rendering using libass, with full Unicode support.
+* New OSD bar with chapter marks. Not positioned in the middle of the video
+  (this can be customized with the ``--osd-bar-align-y`` option).
+* Display list of chapters and audio/subtitle tracks on OSD (see the
+  `Properties`_ section).
+
+Screenshots
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Instant screenshots without 1-frame delay.
+* Support for taking screenshots even with hardware decoding.
+* Support for saving screenshots as JPEG or PNG.
+* Support for configurable file names.
+* Support for taking screenshots with or without subtitles.
+
+Note that the ``screenshot`` video filter is not needed anymore, and should not
+be put into the mpv config file.
+
+Miscellaneous
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Better MKV support (e.g. ordered chapters, 3D metadata).
+* Matroska edition switching at runtime.
+* Support for playing URLs of popular streaming sites directly.
+  (e.g. ``mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...``).
+  Requires a recent version of ``youtube-dl`` to be installed. Can be
+  disabled with ``ytdl=no`` in the mpv config file.
+* Support for precise scrolling which scales the parameter of commands. If the
+  input doesn't support precise scrolling the scale factor stays 1.
+* 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).
+* Improved support for .cue files.
+
+Mac OS X
+~~~~~~~~
+
+* Native OpenGL backend.
+* Cocoa event loop is independent from MPlayer's event loop, so user
+  actions like accessing menus and live resizing do not block the playback.
+* Apple Remote support.
+* Media Keys support.
+* VDA support using libavcodec hwaccel API instead of FFmpeg's decoder with up
+  to 2-2.5x reduction in CPU usage.
+
+Windows
+~~~~~~~
+
+* Improved support for Unicode file names.
+* Improved window handling.
+* Do not block playback when moving the window.
+* Improved Direct3D video output.
+* Added WASAPI audio output.
+
+Internal changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Switch to GPLv2+ (see ``Copyright`` file for details).
+* Removal of lots of cruft:
+
+  - Internal GUI (replaced by the OSC, see the `ON SCREEN CONTROLLER`_ section).
+  - MEncoder (replaced by native encoding, see the `ENCODING`_ section).
+  - OSD menu.
+  - Kernel video drivers for Linux 2.4 (including VIDIX).
+  - Teletext support.
+  - Support for dead platforms.
+  - Most built-in demuxers have been replaced by their libavformat counterparts.
+  - Built-in network support has been replaced by libavformat's (which also
+    supports https URLs).
+  - Embedded copies of libraries (such as FFmpeg).
+
+* General code cleanups (including refactoring or rewrites of many parts).
+* New build system.
+* Many bug fixes and removal of long-standing issues.
+* Generally preferring FFmpeg/Libav over internal demuxers, decoders, and
+  filters.
+
+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. However, the new syntax is mentioned in
+  all documentation and so on, and unlike the old syntax is not ambiguous,
+  so it is a good thing to know about this change.
+* In general, negating switches like ``-noopt`` now have to be written as
+  ``-no-opt`` or ``--no-opt``.
+* Per-file options are not the default anymore. You can explicitly specify
+  file-local options. See ``Usage`` section.
+* Many options have been renamed, removed or changed semantics. Some options
+  that are required for a good playback experience with MPlayer are now
+  superfluous or even worse than the defaults, so make sure to read the manual
+  before trying to use your existing configuration with **mpv**.
+* Table of renamed/replaced switches:

+input.conf and Slave Commands

+    commands, a warning will be printed when starting the player. The warnings
+    also show the replacement commands.
+
+    Properties containing ``_`` to separate words use ``-`` instead.

+
+    .. note::
+
+        Due to lack of hardware and users using the TV/DVB/PVR features, and
+        due to the need to cleanup the related command code, it's possible
+        that the new commands are buggy or behave worse. This can be improved
+        if testers are available. Otherwise, some of the TV code will be
+        removed at some point.
+
+Slave mode
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Slave mode was removed. 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 since initial improvements to **mpv** quickly
+  made slave mode incompatible to most applications, it was removed as useless
+  cruft. The client API (see below) is provided instead.
+
+  ``--identify`` was replaced by the ``TOOLS/mpv_identify.sh`` wrapper script.
+
+* For some time (until including release 0.4.x), mpv supported a
+  ``--slave-broken`` option. The following options are equivalent:
+
+  ::
+
+        --input-file=/dev/stdin --input-terminal=no
+
+
+  Assuming the system supports ``/dev/stdin``.
+
+  (The option was readded in 0.5.1 and sets exactly these options.)
+
+* A JSON RPC protocol giving access to the client API is also supported. See
+  `JSON IPC`_ for more information.
+
+* **mpv** also provides a client API, which can be used to embed the player
+  by loading it as shared library. (See ``libmpv/client.h`` in the sources.)
+  It might also be possible to implement a custom slave mode-like protocol
+  using Lua scripting.
+
+Policy for Removed Features
+---------------------------
+
+**mpv** is in active development. If something is in the way of more important
+development (such as fixing bugs or implementing new features), we sometimes
+remove features. Usually this happens only with old features that either seem
+to be useless, or are not used by anyone. Often these are obscure, or
+"inherited", or were marked experimental, but never received any particular
+praise by any users.
+
+Sometimes, features are replaced by something new. The new code will be either
+simpler or more powerful, but doesn't necessarily provide everything the old
+feature did.
+
+We can not exclude that we accidentally remove features that are actually
+popular. Generally, we do not know how much a specific functionality is used.
+If you miss a feature and think it should be re-added, please open an issue
+on the mpv bug tracker. Hopefully, a solution can be found. Often, it turns
+out that re-adding something is not much of a problem, or that there are
+better alternatives.
+
+Why this Fork?
+--------------
+
+mplayer2 is practically dead, and mpv started out as a branch containing
+new/experimental development. (Some of it was merged right *after* the fork
+was made public, seemingly as an acknowledgment that development, or at
+least merging, should have been more active.)
+
+MPlayer is focused on not breaking anything, but is stuck with a horrible
+codebase resistant to cleanup. (Unless you do what mpv did - merciless and
+consequent pruning of bad, old code.) Cleanup and keeping broken things
+conflict, so the kind of development mpv strives for can't be done within
+MPlayer due to clashing development policies.
+
+Additionally, mplayer2 already had lots of changes over MPlayer, which would
+have needed to be backported to the MPlayer codebase. This would not only
+have been hard (several years of diverging development), but also would have
+been impossible due to the aforementioned MPlayer development policy.

-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.

-Command Prompt example
-----------------------
-
-Unfortunately, it's not as easy to test the IPC protocol on Windows, since
-Windows ports of socat (in Cygwin and MSYS2) don't understand named pipes. In
-the absence of a simple tool to send and receive from bidirectional pipes, the

-    echo show-text ${playback-time} >\\.\pipe\mpvsocket

-To be able to simultaneously read and write from the IPC pipe, like on Linux,

 Protocol
 --------
 
-The protocol uses UTF-8-only JSON as defined by RFC-8259. Unlike standard JSON,

-getting conflicts, encode all text characters including and above codepoint
-U+0020 as UTF-8. mpv might output broken UTF-8 in corner cases (see "UTF-8"

@@ -115,110 +48,18 @@ mpv will also send events to clients with JSON messages of the following form:
 where ``event_name`` is the name of the event. Additional event-specific fields
 can also be present. See `List of events`_ for a list of all supported events.
 
-Because events can occur at any time, it may be difficult at times to determine
-which response goes with which command. Commands may optionally include a
-``request_id`` which, if provided in the command request, will be copied
-verbatim into the response. mpv does not interpret the ``request_id`` in any
-way; it is solely for the use of the requester. The only requirement is that
-the ``request_id`` field must be an integer (a number without fractional parts
-in the range ``-2^63..2^63-1``). Using other types is deprecated and will
-currently show a warning. In the future, this will raise an error.
-
-For example, this request:
-
-::
-
-    { "command": ["get_property", "time-pos"], "request_id": 100 }
-
-Would generate this response:
-
-::
-
-    { "error": "success", "data": 1.468135, "request_id": 100 }
-
-If you don't specify a ``request_id``, command replies will set it to 0.
-
-All commands, replies, and events are separated from each other with a line
-break character (``\n``).
-
 If the first character (after skipping whitespace) is not ``{``, the command
 will be interpreted as non-JSON text command, as they are used in input.conf
-(or ``mpv_command_string()`` in the client API). Additionally, lines starting
+(or ``mpv_command_string()`` in the client API). Additionally, line starting
 with ``#`` and empty lines are ignored.
 
 Currently, embedded 0 bytes terminate the current line, but you should not
 rely on this.
 
-Data flow
----------
-
-Currently, the mpv-side IPC implementation does not service the socket while a
-command is executed and the reply is written. It is for example not possible
-that other events, that happened during the execution of the command, are
-written to the socket before the reply is written.
-
-This might change in the future. The only guarantee is that replies to IPC
-messages are sent in sequence.
-
-Also, since socket I/O is inherently asynchronous, it is possible that you read
-unrelated event messages from the socket, before you read the reply to the
-previous command you sent. In this case, these events were queued by the mpv
-side before it read and started processing your command message.
-
-If the mpv-side IPC implementation switches away from blocking writes and
-blocking command execution, it may attempt to send events at any time.
-
-You can also use asynchronous commands, which can return in any order, and
-which do not block IPC protocol interaction at all while the command is
-executed in the background.
-
-Asynchronous commands
----------------------
-
-Command can be run asynchronously. This behaves exactly as with normal command
-execution, except that execution is not blocking. Other commands can be sent
-while it's executing, and command completion can be arbitrarily reordered.
-
-The ``async`` field controls this. If present, it must be a boolean. If missing,
-``false`` is assumed.
-
-For example, this initiates an asynchronous command:
-
-::
-
-    { "command": ["screenshot"], "request_id": 123, "async": true }
-
-And this is the completion:
-
-::
-
-    {"request_id":123,"error":"success","data":null}
-
-By design, you will not get a confirmation that the command was started. If a
-command is long running, sending the message will not lead to any reply until
-much later when the command finishes.
-
-Some commands execute synchronously, but these will behave like asynchronous
-commands that finished execution immediately.
-
-Cancellation of asynchronous commands is available in the libmpv API, but has
-not yet been implemented in the IPC protocol.
-
-Commands with named arguments
------------------------------
-
-If the ``command`` field is a JSON object, named arguments are expected. This
-is described in the C API ``mpv_command_node()`` documentation (the
-``MPV_FORMAT_NODE_MAP`` case). In some cases, this may make commands more
-readable, while some obscure commands basically require using named arguments.

-JAVASCRIPT
-==========
-
-JavaScript support in mpv is near identical to its Lua support. Use this section
-as reference on differences and availability of APIs, but otherwise you should
-refer to the Lua documentation for API details and general scripting in mpv.
-
-Example
--------
-
-JavaScript code which leaves fullscreen mode when the player is paused:
-
-::
-
-    function on_pause_change(name, value) {
-        if (value == true)
-            mp.set_property("fullscreen", "no");
-    }
-    mp.observe_property("pause", "bool", on_pause_change);
-
-
-Similarities with Lua
----------------------
-
-mpv tries to load a script file as JavaScript if it has a ``.js`` extension, but
-otherwise, the documented Lua options, script directories, loading, etc apply to
-JavaScript files too.
-
-Script initialization and lifecycle is the same as with Lua, and most of the Lua
-functions in the modules ``mp``, ``mp.utils``, ``mp.msg``, ``mp.options`` and
-``mp.input`` are available to JavaScript with identical APIs - including running
-commands, getting/setting properties, registering events/key-bindings/hooks,
-etc.
-
-Differences from Lua
---------------------
-
-No need to load modules. ``mp``, ``mp.utils``,  ``mp.msg``, ``mp.options`` and
-``mp.input`` are preloaded, and you can use e.g. ``var cwd =
-mp.utils.getcwd();`` without prior setup.
-
-Errors are slightly different. Where the Lua APIs return ``nil`` for error,
-the JavaScript ones return ``undefined``. Where Lua returns ``something, error``
-JavaScript returns only ``something`` - and makes ``error`` available via
-``mp.last_error()``. Note that only some of the functions have this additional
-``error`` value - typically the same ones which have it in Lua.
-
-Standard APIs are preferred. For instance ``setTimeout`` and ``JSON.stringify``
-are available, but ``mp.add_timeout`` and ``mp.utils.format_json`` are not.
-
-No standard library. This means that interaction with anything outside of mpv is
-limited to the available APIs, typically via ``mp.utils``. However, some file
-functions were added, and CommonJS ``require`` is available too - where the
-loaded modules have the same privileges as normal scripts.
-
-Language features - ECMAScript 5
---------------------------------
-
-The scripting backend which mpv currently uses is MuJS - a compatible minimal
-ES5 interpreter. As such, ``String.substring`` is implemented for instance,
-while the common but non-standard ``String.substr`` is not. Please consult the
-MuJS pages on language features and platform support - https://mujs.com .
-
-Unsupported Lua APIs and their JS alternatives

-``mp.add_timeout(seconds, fn)``  JS: ``id = setTimeout(fn, ms)``
-
-``mp.add_periodic_timer(seconds, fn)``  JS: ``id = setInterval(fn, ms)``

-Additional utilities
---------------------
-
-``mp.last_error()``
-    If used after an API call which updates last error, returns an empty string
-    if the API call succeeded, or a non-empty error reason string otherwise.
-
-``Error.stack`` (string)
-    When using ``try { ... } catch(e) { ... }``, then ``e.stack`` is the stack
-    trace of the error - if it was created using the ``Error(...)`` constructor.
-
-``print`` (global)
-    A convenient alias to ``mp.msg.info``.
-
-``dump`` (global)
-    Like ``print`` but also expands objects and arrays recursively.
-
-``mp.utils.getenv(name)``
-    Returns the value of the host environment variable ``name``, or
-    ``undefined`` if the variable is not defined.
-
-``mp.utils.get_user_path(path)``
-    Trivial wrapper of the ``expand-path`` mpv command, returns a string.
-    ``read_file``, ``write_file``, ``append_file`` and ``require`` already
-    expand the path internally and accept mpv meta-paths like ``~~desktop/foo``.
-
-``mp.utils.read_file(fname [,max])``
-    Returns the content of file ``fname`` as string. If ``max`` is provided and
-    not negative, limit the read to ``max`` bytes.
-
-``mp.utils.write_file(fname, str)``
-    (Over)write file ``fname`` with text content ``str``. ``fname`` must be
-    prefixed with ``file://`` as simple protection against accidental arguments
-    switch, e.g. ``mp.utils.write_file("file://~/abc.txt", "hello world")``.
-
-``mp.utils.append_file(fname, str)``
-    Same as ``mp.utils.write_file`` if the file ``fname`` does not exist. If it
-    does exist then append instead of overwrite.
-
-Note: ``read_file``, ``write_file`` and ``append_file`` throw on errors, allow
-text content only.
-
-``mp.get_time_ms()``
-    Same as ``mp.get_time()`` but in ms instead of seconds.
-
-``mp.get_script_file()``
-    Returns the file name of the current script.
-
-``mp.utils.compile_js(fname, content_str)``
-    Compiles the JS code ``content_str`` as file name ``fname`` (without loading
-    anything from the filesystem), and returns it as a function. Very similar
-    to a ``Function`` constructor, but shows at stack traces as ``fname``.
-
-``mp.module_paths``
-    Global modules search paths array for the ``require`` function (see below).
-
-Timers (global)
----------------
-
-The standard HTML/node.js timers are available:
-
-``id = setTimeout(fn [,duration [,arg1 [,arg2...]]])``
-
-``id = setTimeout(code_string [,duration])``
-
-``clearTimeout(id)``
-
-``id = setInterval(fn [,duration [,arg1 [,arg2...]]])``
-
-``id = setInterval(code_string [,duration])``
-
-``clearInterval(id)``
-
-``setTimeout`` and ``setInterval`` return id, and later call ``fn`` (or execute
-``code_string``) after ``duration`` ms. Interval also repeat every ``duration``.
-
-``duration`` has a minimum and default value of 0, ``code_string`` is
-a plain string which is evaluated as JS code, and ``[,arg1 [,arg2..]]`` are used
-as arguments (if provided) when calling back ``fn``.
-
-The ``clear...(id)`` functions cancel timer ``id``, and are irreversible.
-
-Note: timers always call back asynchronously, e.g. ``setTimeout(fn)`` will never
-call ``fn`` before returning. ``fn`` will be called either at the end of this
-event loop iteration or at a later event loop iteration. This is true also for
-intervals - which also never call back twice at the same event loop iteration.
-
-Additionally, timers are processed after the event queue is empty, so it's valid
-to use ``setTimeout(fn)`` as a one-time idle observer.
-
-CommonJS modules and ``require(id)``
-------------------------------------
-
-CommonJS Modules are a standard system where scripts can export common functions
-for use by other scripts. Specifically, a module is a script which adds
-properties (functions, etc) to its pre-existing ``exports`` object, which
-another script can access with ``require(module-id)``. This runs the module and
-returns its ``exports`` object. Further calls to ``require`` for the same module
-will return its cached ``exports`` object without running the module again.
-
-Modules and ``require`` are supported, standard compliant, and generally similar
-to node.js. However, most node.js modules won't run due to missing modules such
-as ``fs``, ``process``, etc, but some node.js modules with minimal dependencies
-do work. In general, this is for mpv modules and not a node.js replacement.
-
-A ``.js`` file extension is always added to ``id``, e.g. ``require("./foo")``
-will load the file ``./foo.js`` and return its ``exports`` object.
-
-An id which starts with ``./`` or ``../`` is relative to the script or module
-which ``require`` it. Otherwise it's considered a top-level id (CommonJS term).
-
-Top-level id is evaluated as absolute filesystem path if possible, e.g. ``/x/y``
-or ``~/x``. Otherwise it's considered a global module id and searched according
-to ``mp.module_paths`` in normal array order, e.g. ``require("x")`` tries to
-load ``x.js`` at one of the array paths, and id ``foo/x`` tries to load ``x.js``
-inside dir ``foo`` at one of the paths.
-
-The ``mp.module_paths`` array is empty by default except for scripts which are
-loaded as a directory where it contains one item - ``<directory>/modules/`` .
-The array may be updated from a script (or using custom init - see below) which
-will affect future calls to ``require`` for global module id's which are not
-already loaded/cached.
-
-No ``global`` variable, but a module's ``this`` at its top lexical scope is the
-global object - also in strict mode. If you have a module which needs ``global``
-as the global object, you could do ``this.global = this;`` before ``require``.
-
-Functions and variables declared at a module don't pollute the global object.
-
-Custom initialization
----------------------
-
-After mpv initializes the JavaScript environment for a script but before it
-loads the script - it tries to run the file ``init.js`` at the root of the mpv
-configuration directory. Code at this file can update the environment further
-for all scripts. E.g. if it contains ``mp.module_paths.push("/foo")`` then
-``require`` at all scripts will search global module id's also at ``/foo``
-(do NOT do ``mp.module_paths = ["/foo"];`` because this will remove existing
-paths - like ``<script-dir>/modules`` for scripts which load from a directory).
-
-The custom-init file is ignored if mpv is invoked with ``--no-config``.
-
-The event loop
---------------
-
-The event loop poll/dispatch mpv events as long as the queue is not empty, then
-processes the timers, then waits for the next event, and repeats this forever.
-
-You could put this code at your script to replace the built-in event loop, and
-also print every event which mpv sends to your script:
-
-::
-
-    function mp_event_loop() {
-        var wait = 0;
-        do {
-            var e = mp.wait_event(wait);
-            dump(e);  // there could be a lot of prints...
-            if (e.event != "none") {
-                mp.dispatch_event(e);
-                wait = 0;
-            } else {
-                wait = mp.process_timers() / 1000;
-                if (wait != 0) {
-                    mp.notify_idle_observers();
-                    wait = mp.peek_timers_wait() / 1000;
-                }
-            }
-        } while (mp.keep_running);
-    }
-
-
-``mp_event_loop`` is a name which mpv tries to call after the script loads.
-The internal implementation is similar to this (without ``dump`` though..).
-
-``e = mp.wait_event(wait)`` returns when the next mpv event arrives, or after
-``wait`` seconds if positive and no mpv events arrived. ``wait`` value of 0
-returns immediately (with ``e.event == "none"`` if the queue is empty).
-
-``mp.dispatch_event(e)`` calls back the handlers registered for ``e.event``,
-if there are such (event handlers, property observers, script messages, etc).
-
-``mp.process_timers()`` calls back the already-added, non-canceled due timers,
-and returns the duration in ms till the next due timer (possibly 0), or -1 if
-there are no pending timers. Must not be called recursively.
-
-``mp.notify_idle_observers()`` calls back the idle observers, which we do when
-we're about to sleep (wait != 0), but the observers may add timers or take
-non-negligible duration to complete, so we re-calculate ``wait`` afterwards.
-
-``mp.peek_timers_wait()`` returns the same values as ``mp.process_timers()``
-but without doing anything. Invalid result if called from a timer callback.
-
-Note: ``exit()`` is also registered for the ``shutdown`` event, and its
-implementation is a simple ``mp.keep_running = false``.

-EMBEDDING INTO OTHER PROGRAMS (LIBMPV)
-======================================
-
-mpv can be embedded into other programs as video/audio playback backend. The
-recommended way to do so is using libmpv. See ``include/mpv/client.h`` in the mpv
-source code repository. This provides a C API. Bindings for other languages
-might be available (see wiki).
-
-Since libmpv merely allows access to underlying mechanisms that can control
-mpv, further documentation is spread over a few places:
-
-- https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/include/mpv/client.h
-- https://mpv.io/manual/master/#options
-- https://mpv.io/manual/master/#list-of-input-commands
-- https://mpv.io/manual/master/#properties
-- https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv-examples/tree/master/libmpv
-
-C PLUGINS
-=========
-
-You can write C plugins for mpv. These use the libmpv API, although they do not
-use the libmpv library itself.
-
-They are enabled by default if compiler supports linking with the ``-rdynamic``
-flag on Linux/BSD platforms. On Windows they are always enabled.
-
-C plugins location
-------------------
-
-C plugins are put into the mpv scripts directory in its config directory
-(see the `FILES`_ section for details). They must have a ``.so`` or ``.dll``
-file extension. They can also be explicitly loaded with the ``--script`` option.
-
-API
----
-
-A C plugin must export the following function::
-
-    int mpv_open_cplugin(mpv_handle *handle)
-
-The plugin function will be called on loading time. This function must not
-return as long as your plugin is loaded (it runs in its own thread). The
-``handle`` will be deallocated as soon as the plugin function returns.
-
-The return value is interpreted as error status. A value of ``0`` is
-interpreted as success, while ``-1`` signals an error. In the latter case,
-the player prints an uninformative error message that loading failed.
-
-Return values other than ``0`` and ``-1`` are reserved, and trigger undefined
-behavior.
-
-Within the plugin function, you can call libmpv API functions. The ``handle``
-is created by ``mpv_create_client()`` (or actually an internal equivalent),
-and belongs to you. You can call ``mpv_wait_event()`` to wait for things
-happening, and so on. However do not call ``mpv_destroy()`` or
-``mpv_terminate_destroy()`` on this handle.
-
-Note that the player might block until your plugin calls ``mpv_wait_event()``
-for the first time. This gives you a chance to install initial hooks etc.
-before playback begins.
-
-The details are quite similar to Lua scripts.
-
-Linkage to libmpv
------------------
-
-The current implementation requires that your plugins are **not** linked against
-libmpv. What your plugins use are not symbols from a libmpv binary, but
-symbols from the mpv host binary.
-
-On Windows to make symbols from the host binary available, you have to define
-MPV_CPLUGIN_DYNAMIC_SYM when compiling cplugin. This will load symbols
-dynamically, before calling ``mpv_open_cplugin()``.
