The ``try_ytdl_first`` script option accepts a boolean 'yes' or 'no', and if
'yes' will try parsing the URL with youtube-dl first, instead of the default
where it's only after mpv failed to open it. This mostly depends on whether
most of your URLs need youtube-dl parsing.

The `exclude` script option accepts a ``|``-separated list of URL patterns
The ``exclude`` script option accepts a ``|``-separated list of URL patterns
which mpv should not use with youtube-dl. The patterns are matched after
the ``http(s)://`` part of the URL.

The `use_manifests` script option makes mpv use the master manifest URL for
formats like HLS and DASH, if available, allowing for video/audio selection
in runtime. It's disabled ("no") by default for performance reasons.

``^`` matches the beginning of the URL, ``$`` matches its end, and you
should use ``%`` before any of the characters ``^$()%|,.[]*+-?`` to match
that character.
