mpv_event_property (for property observation) actually never sets an error status. You cannot distinguish between unavailable properties and properties which returned an error. Not sure if it ever did.

/**
|
|
* Mechanisms provided by this API
|
|
* -------------------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* This API provides general control over mpv playback. It does not give you
|
|
* direct access to individual components of the player, only the whole thing.
|
|
* It's somewhat equivalent to MPlayer's slave mode. You can send commands,
|
|
* retrieve or set playback status or settings with properties, and receive
|
|
* events.
|
|
*
|
|
* The API can be used in two ways:
|
|
* 1) Internally in mpv, to provide additional features to the command line
|
|
* player. Lua scripting uses this. (Currently there is no plugin API to
|
|
* get a client API handle in external user code. It has to be a fixed
|
|
* part of the player at compilation time.)
|
|
* 2) Using mpv as a library with mpv_create(). This basically allows embedding
|
|
* mpv in other applications.
|
|
*
|
|
* Documentation
|
|
* -------------
|
|
*
|
|
* The libmpv C API is documented directly in this header. Note that most
|
|
* actual interaction with this player is done through
|
|
* options/commands/properties, which can be accessed through this API.
|
|
* Essentially everything is done with them, including loading a file,
|
|
* retrieving playback progress, and so on.
|
|
*
|
|
* These are documented elsewhere:
|
|
* * http://mpv.io/manual/master/#options
|
|
* * http://mpv.io/manual/master/#list-of-input-commands
|
|
* * http://mpv.io/manual/master/#properties
|
|
*
|
|
* You can also look at the examples here:
|
|
* * https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv-examples/tree/master/libmpv
|
|
*
|
|
* Event loop
|
|
* ----------
|
|
*
|
|
* In general, the API user should run an event loop in order to receive events.
|
|
* This event loop should call mpv_wait_event(), which will return once a new
|
|
* mpv client API is available. It is also possible to integrate client API
|
|
* usage in other event loops (e.g. GUI toolkits) with the
|
|
* mpv_set_wakeup_callback() function, and then polling for events by calling
|
|
* mpv_wait_event() with a 0 timeout.
|
|
*
|
|
* Note that the event loop is detached from the actual player. Not calling
|
|
* mpv_wait_event() will not stop playback. It will eventually congest the
|
|
* event queue of your API handle, though.
|
|
*
|
|
* Synchronous vs. asynchronous calls
|
|
* ----------------------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* The API allows both synchronous and asynchronous calls. Synchronous calls
|
|
* have to wait until the playback core is ready, which currently can take
|
|
* an unbounded time (e.g. if network is slow or unresponsive). Asynchronous
|
|
* calls just queue operations as requests, and return the result of the
|
|
* operation as events.
|
|
*
|
|
* Asynchronous calls
|
|
* ------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* The client API includes asynchronous functions. These allow you to send
|
|
* requests instantly, and get replies as events at a later point. The
|
|
* requests are made with functions carrying the _async suffix, and replies
|
|
* are returned by mpv_wait_event() (interleaved with the normal event stream).
|
|
*
|
|
* A 64 bit userdata value is used to allow the user to associate requests
|
|
* with replies. The value is passed as reply_userdata parameter to the request
|
|
* function. The reply to the request will have the reply
|
|
* mpv_event->reply_userdata field set to the same value as the
|
|
* reply_userdata parameter of the corresponding request.
|
|
*
|
|
* This userdata value is arbitrary and is never interpreted by the API. Note
|
|
* that the userdata value 0 is also allowed, but then the client must be
|
|
* careful not accidentally interpret the mpv_event->reply_userdata if an
|
|
* event is not a reply. (For non-replies, this field is set to 0.)
|
|
*
|
|
* Asynchronous calls may be reordered in arbitrarily with other synchronous
|
|
* and asynchronous calls. If you want a guaranteed order, you need to wait
|
|
* until asynchronous calls report completion before doing the next call.
|
|
*
|
|
* See also the section "Asynchronous command details" in the manpage.
|
|
*
|
|
* Multithreading
|
|
* --------------
|
|
*
|
|
* The client API is generally fully thread-safe, unless otherwise noted.
|
|
* Currently, there is no real advantage in using more than 1 thread to access
|
|
* the client API, since everything is serialized through a single lock in the
|
|
* playback core.
|
|
*
|
|
* Basic environment requirements
|
|
* ------------------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* This documents basic requirements on the C environment. This is especially
|
|
* important if mpv is used as library with mpv_create().
|
|
*
|
|
* - The LC_NUMERIC locale category must be set to "C". If your program calls
|
|
* setlocale(), be sure not to use LC_ALL, or if you do, reset LC_NUMERIC
|
|
* to its sane default: setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C").
|
|
* - If a X11 based VO is used, mpv will set the xlib error handler. This error
|
|
* handler is process-wide, and there's no proper way to share it with other
|
|
* xlib users within the same process. This might confuse GUI toolkits.
|
|
* - mpv uses some other libraries that are not library-safe, such as Fribidi
|
|
* (used through libass), ALSA, FFmpeg, and possibly more.
|
|
* - The FPU precision must be set at least to double precision.
|
|
* - On Windows, mpv will call timeBeginPeriod(1).
|
|
* - On memory exhaustion, mpv will kill the process.
|
|
* - In certain cases, mpv may start sub processes (such as with the ytdl
|
|
* wrapper script).
|
|
* - Using UNIX IPC (off by default) will override the SIGPIPE signal handler,
|
|
* and set it to SIG_IGN.
|
|
*
|
|
* Encoding of filenames
|
|
* ---------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* mpv uses UTF-8 everywhere.
|
|
*
|
|
* On some platforms (like Linux), filenames actually do not have to be UTF-8;
|
|
* for this reason libmpv supports non-UTF-8 strings. libmpv uses what the
|
|
* kernel uses and does not recode filenames. At least on Linux, passing a
|
|
* string to libmpv is like passing a string to the fopen() function.
|
|
*
|
|
* On Windows, filenames are always UTF-8, libmpv converts between UTF-8 and
|
|
* UTF-16 when using win32 API functions. libmpv never uses or accepts
|
|
* filenames in the local 8 bit encoding. It does not use fopen() either;
|
|
* it uses _wfopen().
|
|
*
|
|
* On OS X, filenames and other strings taken/returned by libmpv can have
|
|
* inconsistent unicode normalization. This can sometimes lead to problems.
|
|
* You have to hope for the best.
|
|
*
|
|
* Also see the remarks for MPV_FORMAT_STRING.
|
|
*
|
|
* Embedding the video window
|
|
* --------------------------
|
|
*
|
|
* Using the render API (in render_cb.h) is recommended. This API requires
|
|
* you to create and maintain an OpenGL context, to which you can render
|
|
* video using a specific API call. This API does not include keyboard or mouse
|
|
* input directly.
|
|
*
|
|
* There is an older way to embed the native mpv window into your own. You have
|
|
* to get the raw window handle, and set it as "wid" option. This works on X11,
|
|
* win32, and OSX only. It's much easier to use than the render API, but
|
|
* also has various problems.
|
|
*
|
|
* Also see client API examples and the mpv manpage. There is an extensive
|
|
* discussion here:
|
|
* https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv-examples/tree/master/libmpv#methods-of-embedding-the-video-window
|
|
*
|
|
* Compatibility
|
|
* -------------
|
|
*
|
|
* mpv development doesn't stand still, and changes to mpv internals as well as
|
|
* to its interface can cause compatibility issues to client API users.
|
|
*
|
|
* The API is versioned (see MPV_CLIENT_API_VERSION), and changes to it are
|
|
* documented in DOCS/client-api-changes.rst. The C API itself will probably
|
|
* remain compatible for a long time, but the functionality exposed by it
|
|
* could change more rapidly. For example, it's possible that options are
|
|
* renamed, or change the set of allowed values.
|
|
*
|
|
* Defensive programming should be used to potentially deal with the fact that
|
|
* options, commands, and properties could disappear, change their value range,
|
|
* or change the underlying datatypes. It might be a good idea to prefer
|
|
* MPV_FORMAT_STRING over other types to decouple your code from potential
|
|
* mpv changes.
|
|
*
|
|
* Also see: DOCS/compatibility.rst
|
|
*
|
|
* Future changes
|
|
* --------------
|
|
*
|
|
* This are the planned changes that will most likely be done on the next major
|
|
* bump of the library:
|
|
*
|
|
* - remove all symbols and include files that are marked as deprecated
|
|
* - reassign enum numerical values to remove gaps
|
|
* - remove the mpv_opengl_init_params.extra_exts field
|
|
* - change the type of mpv_event_end_file.reason
|
|
* - disabling all events by default

|
* and needs to be initialized to be actually used with most other API
|
|
* functions.
|
|
*
|
|
* Some API functions will return MPV_ERROR_UNINITIALIZED in the uninitialized
|
|
* state. You can call mpv_set_property() (or mpv_set_property_string() and
|
|
* other variants, and before mpv 0.21.0 mpv_set_option() etc.) to set initial
|
|
* options. After this, call mpv_initialize() to start the player, and then use
|
|
* e.g. mpv_command() to start playback of a file.
|
|
*
|
|
* The point of separating handle creation and actual initialization is that
|
|
* you can configure things which can't be changed during runtime.
|
|
*
|
|
* Unlike the command line player, this will have initial settings suitable
|
|
* for embedding in applications. The following settings are different:
|
|
* - stdin/stdout/stderr and the terminal will never be accessed. This is
|
|
* equivalent to setting the --no-terminal option.
|
|
* (Technically, this also suppresses C signal handling.)
|
|
* - No config files will be loaded. This is roughly equivalent to using
|
|
* --config=no. Since libmpv 1.15, you can actually re-enable this option,
|
|
* which will make libmpv load config files during mpv_initialize(). If you
|
|
* do this, you are strongly encouraged to set the "config-dir" option too.
|
|
* (Otherwise it will load the mpv command line player's config.)
|
|
* For example:
|
|
* mpv_set_option_string(mpv, "config-dir", "/my/path"); // set config root
|
|
* mpv_set_option_string(mpv, "config", "yes"); // enable config loading
|
|
* (call mpv_initialize() _after_ this)
|
|
* - Idle mode is enabled, which means the playback core will enter idle mode
|
|
* if there are no more files to play on the internal playlist, instead of
|
|
* exiting. This is equivalent to the --idle option.
|
|
* - Disable parts of input handling.
|
|
* - Most of the different settings can be viewed with the command line player
|
|
* by running "mpv --show-profile=libmpv".
|
|
*
|
|
* All this assumes that API users want a mpv instance that is strictly
|
|
* isolated from the command line player's configuration, user settings, and
|
|
* so on. You can re-enable disabled features by setting the appropriate
|
|
* options.
|
|
*
|
|
* The mpv command line parser is not available through this API, but you can
|
|

/**
|
|
* Return a UNIX file descriptor referring to the read end of a pipe. This
|
|
* pipe can be used to wake up a poll() based processing loop. The purpose of
|
|
* this function is very similar to mpv_set_wakeup_callback(), and provides
|
|
* a primitive mechanism to handle coordinating a foreign event loop and the
|
|
* libmpv event loop. The pipe is non-blocking. It's closed when the mpv_handle
|
|
* is destroyed. This function always returns the same value (on success).
|
|
*
|
|
* This is in fact implemented using the same underlying code as for
|
|
* mpv_set_wakeup_callback() (though they don't conflict), and it is as if each
|
|
* callback invocation writes a single 0 byte to the pipe. When the pipe
|
|
* becomes readable, the code calling poll() (or select()) on the pipe should
|
|
* read all contents of the pipe and then call mpv_wait_event(c, 0) until
|
|
* no new events are returned. The pipe contents do not matter and can just
|
|
* be discarded. There is not necessarily one byte per readable event in the
|
|
* pipe. For example, the pipes are non-blocking, and mpv won't block if the
|
|
* pipe is full. Pipes are normally limited to 4096 bytes, so if there are
|
|
* more than 4096 events, the number of readable bytes can not equal the number
|
|
* of events queued. Also, it's possible that mpv does not write to the pipe
|
|
* once it's guaranteed that the client was already signaled. See the example
|
|
* below how to do it correctly.
|
|
*
|
|
* Example:
|
|
*
|
|
* int pipefd = mpv_get_wakeup_pipe(mpv);
|
|
* if (pipefd < 0)
|
|
* error();
|
|
* while (1) {
|
|
* struct pollfd pfds[1] = {
|
|
* { .fd = pipefd, .events = POLLIN },
|
|
* };
|
|
* // Wait until there are possibly new mpv events.
|
|
* poll(pfds, 1, -1);
|
|
* if (pfds[0].revents & POLLIN) {
|
|
* // Empty the pipe. Doing this before calling mpv_wait_event()
|
|
* // ensures that no wakeups are missed. It's not so important to
|
|
* // make sure the pipe is really empty (it will just cause some
|
|
* // additional wakeups in unlikely corner cases).
|
|
* char unused[256];
|
|
* read(pipefd, unused, sizeof(unused));
|
|
* while (1) {
|
|
* mpv_event *ev = mpv_wait_event(mpv, 0);
|
|
* // If MPV_EVENT_NONE is received, the event queue is empty.
|
|
* if (ev->event_id == MPV_EVENT_NONE)
|
|
* break;
|
|
* // Process the event.
|
|
* ...
|
|
* }
|
|
* }
|
|
* }
|
|
*
|
|
* @deprecated this function will be removed in the future. If you need this
|
|
* functionality, use mpv_set_wakeup_callback(), create a pipe
|
|
* manually, and call write() on your pipe in the callback.
|
|
*
|
|
* @return A UNIX FD of the read end of the wakeup pipe, or -1 on error.
|
|
* On MS Windows/MinGW, this will always return -1.
