Introduction

This repository contain scripts I have made for mpv media player. To add scripts from this repository, download the desired script in your mpv/scripts/ directory, for user customizable settings download the related conf file in your mpv/script-opts/ directory.

Scripts available in this repository: SmartSkip, SmartCopyPaste, SmartCopyPaste_II, SimpleHistory, SimpleBookmark, SimpleUndo, UndoRedo

SmartSkip

You think Netflix is good at binge-watching? Yes, it is.. :) But give SmartSkip a try! Automatically or manually skip opening, intro, outro, and preview, like never before. Jump to next file, previous file, and save your chapter changes!

Default Keybinds

Below default keybinds can be changed using the script conf file, or through script-opts by referring to the names that do not contain spaces.

Keybind	Name	Description
>	smart-next	Skips using silence-skip > chapter-next > playlist-next, based on configurable variables
<	smart-prev	Jumps to beginning > previous chapter > previous playlist, based on configurable variables
?	silence-skip	Skips until a silence is detected based on configurable variables
ctrl+right	chapter-next	Jumps to next chapter > to next playlist
ctrl+left	chapter-prev	Jumps to previous chapter > to beginning > to previous playlist
smart-next, enter, y	Proceed Auto-Skip	Proceeds Auto-Skip when countdown is started
smart-prev, pause, esc, n	Cancel Auto-Skip	Cancels Auto-Skip when countdown is started
ctrl+.	toggle-autoskip	Enables or disables Auto-Skip during playback for the current mpv session
alt+.	toggle-category-autoskip	Enables or disables a chapter for Auto-Skip during playback for the current mpv session

Main Features

• Smart Next / Prev: Automatically triggers Skip to Silence, Chapter Next/ Prev, or Playlist Next/ Prev based on configurable parameters.

• Skip to Silence: If the file you are watching is not chaptered, skipping to silence will attempt to skip the intro and outro by finding the silence in the file (optionally: chapter automatically created).
• Auto Skip: If the file you are watching has organized chapters, any opening, ending sound can be automatically skipped after your preferred countdown time.
• Chapters Modification: Create, remove, edit chapters, and then save changes into an external file or bake them into the mkv file.
• Chapter Next / Prev: Go to next chapter, if no chapters available go to next playlist, and vise-versa (like the good times with MPC-HC).
• Autoload: Basically, if you are not using mpv's autoload script, this is bundled along for convenience and for the possibility to add more features in the future.
• Customization: Tons of user customizable settings that can even change the behavior and priority of smart-next, smart-prev, auto-skip, and more!
• OSD (On Screen Display): Displays a proper OSD for the actions preformed through SmartSkip.
• More: This is not all! Explore the conf file to learn more about the possibilities you are missing out...

mpv-scripts's Issues

Toggling pause when idle causes error

When mpv is idle, if pause got touched just by pressing SPACE unconsciously, it will report errors like this

[SimpleUndo]
[SimpleUndo] stack traceback:
[SimpleUndo]    mp.defaults:397: in function 'handler'
[SimpleUndo]    mp.defaults:500: in function 'call_event_handlers'

I tried editing script, seems working for now

mp.observe_property('pause', 'bool', function(name, value)
	if timer ~= nil then

	if value then
		timer:stop()
		pause = true
	else
		-- if timer ~= nil then
			timer:resume()
		-- end
		pause = false
	end
end
end)

Please check and fix it up, thanks!

SimpleHistory - old log file - conflict

The script doesn't read the log file anymore, and I think this issue comes from text month to numeric month.

log_path=C:\Users\Max\AppData\Roaming\mpv\_ZZZ
log_file=mpvHistory.log

Add project tag mpv-script

I suggest adding the tag mpv-script because tags are an excellent way to find software.

UndoRedo-1.5.1 lua table.insert error

Dear developer,

Thank you very much for the UndoRedo script! Very nice functionality! Bravo!

I tried using UndoRedo-1.5.1.lua, but the code table.insert(seekTable,0,0) was giving me the following error:

[UndoRedo_1_5_1] Lua error: /home/ubuntu/.config/mpv/scripts/UndoRedo-1.5.1.lua:22: bad argument #2 to 'insert' (position out of bounds)

I think that this error may have to do with the lua version (5.1 versus 5.2 & 5.3?).

On my setup I was able to fix this by replacing the two occurrences of the table.insert code with:
seekTable[0] = 0

I am writing this comment to propose one of the following options:

1. Either in the script switch on the lua version with an if-else statement
2. or use a 'try-except' construct with pcall
3. or (simplest option) make a comment about this in the README.md file and/or a code comment in the script itself (to safe troubleshooting time for future users)

Kind regards,
Grateful user

[BUG] Delete while filtered causes a very weird behavior

Whenever I try to delete elements from the history by searching or filtering, the second I delete the last element on display the hotkey for opening history stops working. I have to reopen MPV to get it working. But the thing is when I do that all of the elements, even the ones I didn't want to clear get removed from history.

Paste multiple urls at once

Hey! Thanks for the awesome scripts.

I tried the paste multiple urls at once but looks like doesn't work. I am using SmartCopyPaste Can you add this feature if it already does not exists?

When I paste the urls into mpv, it shows all the urls on osd as the following message:

Pasted Into Playlist:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID1
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID3

But in reality it only adding the first URL into the playlist.

Sorry about my language :P

[Feature Request] Wayland support via wl-clipboard

As xclip is X11 only, I wondered if you could substitute it with wl-clipboard to enable those scripts under Wayland.

Smartcopypaste Not Accepting Paste

Hi, smart copy paste was working simply great before I guess. But now it doesn't paste URLs I copied from browser. It just remembers URLs I copied from MPV and pastes them.

Is there a version that just pastes any URL from clipboard?

SmartHistory-1.5.2 not resuming

First of all, thank you for sharing your handy scripts! Unfortunately I ran into a problem:

Running mpv 0.32.0 on Arch Linux, I cannot resume videos using ctrl+r. Opening the last video with ctrl+l works just fine.
There are no errors or warnings in the shell output or osd and I disabled other scripts and configs for testing.

steps to reproduce

mpv example.mp4  #skip to the middle and exit
grep example.mp4 ~/.config/mpv/mpvHistory.log #the file has been logged correctly
mpv example.mp4 #pressing ctrl+r, nothing happens

Option to change log file location

Portable mpv installation uses portable_config folder in the root of mpv installation for storing personal data.When using multiple mpv, scripts are required to adapt the portability configuration, such as using mpv and mpv.net at the same time.Thanks in advance.

SimpleUndo-2.5.lua:68: attempt to index global 'timer' (a nil value)

Hello,

just tried SimpleUndo 2.5 and it worked once. Can't get it working again now. mpv 0.29.1 says:

[SimpleUndo_2_5]

Thanks!

Smartcopypaste with nircmd

Can you make modification of SmartCopyPaste-1.5 script to work with nircmd? I have Windows which doesn't have powershell, so it can't work with clipboard.

Save log to user profile directory

The config file of SimpleHistory.lua currently didn't offer a variable of user profile directory to save log, making it inconvenient to use absolute path instead.

It would be very helpful if such variable exists, please consider adding it in the future. Thanks!

SmartCopyPaste Suggestion: Change format to "t=" for website links

Both Youtube and Twitch use the "t=" parameter for timestamps
"?t=" at the start of a query or "&t=" otherwise
e.g.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFPJf-wKTd0&t=500s
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1157674028?t=24156s

This would be more useful for copying these links to post to other places or people that don't use this script.

SimpleHistory: Automatically Resume Last Loaded Playback without any Keybind

I was wondering if it would be possible to include an option to automatically resume your last playback (if it was saved) without having to press any keybinds.

Lua script file name should not include version number

description

When using require("SCRIPT_NAME-VERSION") to load Lua script, it'll first replace version
number with "directory separator" in the modname, for example:

-- FILE: MPV_CONFIG_DIR/scripts/loader.lua
local smart_history = require "SmartHistory-1.7.1"
-- the same as
local smart_history = require "SmartHistory-1/7/1"

require (modname) document: https://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.3

The second searcher looks for a loader as a Lua library, using the
path stored at package.path.

A path is a sequence of templates separated by semicolons.

For each template, the searcher will change each interrogation mark in
the template by filename, which is the module name with each dot
replaced by a "directory separator" (such as "/" in Unix); then it
will try to open the resulting file name.

So, for instance, if the Lua path is the string

 "./?.lua;./?.lc;/usr/local/?/init.lua"

the search for a Lua file for module foo will try to open the files

1. ./foo.lua
2. ./foo.lc
3. /usr/local/foo/init.lua

in that order.

What's expected?

Strip version number from the script file name, for example,
SmartHistory-1.7.1.lua should be renamed into SmartHistory.lua

Add it mplug script directory

Mplug is like a package manager but for mpv scripts.
Please add your script there (if already not there) and also installation instructions in manifest - https://github.com/Nudin/mpv-script-directory/blob/master/HOWTO_ADD_INSTALL_INSTRUCTIONS.md

Script request: Creating playlist from within MPV and use the log manager to change and interact with them directly

SimpleBookmark - Force SimpleBookmark to be left-aligned

I have set the OSD alignment to the right, but I need SimpleBookmark to be left-aligned.
Is it possible to do it?

Where have I tried to fix it? (Unfortunately, I didn't make it happen by myself.)

• SimpleBookmark.lua
• SimpleBookmark.conf

SimpleBookmark: Total duration for videos that are bookmarked - Feature Request

I had the same idea as from this issue #34, but with a different application for SimpleBookmark script. Instead of logging time, it calculates everything that gets bookmarked and shows you the total time at the top it will take to complete the bookmarked elements. I thought it would be really neat and a nice way to see how much time it will take for you to go through the priority list with a total calculation, so you can plan your watch list more comfortably.

SimpleHistory: Keybind for clearing history

It would be really useful if there were was keybind to clear all the items from history

Difficulties in configuring the script

Without a configuration file, it is very difficult to customize the behavior of the script (for example, change the path to save the history file) if you have no knowledge of programming. Please make a config file.

The history list does not print escape sequences

When a directory starts with "h" on windows, the path is should contain "\h", for example "temp\home". Instead, the "\h" is transformed into whitespace and "temp ome" is printed:

Note: I have show_paths=yes in my config file.

Default documentation of undo button is missing a step for MPV.net users

MPV.net's default config includes a setting which clears input settings. This causes the undo button scripts to not work.

Fix:

Instruct MPV.net users to change input-default-bindings = no to input-default-bindings = yes

Use clipboard on linux

xclip -o gives the primary selection, which is the last highlighted/selected text. I think the clipboard should be used by default (i.e. xclip -selection clipboard -o and xclip -selection clipboard -in) maybe with an option to use the primary selection instead. Currently the script does not work if text copied to the clipboard was not not done with highlighting/selection (and most copying I do does not affect the primary selection). Also if you highlight some text, C-c it, and then highlight some other text without copying it, the script will currently use the last highlighted text instead of what you actually copied last.

SmartCopyPaste: Absolute path copy

Feature request

I found the relative path copy quite useless in real scenarios and replaced the function with an absolute path one. I think this could be a valuable addition/modification

Something along these lines:

local function copy_path()
    local filePath = mp.get_property_native('path')
	if (filePath ~= nil) then

        local handle = io.popen("readlink -f "..filePath)
        local result = handle:read("*a")
        handle:close()

        local text = result:sub(1,-2)

		set_clipboard(text)
		mp.osd_message("Copied Video Only:\n"..text)
	else
		return false
	end
end

SmartCopyPaste 3.0: Option to Paste into Playlist by default?

Before I upgraded to SCP 3.0, anything I pasted into MPV would be pasted into the playlist by default, which I like. In SCP 3.0 however, the default behavior is to override the current video. I can customize behavior when a video is playing, and when using ctrl+alt+v, but if I have a video paused and use just ctrl+v, it will override my current playlist.

SimpleHistory: Auto Delete logs if File(s) Does not Exist

Would it be possible to auto-delete logs if the file is not in your system? It may be best if it was based on the file path, as if it is based on media-name or file-name it could cause problems.

For example...
Say there was a file in C:\Users\Me\Videos, and I delete/move the file, then when I start MPV up again that log will be deleted.

However, if that same file was in another directory C:\Users\Me\Downloads, it would run normally with no auto-deletion.

Add function of `shared_ script_ properties` to fix OSC logo conflict.

Please refer to mpv-player/mpv#10201 , CogentRedTester/mpv-file-browser#55.

It seems like a good idea that store the menu open status in the shared_script_properties property and using conditional auto-profiles.

This method can be adapted to other OSC scripts.

Add a functionality for when last accessed date and time is for a played file logged in history

The title is self-explanatory. I want to know when I accessed a file last time. Thought it would be another cool addition to an already great script set

SmartCopyPaste Option to disable copying time

I don't prioritize copying the time-stamp that much. Typically I only want to copy the link. I'd prefer to use the CTRL+C command to just copy the video link instead of CTRL+ALT+C.

There doesn't seem to be an option in the lua script to change these configurations. I could edit the imput.config file, but I'm uncertain how to appropriately do that without breaking something.

When file has a ` then clipboard is empty

Hi,

I want to mention when a file has a ` then clipboard is empty how to clipboard a file path/file name.

Thank you.

FYI: the played video time could get from `on_unload` hook

SmartHistory.lua code can be refactor by NOT using boilerplate code like mp.add_periodic_timer and pause and end-file event.

Instead, by using on_unload hook.

document:

on_unload

    Run before closing a file, and before actually
    uninitializing everything.

    It's not possible to resume playback in this state.

    Ordered BEFORE end-file.

    Will also happen in the error case (then after on_load_fail).

sample code:

mp.add_hook('on_unload', 50, function()
   local path = mp.get_property('path')
   local time = mp.get_property('time-pos')

   local historyLog = io.open("mpvHistory.log", 'a+')
   historyLog:write(('%s%s\n'):format(path, '#time=' .. tostring(math.floor(time))))
   historyLog:close()
end)

see mpv-player/mpv#9148 for more details

Paste multiple links into MPV as different playlist entries?

Using the Foxytab extension, I can mass copy the links for youtube videos I have open in different tabs, and hypothetically paste them into MPV. Unfortunately, the player only loads the first link.

While it is understandable that this might be an unavoidable consequence of working with MPV and otherwise unresolvable, I'd still appreciate a way to paste multiple links at once into MPV and have the player recognize them all as different links instead of a single link.

SmartHistory - Feature Request - Supporting Playlists

Is it possible to support .m3u playlists using SmartHistory? If this could go to the last played file for the playlist, then I think it could work.

SimpleHistory: Add a keybind in the distinct protocol (or all, if possible) to completely delete an entry - Request

Request to completely delete an entry.

For Example:
In distinct protocol, it shows
Teen Titans Episode 60

Once you press the keybind to delete it will find the last episode you've watched

For example, it may show...
Teen Titans Episode 59

Is there a way to completely delete an entry in the distinct protocol?

Bad release

In the 2.2 release you uploaded github html pages instead of the actual scripts.

SmartHistory_1_5 sometimes throws an error

It seems that sometimes (on youtube playlists for example) SmartHistory 1.5 throws an error.

Here is an example:

[SmartHistory_1_5] 
[SmartHistory_1_5] stack traceback:
[SmartHistory_1_5] 	...uy-bartstan/.config/mpv/scripts/SmartHistory-1.5.lua:48: in function 'handler'

Total duration for video played in history + filtering - Feature Request

I thought this would be a cool idea, so I thought I'll let you know in hope of maybe seeing it implemented. What if the history section with all the episodes could show the total time spent on all things in total. That would mean all videos with the accurate time as shown by when you stopped noted by the clock icon and time. Another thing would be if you say wanted to know time spent on a certain playlist, say Breaking Bad season 1 you can just search that up, and the duration counted will adjust to those elements and ignore everything else that doesn't fit. Time will only be counted if the video is playing from a continuation or if you decide to go back and play but not when you're paused. Hopefully, It makes any sense. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you so much for all these awesome scripts :)

SimpleUndo: Deprecation warning for 'pause' and 'unpause' events

mpv from (at least) version 0.33 onwards reports

[SimpleUndo_2_5_1] The 'pause' event is deprecated and will be removed.
[SimpleUndo_2_5_1] The 'unpause' event is deprecated and will be removed.

Currently SimpleUndo still works without issues, but given the deprecation warning this might not be the case forever anymore.

Can't paste YouTube links after updating to mpv 0.34.0-14-g662c793a55

Previously, I was able to copy YouTube links with SmartCopyPaste-II and just paste them into mpv. Ever since I upgraded to mpv 0.34.0-14-g662c793a55, I just get the message

Failed to Paste
Pasted Unsupported Item:

and nothing else happens. I would like to provide more information but I don't really know what kind of information would be helpful and where to get it. I am on the Arch-based distro EndeavourOS, if that's important.

SmartCopyPaste Compatibility with MacOS X

Good script. Would be really cool to get SmartCopyPaste to also work on MacOS X.
Access to the clipboard on MacOS X from the command line can be done with pbcopy and pbpaste.
This should allow you to adapt your script for MacOS X too.

Support user-added link types

I'm using another script that adds support for magnet links, for example. It would be nice if there was setting where you could provide a string to match against (e.g. magnet:). If the clipboard contents match, it would just take the default behavior instead of failing (mp.commandv('loadfile', videoFile, 'append-play') for paste-playlist).

Keybind overlap

Just wanted to let you know that the keybind 'r' and 'R' overlap with default mpv keyboards (for moving subtitles up and down). I changed these to 'y' and 'Y', but would recommend changing them so as not to have them overlapping.

SimpleHistory: Along with the recent keybind, include all the files if it is in a playlist - Feature Request

I was just wondering if there is a way to include all the files in the playlist and the recent file. So, in initial use when you quit a video from a playlist and open MPV again, once you press the keybind to resume the file, it will only show the file you were last on and none of the remaining files of the playlist, which made me think if it is possible to include all the files in the playlist along with the recent file.

Support bookmark slots for SimpleBookmark

Need to find a way to assign the bookmarks to a keybind for fast loading a bookmark point.

Unable to paste youtube links (tried both ytdl and ytdlp)

I have the same issue as #26

Since I am on wayland, I set the copy & paste commands to

yet, I keep getting the Pasted unsupported item error. mpv-1:0.34.1-2

Why auto-resume to last position not work?

function on_filename_change(name, value)
   if value then
      resume()
   end
end

mp.observe_property("filename", "native", on_filename_change)

Copied the above script before the following lines:

mpv-scripts/scripts/SmartHistory-1.6.lua

Lines 182 to 190 in d0a0559

	---------------------------KEYBINDS CUSTOMIZATION SETTINGS---------------------------------
	mp.add_key_binding("ctrl+r", "resume", resume)
	mp.add_key_binding("ctrl+R", "resumeCaps", resume)
	mp.add_key_binding("ctrl+l", "lastPlay", lastPlay)
	mp.add_key_binding("ctrl+L", "lastPlayCaps", lastPlay)
	---------------------END OF KEYBINDS CUSTOMIZATION SETTINGS---------------------------------

when runs, it shows 'Resumed Last Position' but always current position is 0

SimpleHistory.lua not backwards compatible with old mpvHistory.log

When replacing the old smarthistory.lua with the new SimpleHistory.lua, the new version won't work if the old mpvHistory.log is still located in /.config/mpv/. It doesn't even throw an error message.

Moreover, because my old version mentions "Version: 1.7.1" and the new version mentions "Version: 1.1", I incorrectly assumed that the new one was a deprecated old version.
