--ytdl-format=best option.

Release 0.9.2

Note: due to the release manager being MIA, releases are hereby stopped. Use git master.

Changes

• The Lua check now also checks for lua52.pc, as used by Arch Linux testing.
• (X11) vo_opengl's icc-profile-auto now queries the current ICC profile
  relative to the center of the window.
• ao_coreaudio, ao_alsa now support adding dummy padding channels for
  better compatibility with hardware decoders that only support specific
  channel counts (e.g. 5.1 now should work on a decoder that only accepts 7.1).
• Channel fallback (in case the audio device doesn't natively support a given
  channel layout) has been improved.
• vf_vapoursynth now rejects unaligned video instead of outputting corrupted
  video.
• mpv now tries to autoload .sup subtitles as well.

Bug fixes

• vo_opengl's default for fbo-format is now rgba16, to avoid rounding
  errors when using non-default cscale (issue #1918).
• Improved framedrop behavior when playing video that has higher framerate
  than the display (issue #1897).
• Trying to play a directory will no longer spam Connection lost! to the
  console log.
• (Linux) Several vo_rpi bugfixes.
• (Linux) Several vo_drm bugfixes. Pan&Scan is now supported.
• (X11) Fix fullscreen behavior on certain window managers (issues #1937,
  #1920).
• (OSX) The OSD no longer always shows up on startup.
• (OSX) Several ao_coreaudio and ao_coreaudio_exclusive bugfixes.
• (OSX) Fixed potential crash on exit when using Cocoa.
• (ClientAPI) vo_opengl_cb now actually applies options changed at runtime.
• (OSX, ClientAPI) Cocoa now works when both the cplayer (mpv) and libmpv
  are built at the same time; however, libmpv now always creates an
  application singleton. Cocoa has to be disabled completely to prevent
  libmpv from creating the singleton.
