+STATS
+=====
+
+This builtin script displays information and statistics for the currently
+played file. It is enabled by default if mpv was compiled with Lua support.
+It can be disabled entirely using the ``--load-stats-overlay=no`` option.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+The following key bindings are active by default unless something else is
+already bound to them:
+
+==== ==============================================
+i Show stats for a fixed duration
+I Toggle stats (shown until toggled again)
+==== ==============================================
+
+While the stats are visible on screen the following key bindings are active,
+regardless of existing bindings. They allow you to switch between *pages* of
+stats:
+
+==== ==================
+1 Show usual stats
+2 Show frame timings
+==== ==================
+
+Font
+~~~~
+
+For optimal visual experience, a font with support for many font weights and
+monospaced digits is recommended. By default, the open source font
+`Source Sans Pro <https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-sans-pro>`_ is used.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+This script can be customized through a config file ``lua-settings/stats.conf``
+placed in mpv's user directory and through the ``--script-opts`` command-line
+option. The configuration syntax is described in `ON SCREEN CONTROLLER`_.
+
+Configurable Options
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+``key_oneshot``
+ Default: i
+``key_toggle``
+ Default: I
+
+ Key bindings to display stats.
+
+``key_page_1``
+ Default: 1
+``key_page_2``
+ Default: 2
+
+ Key bindings for page switching while stats are displayed.
+
+``duration``
+ Default: 4
+
+ How long the stats are shown in seconds (oneshot).
+
+``redraw_delay``
+ Default: 1
+
+ How long it takes to refresh the displayed stats in seconds (toggling).
+
+``persistent_overlay``
+ Default: false
+
+ When false, other scripts printing text to the screen can overwrite the
+ displayed stats. When true, displayed stats are persistently shown for the
+ respective duration. This can result in overlapping text when multiple
+ scripts decide to print text at the same time.
+
+``plot_perfdata``
+ Default: true
+
+ Show graphs for performance data (page 2).
+
+``plot_vsync_ratio``
+ Default: true
+``plot_vsync_jitter``
+ Default: true
+
+ Show graphs for vsync and jitter values (page 1). Only when toggled.
+
+``flush_graph_data``
+ Default: true
+
+ Clear data buffers used for drawing graphs when toggling.
+
+``font``
+ Default: Source Sans Pro
+
+ Font name. Should support as many font weights as possible for optimal
+ visual experience.
+
+``font_mono``
+ Default: Source Sans Pro
+
+ Font name for parts where monospaced characters are necessary to align
+ text. Currently, monospaced digits are sufficient.
+
+``font_size``
+ Default: 8
+
+ Font size used to render text.
+
+``font_color``
+ Default: FFFFFF
+
+ Font color.
+
+``border_size``
+ Default: 0.8
+
+ Size of border drawn around the font.
+
+``border_color``
+ Default: 262626
+
+ Color of drawn border.
+
+``alpha``
+ Default: 11
+
+ Transparency for drawn text.
+
+``plot_bg_border_color``
+ Default: 0000FF
+
+ Border color used for drawing graphs.
+
+``plot_bg_color``
+ Default: 262626
+
+ Background color used for drawing graphs.
+
+``plot_color``
+ Default: FFFFFF
+
+ Color used for drawing graphs.
+
+Note: colors are given as hexadecimal values and use ASS tag order: BBGGRR
+(blue green red).
+
+Different key bindings
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A different key binding can be defined with the aforementioned options
+``key_oneshot`` and ``key_toggle`` but also with commands in ``input.conf``,
+for example::
+
+ e script-binding stats/display-stats
+ E script-binding stats/display-stats-toggle
+
+Using ``input.conf``, it is also possible to directly display a certain page::
+
+ i script-binding stats/display-page-1
+ e script-binding stats/display-page-2
