Remove the colorspace-related top-level options, add them to vf_format.
They are rather obscure and not needed often, so it's better to get them
out of the way. In particular, this gets rid of the semi-complicated
logic in command.c (most of which was needed for OSD display and the
direct feedback from the VO). It removes the duplicated color-related
name mappings.
This removes the ability to write the colormatrix and related
properties. Since filters can be changed at runtime, there's no loss of
functionality, except that you can't cycle automatically through the
color constants anymore (but who needs to do this).
This also changes the type of the mp_csp_names and related variables, so
they can directly be used with OPT_CHOICE. This probably ended up a bit
awkward, for the sake of not adding a new option type which would have
used the previous format.
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.
This requires FFmpeg git master for accelerated hardware decoding.
Keep in mind that FFmpeg must be compiled with --enable-mmal. Libav
will also work.
Most things work. Screenshots don't work with accelerated/opaque
decoding (except using full window screenshot mode). Subtitles are
very slow - even simple but huge overlays can cause frame drops.
This always uses fullscreen mode. It uses dispmanx and mmal directly,
and there are no window managers or anything on this level.
vo_opengl also kind of works, but is pretty useless and slow. It can't
use opaque hardware decoding (copy back can be used by forcing the
option --vd=lavc:h264_mmal). Keep in mind that the dispmanx backend
is preferred over the X11 ones in case you're trying on X11; but X11
is even more useless on RPI.
This doesn't correctly reject extended h264 profiles and thus doesn't
fallback to software decoding. The hw supports only up to the high
profile, and will e.g. return garbage for Hi10P video.
This sets a precedent of enabling hw decoding by default, but only
if RPI support is compiled (which most hopefully it will be disabled
on desktop Linux platforms). While it's more or less required to use
hw decoding on the weak RPI, it causes more problems than it solves
on real platforms (Linux has the Intel GPU problem, OSX still has
some cases with broken decoding.) So I can live with this compromise
of having different defaults depending on the platform.
Raspberry Pi 2 is required. This wasn't tested on the original RPI,
though at least decoding itself seems to work (but full playback was
not tested).
This has a number of user-visible changes:
1. A new flag blend-subtitles (default on for opengl-hq) to control this
behavior.
2. The OSD itself will not be color managed or affected by
gamma controls. To get subtitle CMS/gamma, blend-subtitles must be
used.
3. When enabled, this will make subtitles be cleanly interpolated by
:interpolation, and also dithered etc. (just like the normal output).

Bilinear scaling is not a suitable default for something named "hq"; the
whole reason this was done in the past was because cscale used to be
obscenely slow. This is no longer the case, with cscale being nearly
free.
Why did this exist in the first place? Other than being completely
useless, this even caused some regressions in the past. For example,
there was the case of a laptop exposing its accelerometer as joystick
device, which led to extremely fun things due to the default mappings of
axis movement being mapped to seeking.
I suppose those who really want to use their joystick to control a media
player (???) can configure it as mouse device or so.
This replaces the old smoothmotion code by a more flexible tscale
option, which essentially allows any scaler to be used for interpolating
frames. (The actual "smoothmotion" scaler which behaves identical to the
old code does not currently exist, but it will be re-added in a later commit)
The only odd thing is that larger filters require a larger queue size
offset, which is currently set dynamically as it introduces some issues
when pausing or framestepping. Filters with a lower radius are not
affected as much, so this is identical to the old smoothmotion if the
smoothmotion interpolator is used.
I think this is what I alwass missed ever since I found the MPlayer
cache options: a way to enable the cache on local files with the default
settings, whatever they are.
Requested change in behavior.
Note that we set the assumed "infinite" display_fps to 1e6, which
conveniently lets vo_get_vsync_interval() return a dummy value of 1,
which can be easily checked against, and still avoids doing math with
float INFs.
This adds stuff related to gamma, linear light, sigmoid, BT.2020-CL,
etc, as well as color management. Also adds a new gamma function (gamma22).
This adds new parameters to configure the CMS settings, in particular
letting us target simple colorspaces without requiring usage of a 3DLUT.
This adds smoothmotion. Mostly working, but it's still sensitive to
timing issues. It's based on an actual queue now, but the queue size
is kept small to avoid larger amounts of latency.
Also makes “upscale before blending” the default strategy.
This is justified because the "render after blending" thing doesn't seme
to work consistently any way (introduces stutter due to the way vsync
timing works, or something), so this behavior is a bit closer to master
and makes pausing/unpausing less weird/jumpy.
This adds the remaining scalers, including bicubic_fast, sharpen3,
sharpen5, polar filters and antiringing. Apparently, sharpen3/5 also
consult scale-param1, which was undocumented in master.
This also implements cropping and chroma transformation, plus
rotation/flipping. These are inherently part of the same logic, although
it's a bit rough around the edges in some case, mainly due to the fallback
code paths (for bilinear scaling without indirection).
Move the command line parsing and some other things to the common init
routine shared between command line player and client API. This means
they're using almost exactly the same code now.
The main intended side effect is that the client API will load mpv.conf;
though still only if config loading is enabled.
(The cplayer still avoids creating an extra thread, passes a command
line, and prints an exit status to the terminal. It also has some
different defaults.)
This gets rid of the need for a second (or more) parameters; instead it
can be all in one parameter. The (now) redundant parameter is still
parsed for compatibility, though.
The way the flags make each other conflict is a bit tricky: they have
overlapping bits, and the option parser disallows setting already set
bits.
This automatically sets the gamma option depending on lighting conditions
measured from the computer's ambient light sensor.
sRGB – arguably the “sibling” to BT.709 for still images – has a reference
viewing environment defined in its specification (IEC 61966-2-1:1999, see
http://www.color.org/chardata/rgb/srgb.xalter). According to this data, the
assumed ambient illuminance is 64 lux. This is the illuminance where the gamma
that results from ICC color management is correct.
On the other hand, BT.1886 formalizes that the gamma level for dim environments
to be 2.40, and Apple resources (WWDC12: 2012 Session 523: Best practices for
color management) define the BT.1886 dim at 16 lux.
So the logic we apply is:
* >= 64lux -> 1.961 gamma
* =< 16lux -> 2.400 gamma
* 16lux < x < 64lux -> logaritmic rescale of lux to gamma. The human
perception of illuminance roughly follows a logaritmic scale of lux [1].
