This was broken in e0250b9604. In some cases, device creation will
succeed, but creating an EGL context on the device will fail. With
--angle-renderer=auto, it should try to create the context again on a
D3D9 device.
This fixes mpv in Windows Vista on VirtualBox for me.
This is pretty trivial, but also quite annoying due to details like
mismatching eglGetProcAddress() function signature (most callers just
cast the function pointer), and ARM/Linux hacks. So move them all to one
place.
DXGI_SWAP_EFFECT_FLIP_SEQUENTIAL might be buggy on some hardware.
Additionaly DXGI_SWAP_EFFECT_FLIP_SEQUENTIAL might be supported on some
Windows 7 systems with the platform update, but it might have poor
performance. In these cases, the user might want to disable the use of
DXGI_SWAP_EFFECT_FLIP_SEQUENTIAL swap chains with --angle-flip=no.
This replaces the old backend that exclusively used EGL windowing with
one that can also use ANGLE's ability to render to directly to a
texture. The advantage of this is that it allows mpv to create the swap
chain itself and this allows mpv to use a flip-mode swap chain on a HWND
(which avoids problems with DirectComposition) and to use a longer swap
chain that has six backbuffers by default (which reportedly fixes
problems with rendering 24fps video on 24Hz monitors.)
Also, "screenshot window" should now work on DXGI 1.2 and up (Windows 8
and up.)
vo_opengl used to have it as sub-option, which made it very hard to pass
down option values to backends in a generic way (even if these options
were completely backend-specific). For --opengl-dcomposition we used a
VOFLAG to deal with this. Fortunately, sub-options are gone, and we can
just add it as global option.
Move the option to context_angle.c and add it as global option. I
thought about adding a mechanism to let backends declare options, which
would get magically picked up my m_config instead of having to add them
to the global option list manually (similar to VO vo_driver.options),
but decided against this complexity just for 1 or 2 backends. Likewise,
it could have been added as a single option to avoid the boilerplate of
an option struct, but then again there are probably going to be more
angle suboptions, and it's cleaner.
We always want to use __declspec(selectany) to declare GUIDs, but
manually including <initguid.h> in every file that used GUIDs was
error-prone. Since all <initguid.h> does is define INITGUID and include
<guiddef.h>, we can remove all references to <initguid.h> and just
compile with -DINITGUID to get the same effect.
Also, this partially reverts 622bcb0 by re-adding libuuid.a to the
build, since apparently some GUIDs (such as GUID_NULL) are not declared
in the source file, even when INITGUID is set.
This should get mpv working on Windows 7 machines without hardware
accelerated graphics adapters. It already worked on Windows 8 and up
because those systems would silently fall back to WARP if there was no
graphics hardware installed.
The normal MPGL_CAP_SW flag is not set, so unlike other opengl backends,
this will choose a software adapter even if opengl:sw is not specified.
The reason for this is, unlike on Linux, where vo_xv and vo_x11 can be
used, mpv on Windows does not have any VO to fall back on when hardware
acceleration isn't available, so if software adapters are rejected, the
user won't see any video output when using the default settings. WARP
seems to perform quite well, so it should be used in this case.
This uses eglPostSubBufferNV to trigger ANGLE to check the window size
and update the size of the swapchain to match, which is recommended
here: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/angleproject/RvyVkjRCQGU/gfKfT64IAgAJ
With the D3D11 backend, using eglPostSubBufferNV with a 0-sized update
region will even skip the Present() call, meaning it won't block for a
vsync period. Hopefully ANGLE will have a less hacky way of doing this
in future. See the relevant ANGLE issue: http://anglebug.com/1438Fixes#3301
When ANGLE is using D3D11 and not running in DirectComposition mode,
DXGI will hook the video window's message loop and override Alt+Enter to
trigger a transition to exclusive fullscreen mode (which doesn't even
work with mpv's renderer for some reason.) This behaviour can be
disabled by getting a pointer to the IDXGIFactory associated with the
D3D11 device and calling MakeWindowAssociation with the appropriate
flags.
This avoids a copy of the video image and lowers vsync jitter. Since
there are now two options to add to the window_attribs list, it has been
made dynamic.
ANGLE is _really_ annoying to build. (Requires special toolchain and a
recent MSVC version.) This results in various issues with people
having trouble to build mpv against ANGLE (apparently linking it
against a prebuilt binary doesn't count, or using binaries from
potentially untrusted sources is not wanted).
Dynamically loading ANGLE is going to be a huge convenience. This commit
implements this, with special focus on keeping it source compatible to
a normal build with ANGLE linked at build-time.
It forces es2 mode on ANGLE. Only useful for testing. Since the normal
"angle" backend already falls back to es2 if es3 does not work, this new
backend always exit when autoprobing it.
In order to honor the differences between OpenGL and Direct3D coordinate
systems, ANGLE uses a full FBO copy merely to flip the final frame
vertically. This can be avoided with the EGL_ANGLE_surface_orientation
extension.
I hope that this does what we expect it does: destroy the EGLDisplay
specific to our HDC. (Some implementations will terminate all EGL
contexts in the whole process.)
eglReleaseThread() merely calls eglMakeCurrent(0, 0, 0, 0), which is
not enough.
This commit also fixes the problem fixed with the previous commit,
but I think both changes are needed to make our API usage clean.
Do this to make the license situation less confusing.
This change should be of no consequence, since LGPL is compatible with
GPL anyway, and making it LGPL-only does not restrict the use with GPL
code.
Additionally, the wording implies that this is allowed, and that we can
just remove the GPL part.
