My understanding is that it is the way forward for the mpv project, so
we may as well do it that way if we are going to support mpv, and it's
bi-directional:
"""
--input-file=<filename>
Read commands from the given file. Mostly useful with a FIFO. Since
mpv 0.7.0 also understands JSON commands (see JSON IPC), but you
can't get replies or events. Use --input-ipc-server for something
bi-directional.
