Now --ass-use-margins doesn't apply to normal subtitles anymore. This is
probably the inverse from the mpv behavior users expected so far, and
thus a breaking change, so rename the option, that the user at least has
a chance to lookup the option and decide whether the new behavior is
wanted or not.
The basic idea here is:
- plain text subtitles should have a certain useful defalt behavior,
like actually using margins
- ASS subtitles should never be broken by default
- ASS subtitles should look and behave like plaintext subtitles if
the --ass-style-override=force option is used
This also subtly changes --sub-scale-with-window and adds the --ass-
scale-with-window option. Since this one isn't so important, don't
bother with compatibility.
You can set in which "corner" the OSD and subtitles are shown. I'd
prefer it a bit more general (so you could set the alignment using
a factor), but the libass API does not provide this.
Requested. See manpage additions.
This also makes the magical loop_times constants slightly saner, but
shouldn't change the semantics of any existing --loop option values.
Not very important for the command line player; but GUI applications
will want to know about this.
This only adds the internal API; support for specific audio outputs
comes later.
This reuses the ao struct as context for the hotplug event listener,
similar to how the "old" device listing API did. This is probably a bit
unclean and confusing. One argument got reusing it is that otherwise
rewriting parts of ao_pulse would be required (because the PulseAudio
API requires so damn much boilerplate). Another is that --ao-defaults is
applied to the hotplug dummy ao struct, which automatically applies such
defaults even to the hotplug context.
Notification works through the property observation mechanism in the
client API. The notification chain is a bit complicated: the AO notifies
the player, which in turn notifies the clients, which in turn will
actually retrieve the device list. (It still has the advantage that it's
slightly cleaner, since the AO stuff doesn't need to know about client
API issues.)
The weird handling of atomic flags in ao.c is because we still don't
require real atomics from the compiler. Otherwise we'd just use atomic
bitwise operations.
In my opinion the artifacts created by af_scaletempo on extreme slowdown
(50% or so) are too bothersome - but users disagree. So use
af_scaletempo on any speed changes, not just on speedup.
librubberband exports a big load of options. Normally, the default
settings (whether they're librubberband defaults or our defaults) should
be sufficient, but since I'm not so sure about this, making it
configurable allows others to figure it out for me.
If "--af=rubberband" is used, librubberband will be used to speed up or
slow down audio with pitch correction.
This still has some problems: the audio delay is not calculated
correctly, so the audio position jitters around by a few milliseconds.
This will probably ruin video timing.
This reverts commit a33b46194c.
It turns out FFmpeg really considers this a bug, and fixed it by making
the decoder output the correct pixel format.
Fixes#1565. Reverts the fix#1528, though it should work fine with
a recent git master FFmpeg.
Make it accept "," as separator, instead of only ":". Do this by using
the key-value-list parser. Before this, the option was stored as a
string, with the option parser verifying that the option value as
correct. Now it's stored pre-parsed, although the log levels still
require separate verification and parsing-on-use to some degree (which
is why the msg-level option type doesn't go away).
Because the internal type changes, the client API "native" type also
changes. This could be prevented with some more effort, but I don't
think it's worth it - if MPV_FORMAT_STRING is used, it still works the
same, just with a different separator on read accesses.
This introduces a new option linear-scaling, which is now implied by
srgb, icc-profile and sigmoid-upscaling.
Notably, this means (sigmoidized) linear upscaling is now enabled by
default in opengl-hq mode. The impact should be negligible, and there
has been no observation of negative side effects of sigmoidized scaling,
so it feels safe to do so.
Autoload external audio files only if there's at least a video track
(which is not coverart pseudo-video).
Enable external audio file autoloading by default. Now that we actively
avoid doing stupid things like loading an external audio file for an
audio-only file, this should be fine.
Additionally, don't autoload subtitles if a subtitle is played.
Although you currently can't play subtitles without audio or video,
it's disturbing and stupid that the player might load subtitle files
with different extension and then fail.
Giving this such a prominent place is not really appropriate anymore.
Most people seeing this would probably expect a release changelog, not
something about MPlayer.
Since the page still could be useful for former MPlayer users (in
particular to avoid confusion with renamed options etc.), still keep
it in the DOCS directory.
This shouldn't exist and for the most part is meant to be used by the
ytdl Lua script, but let's document it anyway. Since the Lua API handles
all the details, it's considered much more "stable" than the raw API,
which is why the raw API wasn't documented.
In ancient times, this was needed because it was not default, and many
VOs had problems with it. But it was always default in mpv, and all VOs
are required to deal with it. Also, running --fixed-vo=no is not useful
and just creates weird corner cases. Get rid of it.
Comment explains why I have been so doubtful at adding this. The Apple docs
say CGDisplayModeGetRefreshRate is supposed to work only for CRTs, but it
doesn't, and actually works for LCD TVs connected over HDMI and external
displays (at least that's what I'm told, I don't have the hardware to test).
Maybe Apple docs are incorrect.
Since AFAIK Apple doesn't want to give us a better API – maybe in the fear we
might be able to actually write some useful software instead of "apps" –
I decided not to care as well and commit this.
This reverts the default behavior introduced in commit 93feffad. Way too
often libavcodec will return RGB data that has an alpha channel as per
pixel format, but actually contains garbage.
On the other hand, this will actually render garbage color values in
e.g. PNG files (for pixels with alpha==0, the color value should be
essentially ignored, which is what the old alpha blend mode did).
This "fixes" #1528, which is probably a decoder bug (or far less likely,
a broken file).
Make the lazy gamma initialization less weird, and make the default
value of the "gamma" sub-option 1.0. This means --vo=opengl:help will
list the actual default value.
Also change the lower bound to 0.1 - avoids a division by zero (I don't
know how shaders handle NaN, but it's probably not a good idea to give
them this value).
These commands are counterparts of sub_add/sub_remove/sub_reload which
work for external audio file.

(minor simplification)
These were derived from dividing our assumed video gamut (1.961) by some
typical screen values (2.2 for dimly lit and 2.4 for pitch black):
1.961/2.4 = 0.8170833333333334 ~= 0.8
1.961/2.2 = 0.8913636363636364 ~= 0.9
This is somewhat imperfect, because detection of hw decoding APIs is
mostly done on demand, and often avoided if not necessary. (For example,
we know very well that there are no hw decoders for certain codecs.)
This also requires every hwdec backend to identify itself (see hwdec.h
changes).
This does what it's documented to do.
The implementation reuses the code in mpv_detach_destroy(). Due to the
way async requests currently work, just sending a synchronous dummy
request (like a "ignore" command) would be enough to ensure
synchronization, but this code will continue to work even if this
changes.
The line "ctx->event_mask = 0;" is removed, but it shouldn't be needed.
(If a client is somehow very slow to terminate, this could silence an
annoying queue overflow message, but all in all it does nothing.)
Calling mpv_wait_async_requests() and mpv_wait_event() concurrently is
in theory allowed, so change pthread_cond_signal() to
pthread_cond_broadcast() to avoid missed wakeups.
As requested in issue #1542.
This was apparently useful for correct interlaced scaling (although I
don't know anyone who used this). It was rarely used (if at all), had an
inconvenient output format (packed YUV), and now has a better solution
in libavfilter (using the libavfilter "scale" filter via vf_lavfi).
There is no reason to keep this filter any longer.
It's entirely useless. I left it in for a while, because the analog TV
code had a transitional bug that could switch chroma planes, but it was
fixed long ago. It's also available in libavfilter.
If a file is unseekable (consider e.g. a http server without resume
functionality), but the stream cache is active, the player will enable
seeking anyway. Until know, client API user couldn't know that this
happens, and it has implications on how well seeking will work. So add a
property which exports whether this situation applies.
Fixes#1522.
This allows getting the log at all with --no-terminal and without having
to retrieve log messages manually with the client API. The log level is
hardcoded to -v. A higher log level would lead to too much log output
(huge file sizes and latency issues due to waiting on the disk), and
isn't too useful in general anyway. For debugging, the terminal can be
used instead.
The previous default ("no") seemed to be equivalent to "min" in practice
(though it might depend on the website, which is even worse).
Better just select the best stream by default.
This queries the _ICC_PROFILE property on the root window. It also tries
to reload the ICC when it changes, or if the mpv window changes the
monitor. (If multiple monitors are covered, mpv will randomly select one
of them.)
The official spec is a dead link on freedesktop.org, so don't blame me
for any bugs.
Note that this assumes that Xinerama screen numbers match the way mpv
enumerates the xrandr monitors. Although there is some chance that this
matches, it most likely doesn't, and we actually have to do complicated
things to map the screen numbers. If it turns out that this is required,
I will fix it as soon as someone with a suitable setup for testing the
fix reports it.
Seems like several people agree that it's a good filter for downscaling.
Setting this option by default may also prevent people from accidentally
using an unsuitable filter for downscaling by setting "scale" and
without being aware of the impliciations (maybe). On the other hand,
this change is not strictly backwards compatible for the same reasons.
Also, allow disabling this option with scale-down="" (before this, not
setting it was the only way to do this - not possible anymore if it's
set by default). This is what the change in handle_scaler_opt() does.
New command `mouse <x> <y> [<button> [single|double]]` is introduced.
This will update mouse position with given coordinate (`<x>`, `<y>`),
and additionally, send single-click or double-click event if `<button>`
is given.
vo.c queried the VO at initialization whether it wants to be updated on
every display frame, or every video frame. If the smoothmotion option
was changed at runtime, the rendering mode in vo.c wasn't updated.
Just let vo_opengl set the mode directly. Abuse the existing
vo_set_flip_queue_offset() function for this.
Also add a comment suggesting the use of --display-fps to the manpage,
which doesn't have anything to do with the rest of this commit, but is
important to make smoothmotion run well.
