From 43ac656b029c3681b84d7713457ab94acb50097e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guido Cella Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2024 07:29:39 +0100 Subject: DOCS/mpv: the playback position is not remembered after poweroff This doesn't actually work on either Windows or Linux with --terminal. With --no-terminal or --no-input-terminal the SIGTERM handler is never registered, so it definitely can't work. Just remove the note about signals because it would be complicated to explain that they don't terminate abruptly only with --terminal and only if that signal has a handler, and it wouldn't be of interest to most users. --- DOCS/man/mpv.rst | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'DOCS') diff --git a/DOCS/man/mpv.rst b/DOCS/man/mpv.rst index cd5f9de82c..2f15cb6917 100644 --- a/DOCS/man/mpv.rst +++ b/DOCS/man/mpv.rst @@ -1122,10 +1122,10 @@ commands ``quit-watch-later`` (bound to Shift+Q by default) and The difference between always quitting with a key bound to ``quit-watch-later`` and using ``--save-position-on-quit`` is that the latter will save the playback -position even when mpv is closed with a method other than a keybinding, for -example if you shutdown your system without closing mpv beforehand, unless of -course mpv is terminated abruptly and doesn't have the time to save (e.g. with -the KILL Unix signal). +position even when mpv is closed with a method other than a keybinding, such as +clicking the close button in the window title bar.
