My situation is somewhat unusal -- I'm streaming from a local server that acts as a proxy, so I want to minimise prefetching (to avoid using up server resources). I doubt that the default configuration will suit me, but that's okay. What's not okay is that with older versions, I could simply tell my users to run mpv with "--cache no". With the new version, I'm going to have to ship a script. -- Juliusz
