This affects async commands started by client API, commands with async capability run in a sync way by client API (think mpv_command_node() with "subprocess"), and detached async work. Since scripts might want to do some cleanup work (that might involve launching processes, don't ask), we don't unconditionally kill everything on exit, but apply an arbitrary timeout of 2 seconds until async commands are aborted.
mpv lua scripts
The lua scripts in this folder can be loaded on a one-time basis by adding the option
--script=/path/to/script.lua
to mpv's command line.
Where appropriate, they may also be placed in ~/.config/mpv/scripts/ from where they will be automatically loaded when mpv starts.
This is only a small selection of internally maintained scripts. Some of them are just for testing mpv internals, or serve as examples. An extensive user-edited list of 3rd party scripts is available here:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/User-Scripts
(Anyone can add their own scripts to that list.)
