Seeking past the ``b`` point doesn't loop (this is intentional). - If both options are set to ``no`` or unset, looping is disabled. - Otherwise, the start/end of playback is used if one of the options - is set to ``no`` or unset. + If ``a`` is after ``b``, the behavior is as if the points were given in + the right order, and the player will seek to ``b`` after crossing through + ``a``. This is different from old behavior, where looping was disabled (and + as a bug, looped back to ``a`` on the end of the file). + + If either options are set to ``no`` (or unset), looping is disabled. This + is different from old behavior, where an unset ``a`` implied the start of + the file, and an unset ``b`` the end of the file. The loop-points can be adjusted at runtime with the corresponding properties. See also ``ab-loop`` command. |
