From 942829463410d0e7ab27b3191205ecfd3c132f2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Sat, 19 May 2018 12:37:37 +0200 Subject: player: simplify edition switching The player fully restarts playback when the edition or disk title is changed. Before this, the player tried to reinitialized playback partially. For example, it did not print a new "Playing: " message, and did not send playback end to libmpv users (scripts or applications). This playback restart code was a bit messy and could have unforeseen interactions with various state. There have been bugs before. Since it's a mostly cosmetic thing for an obscure feature, just change it to a full restart. This works well, though since it may have consequences for scripts or client API users, mention it in interface-changes.rst. --- DOCS/interface-changes.rst | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'DOCS') diff --git a/DOCS/interface-changes.rst b/DOCS/interface-changes.rst index fa42b1dc81..7ef91c431e 100644 --- a/DOCS/interface-changes.rst +++ b/DOCS/interface-changes.rst @@ -103,6 +103,8 @@ Interface changes of 3D content doesn't justify such an option anyway. - change cycle-values command to use the current value, instead of an internal counter that remembered the current position. + - edition and disc title switching will now fully reload playback (may have + consequences for scripts, client API, or when using file-local options) --- mpv 0.28.0 --- - rename --hwdec=mediacodec option to mediacodec-copy, to reflect conventions followed by other hardware video decoding APIs -- cgit v1.2.3
