Function: isPositionDiscontinuity()

function isPositionDiscontinuity(event: PlayerEvent): boolean;

Defined in: packages/player/src/state.ts:1241

Whether an event invalidates the position anchor badly enough that the Player should spend one synchronous time-pos read on it.

Only playbackRestart qualifies: it is mpv's "position is meaningful again" signal after a seek or a load. Pause, rate and track changes are re-anchored arithmetically and need no read.

boolean
