[Feature req] A search or a filter function

[alolaoo]

Hey, is it possible to implement a search/filter function for the playlist files, like how the default mpv playlist has it (g-p)?

Thank you!

I see there is new feature that should make this not too hard https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#mp-input-functions

I will look into it at some point, thanks for the suggestion.

It's a little bit tricky with the native input functions:

• it hijacs the inputs for navigating the playlist, so using it as just an input is quite bad UX
• the list items are not very configurable

I think the feature is still good, but I think it may need to be a bit more custom made to work nicely in this script.
