+/**
+ * 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. Some invocations of the "subprocess" command will
+ *   also do that.
+ * - mpv may start sub processes, so overriding SIGCHLD, or waiting on all PIDs
+ *   (such as calling wait()) by the parent process or any other library within
+ *   the process must be avoided. libmpv itself only waits for its own PIDs.
+ * - If anything in the process registers signal handlers, they must set the
+ *   SA_RESTART flag. Otherwise you WILL get random failures on signals.
+ *
+ * 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 macOS, 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.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 macOS 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 that are marked as deprecated
+ *  - reassign enum numerical values to remove gaps
+ *  - disabling all events by default
+ */
+

+ * minor version number, and the 16 higher bits the major version number. If
+ * the API becomes incompatible to previous versions, the major version

+ * options.

+   * the mpv instance. This instance is in a pre-initialized state,
+   * 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
+   * set individual options with mpv_set_property(). Files for playback must be
+   * loaded with mpv_command() or others.
