Some files used during build are generated with Python scripts in
TOOLS/. Before, the generated files were included in the git tree.
Start creating them at build time. This introduces a build-dependency
on python3.
The files in question are:
libvo/vdpau_template.c
libmpdemux/ebml_types.h
libmpdemux/ebml_defs.c
Add definitions for DisplayUnit, OutputSamplingFrequency and
FileDescription in matroska.py. Regenerate the C template files to
allow using all current definitions in code.
When using the script to parse a Matroska file, the script used to
exit with an exception at EOF. Change it to exit quietly instead if
the file was parsed successfully. Keep showing an exception if EOF is
encountered in the middle of an element (truncated file).
Add a new EBML parser implementation that should allow significant
improvements to the Matroska demuxer. The new parsing code is not
actually used yet by the demuxer. The only changes to existing code in
this commit are to generate the MATROSKA_ID_* / EBML_ID_* macro
definitions from the new implementation and to rename some of them
(the new implementation uses names matching the official Matroska spec).
The main parser implementation is added in ebml.c. There are two new
generated files, ebml_defs.c and ebml_types.h, that contain
definitions of EBML elements. Those are generated by the new script
TOOLS/matroska.py. There's a new Makefile target "generated_ebml" that
run the script to refresh the content of the generated files.
