`both` now means overlay + system notification. `osd` and `osd-system` are legacy config-file-only values; set `notificationType` to `"osd-system"` in `config.jsonc` if you previously used `both` and want to keep mpv OSD + system notifications. The Settings window shows `osd` or `osd-system` when already configured, but only offers `overlay`, `system`, `both`, and `none` as normal choices.
When media is available, mined-card overlay and system notifications include the same current-frame thumbnail.
`overwriteAudio` applies to automatic card updates and duplicate-card enrichment. Manual clipboard subtitle updates (`Ctrl/Cmd+C`, then `Ctrl/Cmd+V`) always replace generated sentence audio, while leaving the word audio field unchanged.

`osd` and `osd-system` are legacy config-file-only notification values. The Settings window offers `overlay`, `system`, `both`, and `none`; if your config already contains `osd` or `osd-system`, it is shown as the selected value but not offered as a normal choice. If you previously used `both` for mpv OSD + system notifications, set `notificationType` to `"osd-system"` in `config.jsonc` to keep that behavior.
### Notifications
Configure where overlay notification cards appear:
```json
{
"notifications": {
"overlayPosition": "top-right"
}
}
```
| Option | Values | Description |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `overlayPosition` | `"top-left"` \| `"top"` \| `"top-right"` | Position for in-overlay notification cards. Default `"top-right"`. |
#### Notification history panel
Every overlay notification shown during a session is also recorded in a notification history panel. Press `Ctrl/Cmd+N` (configurable via [`shortcuts.toggleNotificationHistory`](#shortcuts-configuration)) to toggle the panel; the binding works whether the overlay or mpv has focus. The panel slides in from the same edge the notifications use — left when `overlayPosition` is `"top-left"`, and right for `"top-right"` or `"top"` (centered). Character dictionary sync uses one live card but records each distinct phase in history. Each entry can be removed individually, or use **Clear** to empty the history. History is session-only and is not persisted across restarts.
Startup tokenization, subtitle annotation, and character dictionary status follow the configured notification surface. When the surface is `"overlay"` or `"both"`, SubMiner queues those startup notifications until the overlay renderer is ready instead of falling back to mpv OSD. If loading and ready states both finish before the overlay can paint, the loading card is delivered first and then updates to ready shortly after. With `"both"`, character dictionary checking/building/importing/ready status also goes to system notifications; building and importing are only emitted when that work is actually needed. The bundled mpv plugin only shows its startup OSD messages when `ankiConnect.behavior.notificationType` is set to `"osd"` or `"osd-system"` in `config.jsonc`; AniSkip prompts and skip result messages are playback feedback and still route to overlay notifications when configured.
The equivalent direct CLI command is `--playback-feedback <text>` (`playbackFeedback` internally). It sends that one non-empty feedback string through the same route controlled by `ankiConnect.behavior.notificationType`; it does not change the saved config.

Two related keys in the `mpv` block tune startup behavior: `mpv.autoStartSubMiner` starts the overlay automatically when a file loads, and `mpv.pauseUntilOverlayReady` pauses mpv on visible auto-start until SubMiner signals overlay/tokenization readiness.

# MPV Plugin
**What this is:** mpv is the video player SubMiner overlays subtitles on. The SubMiner mpv plugin is a small Lua script that runs *inside* mpv and gives you in-player keybindings to control the SubMiner overlay (start/stop/toggle, skip intro, etc.) without leaving the player window.

**Who needs this page:** Most users never touch the plugin directly - SubMiner-managed launches (the app, the `subminer` launcher, or the Windows shortcut) inject the bundled plugin automatically for that session, so there is nothing to install into mpv's global `scripts` directory. Read on if you launch mpv from another tool and want SubMiner's in-player controls, or you want to script mpv against SubMiner.

The AniSkip key is **not** a `y` chord and is not bound by the plugin: the SubMiner app binds it over the mpv IPC socket while it is connected. It defaults to `TAB` and is configurable via `mpv.aniskipButtonKey`. The legacy `y-k` chord still works as a fallback unless you remap the AniSkip key onto it. See [AniSkip Integration](/aniskip-integration) for setup and details.

For how the plugin's auto-start fits into the full launch sequence - including when the launcher starts the overlay instead of the plugin - see [Playback Startup Flow](./architecture#playback-startup-flow).
- **File loaded**: If `auto_start=yes`, the plugin starts the overlay.
- **Auto-start pause gate**: If `auto_start_visible_overlay=yes` and `auto_start_pause_until_ready=yes`, launcher starts mpv paused and the plugin resumes playback after SubMiner reports tokenization-ready (with timeout fallback).
- **Auto-start pause gate**: If `auto_start_visible_overlay=yes` and `auto_start_pause_until_ready=yes`, launcher starts mpv paused. On cold managed background startup, SubMiner opens the tray and visible overlay shell before tokenization warmups finish, then the plugin resumes playback after SubMiner reports tokenization-ready (with a 30-second timeout fallback).
- **Duplicate auto-start events**: Repeated `file-loaded` hooks while overlay is already running are ignored for auto-start triggers (prevents duplicate start attempts).
- **MPV shutdown**: The plugin sends a stop command to gracefully shut down both the overlay and the texthooker server.
- **Texthooker**: Starts as a separate subprocess before the overlay to ensure the app lock is acquired first.
