Basically, reimplement --msglevel. Instead of making the new msg code
use the legacy code, make the legacy code use the reimplemented
functionality.
The handling of the deprecated --identify switch changes. It temporarily
stops working; this will be fixed in later commits.
The actual sub-options syntax (like --msglevel-vo=...) goes away, but I
bet nobody knew about this or used this anyway.
Remove these because I'm too lazy to convert them to proper
STREAM_CTRLs. Considering that probably nobody uses radio://, caring
about this is a complete waste of time. I will add these commands back
if someone asks for them, but I don't expect this to happen.
"-" could skip optional arguments. I think this was a pretty bad idea,
because it introduced a weird special case.
I'll remove the special syntax, but keep compatibility for the "seek"
and "screenshot" commands.
Add the mp_get_user_path() function, and make it expand special path
prefixes. Use it for some things in mpv which take filenames
(--input-config, --screenshot-template, opengl icc-profile suboption).
This allows accessing files in the mpv config dir without hardcoding the
config path by prefixing the path with ~~/. Details see manpage
additions.
Use the scaled video size (i.e. as shown on the window) as reference for
zoom. This is the easiest way to fix different width/height scale
factors as they happen when zooming video with a pixel aspect ratio
other than 1:1.
Also fix the unscaled mode, so that it 1. doesn't scale even with
--video-zoom, and 2. doesn't scale by small amounts when the video is
cropped by making the window smaller than the video.
The --flip option flipped the image upside-down, by trying to use VO
support, or if not available, by inserting a video filter. I'm not sure
why it existed. Maybe it was important in ancient times when VfW based
decoders output an image this way (but even then, flipping an image is a
free operation by negating the stride).
One nice thing about this is that it provided a possible path for
implementing video orientation, which is a feature we should probably
support eventually. The important part is that it would be for free for
VOs that support it, and would work even with hardware decoding.
But for now get rid of it. It's useless, trivial, stands in the way, and
supporting video orientation would require solving other problems first.
In particular, this disables mpeg4. There are some files out there that
use GMC, a usually rarely used and ineffective feature, which is not
supported by most hardware decoders. In these cases the hw decoder
outputs garbage, while software decoding works perfectly fine. We can't
really fallback to software decoding in these cases, because we don't
know that something is wrong in the first place. I can't see any
advantages of hw decoding of mpeg4, so it's better to disable it.
Apparently this stopped working after some planar changes (broken format
negotiation). Radically change option parsing in an incompatible way.
Suggest alternatives to this filter, since it barely has any importance
anymore.
Don't bother explaining the sample format naming schema. The "ne" bit is
outdated anyway, and anyone who has to use this option will be able to
understand the naming schema just by looking at the names too.
vf_stereo3d now uses vf_lavfi, if mpv was compiled with libavfilter.
vf_swapuv is hereby undeprecated. It's too trivial to wrap it with
libavfilter, and it's also too useless that even typing this commit
message is not really worth the time to spend on it.
Just in case someone expects these are unchanged just because they're
not mentioned in changes.rst anywhere. Documenting all of these changes
would be too much work and not helpful either.
Mostly backwards compatible, we don't change much because we just want
to get rid of the legacy option string handling.
You can't pass an aspect as first argument anymore.
Apparently you can get this with: stereo3d=ab[2]{l,r}:sbs[2]{l,r}
So it seems the filter is redundant and can be removed.
Also see FFmpeg commit 2f11aa141a01.
Unfortunately, this forces filtering both luma and chroma, because
otherwise we'd have to deal with libavfilter's vf_noise weird handling
of YUV vs. RGB formats. Would we e.g. filter luma only, it would filter
red in RGB mode only, because it goes by component and there's no way to
distinguish YUV and RGB by just using the filter's options.
Also remove the ability to disable deinterlacing at runtime. You can
still disable deinterlacing at runtime by using the ``D`` key and its
automatical filter insertion/removal.
This will allow old filter to run libavfilter instead by calling
vf_lw_set_graph(), which turns the filter into a wrapper, using a given
libavfilter graph.
Later commits use that to automatically "reroute" a bunch of filters to
libavfilter. We want to get rid of the old MPlayer filter code, because
it's bad an unmaintained, but we still don't want to force everyone to
use vf_lavfi, so this solution will do for a while.
mpv was hardcoded to always consider the right Alt key as Alt Gr, but there
are parituclar combinations of platforms and keyboard layouts where it's more
convenient to treat the right Alt as a keyboard modifier just like the left
one.
Fixes#388
This allows vo_opengl to use GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE textures, either by
enabling it with the 'rectangle-textures' sub-option, or by having a
hwdec backend force it. By default it's off.
The _only_ reason we're adding this is because VDA can export rectangle
textures only.
There are some use cases for this. For example, you can use it to set
defaults of automatically inserted filters (like af_lavrresample). It's
also useful if you have a non-trivial VO configuration, and want to use
--vo to quickly change between the drivers without repeating the whole
configuration in the --vo argument.
See the changes in input.rst for explanations.
Technically speaking, this also gets rid of some undefined behavior:
passing NULL as a vararg (execl()) is always a bug.
This partially reverts commit 7d152965. It turns out that at least some
ALSA drivers (at least snd-hda-intel) report incorrect audio delay with
non-native sample rates, even if the sample rate is only very slightly
different from the native one.
For example, 48000Hz is fine on my hda-intel system, while both 8000Hz
and 47999Hz lead to a delay off by 40ms (according to mpv's A/V
difference display), which suggests that something in ALSA is
calculating the delay using the wrong sample rate.
As an additional problem, with ALSA resampling enabled, using
48001Hz/float/2ch fails, while 49000Hz/float/2ch or 48001Hz/s16/2ch
work. With resampling disabled, all these cases work obviously, because
our own resampler doesn't just refuse any of these formats.
Since some people want to use the ALSA resampler (because it's highly
configurable, supports multiple backends, etc.), we still allow enabling
ALSA resampling with an ao_alsa suboption.
