Now options are accessible through the property list as well, which unifies them to a degree. Not all options support runtime changes (meaning affected components need to be restarted for the options to take effects). Remove from the manpage those properties which are cleanly mapped to options anyway. From the user-perspective they're just options available through the property interface.

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
mpv provides access to its internals via the following means:
|
|
|
|
- options
|
|
- commands
|
|
- properties
|
|
- events
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
This document lists changes to them. New changes are added to the top.

Interface changes
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
--- mpv 0.21.0 ---
|
|
- subtle changes in how "--no-..." options are treated mean that they are
|
|
not accessible under "options/..." anymore (instead, these are resolved
|
|
at parsing time). This does not affect options which start with "--no-",
|
|
but do not use the mechanism for negation options.
|
|
(Also see client API change for API version 1.23.)
|
|
- add almost all options to the property list, meaning you can change
|
|
options without adding "options/" to the property name
|
|
--- mpv 0.20.0 ---
|
|
- add --image-display-duration option - this also means that image duration
|
|
is not influenced by --mf-fps anymore in the general case (this is an
|
|
incompatible change)
|
|
--- mpv 0.19.0 ---
|
|
- deprecate "balance" option/property (no replacement)
|
|
--- mpv 0.18.1 ---
|
|
- deprecate --heartbeat-cmd
|
|
- remove --softvol=no capability:
|
|
- deprecate --softvol, it now does nothing
|
|
- --volume, --mute, and the corresponding properties now always control
|
|
softvol, and behave as expected without surprises (e.g. you can set
|
|
them normally while no audio is initialized)
|
|
- rename --softvol-max to --volume-max (deprecated alias is added)
|
|
- the --volume-restore-data option and property are removed without
|
|
replacement. They were _always_ internal, and used for watch-later
|
|
resume/restore. Now --volume/--mute are saved directly instead.
|
|
- the previous point means resuming files with older watch-later configs
|
|
will print an error about missing --volume-restore-data (which you can
|
|
ignore), and will not restore the previous value
|
|
- as a consequence, volume controls will no longer control PulseAudio
|
|
per-application value, or use the system mixer's per-application
|
|
volume processing
|
|
- system or per-application volume can still be controlled with the
|
|
ao-volume and ao-mute properties (there are no command line options)
|
|
--- mpv 0.18.0 ---
|
|
- now ab-loops are active even if one of the "ab-loop-a"/"-b" properties is
|
|
unset ("no"), in which case the start of the file is used if the A loop
|
|
point is unset, and the end of the file for an unset B loop point
|
|
- deprecate --sub-ass=no option by --ass-style-override=strip
|
|
(also needs --embeddedfonts=no)
|
|
- add "hwdec-interop" and "hwdec-current" properties
|
|
- deprecated "hwdec-active" and "hwdec-detected" properties (to be removed
|
|
in mpv 0.20.0)
|
|
- choice option/property values that are "yes" or "no" will now be returned
|
|
as booleans when using the mpv_node functions in the client API, the
|
|
"native" property accessors in Lua, and the JSON API. They can be set as
|
|
such as well.
|
|
- the VO opengl fbo-format sub-option does not accept "rgb" or "rgba"
|
|
anymore
|
|
- all VO opengl prescalers have been removed (replaced by user scripts)
|
|
--- mpv 0.17.0 ---
|
|
- deprecate "track-list/N/audio-channels" property (use
|
|
"track-list/N/demux-channel-count" instead)
|
|
- remove write access to "stream-pos", and change semantics for read access
|
|
- Lua scripts now don't suspend mpv by default while script code is run
|
|
- add "cache-speed" property
|
|
- rename --input-unix-socket to --input-ipc-server, and make it work on
|
|
Windows too
|
|
- change the exact behavior of the "video-zoom" property
|
|
- --video-unscaled no longer disables --video-zoom and --video-aspect
|
|
To force the old behavior, set --video-zoom=0 and --video-aspect=0
|
|
--- mpv 0.16.0 ---
|
|
- change --audio-channels default to stereo (use --audio-channels=auto to
|
|
get the old default)
|
|
- add --audio-normalize-downmix
|
|
- change the default downmix behavior (--audio-normalize-downmix=yes to get
|
|
the old default)
|
|
- VO opengl custom shaders must now use "sample_pixel" as function name,
|
|
instead of "sample"
|
|
- change VO opengl scaler-resizes-only default to enabled
|
|
- add VO opengl "interpolation-threshold" suboption (introduces new default
|
|
behavior, which can change e.g. ``--video-sync=display-vdrop`` to the
|
|
worse, but is usually what you want)
|
|
- make "volume" and "mute" properties changeable even if no audio output is
|
|
active (this gives not-ideal behavior if --softvol=no is used)
|
|
- add "volume-max" and "mixer-active" properties
|
|
- ignore --input-cursor option for events injected by input commands like
|
|
"mouse", "keydown", etc.
|
|
--- mpv 0.15.0 ---
|
|
- change "yadif" video filter defaults
|
|
--- mpv 0.14.0 ---
|
|
- vo_opengl interpolation now requires --video-sync=display-... to be set
|
|
- change some vo_opengl defaults (including changing tscale)
|
|
- add "vsync-ratio", "estimated-display-fps" properties
|
|
- add --rebase-start-time option
|
|
This is a breaking change to start time handling. Instead of making start
|
|
time handling an aspect of different options and properties (like
|
|
"time-pos" vs. "playback-time"), make it dependent on the new option. For
|
|
compatibility, the "time-start" property now always returns 0, so code
|
|
which attempted to handle rebasing manually will not break.
|
|
--- mpv 0.13.0 ---
|
|
- remove VO opengl-cb frame queue suboptions (no replacement)
|
|
--- mpv 0.12.0 ---
|
|
- remove --use-text-osd (useless; fontconfig isn't a requirement anymore,
|
|
and text rendering is also lazily initialized)
|
|
- some time properties (at least "playback-time", "time-pos",
|
|
"time-remaining", "playtime-remaining") now are unavailable if the time
|
|
is unknown, instead of just assuming that the internal playback position
|
|
is 0
|
|
- add --audio-fallback-to-null option
|
|
- replace vf_format outputlevels suboption with "video-output-levels" global
|
|
property/option; also remove "colormatrix-output-range" property
|
|
- vo_opengl: remove sharpen3/sharpen5 scale filters, add sharpen sub-option
|
|
--- mpv 0.11.0 ---
|
|
- add "af-metadata" property
|
|
--- mpv 0.10.0 ---
|
|
- add --video-aspect-method option
|
|
- add --playlist-pos option
|
|
- add --video-sync* options
|
|
"display-sync-active" property
|
|
"vo-missed-frame-count" property
|
|
"audio-speed-correction" and "video-speed-correction" properties
|
|
- remove --demuxer-readahead-packets and --demuxer-readahead-bytes
|
|
add --demuxer-max-packets and --demuxer-max-bytes
|
|
(the new options are not replacement and have very different semantics)
|
|
- change "video-aspect" property: always settable, even if no video is
|
|
running; always return the override - if no override is set, return
|
|
the video's aspect ratio
|
|
- remove disc-nav (DVD, BD) related properties and commands
|
|
- add "option-info/<name>/set-locally" property
|
|
- add --cache-backbuffer; change --cache-default default to 75MB
|
|
the new total cache size is the sum of backbuffer and the cache size
|
|
specified by --cache-default or --cache
|
|
- add ``track-list/N/audio-channels`` property
|
|
- change --screenshot-tag-colorspace default value
|
|
- add --stretch-image-subs-to-screen
|
|
- add "playlist/N/title" property
|
|
- add --video-stereo-mode=no to disable auto-conversions
|
|
- add --force-seekable, and change default seekability in some cases
|
|
- add vf yadif/vavpp/vdpaupp interlaced-only suboptions
|
|
Also, the option is enabled by default (Except vf_yadif, which has
|
|
it enabled only if it's inserted by the deinterlace property.)
|
|
- add --hwdec-preload
|
|
- add ao coreaudio exclusive suboption
|
|
- add ``track-list/N/forced`` property
|
|
- add audio-params/channel-count and ``audio-params-out/channel-count props.
|
|
- add af volume replaygain-fallback suboption
|
|
- add video-params/stereo-in property
|
|
- add "keypress", "keydown", and "keyup" commands
|
|
- deprecate --ad-spdif-dtshd and enabling passthrough via --ad
|
|
add --audio-spdif as replacement
|
|
- remove "get_property" command
|
|
- remove --slave-broken
|
|
- add vo opengl custom shader suboptions (source-shader, scale-shader,
|
|
pre-shaders, post-shaders)
|
|
- completely change how the hwdec properties work:
|
|
- "hwdec" now reflects the --hwdec option
|
|
- "hwdec-detected" does partially what the old "hwdec" property did
|
|
(and also, "detected-hwdec" is removed)
|
|
- "hwdec-active" is added
|
|
- add protocol-list property
|
|
- deprecate audio-samplerate and audio-channels properties
|
|
(audio-params sub-properties are the replacement)
|
|
- add audio-params and audio-out-params properties
|
|
- deprecate "audio-format" property, replaced with "audio-codec-name"
|
|
- deprecate --media-title, replaced with --force-media-title
|
|
- deprecate "length" property, replaced with "duration"
|
|
- change volume property:
|
|
- the value 100 is now always "unchanged volume" - with softvol, the
|
|
range is 0 to --softvol-max, without it is 0-100
|
|
- the minimum value of --softvol-max is raised to 100
|
|
- remove vo opengl npot suboption
|
|
- add relative seeking by percentage to "seek" command
|
|
- add playlist_shuffle command
|
|
- add --force-window=immediate
