+List of events
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is a partial list of events. This section describes what
+``mpv_event_to_node()`` returns, and which is what scripting APIs and the JSON
+IPC sees. Note that the C API has separate C-level declarations with
+``mpv_event``, which may be slightly different.
+
+All events can have the following fields:
+
+``event``
+ Name as the event (as returned by ``mpv_event_name()``).
+
+``error``
+ Set to an error string (as returned by ``mpv_error_string()``). This field
+ is missing if no error happened, or the event type does not report error.
+ Most events leave this unset.
+
+This list uses the event name field value, and the C API symbol in brackets:
+
+``start-file`` (``MPV_EVENT_START_FILE``)
+ Happens right before a new file is loaded. When you receive this, the
+ player is loading the file (or possibly already done with it).
+
+ This has the following fields:
+
+ ``playlist_entry_id``
+ Playlist entry ID of the file being loaded now.
+
+``end-file`` (``MPV_EVENT_END_FILE``)
+ Happens after a file was unloaded. Typically, the player will load the
+ next file right away, or quit if this was the last file.
+
+ The event has the following fields:
+
+ ``reason``
+ Has one of these values:
+
+ ``eof``
+ The file has ended. This can (but doesn't have to) include
+ incomplete files or broken network connections under
+ circumstances.
+
+ ``stop``
+ Playback was ended by a command.
+
+ ``quit``
+ Playback was ended by sending the quit command.
+
+ ``error``
+ An error happened. In this case, an ``error`` field is present with
+ the error string.
+
+ ``redirect``
+ Happens with playlists and similar. Details see
+ ``MPV_END_FILE_REASON_REDIRECT`` in the C API.
+
+ ``unknown``
+ Unknown. Normally doesn't happen, unless the Lua API is out of sync
+ with the C API. (Likewise, it could happen that your script gets
+ reason strings that did not exist yet at the time your script was
+ written.)
+
+ ``playlist_entry_id``
+ Playlist entry ID of the file that was being played or attempted to be
+ played. This has the same value as the ``playlist_entry_id`` field in the
+ corresponding ``start-file`` event.
+
+ ``file_error``
+ Set to mpv error string describing the approximate reason why playback
+ failed. Unset if no error known. (In Lua scripting, this value was set
+ on the ``error`` field directly before mpv 0.33.0. Now the ``error``
+ field always indicates success, i.e. is not set.)
+
+``file-loaded`` (``MPV_EVENT_FILE_LOADED``)
+ Happens after a file was loaded and begins playback.
+
+``seek`` (``MPV_EVENT_SEEK``)
+ Happens on seeking. (This might include cases when the player seeks
+ internally, even without user interaction. This includes e.g. segment
+ changes when playing ordered chapters Matroska files.)
+
+``playback-restart`` (``MPV_EVENT_PLAYBACK_RESTART``)
+ Start of playback after seek or after file was loaded.
+
+``shutdown`` (``MPV_EVENT_SHUTDOWN``)
+ Sent when the player quits, and the script should terminate. Normally
+ handled automatically. See `Details on the script initialization and lifecycle`_.
+
+``log-message`` (``MPV_EVENT_LOG_MESSAGE``)
+ Receives messages enabled with ``mpv_request_log_messages()`` (Lua:
+ ``mp.enable_messages``).
+
+ This contains, in addition to the default event fields, the following
+ fields:
+
+ ``prefix``
+ The module prefix, identifies the sender of the message. This is what
+ the terminal player puts in front of the message text when using the
+ ``--v`` option, and is also what is used for ``--msg-level``.
+
+ ``level``
+ The log level as string. See ``msg.log`` for possible log level names.
+ Note that later versions of mpv might add new levels or remove
+ (undocumented) existing ones.
+
+ ``text``
+ The log message. The text will end with a newline character. Sometimes
+ it can contain multiple lines.
+
+ Keep in mind that these messages are meant to be hints for humans. You
+ should not parse them, and prefix/level/text of messages might change
+ any time.
+
+``hook``
+ The event has the following fields:
+
+ ``hook_id``
+ ID to pass to ``mpv_hook_continue()``. The Lua scripting wrapper
+ provides a better API around this with ``mp.add_hook()``.
+
+``get-property-reply`` (``MPV_EVENT_GET_PROPERTY_REPLY``)
+ Undocumented.
+
+``set-property-reply`` (``MPV_EVENT_SET_PROPERTY_REPLY``)
+ Undocumented.
+
+``command-reply`` (``MPV_EVENT_COMMAND_REPLY``)
+ Undocumented.
+
+``client-message`` (``MPV_EVENT_CLIENT_MESSAGE``)
+ Undocumented.
+
+``video-reconfig`` (``MPV_EVENT_VIDEO_RECONFIG``)
+ Happens on video output or filter reconfig.
+
+``audio-reconfig`` (``MPV_EVENT_AUDIO_RECONFIG``)
+ Happens on audio output or filter reconfig.
+
+The following events also happen, but are deprecated: ``tracks-changed``,
+``track-switched``, ``pause``, ``unpause``, ``metadata-update``, ``idle``,
+``tick``, ``chapter-change``. Use ``mpv_observe_property()``
+(Lua: ``mp.observe_property()``) instead.

- Idle mode is entered. This happens when playback ended, and the player was

-
-``tick``
- Called after a video frame was displayed. This is a hack, and you should
- avoid using it. Use timers instead and maybe watch pausing/unpausing events
- to avoid wasting CPU when the player is paused. This is deprecated.

- Sent when the player quits, and the script should terminate. Normally
