This will probably make it slower. But since I don't care about
vo_vaapi, that's perfectly OK. It serves mostly as a test for the
previous commit. In addition, this code was pretty bad (custom broken
scaling and not-blending that probably broke in some situation). If that
wasn't enough, some vaapi drivers also provide only a single overlay at
a time, while this code required a bunch.
There also seems to be a Mesa bug: the overlay gets stretched when
src_x/y was not 0. Or maybe I misunderstood how this is supposed to
work. A bug is probably more likely? Nobody cares about this API.
Change all OPT_* macros such that they don't define the entire m_option
initializer, and instead expand only to a part of it, which sets certain
fields. This requires changing almost every option declaration, because
they all use these macros. A declaration now always starts with
{"name", ...
followed by designated initializers only (possibly wrapped in macros).
The OPT_* macros now initialize the .offset and .type fields only,
sometimes also .priv and others.
I think this change makes the option macros less tricky. The old code
had to stuff everything into macro arguments (and attempted to allow
setting arbitrary fields by letting the user pass designated
initializers in the vararg parts). Some of this was made messy due to
C99 and C11 not allowing 0-sized varargs with ',' removal. It's also
possible that this change is pointless, other than cosmetic preferences.
Not too happy about some things. For example, the OPT_CHOICE()
indentation I applied looks a bit ugly.
Much of this change was done with regex search&replace, but some places
required manual editing. In particular, code in "obscure" areas (which I
didn't include in compilation) might be broken now.
In wayland_common.c the author of some option declarations confused the
flags parameter with the default value (though the default value was
also properly set below). I fixed this with this change.
Remove the max_count creation parameter, because it's pointless and
rarely ever did anything. Add a talloc parent parameter instead (which
is something completely different, but convenient, and all callers needs
to be changed anyway).
Instead of clearing the pool when the now removed maximum is reached,
clear it on image parameter changes instead.
Done for license reasons. vo_vaapi.c is turned into some kind of
dumpster fire, and we'll remove it as soon as I'm mentally ready for
unkind users to complain about removal of this old POS.
I really wouldn't care much about this, but some parts of the core code
are under HAVE_GPL, so there's some need to get rid of it. Simply turn
the video equalizer from its current fine-grained handling with vf/vo
fallbacks into global options. This makes updating them much simpler.
This removes any possibility of applying video equalizers in filters,
which affects vf_scale, and the previously removed vf_eq. Not a big
loss, since the preferred VOs have this builtin.
Remove video equalizer handling from vo_direct3d, vo_sdl, vo_vaapi, and
vo_xv. I'm not going to waste my time on these legacy VOs.
vo.eq_opts_cache exists _only_ to send a VOCTRL_SET_EQUALIZER, which
exists _only_ to trigger a redraw. This seems silly, but for now I feel
like this is less of a pain. The rest of the equalizer using code is
self-updating.
See commit 96b906a51d for how some video equalizer code was GPL only.
Some command line option names and ranges can probably be traced back to
a GPL only committer, but we don't consider these copyrightable.
The lock was disabled recently. This commit gets rid of the dummied out
calls. The main reason for removing it is that there is no apparent need
for it anymore, and the new FFmpeg vaapi code does not use or provide
such a lock (there are some places which we cannot control and which do
vaapi API calls, like frame destructors).
Long planned. Leads to some sanity.
There still are some rather gross things. Especially g_groups is ugly,
and a hack that can hopefully be removed. (There is a plan for it, but
whether it's implemented depends on how much energy is left.)
It was used to determine whether the VO supports VOCTRL_SET_PANSCAN.
With all those changes to property semantics this became unnecessary,
and its only use was dropped at some point.
This has two reasons:
1. I tend to add new fields to this metadata, and every time I've done
so I've consistently forgotten to update all of the dozens of places in
which this colorimetry metadata might end up getting used. While most
usages don't really care about most of the metadata, sometimes the
intend was simply to “copy” the colorimetry metadata from one struct to
another. With this being inside a substruct, those lines of code can now
simply read a.color = b.color without having to care about added or
removed fields.
2. It makes the type definitions nicer for upcoming refactors.
In going through all of the usages, I also expanded a few where I felt
that omitting the “young” fields was a bug.
vo_vaapi is the only thing which can't scale RGBA on the GPU. (Other
cases of RGBA scaling are handled in draw_bmp.c for some reason.)
Move this code and get rid of the osd_conv_cache thing.
Functionally, nothing changes.
The main change is with video/hwdec.h. mp_hwdec_info is made opaque (and
renamed to mp_hwdec_devices). Its accessors are mainly thread-safe (or
documented where not), which makes the whole thing saner and cleaner. In
particular, thread-safety rules become less subtle and more obvious.
The new internal API makes it easier to support multiple OpenGL interop
backends. (Although this is not done yet, and it's not clear whether it
ever will.)
This also removes all the API-specific fields from mp_hwdec_ctx and
replaces them with a "ctx" field. For d3d in particular, we drop the
mp_d3d_ctx struct completely, and pass the interfaces directly.
Remove the emulation checks from vaapi.c and vdpau.c; they are
pointless, and the checks that matter are done on the VO layer.
The d3d hardware decoders might slightly change behavior: dxva2-copy
will not use the VO device anymore if the VO supports proper interop.
This pretty much assumes that any in such cases the VO will not use any
form of exclusive mode, which makes using the VO device in copy mode
unnecessary.
This is a big refactor. Some things may be untested and could be broken.
This parameter has been unused for years (the last flag was removed in
commit d658b115). Get rid of it.
This affects the general VO API, as well as the vo_opengl backend API,
so it touches a lot of files.
The VOFLAGs are still used to control OpenGL context creation, so move
them to the OpenGL backend code.
This gets rid of an old hack, VOFLAG_HIDDEN. Although handling of it has
been sane for a while, it used to cause much pain, and is still
unintuitive and weird even today.
The main reason for this hack is that OpenGL selects a X11 Visual for
you, and you're supposed to use this Visual when creating the X window
for the OpenGL context. Which means the X window can't be created early
in the common X11 init code, but the OpenGL code needs to do something
before that. API-wise you need separate functions for X11 init and X11
window creation. The VOFLAG_HIDDEN hack conflated window creation and
the entrypoint for resizing on video resolution change into one
function, vo_x11_config_vo_window(). This required all platform backends
to handle this flag, even if they didn't need this mechanism.
Wayland still uses this for minor reasons (alpha support?), so the
wayland backend must be changed before the flag can be entirely removed.
Drop libva versions below 0.34.0. These are ancient, so I don't care.
Drop the vo_vaapi deinterlacer as well. With 0.34.0, VPP is always
available, and deinterlacing is done with vf_vavpp.
The vaCreateSurfaces() function changes its signature - actually it did
in 0.34.0 or so, and the <va/va_compat.h> defined a macro to make it use
the old signature.
When using --hwdec=auto, about half of all systems will print:
"[vdpau] Error when calling vdp_device_create_x11: 1"
this happens because usually mpv will be linked against both vdpau and
vaapi libs, but the drivers are not necessarily available. Then trying
to load a driver will fail. This is a normal part of probing, but the
error messages were printed anyway. Silence them by explicitly
distinguishing probing.
This pretty much goes through all the layers. We actually consider
loading hw backends for vo_opengl always "auto probed", even if a hw
backend is explicitly requested. In this case vd_lavc will print a
warning message anyway (adjust this message a bit).
Rarely used and essentially useless. The only VO for which this was
implemented correctly and for which this did anything was vo_xv, but you
shouldn't use vo_xv anyway (plus it support BT.601 only, plus a vendor
specific extension for BT.709, whose presence this function essentially
reported - use xvinfo instead).
There's literally no reason why these functions have to be inline (they
might be performance critical, but then the function call overhead isn't
going to matter at all).
Uninline them and move them to mp_image.c. Drop the header file and fix
all uses of it.
There was a somewhat obscure optimization in the OSD and subtitle
rendering path: if only the position of the sub-images changed, and not
the actual image data, uploading of the image data could be skipped. In
theory, this could speed up things like scrolling subtitles.
But it turns out that even in the rare cases subtitles have such scrolls
or axis-aligned movement, modern libass rarely signals this kind of
change. Possibly this is because of sub-pixel handling and such, which
break this.
As such, it's a worthless optimization and just introduces additional
complexity and subtle bugs (especially in cases libass does the
opposite: incorrectly signaling a position change only, which happened
before). Remove this optimization, and rename bitmap_pos_id to
change_id.
The vaapi equalizer have a custom range, and can have a smaller range
than mpv's normalized video equalizer values. The result is that a vaapi
equalizer value can map to multiple mpv values, so changing a mpv value
by 1 can get "stuck". Fix by remember the mpv value, and returning it if
it still corresponds to the vaapi value.
Really fixes#1647.
(Why am I even bothering with this irredeemable crap?)
At the time screenshot support was added, images weren't refcounted yet,
so screenshots required specialized implementations in the VOs. But now
we can handle these things much simpler. Also see commit 5bb24980.
If there are VOs in the future which can't do this (e.g. they need to
write to the image passed to vo_driver->draw_image), this still could be
disabled on a per-VO basis etc., so we lose no potential performance
advantages.
Use different VOCTRLs for "window" and normal screenshot modes. The
normal one will probably be removed, and replaced by generic code in
vo.c, and this commit is preparation for this. (Doing it the other way
around would be slightly simpler, but I haven't decided yet about the
second one, and touching every VO is needed anyway in order to remove
the unneeded crap. E.g. has_osd has been unused for a long time.)
Instead of converting the hw surface to an image in the VO, provide a
generic way to convet hw surfaces, and use this in the screenshot code.
It's all relatively straightforward, except vdpau is being terrible. It
needs a huge chunk of new code, because copying back is not simple.
Before this commit, each hw backend had their own specific struct types
for context, and some, like VDA, had none at all. Add a context struct
(mp_hwdec_ctx) that provides a somewhat generic way to pass the hwdec
context around. Some things get slightly better, some slightly more
verbose.
mp_hwdec_info is still around; it's still needed, but is reduced to its
role of handling delayed loading of the hwdec backend.
And remove all uses of the VFCAP_CSP_SUPPORTED* constants. This is
supposed to reduce conversions if many filters are used (with many
incompatible pixel formats), and also for preferring the VO's natively
supported pixel formats (as opposed to conversion).
This is worthless by now. Not only do the main VOs not use software
conversion, but also the way vf_lavfi and libavfilter work mostly break
the way the old MPlayer mechanism worked. Other important filters like
vf_vapoursynth do not support "proper" format negotation either.
Part of this was already removed with the vf_scale cleanup from today.
While I'm touching every single VO, also fix the query_format argument
(it's not a FourCC anymore).
Add a generic mechanism to the VO to relay "extra" events from VO to
player. Use it to notify the core of window resizes, which in turn will
be used to mark all affected properties ("window-scale" in this case) as
changed.
(I refrained from hacking this as internal command into input_ctx, or to
poll the state change, etc. - but in the end, maybe it would be best to
actually pass the client API context directly to the places where events
can happen.)
So talking to a certain Intel dev, it sounded like modern VA-API drivers
are reasonable thread-safe. But apparently that is not the case. Not at
all. So add approximate locking around all vaapi API calls.
The problem appeared once we moved decoding and display to different
threads. That means the "vaapi-copy" mode was unaffected, but decoding
with vo_vaapi or vo_opengl lead to random crashes.
Untested on real Intel hardware. With the vdpau emulation, it seems to
work fine - but actually it worked fine even before this commit, because
vdpau was written and designed not by morons, but competent people
(vdpau is guaranteed to be fully thread-safe).
There is some probability that this commit doesn't fix things entirely.
One problem is that locking might not be complete. For one, libavcodec
_also_ accesses vaapi, so we have to rely on our own guesses how and
when lavc uses vaapi (since we disable multithreading when doing hw
decoding, our guess should be relatively good, but it's still a lavc
implementation detail). One other reason that this commit might not
help is Intel's amazing potential to fuckup anything that is good and
holy.
Until now, failure to allocate image data resulted in a crash (i.e.
abort() was called). This was intentional, because it's pretty silly to
degrade playback, and in almost all situations, the OOM will probably
kill you anyway. (And then there's the standard Linux overcommit
behavior, which also will kill you at some point.)
But I changed my opinion, so here we go. This change does not affect
_all_ memory allocations, just image data. Now in most failure cases,
the output will just be skipped. For video filters, this coincidentally
means that failure is treated as EOF (because the playback core assumes
EOF if nothing comes out of the video filter chain). In other
situations, output might be in some way degraded, like skipping frames,
not scaling OSD, and such.

Let the VOs draw the OSD on their own, instead of making OSD drawing a
separate VO driver call. Further, let it be the VOs responsibility to
request subtitles with the correct PTS. We also basically allow the VO
to request OSD/subtitles at any time.
OSX changes untested.
mpv supports two hardware decoding APIs on Linux: vdpau and vaapi. Each
of these has emulation wrappers. The wrappers are usually slower and
have fewer features than their native opposites. In particular the libva
vdpau driver is practically unmaintained.
Check the vendor string and print a warning if emulation is detected.
Checking vendor strings is a very stupid thing to do, but I find the
thought of people using an emulated API for no reason worse.
Also, make --hwdec=auto never use an API that is detected as emulated.
This doesn't work quite right yet, because once one API is loaded,
vo_opengl doesn't unload it, so no hardware decoding will be used if the
first probed API (usually vdpau) is rejected. But good enough.
Reduce most dependencies on struct mp_csp_details, which was a bad first
attempt at dealing with colorspace stuff. Instead, consistently use
mp_image_params.
Code which retrieves colorspace matrices from csputils.c still uses this
type, though.
It's not really needed to be public. Other code can just use mp_image.
The only disadvantage is that the other code needs to call an accessor
to get the VASurfaceID.
Although I at first thought it would be better to have a separate
implementation for hwaccels because the difference to software images
are too large, it turns out you can actually save some code with it.
Note that the old implementation had a small memory management bug. This
got painted over in commit 269c1e1, but is hereby solved properly.
Also note that I couldn't test vf_vavpp.c (due to lack of hardware), and
I hope I didn't accidentally break it.
