- remove previously deprecated vf_eq
+ - remove that hardware deinterlace filters (vavpp, d3d11vpp, vdpaupp)
+ changed their deinterlacing-enabled setting depending on what the
+ --deinterlace option or property was set to. Now, a filter always does
+ what its filter options and defaults imply. The --deinterlace option and
+ property strictly add/remove its own filters. For example, if you run
+ "mpv --vf=vavpp --deinterlace=yes", this will insert another, redundant
+ filter, which is probably not what you want. For toggling a deinterlace
+ filter manually, use the "vf toggle" command, and do not set the
+ deinterlace option/property. To customize the filter that will be
+ inserted automatically, use the "@deinterlace" filter label with
+ --vf-defaults. Details how this works will probably change in the future.
+ - remove deinterlace=auto (this was not deprecated, but had only a very
+ obscure use that stopped working with the change above. It was also
+ prone to be confused with a feature not implemented by it: auto did _not_
+ mean that deinterlacing was enabled on demand.)
--- mpv 0.26.0 ---
- remove remaining deprecated audio device options, like --alsa-device
Some of them were removed in earlier releases.

This behaves exactly like the ``deinterlace`` input property (usually
