This collects statistics and other things. The option dumps raw data
into a file. A script to visualize this data is included too.
Litter some of the player code with calls that generate these
statistics.
In general, this will be helpful to debug timing dependent issues, such
as A/V sync problems. Normally, one could argue that this is the task of
a real profiler, but then we'd have a hard time to include extra
information like audio/video PTS differences. We could also just
hardcode all statistics collection and processing in the player code,
but then we'd end up with something like mplayer's status line, which
was cluttered and required a centralized approach (i.e. getting the data
to the status line; so it was all in mplayer.c). Some players can
visualize such statistics on OSD, but that sounds even more complicated.
So the approach added with this commit sounds sensible.
The stats-conv.py script is rather primitive at the moment and its
output is semi-ugly. It uses matplotlib, so it could probably be
extended to do a lot, so it's not a dead-end.
It seems that it was causing issues with certain perl setups (such as
the one on issue #549). It also turns out that it was not behaving correctly
(not all constants were being promoted to big nums as they should), so we
use explicit objects to derive the constants.
There were also precedence issues. I wonder if this even worked right to
begin with.
The 'double' path (8-byte floats) is untested, as I couldn't easily find
a file with such a field.
Closes#549.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
This could cause the bundle to recache stuff because of differences with
configuration of other software using fonconfig. The defaults OS X directories
should be added to fontconfig at build time (through configure).
Make TOOLS/matroska.pl output structs with fields sorted by name in
ebml_types.h to make the order of fields deterministic. Fix warnings in
demux_mkv.c caused by the first struct fields switching between scalar
and struct types due to non-deterministic ebml_types.h field order.
Since it's deterministic now, this shouldn't change anymore.
The warnings produced by the compilers are bogus, but we want to silence
them anyway, since this could make developers overlook legitimate
warnings.
What commits 7b52ba8, 6dd97cc, 4aae1ff were supposed to fix. An earlier
attempt sorted fields in the generated C source file, not the header
file. Hopefully this is the last commit concerning this issue...
Newer versions of perl randomize the hash used for hashes every time
it's run; this makes the order of the fields be non-deterministic. Tack
a sort there to make it deterministic. Needed to fix (or allow fixing) a
buggy gcc warning.
Commit broke text subtitles without embedded fonts. Will look for a better
solution later. Revert it for now, since I'm starting to get bug reports.
This reverts commit 4a9f618d9f.
This is to avoid the 30s hang while mpv caches fonts. In practice all the
fonts an average user is going to use are embedded in mkv files so there is
no reason to build fontconfig's cache on all of OS X system directories.
I might add something similar for terminal usage, but I am highly undecided.
Pretty useful for people writing userscripts for web browsers. Links starting
with 'mpv://' are forwarded to the mpv OSX bundle. The leading 'mpv://' is
stripped from the recived url and the rest of the string is inserted as is in
the playlist.
The png file added to etc/ are taken from the link mentioned in commit
303096b, except that they have been converted to 16 bit, sRGB (with
color profile info dropped, if there was one), and transparent pixels
reset for better compression.
The file x11_icon.bin is generated by gen-x11-icon.sh. I'm adding it to
the git repo directly, because the script requires ImageMagick, and we
don't want to make building even more complicated.
The way how this is done is basically a compromise between effort
required in x11_common.c and in gen-x11-icon.sh. Ideally, x11_icon.bin
would be directly in the format as required by _NET_WM_ICON, but trying
to write the binary width/height values from shell would probably be a
nightmare, so here we go.
The zlib code in x11_common.c is lifted from demux_mkv.c, with some
modifications (like accepting a gzip header, because I don't know how to
make gzip write raw compressed data).
I would like to thank Chris Ward (@tenzerothree, http://tenzerothree.com/) for
working on the art for these icons and bringing some eye candy to the project.
The PSDs made by Chris are available on our Dropbox [1], along with the exports
I made to create OSX and Windows icons. The PSDs are almost completly vector
and all the resolutions look really similar, except the 16px favicon which was
handcrafted to look better and more recognizeable on the smaller pixel budget.
For Mac OS X the icons were created using iconutils on the PNGs iconsets
exported from the PSDs. These even support retina resolutions (except 512@2x).
For Windows the .ico file was created with imagemagick. The included images
are 16px, 24px, 32px, 48px 64px, 256px. These are the resolutions listed on
MSDN for supporting Windows XP [2] and Windows versions based on Aero [3].
Only 32bit PNGs were used since it is 2013.
For Linux nothing changed yet, even though @wm4 talked about using the PNGs
directly there. This will probably be dealt with in a later commit.

Instead of generating vdpau_template.c with a Perl script, just include
the generated file in git. This is ok because it changes very rarely,
and the script is larger than the output it generates.
It also simplify the Makefile, and fixes the build. The problem was that
transitive dependencies do not work with generated files: there is no
dependency information yet when building it the first time. I overlooked
this because I didn't delete the .d files for testing (which contained
the correct dependencies, but only _after_ a first successful build).
For quiet mode: ILDETECT_QUIET=1 ildetect.sh ...
Telecine decision (guess by ildetect.so) is verified by retrying the
ildetect run with the pullup filter inserted.
Prevents the status line from being printed. Otherwise, the status line
is always printed due to --frames=1, and it's visible on the terminal
because it's printed to stderr.
