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 0.30.0 ---
- rename --opensles-frames-per-buffer to --opensles-frames-per-enqueue to
better reflect its purpose. In the past it overrides the buffer size the AO
requests (but not the default/value of the generic --audio-buffer option).
Now it only guarantees that the soft buffer size will not be smaller than
itself while setting the size per Enqueue.
- add --opensles-buffer-size-in-ms, allowing user to tune the soft buffer size.
It overrides the --audio-buffer option unless it's set to 0 (with the default
being 250).
- remove `--linear-scaling`, replaced by `--linear-upscaling` and
`--linear-downscaling`. This means that `--sigmoid-upscaling` no longer
implies linear light downscaling as well, which was confusing.
- the built-in `gpu-hq` profile now includes` --linear-downscaling`.
--- mpv 0.29.0 ---
- drop --opensles-sample-rate, as --audio-samplerate should be used if desired
- drop deprecated --videotoolbox-format, --ff-aid, --ff-vid, --ff-sid,
--ad-spdif-dtshd, --softvol options
- fix --external-files: strictly never select any tracks from them, unless
explicitly selected (this may or may not be expected)
- --ytdl is now always enabled, even for libmpv
- add a number of --audio-resample-* options, which should from now on be
used instead of --af-defaults=lavrresample:...
- deprecate --vf-defaults and --af-defaults. These didn't work with the
lavfi bridge, so they have very little use left. The only potential use
is with af_lavrresample (going to be deprecated, --audio-resample-... set
its defaults), and various hw deinterlacing filters (like vf_vavpp), for
which you will have to stop using --deinterlace=yes, and instead use the
vf toggle commands and the filter enable/disable flag to customize it.
- deprecate --af=lavrresample. Use the ``--audio-resample-...`` options to
customize resampling, or the libavfilter ``--af=aresample`` filter.
- add --osd-on-seek
- remove outfmt sub-parameter from "format" video filter (no replacement)
- some behavior changes in the video filter chain, including:
- before, using an incompatible filter with hwdec would disable hwdec;
now it disables the filter at runtime instead
- inserting an incompatible filter with hwdec at runtime would refuse
to insert the filter; now it will add it successfully, but disables
the filter slightly later
- some behavior changes in the audio filter chain, including:
- a manually inserted lavrresample filter is not necessarily used for
sample format conversion anymore, so it's pretty useless
- changing playback speed will not respect --af-defaults anymore
- having libavfilter based filters after the scaletempo or rubberband
filters is not supported anymore, and may desync if playback speed is
changed (libavfilter does not support the metadata for playback speed)
- the lavcac3enc filter does not auto detach itself anymore; instead it
passes through the data after converting it to the sample rate and
channel configuration the ac3 encoder expects; also, if the audio
format changes midstream in a way that causes the filter to switch
between PCM and AC3 output, the audio output won't be reconfigured,
and audio playback will fail due to libswresample being unable to
convert between PCM and AC3 (Note: the responsible developer didn't
give a shit. Later changes might have improved or worsened this.)
- inserting a filter that changes the output sample format will not
reconfigure the AO - you need to run an additional "ao-reload"
command to force this if you want that
- using "strong" gapless audio (--gapless-audio=yes) can fail if the
audio formats are not convertible (such as switching between PCM and
AC3 passthrough)
- if filters do not pass through PTS values correctly, A/V sync can
result over time. Some libavfilter filters are known to be affected by
this, such as af_loudnorm, which can desync over time, depending on
how the audio track was muxed (af_lavfi's fix-pts suboption can help).
- remove out-format sub-parameter from "format" audio filter (no replacement)
- --lavfi-complex now requires uniquely named filter pads. In addition,
unconnected filter pads are not allowed anymore (that means every filter
pad must be connected either to another filter, or to a video/audio track
or video/audio output). If they are disconnected at runtime, the stream
will probably stall.
- rename --vo=opengl-cb to --vo=libmpv (goes in hand with the opengl-cb
API deprecation, see client-api-changes.rst)
- deprecate the OpenGL cocoa backend, option choice --gpu-context=cocoa
when used with --gpu-api=opengl (use --vo=libmpv)
- make --deinterlace=yes always deinterlace, instead of trying to check
certain unreliable video metadata. Also flip the defaults of all builtin
HW deinterlace filters to always deinterlace.
- change vf_vavpp default to use the best deinterlace algorithm by default
- remove a compatibility hack that allowed CLI aliases to be set as property
(such as "sub-file"), deprecated in mpv 0.26.0
- deprecate the old command based hook API, and introduce a proper C API
(the high level Lua API for this does not change)
- rename the the lua-settings/ config directory to script-opts/
- the way the player waits for scripts getting loaded changes slightly. Now
scripts are loaded in parallel, and block the player from continuing
playback only in the player initialization phase. It could change again in
the future. (This kind of waiting was always a feature to prevent that
playback is started while scripts are only half-loaded.)
- deprecate --ovoffset, --oaoffset, --ovfirst, --oafirst
- remove the following encoding options: --ocopyts (now the default, old
timestamp handling is gone), --oneverdrop (now default), --oharddup (you
need to use --vf=fps=VALUE), --ofps, --oautofps, --omaxfps
- remove --video-stereo-mode. This option was broken out of laziness, and
nobody wants to fix it. Automatic 3D down-conversion to 2D is also broken,
although you can just insert the stereo3d filter manually. The obscurity
of 3D content doesn't justify such an option anyway.
- change cycle-values command to use the current value, instead of an
internal counter that remembered the current position.
- edition and disc title switching will now fully reload playback (may have
consequences for scripts, client API, or when using file-local options)
- remove deprecated ao/vo auto profiles. Consider using scripts like
auto-profiles.lua instead.
--- mpv 0.28.0 ---
- rename --hwdec=mediacodec option to mediacodec-copy, to reflect
conventions followed by other hardware video decoding APIs
- drop previously deprecated --heartbeat-cmd and --heartbeat--interval
options
- rename --vo=opengl to --vo=gpu
- rename --opengl-backend to --gpu-context
- rename --opengl-shaders to --glsl-shaders
- rename --opengl-shader-cache-dir to --gpu-shader-cache-dir
- rename --opengl-tex-pad-x/y to --gpu-tex-pad-x/y
- rename --opengl-fbo-format to --fbo-format
- rename --opengl-gamma to --gamma-factor
- rename --opengl-debug to --gpu-debug
- rename --opengl-sw to --gpu-sw
- rename --opengl-vsync-fences to --swapchain-depth, and the interpretation
slightly changed. Now defaults to 3.
- rename the built-in profile `opengl-hq` to `gpu-hq`
- the semantics of --opengl-es=yes are slightly changed -> now requires GLES
- remove the (deprecated) alias --gpu-context=drm-egl
- remove the (deprecated) --vo=opengl-hq
- remove --opengl-es=force2 (use --opengl-es=yes --opengl-restrict=300)
- the --msg-level option now affects --log-file
- drop "audio-out-detected-device" property - this was unavailable on all
audio output drivers for quite a while (coreaudio used to provide it)
- deprecate --videotoolbox-format (use --hwdec-image-format, which affects
most other hwaccels)
- remove deprecated --demuxer-max-packets
- remove most of the deprecated audio and video filters
- remove the deprecated --balance option/property
- rename the --opengl-hwdec-interop option to --gpu-hwdec-interop, and
change some of its semantics: extend it take the strings "auto" and
"all". "all" loads all backends. "auto" behaves like "all" for
vo_opengl_cb, while on vo_gpu it loads nothing, but allows on demand
loading by the decoder. The empty string as option value behaves like
"auto". Old --hwdec values do not work anymore.
This option is hereby declared as unstable and may change any time - its
old use is deprecated, and it has very little use outside of debugging
now.
- change the --hwdec option from a choice to a plain string (affects
introspection of the option/property), also affects some properties
- rename --hwdec=rpi to --hwdec=mmal, same for the -copy variant (no
backwards compatibility)
- deprecate the --ff-aid, --ff-vid, --ff-sid options and properties (there is
no replacement, but you can manually query the track property and use the
"ff-index" field to find the mpv track ID to imitate this behavior)
- rename --no-ometadata to --no-ocopy-metadata
--- mpv 0.27.0 ---
- drop previously deprecated --field-dominance option
- drop previously deprecated "osd" command
- remove client API compatibility handling for "script", "sub-file",
"audio-file", "external-file" (these cases used to log a deprecation
warning)
- drop deprecated --video-aspect-method=hybrid option choice
- rename --hdr-tone-mapping to --tone-mapping (and generalize it)
- --opengl-fbo-format changes from a choice to a string. Also, its value
will be checked only on renderer initialization, rather than when the
option is set.
- Using opengl-cb now always assumes 8 bit per component depth, and dithers
to this size. Before, it tried to figure out the depth of the first
framebuffer that was ever passed to the renderer. Having GL framebuffers
with a size larger than 8 bit per component is quite rare. If you need
it, set the --dither-depth option instead.
- --lavfi-complex can now be set during runtime. If you set this in
expectation it would be applied only after a reload, you might observe
weird behavior.
- add --track-auto-selection to help with scripts/applications that
make exclusive use of --lavfi-complex.
- undeprecate --loop, and map it from --loop-playlist to --loop-file (the
deprecation was to make sure no API user gets broken by a sudden behavior
change)
- remove previously deprecated vf_eq
- remove that hardware deinterlace filters (vavpp, d3d11vpp, vdpaupp)
changed their deinterlacing-enabled setting depending on what the
--deinterlace option or property was set to. Now, a filter always does
what its filter options and defaults imply. The --deinterlace option and
property strictly add/remove its own filters. For example, if you run
"mpv --vf=vavpp --deinterlace=yes", this will insert another, redundant
filter, which is probably not what you want. For toggling a deinterlace
filter manually, use the "vf toggle" command, and do not set the
deinterlace option/property. To customize the filter that will be
inserted automatically, use --vf-defaults. Details how this works will
probably change in the future.
- remove deinterlace=auto (this was not deprecated, but had only a very
obscure use that stopped working with the change above. It was also
prone to be confused with a feature not implemented by it: auto did _not_
mean that deinterlacing was enabled on demand.)
- add shortened mnemonic names for mouse button bindings, eg. mbtn_left
the old numeric names (mouse_btn0) are deprecated
- remove mouse_btn3_dbl and up, since they are only generated for buttons
0-2 (these now print an error when sent from the 'mouse' command)
- rename the axis bindings to wheel_up/down/etc. axis scrolling and mouse
wheel scrolling are now conceptually the same thing
the old axis_up/down names remain as deprecated aliases
--- mpv 0.26.0 ---
- remove remaining deprecated audio device options, like --alsa-device
Some of them were removed in earlier releases.
- introduce --replaygain... options, which replace the same functionality
provided by the deprecated --af=volume:replaygain... mechanism.
- drop the internal "mp-rawvideo" codec (used by --demuxer=rawvideo)
- rename --sub-ass-style-override to --sub-ass-override, and rename the
`--sub-ass-override=signfs` setting to `--sub-ass-override=scale`.
- change default of --video-aspect-method to "bitstream". The "hybrid"
method (old default) is deprecated.
- remove property "video-params/nom-peak"
- remove option --target-brightness
- replace vf_format's `peak` suboption by `sig-peak`, which is relative to
the reference white level instead of in cd/m^2
- renamed the TRCs `st2084` and `std-b67` to `pq` and `hlg` respectively
- the "osd" command is deprecated (use "cycle osd-level")
- --field-dominance is deprecated (use --vf=setfield=bff or tff)
- --really-quiet subtle behavior change
- the deprecated handling of setting "no-" options via client API is dropped
- the following options change to append-by-default (and possibly separator):
--script
also, the following options are deprecated:
--sub-paths => --sub-file-paths
the following options are deprecated for setting via API:
"script" (use "scripts")
"sub-file" (use "sub-files")
"audio-file" (use "audio-files")
"external-file" (use "external-files")
(the compatibility hacks for this will be removed after this release)
- remove property `vo-performance`, and add `vo-passes` as a more general
replacement
- deprecate passing multiple arguments to -add/-pre options (affects the
vf/af commands too)
- remove --demuxer-lavf-cryptokey. Use --demux-lavf-o=cryptokey=<hex> or
--demux-lavf-o=decryption_key=<hex> instead (whatever fits your situation).
- rename --opengl-dumb-mode=no to --opengl-dumb-mode=auto, and make `no`
always disable it (unless forced on by hardware limitation).
- generalize --scale-clamp, --cscale-clamp etc. to accept a float between
0.0 and 1.0 instead of just being a flag. A value of 1.0 corresponds to
the old `yes`, and a value of 0.0 corresponds to the old `no`.
--- mpv 0.25.0 ---
- remove opengl-cb dxva2 dummy hwdec interop
(see git "vo_opengl: remove dxva2 dummy hwdec backend")
- remove ppm, pgm, pgmyuv, tga choices from the --screenshot-format and
--vo-image-format options
- the "jpeg" choice in the option above now leads to a ".jpg" file extension
- --af=drc is gone (you can use e.g. lavfi/acompressor instead)
- remove image_size predefined uniform from OpenGL user shaders. Use
input_size instead
- add --sub-filter-sdh
- add --sub-filter-sdh-harder
- remove --input-app-events option (macOS)
- deprecate most --vf and --af filters. Only some filters not in libavfilter
will be kept.
Also, you can use libavfilter filters directly (e.g. you can use
--vf=name=opts instead of --vf=lavfi=[name=opts]), as long as the
libavfilter filter's name doesn't clash with a mpv builtin filter.
In the long term, --vf/--af syntax might change again, but if it does, it
will switch to libavfilter's native syntax. (The above mentioned direct
support for lavfi filters still has some differences, such as how strings
are escaped.) If this happens, the non-deprecated builtin filters might be
moved to "somewhere else" syntax-wise.
- deprecate --loop - after a deprecation period, it will be undeprecated,
but changed to alias --loop-file
- add --keep-open-pause=no
- deprecate --demuxer-max-packets
- change --audio-file-auto default from "exact" to "no" (mpv won't load
files with the same filename as the video, but different extension, as
audio track anymore)
--- mpv 0.24.0 ---
- deprecate --hwdec-api and replace it with --opengl-hwdec-interop.
The new option accepts both --hwdec values, as well as named backends.
A minor difference is that --hwdec-api=no (which used to be the default)
now actually does not preload any interop layer, while the new default
("") uses the value of --hwdec.
- drop deprecated --ad/--vd features
- drop deprecated --sub-codepage syntax
- rename properties:
- "drop-frame-count" to "decoder-frame-drop-count"
- "vo-drop-frame-count" to "frame-drop-count"
The old names still work, but are deprecated.
- remove the --stream-capture option and property. No replacement.
(--record-file might serve as alternative)
- add --sub-justify
- add --sub-ass-justify
- internally there's a different way to enable the demuxer cache now
it can be auto-enabled even if the stream cache remains disabled
--- mpv 0.23.0 ---
- remove deprecated vf_vdpaurb (use "--hwdec=vdpau-copy" instead)
- the following properties now have new semantics:
- "demuxer" (use "current-demuxer")
- "fps" (use "container-fps")
- "idle" (use "idle-active")
- "cache" (use "cache-percent")
- "audio-samplerate" (use "audio-params/samplerate")
- "audio-channels" (use "audio-params/channel-count")
- "audio-format" (use "audio-codec-name")
(the properties equivalent to the old semantics are in parentheses)
- remove deprecated --vo and --ao sub-options (like --vo=opengl:...), and
replace them with global options. A somewhat complete list can be found
here: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/Option-replacement-list#mpv-0210
- remove --vo-defaults and --ao-defaults as well
- remove deprecated global sub-options (like -demuxer-rawaudio format=...),
use flat options (like --demuxer-rawaudio-format=...)
- the --sub-codepage option changes in incompatible ways:
- detector-selection and fallback syntax is deprecated
- enca/libguess are removed and deprecated (behaves as if they hadn't
been compiled-in)
- --sub-codepage=<codepage> does not force the codepage anymore
(this requires different and new syntax)
- remove --fs-black-out-screens option for macOS
- change how spdif codecs are selected. You can't enable spdif passthrough
with --ad anymore. This was deprecated; use --audio-spdif instead.
- deprecate the "family" selection with --ad/--vd
forcing/excluding codecs with "+", "-", "-" is deprecated as well
- explicitly mark --ad-spdif-dtshd as deprecated (it was done so a long time
ago, but it didn't complain when using the option)
--- mpv 0.22.0 ---
- the "audio-device-list" property now sets empty device description to the
device name as a fallback
- add --hidpi-window-scale option for macOS
- add audiounit audio output for iOS
- make --start-time work with --rebase-start-time=no
- add --opengl-early-flush=auto mode
- add --hwdec=vdpau-copy, deprecate vf_vdpaurb
- add tct video output for true-color and 256-color terminals
--- mpv 0.21.0 ---
- unlike in older versions, setting options at runtime will now take effect
immediately (see for example issue #3281). On the other hand, it will also
do runtime verification and reject option changes that do not work
(example: setting the "vf" option to a filter during playback, which fails
to initialize - the option value will remain at its old value). In general,
"set name value" should be mostly equivalent to "set options/name value"
in cases where the "name" property is not deprecated and "options/name"
exists - deviations from this are either bugs, or documented as caveats
in the "Inconsistencies between options and properties" manpage section.
- deprecate _all_ --vo and --ao suboptions. Generally, all suboptions are
replaced by global options, which do exactly the same. For example,
"--vo=opengl:scale=nearest" turns into "--scale=nearest". In some cases,
the global option is prefixed, e.g. "--vo=opengl:pbo" turns into
"--opengl-pbo".
Most of the exact replacements are documented here:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/Option-replacement-list
- remove --vo=opengl-hq. Set --profile=opengl-hq instead. Note that this
profile does not force the VO. This means if you use the --vo option to
set another VO, it won't work. But this also means it can be used with
opengl-cb.
- remove the --vo=opengl "pre-shaders", "post-shaders" and "scale-shader"
sub-options: they were deprecated in favor of "user-shaders"
- deprecate --vo-defaults (no replacement)
- remove the vo-cmdline command. You can set OpenGL renderer options
directly via properties instead.
- deprecate the device/sink options on all AOs. Use --audio-device instead.
- deprecate "--ao=wasapi:exclusive" and "--ao=coreaudio:exclusive",
use --audio-exclusive instead.
- 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.)
- rename the following properties
- "demuxer" -> "current-demuxer"
- "fps" -> "container-fps"
- "idle" -> "idle-active"
- "cache" -> "cache-percent"
the old names are deprecated and will change behavior in mpv 0.23.0.
- remove deprecated "hwdec-active" and "hwdec-detected" properties
- deprecate the ao and vo auto-profiles (they never made any sense)
- deprecate "--vo=direct3d_shaders" - use "--vo=direct3d" instead.
Change "--vo=direct3d" to always use shaders by default.
- deprecate --playlist-pos option, renamed to --playlist-start
- deprecate the --chapter option, as it is redundant with --start/--end,
and conflicts with the semantics of the "chapter" property
- rename --sub-text-* to --sub-* and --ass-* to --sub-ass-* (old options
deprecated)
- incompatible change to cdda:// protocol options: the part after cdda://
now always sets the device, not the span or speed to be played. No
separating extra "/" is needed. The hidden --cdda-device options is also
deleted (it was redundant with the documented --cdrom-device).
- deprecate --vo=rpi. It will be removed in mpv 0.23.0. Its functionality
was folded into --vo=opengl, which now uses RPI hardware decoding by
treating it as a hardware overlay (without applying GL filtering). Also
to be changed in 0.23.0: the --fs flag will be reset to "no" by default
(like on the other platforms).
- deprecate --mute=auto (informally has been since 0.18.1)
- deprecate "resume" and "suspend" IPC commands. They will be completely
removed in 0.23.0.
- deprecate mp.suspend(), mp.resume(), mp.resume_all() Lua scripting
commands, as well as setting mp.use_suspend. They will be completely
removed in 0.23.0.
- the "seek" command's absolute seek mode will now interpret negative
seek times as relative from the end of the file (and clamps seeks that
still go before 0)
- add almost all options to the property list, meaning you can change
options without adding "options/" to the property name (a new section
has been added to the manpage describing some conflicting behavior
between options and properties)
- implement changing sub-speed during playback
- make many previously fixed options changeable at runtime (for example
--terminal, --osc, --ytdl, can all be enable/disabled after
mpv_initialize() - this can be extended to other still fixed options
on user requests)
--- 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
