It seems like adjusting the raw stream ID should be done only for DVD.
Otherwise, getting the subtitle language for Bluray breaks.
Untested. Regression since fb9a32977d.
Fixes#4611 (probably).
Similar purpose as f34e1a0dee.
Somehow this is much more natural too, and needs less code.
This breaks runtime updates to duration. This could easily be fixed, but
no important demuxer does this anyway. Only demux_raw and demux_disc
might (the latter for BD/DVD). For the latter it might actually have
some importance when changing titles at runtime (I guess?), but guess
what, I don't care.
This is more uniform, and potentially gets rid of some past copyrights.
It might be that this subtly changes caching behavior (it seems before
this, it synced to the demuxer if the length was unknown, which is not
what we want.)
Because it's kind of dumb. (But not sure if it was worth the trouble.)
For stream_file.c, we add new explicit fields. The rest are rather
special uses and can be killed by comparing the stream impl. name.
The changes to DVD/BD/CD/TV are entirely untested.
When switching tracks, we normally have the problem that data gets lost
due to readahead buffering. (Which in turn is because we're stubborn and
instruct the demuxers to discard data on unselected streams.) The
demuxer layer has a hack that re-reads discarded buffered data if a
stream is enabled mid-stream, so track switching will seem instant.
A somewhat similar problem is when all tracks of an external files were
disabled - when enabling the first track, we have to seek to the target
position.
Handle these with the same mechanism. Pass the "current time" to the
demuxer's stream switch function, and let the demuxer figure out what to
do. The demuxer will issue a refresh seek (if possible) to update the
new stream, or will issue a "normal" seek if there was no active stream
yet.
One case that changes is when a video/audio stream is enabled on an
external file with only a subtitle stream active, and the demuxer does
not support rrefresh seeks. This is a fuzzy case, because subtitles are
sparse, and the demuxer might have skipped large amounts of data. We
used to seek (and send the subtitle decoder some subtitle packets
twice). This case is sort of obscure and insane, and the fix would be
questionable, so we simply don't care.
Should mostly fix#3392.
Ever since a change in mplayer2 or so, relative seeks were translated to
absolute seeks before sending them to the demuxer in most cases. The
only exception in current mpv is DVD seeking.
Remove the SEEK_ABSOLUTE flag; it's not the implied default. SEEK_FACTOR
is kept, because it's sometimes slightly useful for seeking in things
like transport streams. (And maybe mkv files without duration set?)
DVD seeking is terrible because DVD and libdvdnav are terrible, but
mostly because libdvdnav is terrible. libdvdnav does not expose seeking
with seek tables. (Although I know xbmc/kodi use an undocumented API
that is not declared in the headers by dladdr()ing it - I think the
function is dvdnav_jump_to_sector_by_time().) With the current mpv
policy if not giving a shit about DVD, just revert our half-working seek
hacks and always use dvdnav_time_search(). Relative seeking might get
stuck sometimes; in this case --hr-seek=always is recommended.
This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.
There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.
A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).
common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.
codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.
From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).
misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.
screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.
This is mainly a refactor. I'm hoping it will make some things easier
in the future due to cleanly separating codec metadata and stream
metadata.
Also, declare that the "codec" field can not be NULL anymore. demux.c
will set it to "" if it's NULL when added. This gets rid of a corner
case everything had to handle, but which rarely happened.
The demuxer infrastructure was originally single-threaded. To make it
suitable for multithreading (specifically, demuxing and decoding on
separate threads), some sort of tripple-buffering was introduced. There
are separate "struct demuxer" allocations. The demuxer thread sets the
state on d_thread. If anything changes, the state is copied to d_buffer
(the copy is protected by a lock), and the decoder thread is notified.
Then the decoder thread copies the state from d_buffer to d_user (again
while holding a lock). This avoids the need for locking in the
demuxer/decoder code itself (only demux.c needs an internal, "invisible"
lock.)
Remove the streams/num_streams fields from this tripple-buffering
schema. Move them to the internal struct, and protect them with the
internal lock. Use accessors for read access outside of demux.c.
Other than replacing all field accesses with accessors, this separates
allocating and adding sh_streams. This is needed to avoid race
conditions. Before this change, this was awkwardly handled by first
initializing the sh_stream, and then sending a stream change event. Now
the stream is allocated, then initialized, and then declared as
immutable and added (at which point it becomes visible to the decoder
thread immediately).
This change is useful for PR #2626. And eventually, we should probably
get entirely of the tripple buffering, and this makes a nice first step.
Commit 127da161 was not properly tested either - it did nothing, and
just made it use the video bitstream aspect ratio determined by
libavformat (which isn't always the correct one).
MPlayer traditionally always used the display aspect ratio, e.g. 16:9,
while FFmpeg uses the sample (aka pixel) aspect ratio.
Both have a bunch of advantages and disadvantages. Actually, it seems
using sample aspect ratio is generally nicer. The main reason for the
change is making mpv closer to how FFmpeg works in order to make life
easier. It's also nice that everything uses integer fractions instead
of floats now (except --video-aspect option/property).
Note that there is at least 1 user-visible change: vf_dsize now does
not set the display size, only the display aspect ratio. This is
because the image_params d_w/d_h fields did not just set the display
aspect, but also the size (except in encoding mode).
This has no reason to be there. Put the functionality into another
function instead. While we're at it, also adjust for possible accuracy
issues with high bit depth YUV (matters for rendering subtitles into
screenshots only).
Nobody wanted to restore this, so it gets the boot.
If anyone still wants to volunteer to restore menu support, this would
be welcome. (I might even try it myself if I feel masochistic and like
wasting a lot of time for nothing.) But if it does get restored, it
should be done differently. There were many stupid things about how it
was done. For example, it somehow tried to pull mp_nav_events through
all the layers (including needing to "buffer" them in the demuxer),
which was needlessly complicated. It could be done simpler.
This code was already inactive, so this commit actually changes nothing.
Also keep in mind that normal DVD/BD playback still works.
MPlayer traditionally had completely separate sh_ structs for
audio/video/subs, without a good way to share fields. This meant that
fields shared across all these headers had to be duplicated. This commit
deduplicates essentially the last remaining duplicated fields.
The only reason why cdda:// goes through this wrapper-demuxer is so that
we add chapters to it. Most things related to seeking apply only to
DVD/BD, and in fact broke CDDA sekkability.
Fixes#1555.
Pass through the seek flags to the stream layer. The STREAM_CTRL
semantics become a bit awkward, but that's still the least awkward
part about optical disc media.
Make demux_disc.c request relative seeks. Now the player will use
relative seeks if the user sends relative seek commands, and the
demuxer announces it wants these by setting rel_seeks to true. This
change probably changes seek behavior for dvd, dvdnav, bluray, cdda,
and possibly makes seeking useless if the demuxer-cache is set to
a high value.
Will be used in the next commit. (Split to make reverting the next
commit easier.)
This was completely breaking any low-level caching. Change it so that at
least demuxer caching will work.
Do this by using the metadata cache mechanism to funnel through the menu
commands.
For some incomprehensible reason, I had to reorder the events (which
affects their delivery priority), or they would be ignored. Probably
some crap about the event state being cleared before it could be
delivered. I don't give a shit.
All this code sucks. It would probably be better to let discnav.c access
the menu event "queue" directly, and to synchronize access with a mutex,
instead of going through all the caching layers, making things
complicated and slow.
Instead of defining a separate data structure in the core.
For some odd reason, demux_chapter exported the chapter time in
nano-seconds. Change that to the usual timestamps (rename the field
to make any code relying on this to fail compilation), and also remove
the unused chapter end time.
Commit 50e131b43e happened to make it work for DVD (because the higher
bits of the ID are masked in the DVD case), but failed for Bluray. This
probably fixes it, although I don't have a sample to multiple streams to
confirm it really does it right.

When flushing the AVIOContext, make sure it can't seek back to discarded
data. buf_ptr is just the current read position, while buf_end - buffer
is the actual buffer size. Since mpegts.c is littered with seek calls,
it might be that the ability to seek could read
Mark the stream (which the demuxer uses) as not seekable. The cache can
enable seeking again (this behavior is sometimes useful for other
things). I think this should have had no bad influence in theory, since
seeking BD/DVD first does the "real" seek, then flushes libavformat and
reads new packets.
This adds a thread to the demuxer which reads packets asynchronously.
It will do so until a configurable minimum packet queue size is
reached. (See options.rst additions.)
For now, the thread is disabled by default. There are some corner cases
that have to be fixed, such as fixing cache behavior with webradios.
Note that most interaction with the demuxer is still blocking, so if
e.g. network dies, the player will still freeze. But this change will
make it possible to remove most causes for freezing.
Most of the new code in demux.c actually consists of weird caches to
compensate for thread-safety issues (with the previously single-threaded
design), or to avoid blocking by having to wait on the demuxer thread.
Most of the changes in the player are due to the fact that we must not
access the source stream directly. the demuxer thread already accesses
it, and the stream stuff is not thread-safe.
For timeline stuff (like ordered chapters), we enable the thread for the
current segment only. We also clear its packet queue on seek, so that
the remaining (unconsumed) readahead buffer doesn't waste memory.
Keep in mind that insane subtitles (such as ASS typesetting muxed into
mkv files) will practically disable the readahead, because the total
queue size is considered when checking whether the minimum queue size
was reached.
libdvdnav can actually jump into the middle of the DVD (e.g. scene
selection menus do that). Then time display is incorrect: we start from
0, even though playback time is somewhere else. This really matters when
seeking. If the display time mismatches, a small relative seek will
apparently jump to the beginning of the movie.
Fix this by initializing the PTS stuff on opening. We have to do this
after some small amount of data has been read from the stream (because
libdvdnav is crap and doesn't always update the time between seeks and
the first read; also see STREAM_CTRL_GET_CURRENT_TIME remarks in
cache.c; although this was not observed when testing with scene
selection menus). On the other hand, we want to do it before opening the
demuxer, because that will read large amounts of data and likely will
change the stream position.
Also see commit 49813670.
Technically needed, but not strictly. It seems it works without in
practice, because demux_lavf.c reads exactly one packet for fill_buffer
call, so there are never packets queued.
We used a complicated and approximate method to cache the stream
timestamp, which is basically per-byte. (To reduce overhead, it was only
cached per 8KB-block, so it was approximate.)
Simplify this, and read/keep the timestamp only on discontinuities. This
is when demux_disc.c actually needs the timestamp.
Note that caching is currently disabled for dvdnav, but we still read
the timestamp only after some data is read. libdvdread behaves well, but
I don't know about libbluray, and the previous code also read the
timestamp only after reading data, so try to keep it safe.
Also drop the start_time offset. It wouldn't be correct anymore if used
with the cache, and the idea behind it wasn't very sane either (making
the player to offset the initial playback time to 0).
This should work now, at least kind of. Note that actual success depends
on the behavior of the underlying lib{dvd{nav,read},bluray}
implementation, which could go very wrong.
In the worst case, it could happen that the underlying implementation
seeks a long time before the seek target time. In this case, the player
will just decode video until the target time is reached, even if that
requires e.g. decoding 30 mintues of video before refreshing.
In the not-so-bad but still bad case, it would just miss the seek
target, and seek past it.
In my tests, it works mostly ok, though. Seeking backwards usually
fails, unless something like --hr-seek-demuxer-offset=1 is used (this
makes it seek to 1 second before the target, which may or may not be
enough to compensate for the DVD/BD imprecision).
This is a pretty big change. Instead of doing a half-hearted passthrough
of the playback timestamp, we attempt to rewrite the raw MPEG timestamps
such that they match with the playback time.
We add the offset between raw start timestamp and playback time to the
packet timestamps. This is the easy part; but the problem is with
timestamp resets. We simply detect timestamp discontinuities by checking
whether they are more than 500ms apart (large enough for all video
faster than 2 FPS and audio with reasonable framesizes/samplerates), and
adjust the timestamp offset accordingly.
This should work pretty well. There may be some problems with subtitles.
If the first packet after a timestamp reset is a subtitle instead of
video, it will fail. Also, selecting multiple audio or video streams
won't work (but mpv doesn't allow selecting several anyway). Trying to
demux subtitles with no video stream enabled will probably fail.
Untested with Bluray, because I have no Bluray sample.
Background:
libdvdnav/libdvdread/libbluray make this relatively hard. They return a
raw MPEG (PS/TS) byte stream, and additionally to that provide a
function to retrieve the current "playback" time. The playback time is
what should be displayed to the user, while the MPEG timestamps can be
completely different. Even worse, the MPEG timestamps can reset. Since
we use the libavformat demuxer (instead of parsing the MPEG packets in
the DVD/BD code), it's hard to associate between these timestamps. As a
result, the time display is special cased in the playloop, and of low
quality (updates only all 1 or 2 seconds, sometimes is incorrect). The
fact that the stream cache can be between demuxer and the stream source
makes things worse.
All the libs seem to provide an event that tells whether timestamps are
resetting. But since this signalling is byte based, it's hard to connect
it to the demuxed MPEG packets. It might be possible to create some sort
of table mapping file positions to discontinuities and new timestamps.
(For simplicity, this table could be 2 entries large, sufficient to
catch all discontinuities if the distance between them is larger than
the total buffering.)
DVD and Bluray (and to some extent cdda) require awful hacks all over
the codebase to make them work. The main reason is that they act like
container, but are entirely implemented on the stream layer. The raw
mpeg data resulting from these streams must be "extended" with the
container-like metadata transported via STREAM_CTRLs. The result were
hacks all over demux.c and some higher-level parts.
Add a "disc" pseudo-demuxer, and move all these hacks and special-cases
to it.
