Here a t least two possibilities:
- You could build using the upstream sources. This an accepted way in
a situation like this if there is no library.
- You could cooperate with upstream and make them release a library.
Miro: are you listening?

Yes I am listening.

I would like to see a real attempt to communicate with mpv upstream, to release a library - if that fails, then go with the first option.

To be clear - I'm not doing this, that's up to Ben. I can provide help, though.

I've contacted one of the MPV developers [1], and they said that there are plans for a shared library. However, they also re-iterated what the CMPlayer developer stated:

> But note that cmplayer is not really a frontend. It includes its own video output and a bunch of other stuff instead of native mpv functionality.

They also mentioned that the use of the planned shared library wouldn't work either:
