-- This is here so both changing files and changing audio id (if channel count changes) should retrigger main.
function file_ended()
    mp.unregister_event(file_ended)
    mp.unobserve_property(main)
    mp.register_event("file-loaded", file_loaded)
end

function file_loaded()
    mp.unregister_event(file_loaded)
    mp.register_event("end-file", file_ended)
    mp.observe_property("audio-params/channel-count", "number", main)
end

mp.register_event("file-loaded", file_loaded)

I receive an audio device underrun warning in the console every time I start watching a new video. However, this issue does not occur when resuming playback. The warning only appears once at the beginning of each video when using the Lua script. Interestingly, if I hardcode the audio filter in my mpv.conf, this problem does not manifest.

Thank you for making this plugin, I have been using it every day now!

whoa this is amazing good job on this!
