35f43dfacb added a system to write resume files for redirects, i.e.
directories and playlists that mpv expands.
It creates a resume file for each redirect, and for the first redirect
only, it writes a resume file for each segment of its path, without even
converting it to an absolute path if it's relative. This is incomplete:
mpv 'Iron Maiden/1982 The Number of the Beast/8 Hallowed Be Thy Name.mp3'
This doesn't save any redirect entry.
mpv --directory-mode=recursive 'Iron Maiden', then quit-watch-later on
Hallowed Be Thy Name
This saves a redirect entry for "Iron Maiden", but not for "1982 The
Number of the Beast". It doesn't save redirect entries for the
directories above "Iron Maiden" either because "Iron Maiden" isn't
converted to an absolute path.
In both of these cases mpv --directory-mode=lazy 'Iron Maiden' won't
resume from "Hallowed Be Thy Name" because "1982 The Number of the
Beast" isn't the first subdirectory and there is no redirect entry for
it.
503dada42f made mpv recursively expand subdirectories precisely to fix
this, and f266eadf1e added back an option not to expand them. But if we
fix how redirect entries are stored, we can make the superior
--directory-mode=lazy (because it's faster and doesn't result in massive
playlists) the default, and also ensure that mpv will resume playback
even when you quit-watch-later a file without redirects and then play
the directories above it.
Fix this by always creating redirect entries for all segments of the absolute
path of the file, so that both
mpv 'Iron Maiden/1982 The Number of the Beast/8 Hallowed Be Thy Name.mp3'
and
mpv --directory-mode=lazy 'Iron Maiden'
will create redirect entries for
/$USER
/$USER/music
/$USER/music/Iron Maiden
/$USER/music/Iron Maiden/1982 The Number of the Beast
making mpv --directory-mode=lazy "Iron Maiden" resume from
"Hallowed Be Thy Name".
This commit also makes mpv delete the redirect entries of parent
directories when resuming playback, because if for example you have a
playlist with all the songs in a discography:
1980 Iron Maiden/1 Prowler.mp3
1980 Iron Maiden/2 Remember Tomorrow.mp3
...
1981 Killers/1 The Ides of March.mp3
1981 Killers/2 Wrathchild.mp3
...
Now mpv will eventually create redirect entries for every album. If you
later decide to play the directories instead and there are 20 albums,
you would have to do mpv * 20 times to clear all the redirect entries.
