This is more or less a minimal hack to make _some_ text measurement functionality available to scripts. Since libass does not support such a thing, this simply uses the bounding box of the rendered text. This is far from ideal. Problems include: - using a bitmap bounding box - additional memory waste and/or flushing caches - dependency on window size - odd small deviations with different window sizes (run osd-test.lua and resize the window after each timer update; the bounding boxes aren't adjusted in an overly useful way) - inability to query the size _after_ actual rendering But I guess it's a start. Since I'm aware that it's crap, add a threat to the manpage that this may be changed/removed again. For now, I'm interested whether anyone will have use for it in its current form, as it's an often requested feature.
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.)
