Mpv: Request for ability to show osc during seeks, either via new Input Command Prefix: osc (or osc-show, or similar), or cli/config option

[AndydeCleyre]

The use case I have in mind is seeking, while osd-level=0 is set, and the user would like to see the progress via the osc.

So the behavior of a new Input Command Prefix would be similar to that of osd-bar, but displaying the osc instead of the osd.

I don't know if this would be desirable for other commands for other users, so I'll note that for my particular satisfaction, I would also consider a cli/config option to display the osc during seeks to solve this ticket as well.

@wiiaboo Has mentioned that this may depend on #2891.

I want this too ! An option to show osc on any seek command and pause/unpause would be useful and consistant.

Perhaps something as simple as osc to go into input.conf when defining keybinds. I would very much like this for WHEEL_UP and WHEEL_DOWN.

Check out python-mpv issue #124. The lua script there is a workaround until this gets solved in mpv.
