Instead of enabling it only when a stream-cache is enabled, also try to
enable it independently from that if the demuxer is marked as
is_network.
Also add some code to the EDL code, so EDLs containing network streams
are automatically cached this way.
Extend the OSD info line so that it shows the demuxer cache in this case
(more or less).
I didn't find where or whether options.rst describes how the demuxer
cache is enabled, so no changes there.
Was intended to show a "nice" message on edition switching. In practice,
the message was never visible. The OSD code checks whether a demuxer is
loaded, and if not, discards the message - meaning if the OSD code
happened to run before the demuxer was fully loaded, no message was
shown. This is apparently a regression due to extensions to the OSD and
the situations in which it can be used.
Remove the broken code since it's too annoying to fix. Instead, a
default property message will be shown, which is a bit uglier, but
actually not too unuseful.
This does 3 kinds of changes:
- change sleeptime=x to mp_set_timeout()
- change sleeptime=0 to mp_wakeup_core() calls (to be more explicit)
- change commands etc. to call mp_wakeup_core() if they do changes that
require the playloop to be rerun
This is preparation for the following changes. The goal is to process
client API requests without having to rerun the playloop every time. As
of this commit, the changes should not change behavior. In particular,
the playloop is still implicitly woken up on every command.
Normally, OSD can be disabled with --osd-level=0. But this also disables
terminal OSD, and some users want _only_ the terminal OSD. Add
--video-osd=no, which essentially disables the video OSD.
Ideally, it should probably be possible to control terminal and video
OSD levels independently, but that would require separate OSD timers
(and other state) for both components, so don't do it. But because the
current situation isn't too ideal, add a threat to the manpage that
might be changed in the future.
Fixes#3387.
If the status line is wider than the reported terminal size, then cut it
off instead of causing the terminal to scroll down for the next line.
This is done in the most primitive way possible, assuming ASCII.
This was actually done in the past as far as I'm aware; do it again.
(Probably differently.)
Of course we can't just skip updating the OSD if the playloop was woken
up for the purpose of removing OSD after an OSD timer expired.
Fixes e.g. OSD bars sometimes sticking along when seeking while paused.
Normally, OSD is updated every time the playloop is run. This has to be
done, because the OSD may implicitly reference various properties,
without knowing whether they really need to be updated or not. (There's
a property update mechanism, but it's mostly unavailable, because OSD is
special-cased and can not use the client API mechanism properly.)
Normally, these updates are no problem, because the OSD is only actually
printed when the OSD text actually changes.
But commit d23ffd24 added a rate-limiting mechanism, which tries to
limit OSD updates at most every 50ms (or the next video frame). Since it
can't know in advance whether the OSD is going to change or not, this
simply waked up the player every 50ms.
Change this so that the player is updated only as part of general
updates determined through mp_notify(). (This function also notifies the
client API of changed properties.) The desired result is that the player
will not wake up at all in normal idle mode, but still update properties
that can change when paused, such as the cache.
This is mostly a cosmetic change (in the sense of making runtime
behavior just slightly better). It has the slightly more negative
consequence that properties which update implicitly (such as "clock")
will not update periodically anymore.
Commit 382bafcb changed the behavior for ab-loop-a. This commit changes
ab-loop-b so that the behavior is symmetric.
Adjust the OSD rendering accordingly to the two changes.
Also fix mentions of the "ab_loop" command to the now preferred
"ab-loop".
Commit 57506b27 accidentally broke this. The status (including the
usually always active demuxer cache) should be shown only if the stream
cache is actually enabled.
Instead of having a separate for each, which also requires separate
additional caching in the demuxer. (The demuxer adds an indirection,
since STREAM_CTRLs are not thread-safe.)
Since this includes the cache speed, this should fix#3003.
No need to have them everywhere. The only exception/annoyance is
MAX_OSD_PARTS, which is now basically duplicated (and at runtime
initialization is checked with an assert()).
These changes don't make too much sense without context, but are
preparation for later. Then the audio_src/video_src fields will be
actually be NULL under circumstances.
Eventually we want the VO be driven by a A->V filter, so a decoder
doesn't even have to exist. Some features definitely require a decoder
though (like reporting the decoder in use, hardware decoding, etc.), so
for each thing which accessed d_video, it has to be redecided if and how
it can access decoder state.
At least the "framedrop" property slightly changes semantics: you can
now always set this property, even if no video is active.
Some untested changes in this commit, but our bio-based distributed
test suite has to take care of this.
This moves some code related to decoding from video.c to dec_video.c,
and also removes some accesses to dec_video.c from the filtering code.
dec_video.ch is starting to make sense, and simply returns video frames
from a demuxer stream. The API exposed is also somewhat intended to be
easily changeable to move decoding to a separate thread, if we ever want
this (due to libavcodec already being threaded, I don't see much of a
reason, but it might still be helpful).
Requested. Don't overwrite permanent OSD text set with e.g. --osd-msg1.
Instead, append the OSD message to it (on the next line).
Note that with --osd-msg1, seeking will still overwrite the OSD with the
playback status for a while. If you do not want this, use --osd-msg3
--osd-level=3 instead.
This was used with --no-sub-ass (aka --no-ass). This option (which is
not yet removed) strips all styling from the subtitles, and renders them
as plaintext only. For some reason, it originally seemed convenient to
reuse all the OSD text rendering code (osd_libass.c). While this was
indeed simple, it had a bad influence on the rest of the code. For
example, it had to decide whether to go through the OSD code path, or
the proper subtitle renderer in sd_ass.c.
Kill the OSD subtitle renderer. Reimplement --no-sub-ass and also
"secondary" subtitles in sd_ass.c. fill_plaintext() contains some rather
minor code duplication with osd_libass.c for setting up a dummy
ASS_Event and escaping the stripped text. Since sd_ass.c already has to
handle "normal" text subtitles, and has code for stripping ASS tags,
this remains all relatively simple.
Remove all the unnecessary crap from the rest of the code.
Most of this is explained in the DOCS additions.
This gives us slightly more sanity, because there is less interaction
between the various parts. The goal is getting rid of the video_offset
entirely.
The simplification extends to the user API. In particular, we don't need
to fix missing parts in the API, such as the lack for a seek command
that seeks relatively to the start time. All these things are now
transparent.
(If someone really wants to know the real timestamps/start time, new
properties would have to be added.)
This adds support for the progress indicator taskbar extension
that was introduced with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
I don’t like this solution because it keeps its own state and
introduces another VOCTRL, but I couldn’t come up with anything
less messy.
closes#2399
"Missed" implies the frame was dropped, but what really happens is that
the following frame will be shown later than intended (due to the
current frame skipping a vsync).
(As of this commit, this property is still inactive and always
returns 0. See git blame for details.)
Some mkv files can have this. The chapter times are still timestamps
(and thus not affected by the start time), but it misplaces the OSD
chapter ticks.
Let's hope this doesn't confuse client API users too much. It's still
the best solution to get rid of corner cases where it actually return
the wrong timestamp on start, and then suddenly jump.
If this mode is enabled, the player tries to strictly synchronize video
to display refresh. It will adjust playback speed to match the display,
so if you play 23.976 fps video on a 24 Hz screen, playback speed is
increased by approximately 1/1000. Audio wll be resampled to keep up
with playback.
This is different from the default sync mode, which will sync video to
audio, with the consequence that video might skip or repeat a frame once
in a while to make video keep up with audio.
This is still unpolished. There are some major problems as well; in
particular, mkv VFR files won't work well. The reason is that Matroska
is terrible and rounds timestamps to milliseconds. This makes it rather
hard to guess the framerate of a section of video that is playing. We
could probably fix this by just accepting jittery timestamps (instead
of explicitly disabling the sync code in this case), but I'm not ready
to accept such a solution yet.
Another issue is that we are extremely reliant on OS video and audio
APIs working in an expected manner, which of course is not too often
the case. Consequently, the new sync mode is a bit fragile.
Probably needs to be polished a bit more. Also, might require a key
binding that can set/clear the loop points in a more intuitive way.
For now, something like this can be put into input.conf to use it:
ctrl+y set ab-loop-a ${time-pos} # set A
ctrl+x set ab-loop-b ${time-pos} # set B
ctrl+c set ab-loop-a no # clear (mostly)
Fixes#1241.
OSD cycling attempted to remove the current message by setting an empty
message with duration 0. Duration 0 tripped up a corner case causing no
OSD to be displayed (until the next message was set), so exclude this
explicitly.
Each subsystem (or similar thing) had an INITIALIZED_ flag assigned. The
main use of this was that you could pass a bitmask of these flags to
uninit_player(). Except in some situations where you wanted to
uninitialize nearly everything, this wasn't really useful. Moreover, it
was quite annoying that subsystems had most of the code in a specific
file, but the uninit code in loadfile.c (because that's where
uninit_player() was implemented).
Simplify all this. Remove the flags; e.g. instead of testing for the
INITIALIZED_AO flag, test whether mpctx->ao is set. Move uninit code
to separate functions, e.g. uninit_audio_out().
This warning makes absolutely no sense. Passing an empty string to
printf-like functions is perfectly fine. In the OSD case, it just sets
an empty message, practically clearing the OSD.
set_osd_bar_chapters() always cleared the OSD bar stops, even if the
current bar was not the seek bar. Obviously it should leave the state of
the bar alone in this case.
Also change the function control flow so that we can drop one
indentation level, and do the equivalent change for the other OSD bar
functions.
Eliminate the remains of the OSD message stack. Another simplification
comes from the fact that we do not need to care about time going
backwards (we always use a monotonic time source, and wrapping time
values are practically impossible). What this code was pretty trivial,
and by now unnecessarily roundabout.
Merge get_osd_msg() into update_osd_msg(), and add_osd_msg() into
set_osd_msg_va().
There's no need to update OSD messages and the terminal status if nobody
is going to see it. Since the player doesn't block on video display
anymore, this update happens to often and probably burns slightly more
CPU than necessary. (OSD redrawing is handled separately, so it's just
mostly useless text processing and such.)
Change it so that it's updated only on every video frame or all 50ms
(whatever comes first).
For VO OSD, we could in theory try to lock to the OSD redraw heuristic
or the display refresh rate, but that's more complicated and doesn't
work for the terminal status.
