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``.
