The first one is printed even if the user disabled video (or there's no
video), so just remove it. The second one uses deprecated sub-option
syntax, so remove that as well.
Replace all the check macros with function calls. Give them all the
same case and naming schema.
Drop af_fmt2bits(). Only af_fmt2bps() survives as af_fmt_to_bytes().
Introduce af_fmt_is_pcm(), and use it in situations that used
!AF_FORMAT_IS_SPECIAL. Nobody really knew what a "special" format
was. It simply meant "not PCM".
Before this commit, there was AF_FORMAT_AC3 (the original spdif format,
used for AC3 and DTS core), and AF_FORMAT_IEC61937 (used for AC3, DTS
and DTS-HD), which was handled as some sort of superset for
AF_FORMAT_AC3. There also was AF_FORMAT_MPEG2, which used
IEC61937-framing, but still was handled as something "separate".
Technically, all of them are pretty similar, but may use different
bitrates. Since digital passthrough pretends to be PCM (just with
special headers that wrap digital packets), this is easily detectable by
the higher samplerate or higher number of channels, so I don't know why
you'd need a separate "class" of sample formats (AF_FORMAT_AC3 vs.
AF_FORMAT_IEC61937) to distinguish them. Actually, this whole thing is
just a mess.
Simplify this by handling all these formats the same way.
AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937() now returns 1 for all spdif formats (even MP3).
All AOs just accept all spdif formats now - whether that works or not is
not really clear (seems inconsistent due to earlier attempts to make
DTS-HD work). But on the other hand, enabling spdif requires manual user
interaction, so it doesn't matter much if initialization fails in
slightly less graceful ways if it can't work at all.
At a later point, we will support passthrough with ao_pulse. It seems
the PulseAudio API wants to know the codec type (or maybe not - feeding
it DTS while telling it it's AC3 works), add separate formats for each
codecs. While this reminds of the earlier chaos, it's stricter, and most
code just uses AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937().
Also, modify AF_FORMAT_TYPE_MASK (renamed from AF_FORMAT_POINT_MASK) to
include special formats, so that it always describes the fundamental
sample format type. This also ensures valid AF formats are never 0 (this
was probably broken in one of the earlier commits from today).
Until now, the audio chain could handle both little endian and big
endian formats. This actually doesn't make much sense, since the audio
API and the HW will most likely prefer native formats. Or at the very
least, it should be trivial for audio drivers to do the byte swapping
themselves.
From now on, the audio chain contains native-endian formats only. All
AOs and some filters are adjusted. af_convertsignendian.c is now wrongly
named, but the filter name is adjusted. In some cases, the audio
infrastructure was reused on the demuxer side, but that is relatively
easy to rectify.
This is a quite intrusive and radical change. It's possible that it will
break some things (especially if they're obscure or not Linux), so watch
out for regressions. It's probably still better to do it the bulldozer
way, since slow transition and researching foreign platforms would take
a lot of time and effort.
IEC 61937 frames should always be little endian (little endian 16 bit
words). I don't see any apparent need why the audio chain should handle
swapped-endian formats.
It could be that some audio outputs might want them (especially on big
endian architectures). On the other hand, it's not clear how that works
on these architectures, and it's not even known whether the current code
works on big endian at all. If something should break, and it should
turn out that swapped-endian spdif is needed on any platform/AO,
swapping still could be done in-place within the affected AO, and
there's no need for the additional complexity in the rest of the player.
Note that af_lavcac3enc outputs big endian spdif frames for unknown
reasons. Normally, the resulting data is just pulled through an auto-
inserted conversion filter and turned into little endian. Maybe this was
done as a trick so that the code didn't have to byte-swap the actual
audio frame. In any case, just make it output little endian frames.
All of this is untested, because I have no receiver hardware.
In most places where af_fmt2bits is called to get the bits/sample, the
result is immediately converted to bytes/sample. Avoid this by getting
bytes/sample directly by introducing af_fmt2bps.
Until now, this was always conflated with uninit. This was ugly, and
also many AOs emulated this manually (or just ignored it). Make draining
an explicit operation, so AOs which support it can provide it, and for
all others generic code will emulate it.
For ao_wasapi, we keep it simple and basically disable the internal
draining implementation (maybe it should be restored later).
Tested on Linux only.
We want to move the AO to its own thread. There's no technical reason
for making the ao struct opaque to do this. But it helps us sleep at
night, because we can control access to shared state better.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
This comes with two internal AO API changes:
1. ao_driver.play now can take non-interleaved audio. For this purpose,
the data pointer is changed to void **data, where data[0] corresponds to
the pointer in the old API. Also, the len argument as well as the return
value are now in samples, not bytes. "Sample" in this context means the
unit of the smallest possible audio frame, i.e. sample_size * channels.
2. ao_driver.get_space now returns samples instead of bytes. (Similar to
the play function.)
Change all AOs to use the new API.
The AO API as exposed to the rest of the player still uses the old API.
It's emulated in ao.c. This is purely to split the commits changing all
AOs and the commits adding actual support for outputting N-I audio.
No AO can handle these, so it would be a problem if they get added
later, and non-interleaved formats get accepted erroneously. Let them
gracefully fall back to other formats.
Most AOs actually would fall back, but to an unrelated formats. This is
covered by this commit too, and if possible they should pick the
interleaved variant if a non-interleaved format is requested.
At least not with ffmpeg.
Honestly, I have no idea how little endian AC3 works at all, since
ao_pcm doesn't do anything special about it, and treats it like s16le.
Maybe it's broken and ffmpeg has special logic to detect it.
Use the new MP_ macros for some AOs instead of mp_msg.
Not all AOs are converted, and some only partially. In some cases, some
additional cosmetic changes are made.
The core didn't use these fields, and use of them was inconsistent
accross AOs. Some didn't use them at all. Some only set them; the values
were completely unused by the core. Some made full use of them.
Remove these fields. In places where they are still needed, make them
private AO state.
Remove the --abs option. It set the buffer size for ao_oss and ao_dsound
(being ignored by all other AOs), and was already marked as obsolete. If
it turns out that it's still needed for ao_oss or ao_dsound, their
default buffer sizes could be adjusted, and if even that doesn't help,
AO suboptions could be added in these cases.
Make all AOs use what has been introduced in the previous commit.
Note that even AOs which can handle all possible layouts (like ao_null)
use the new functions. This might be important if in the future
ao_select_champ() possibly honors global user options about downmixing
and so on.
This actually breaks audio for 5/6/8 channels. There's no reordering
done yet. The actual reordering will be done inside of af_lavrresample
and has to be made part of the format negotiation.
The option is -no-video. Remove the deprecated "fast" suboption, which
did nothing and instructed the user to use "-novideo" instead.
Fix a reference to -novideo in encoding.rst.
Add a "generic" entry about -no-* to the list of renamed options. The
change is already explicitly mentioned in the text above the table, but
even if it's redundant, it makes it harder to overlook.
Finish renaming directories and moving files. Adjust all include
statements to make the previous commit compile.
The two commits are separate, because git is bad at tracking renames
and content changes at the same time.
Also take this as an opportunity to remove the separation between
"common" and "mplayer" sources in the Makefile. ("common" used to be
shared between mplayer and mencoder.)
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
