With the recent changes to the script it does not incur a startup delay by default due to starting youtube-dl and waiting for it. This was the main reason for making libmpv have a different default. Starting sub processes from a library can still be a bit fishy, but I think it's ok. Still mention it in the libmpv header. There were already other cases where libmpv would start its own processes, such as the X11 backend calling xdg-screensaver. (The reason why this is fishy is because UNIX process management sucks: SIGCHLD and the wait() syscall make sub processes non-transparent and could potentially introduce conflicts with code trying to use them.) |
