Fixes:
autoload.lua:201:1: setting undefined field filter of global table
autoload.lua:209:1: setting undefined field append of global table
autoload.lua:322:11: value assigned to variable extensions is unused
Autoload script can now exclude certain files
Why? Sometimes you want to ignore thumbnails,
auto-generated backups or just unwanted files
A non-exhaustive list of real-world examples:
- user backup files: '%.bak%.mp4$' or '^bak-'
- telegram-desktop thumbnails: '_thumb%.jpg$'
- a krita graphics editor backup suffix: '^~'

I don't actually deinterlace ever but allegedly this is better than
yadif, and there's no real reason to not have this be the fallback
deinterlace when we're not using hw frames. Also change various mentions
of yadif to bwdif. Ref #12835.
mp.observe_property('foo', nil, ...) calls the handler at least 2 times
on each playlist change even when the property doesn't change. This is
dangerous because if you haven't read observe_property's documentation
in a long time this is easy to forget, and you can end up using it for
handlers that are computationally expensive or that cause unintended
side effects.
Therefore, this commit discourages its use more explicitly in the
documentation, and replaces its usages in scripts.
For console.lua, observing focused with type nil leads to calling
mp.osd_message('') when changing file while playing in the terminal with
the console disabled. I don't notice issues from this, but it's safer to
avoid it.
For playlist and track-list this doesn't really matter since they
trigger multiple changes on each new file anyway, but changing it can
avoid encouraging people to imitate the code.
One usage of none in stats.lua is kept because according to b9084dfd47
it is a hack to replicate the deprecated tick event.
Quickly going through a directory with too many loadable files causes the
autoload tasks to pile up and exiting the player will take forever. Avoid
this by skipping loading when playback is aborted.
This is more stable in practice. Avoids switching between possibly
different hwdecs and avoids unnecessary init. Software decoding should be
more stable and possibly faster overall for decoding this small portion
of video needed for cropdetect.
msg.info for when you're potentially adding hundreds of files is way
too spammy and not really useful (autoload loads files, what?). Bump it
up to msg.verbose. Also bump up the previously existing msg.verbose logs
up to msg.debug to keep the difference in log levels. Fixes#12551.
I didn't set file-local-options/hwdec because you have to store the
hwdec value to restore it after cropdetect anyway, and if the user
manually changes hwdec after cropdetect, the new value isn't reset when
changing file.
If you change file while cropdetect is active and you try to crop the
next video, it fails with "Already cropdetecting!". This is because
timers.detect_crop wasn't cleared correctly, only the timer variable
local to the loop was being set to nil.
This option behaves the same as the builtin one, and if it's value
is anything other then recursive|lazy|ignore it will fall back on the
builtin one as a sort of "auto" mode. It defaults to that auto mode.
Adds support for adding directories to the playlist in addition to
files. The propertiy `directory-mode` controls if directories get added.
Recursive directory loading will get added in a later commit.
Directories get sorted after files to behave the same way mpv
behaves when it loads directories directly.
Gated behind option for backward compatibility.
Note that this will not magically start working with hwdec, as we do not
have crop detection for hwdec.
Under the current file loading logic, a video file and an external
audio track next to it will both be added to the playlist, which
most users don't wish to happen. Having an option that tells the
script to load only one type of files (video, audio, or image)
can avoid this problem. It may also come in handy for people who
have different types of files mixed in a folder but wish to consume
only one type of media at a time.
We used to sort the playlist with playlist-move after every loadfile.
Instead, append all files in order and call playlist-move once to move
the only entry we don't control the position of.
Don't fetch every playlist item separately, reuse native property.
We used to pick up on new files added to the directory, but only when
playing an entry at the edge of the playlist due to an early return.
New files are now added to the playlist on every file change.
This still works as expected and doesn't load duplicate files on
shuffled playlists or playlists with files manually added after autoload
33% faster on average for my test directory with 1371 files.
