It was "by design" possible to make mpv crash if the parameters didn't
make enough sense, like "format=rgb24:yuv420p". While forcing the format
has some minor (rather questionable) use for debugging, allowing it to
crash is just stupid.
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.
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.
This adds an "auto" choice to the concurrent-frames suboption, and makes
it the default.
I'm not so sure about making this the default, though. It could lead to
excessive buffering with large CPU counts. But we'll see.
This is basically a hack; but apparently a needed one, since many
vapoursynth filters insist on having a FPS set.
We need to apply the FPS override before creating the filters. Also
change some terminal output related to the FPS value.
This is an ancient filter, and we assume it's not useful anymore.
If you really want this, it's still available in libavfilter (e.g. via
--vf=lavfi=[pp...]). The disadvantage is that mpv doesn't pass through
QP information to libavfilter. (This was probably the reason vf_pp still
was part of mpv - it was slightly easier to pass QP internally.)
