There's no reason why parts of this demuxer would be in a separate
source file. The existence of this code is already somewhat questionable
anyway, so it may as well be dumped into a single file.
Even stranger that demux.c included mf.h for no reason (it was an
artifact from 2002 when the architecture was uncleaner).
The TV code pretends to be part of stream/, but it's actually demuxer
code too. The audio_in code is shared between the TV code and
stream_radio.c, so stream_radio.c needs a small hack until stream.c is
converted.
This used to be needed to access the generic stream header from the
specific headers, which in turn was needed because the decoders had
access only to the specific headers. This is not the case anymore, so
this can finally be removed again.
Also move the "format" field from the specific headers to sh_stream.
Instead of having each demuxer do it (only demux_mkv actually did...),
let generic code determine whether the file is seekable. This requires
adding exceptions to demuxers where the stream is not seekable, but the
demuxer is.
Sort-of try to improve handling of unseekable files in the player. Exit
early if the file is determined to be unseekable, instead of resetting
all decoders and then performing a pointless seek.
Add an exception to allow seeking if the file is not seekable, but the
stream cache is enabled. Print a warning in this case, because seeking
outside the cache (which we can't prevent since the demuxer is not aware
of this problem) still messes everything up.
Pointless, using stream->start_pos/end_pos instead.
demux_mf was the only place where this was used specially, but we can
rely on timestamps instead for this case.
All demuxers make a reasonable effort to set packet timestamps, and thus
support correct-pts mode. This commit also implicitly switches
demux_rawvideo to correct-pts mode.
We still allow demuxers to disable correct-pts mode in theory.
Get rid of the strange and messy reliance on DEMUXER_TYPE_ constants.
Instead of having two open functions for the demuxer callbacks (which
somehow are both optional, but you can also decide to implement both...),
just have one function. This function takes a parameter that tells the
demuxer how strictly it should check for the file headers. This is a
nice simplification and allows more flexibility.
Remove the file extension code. This literally did nothing (anymore).
Change demux_lavf so that we check our other builtin demuxers first
before libavformat tries to guess by file extension.
This removes the dependency on DEMUXER_TYPE_* and the file_format
parameter from the stream open functions.
Remove some of the playlist handling code. It looks like this was
needed only for loading linked mov files with demux_mov (which was
removed long ago).
Delete a minor bit of dead network-related code from stream.c as well.
Generally remove all accesses to demux_stream from all the code, except
inside of demux.c. Make it completely private to demux.c.
This simplifies the code because it removes an extra concept. In demux.c
it is reduced to a simple packet queue. There were other uses of
demux_stream, but they were removed or are removed with this commit.
Remove the extra "ds" argument to demux fill_buffer callback. It was
used by demux_avi and the TV pseudo-demuxer only.
Remove usage of d_video->last_pts from the no-correct-pts code. This
field contains the last PTS retrieved after a packet that is not NOPTS.
We can easily get this value manually because we read the packets
ourselves. Reuse sh_video->last_pts to store the packet PTS values. It
was used only by the correct-pts code before, and like d_video->last_pts,
it is reset on seek. The behavior should be exactly the same.
These separate arrays were used by the old demuxers and are not needed
anymore. We can simplify track switching as well.
One interesting thing is that stream/tv.c (which is a demuxer) won't
respect --no-audio anymore. It will probably work as expected, but it
will still open an audio device etc. - this is because track selection
is now always done with the runtime track switching mechanism. Maybe
the TV code could be updated to do proper runtime switching, but I
can't test this stuff.
Seems like a completely unnecessary complication. Instead, always add a
1 byte padding (could be extended if a caller needs it), and clear it.
Also add some documentation. There was some, but it was outdated and
incomplete.
Doing 'mpv mf://*' in a file with directories would crash, because even
though directories are skipped, the corresponding file entry is just
left at NULL, leading to a segfault on access. So explicitly skip NULL
entries.
The percent position is used for the OSD, the status line, and for the
OSD bar (shown on seeks). By default, the PTS of the last demuxed packet
was used to calculate it. This led to a "jumpy" display when the
percentage value (casted to int) was changing. The reasons for this were
the presence of video frame reordering (packet PTS is not monotonic), or
getting PTS values from different streams (like audio/subs).
Since these rely on PTS values and correct file durations anyway,
simplify it by calculating it with the current playback position in
mplayer.c instead.
And support the PIX_FMT_MONOWHITE pixel format. (This is really weird:
unlike PIX_FMT_MONOBLACK, it uses white pixels. I have no idea why
libavcodec doesn't just convert the pixel format on the fly, instead of
bothering everyone with really special pixel formats.)
Enable autoprobing for demux_mf, so that image files can be directly
displayed with e.g. "mpv file.jpg --pause". (The --pause switch is
needed to prevent the window from closing immediately.)
Since demux_mf doesn't have any real file format probing and goes by
file extension only, move the demuxer down the demuxer list to ensure
it's checked last. (ffmpeg's demux_mf equivalent, "image2", probes by
file extensions too, and there doesn't seem to be anything that can
probe typical image file formats from binary data.)
Remove the --mf "w" and "h" suboptions. Don't pass the width/height to
the video stream header. Both of these are useless, because the decoder
reads the real image size at a later point from the file headers.
Remove setting the BITMAPINFOHEADER as well, as vd_lavc doesn't need
this.
Enable --correct-pts by default. This fixes displaying a single image
with vo_vdpau (as mentioned by uau).
Keep around a pointer to the sh_video stream header instead of
accessing demuxer->video->sh_video. Fixes a crash when deselecting the
video track.
Note that the format probing is incorrect when opening images from HTTP
locations. File extensions don't have to match the actual file format.
A correct implementation would require to check the MIME type, or to
probe the binary data correctly.
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.
