Description
Expected behavior of the wanted feature
Video has a duration of 10 seconds; mpv shows 10 seconds in the osc.
Video starts at 1 second; mpv auto-seeks to 1 second, even if you seek to 0.
Video stops at 9 seconds; mpv auto-seeks to 9 seconds, even if you seek to 10 seconds.
I want mpv properties video-playable-start-time that shows the 1 second, and video-playable-end-time that shows the 9 seconds.
