Following the discussion in #1253. The events won't be removed for a while, though. (Or maybe never, unless we run out of bits for the uint64_t event mask.) This is not a real change (the events still work, and the alternative mechanisms were established a few API revisions earlier), but for the sake of notifying API users, update DOCS/client-api-changes.rst.

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This file lists all changes that can cause compatibility issues when using
|
|
mpv through the client API (libmpv and ``client.h``). Since the client API
|
|
interfaces to input handling (commands, properties) as well as command line
|
|
options, this list is interesting for other uses of mpv, such as the Lua
|
|
scripting interface, key bindings in ``input.rst``, or plain command line
|
|
usage.
|
|
|
|
Normally, changes to the C API that are incompatible to previous iterations
|
|
receive a major version bump (i.e. the first version number is increased),
|
|
while C API additions bump the minor version (i.e. the second number is
|
|
increased). Changes to properties/commands/options may also lead to a minor
|
|
version bump, in particular if they are incompatible.
|
|
|
|
The version number is the same as used for MPV_CLIENT_API_VERSION (see
|
|
``client.h`` how to convert between major/minor version numbers and the flat
|
|
32 bit integer).
|
|
|
|
Also, read the section ``Compatibility`` in ``client.h``.

API changes
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
1.9 - add enum mpv_end_file_reason for mpv_event_end_file.reason
|
|
- add MPV_END_FILE_REASON_ERROR and the mpv_event_end_file.error field
|
|
for slightly better error reporting on playback failure
|
|
- add --stop-playback-on-init-failure option, and make it the default
|
|
behavior for libmpv only
|
|
- add qthelper.hpp set_option_variant()
|
|
- mark the following events as deprecated:
|
|
MPV_EVENT_TRACKS_CHANGED
|
|
MPV_EVENT_TRACK_SWITCHED
|
|
MPV_EVENT_PAUSE
|
|
MPV_EVENT_UNPAUSE
|
|
MPV_EVENT_METADATA_UPDATE
|
|
MPV_EVENT_CHAPTER_CHANGE
|
|
They are handled better with mpv_observe_property() as mentioned in
|
|
the documentation comments. They are not removed and still work.
|
|
1.8 - add qthelper.hpp
|
|
1.7 - add mpv_command_node(), mpv_command_node_async()
|
|
1.6 - modify "core-idle" property behavior
|
|
- MPV_EVENT_LOG_MESSAGE now always sends complete lines
|
|
- introduce numeric log levels (mpv_log_level)
|
|
--- mpv 0.6.0 is released ---
|
|
1.5 - change in X11 and "--wid" behavior again. The previous change didn't
|
|
work as expected, and now the behavior can be explicitly controlled
|
|
with the "input-x11-keyboard" option. This is only a temporary
|
|
measure until XEmbed is implemented and confirmed working.
|
|
Note: in 1.6, "input-x11-keyboard" was renamed to "input-vo-keyboard",
|
|
although the old option name still works.
|
|
1.4 - subtle change in X11 and "--wid" behavior
|
|
(this change was added to 0.5.2, and broke some things, see #1090)
|
|
--- mpv 0.5.0 is released ---
|
|
1.3 - add MPV_MAKE_VERSION()
|
|
1.2 - remove "stream-time-pos" property (no replacement)
|
|
1.1 - remap dvdnav:// to dvd://
|
|
- add "--cache-file", "--cache-file-size"
|
|
- add "--colormatrix-primaries" (and property)
|
|
- add "primaries" sub-field to image format properties
|
|
- add "playback-time" property
|
|
- extend the "--start" option; a leading "+", which was previously
|
|
insignificant is now significant
|
|
- add "cache-free" and "cache-used" properties
|
|
- OSX: the "coreaudio" AO spdif code is split into a separate AO
|
|
--- mpv 0.4.0 is released ---
|
|
1.0 - the API is declared stable
|
