The OSC calls this "tooltip" (and although a general mechanism, there's
only one instance using it). One particular problem was that with the
default OSC layout, moving the mouse down and out of the window, the
tooltip stuck around, because the returned mouse position was the last
pixel row in the window, which still overlaps with the seek bar.
Instead of introducing mouse_in_window, you could check last_mouse_X for
nil, but I think this is clearer.
This returns (-1, -1) to the caller if the mouse is outside. Kind of
random, but works.
mp.set_osd_ass() (which was undocumented, or in other words, was not
supposed to be used by external scripts) used to do change detection in
the mpv C code. If the resolution or payload did not change, it was not
re-rendered on the lower levels.
Apparently this made some people sad, so fix it. (But only after I told
them to fuck off.) (Well I didn't put it this way, but still.)
When stats.lua is used without a video window then it uses the terminal.
On Windows, however, so far it disabled ansi escape sequences and used
plaintext unless ANSICON env is set.
It's unclear why it's disabled on windows, because at the time it was
added it only used bold by default and mpv ansi emulation on windows
already supported bold at that time.
We can guess that it was disabled because if the same config is used on
both linux and Windows, and it had complex escape sequences for
stats.lue, then it would be emulated incorrectly on Windows.
This shouldn't be an issue anymore, as the last two commits both enhance
the emulation to be quite complete (and graceful where it's not), and
also enable the much-more complete native VT terminal when possible
(Windows 10).
Just remove this windows exception at stats.lua.
It is more consistent for editions/chapters to go below either
the title or filename. They are all descriptive strings about
the media itself and not file metadata like filesize.
Suggested by Argon-
Edition information is conditional based on there being more than
one edition present. It is printed on the same line as Chapters to
save vertical space.
Keys and lines-to-scroll are configurabe, and the scroll keys are only
bound on pages which support scrolling (currently only page 4) - also
during oneshot (like the page-switching keys).
Scroll offset is reset for all pages on any key - except scroll keys, so
that entering or switching to a page resets the scroll, as well as when
"re-entering" the same page or "re-activating" the stats oneshot view.
TODO: print_page(..) is highly associated with extending the oneshot
timer if required. The timer handling can probably move into print_page
and removed from all the places which boilerplate its management.
This used 1 MB due to building the complete command and property list
when starting the script. These are needed only for auto-completion, so
build them only on demand. Since building them is fast enough, rebuild
them every time.
The key bindings table is not that much, but saves some KBs. Oddly, the
code to build it uses less memory than the table at runtime (???), so
build it at runtime as well.
Add 2 tactic collectgarbage() calls as well. This frees unused heap when
it is known that the script is going to be completely inactive until
re-enabled by the user.
In this case, init_buffers() was not called, and the unrelated cache
sample buffers were not initialized. It appears they are indeed
completely unrelated, so move their initialization away. Not sure what
exactly the purpose of calling init_buffers() is, maybe clearing old
data when displaying stats again. The new place for initializing the
cache sample buffers should achieve the same anyway.
Fixes: #7597
Add an infrastructure for collecting performance-related data, use it in
some places. Add rendering of them to stats.lua.
There were two main goals: minimal impact on the normal code and normal
playback. So all these stats_* function calls either happen only during
initialization, or return immediately if no stats collection is going
on. That's why it does this lazily adding of stats entries etc. (a first
iteration made each stats entry an API thing, instead of just a single
stats_ctx, but I thought that was getting too intrusive in the "normal"
code, even if everything gets worse inside of stats.c).
You could get most of this information from various profilers (including
the extremely primitive --dump-stats thing in mpv), but this makes it
easier to see the most important information at once (at least in
theory), partially because we know best about the context of various
things.
Not very happy with this. It's all pretty primitive and dumb. At this
point I just wanted to get over with it, without necessarily having to
revisit it later, but with having my stupid statistics.
Somehow the code feels terrible. There are a lot of meh decisions in
there that could be better or worse (but mostly could be better), and it
just sucks but it's also trivial and uninteresting and does the job. I
guess I hate programming. It's so tedious and the result is always shit.
Anyway, enjoy.
I think that makes more sense.
And also remove the graph from the total cache usage, since that wasn't
very interesting. So there's still a total of 2 graphs.
Lua changed behavior for this specific event. I considered the change
minor enough that it would not need to go through deprecation, but
someone hit it immediately and ask on the -dev channel.
It's probably better to restore the behavior. But mark it as deprecated,
since it's problematic (mismatch with the C API). Unfortunately, no
automatic warning is possible. (Or maybe it is, by playing sophisticated
Lua tricks such as setting a metatable and overriding indexing, but
let's not.)
The message_timeout field was basically polled. But ever since the OSC
was changed to work more event based, this didn't quite work. It was
quite visible when switching subtitle or audio tracks while paused (and
with caching disabled, since the cache update triggered some extra
redrawing).
Fix by using a proper timer.
I noticed that changing tracks with the message call commented didn't
redraw properly either, but, uh, I guess the message is always triggered
anyway, and happens to take care of this.
This is more or less a minimal hack to make _some_ text measurement
functionality available to scripts. Since libass does not support such a
thing, this simply uses the bounding box of the rendered text.
This is far from ideal. Problems include:
- using a bitmap bounding box
- additional memory waste and/or flushing caches
- dependency on window size
- odd small deviations with different window sizes (run osd-test.lua and
resize the window after each timer update; the bounding boxes aren't
adjusted in an overly useful way)
- inability to query the size _after_ actual rendering
But I guess it's a start. Since I'm aware that it's crap, add a threat
to the manpage that this may be changed/removed again. For now, I'm
interested whether anyone will have use for it in its current form, as
it's an often requested feature.
The "seekbarkeyframes" option is now interpreted such if it's true, the
player default is used. Too lazy to make this a choice option or
whatever; the Lua option parser doesn't have support for that anyway.
Someone who cares can adjust this.
This was obviously nonsense. In Lua 5.1 this appeared to work correctly,
but it really turned "\." into "." (making the pattern accept any
character). The proper way is using "%" for escaping.
In all_formats mode, we've ignored what --ytdl-format did so far, since
we've converted the full format list, instead of just the formats
selected by youtube-dl.
But we can easily restore --ytdl-format behavior: just mark the selected
tracks as default tracks.
vbr and abr are the video and audio bitrates. Sometimes there is a weird
mix of any of them available, but in these cases, it's not good to fall
back to tbr if a specific track has no vbr/abr.
For example, the alphabetic site provides tbr only for the muxed
fallback stream, but using tbr would make the primitive mpv hls_bitrate
selection pick the compatibility stream for audio, because it appears to
have a higher bitrate than the other audio-only streams (because the
bitrate includes video). So we must not use tbr in this case.
On the other hand, formats coming from youtube-dl HLS master playlist
use will only have tbr set.
So as a heuristic, use the tbr only if it's the only bitrate available
in any track entry.
I don't think the skip_muxed option was overlay useful. While it was
nice to filter out the low quality muxed versions (as it happens on the
alphabetic site, I suspect it's compatibility stuff), it's not really
necessary, and just makes for another tricky and rarely used
configuration option. (This was different before muxed tracks were also
delay-loaded, and including the muxed versions slowed down loading.)
Add the force_all_formats option instead, which handles the HLS case.
Set it to true because they are also delay-loaded now, and don't slow
down startup as much.
If all streams were delay loaded, there was actually no duration present
at all in the EDL metadata. So the length was considered unknown by the
player frontend.
See manpage additions. We would have to extend delay_open to support
multiple sub-tracks (for audio and video), and we'd still don't know (?)
whether it might contain more than one stream each (thinking of HLS
master streams). And if it's a true interleaved file (such as a "normal"
mp4 file provided as fallback for more primitive players), we'd either
have to signal such "bundled" tracks, or waste bandwidth.
This restructures a lot. The if/else tree in add_single_video for format
selection was a bit annoying, so it's split into separate if blocks,
where it checks each time whether a URL was determined yet.
If a "format" has both audio and video codec set, it might contain both
audio and video. all_format assumes that each format is just a quality
variant containing a single track.
This seems to happen with sites that provide a HLS master URL.
youtube-dl tends to "butcher" it, and the result isn't very ideal. I
guess HLS "renditions" simply don't map well to youtube-dl's output
format and what mpv expects. Playing master HLS directly is also less
than ideal, because of libavformat's stupid probing.
Fix this by not using the delay-opening mechanism if it appears like we
detected such a case. Add a metadata override to set the track titles to
"muxed-N", to indicate that they form a single unit. (Mostly helpful for
testing.)
Pretty worthless I guess. I only tested one site (and 2 videos), it's
somewhat likely that it will break with other sites. Even if you leave
the option disabled (the default).
Slightly related to #3548. This will allows you to use the bitrate
stream selection mechanism, that was added for HLS, with normal videos.
Uses the infrastructure added in the previous commits. This is
admittedly a bit weird (constructing EDL URLs and such). But on the
other hand, adding this as "first class" mechanism directly to the
sub-add command or so would increase weirdness and unexpected behavior
in other places, or at least that's what I think.
To reduce confusion, this goes through the effort of mapping the webvtt
codec, so it's shown "properly" in the codec list. Without this it would
show "null", but still work. In particular, any non-webvtt codecs should
still work if libavcodec supports it.
Not sure if I should remove the --all-subs hack from the code. But I
guess it does no harm.
While mpv normally uses the text a key produces (as opposed to physical
key mappings), this is different with the keypad. This is for the sake
of making it possible to distinguish between these keys and the normal
number keys on the left side of a full size keyboard.
There were complaints that the keypad doesn't interact with console.lua,
so manually map them. This ignores numlock (behaves as if it's always
on), and maps KP_DEC to "." (even though it's mapped to "," on some
keyboards). The /*-+ keys produce ASCII on mpv (at least with X11) as an
inexplicable inconsistency, so there are no mappings for these.
Fixes: #7431
The script was set up to only call on_update when the changelist
was non-empty. However, since the size operator does not operate
on dicts, it always returned 0 (which is truthy), thus on_update
would always be called when the script-opts property changed.
When switching between having a video visible or not,
stats.lua now picks up the required formatting changes
for the cache stats page to display correctly.
this deprecates the old cocoa backend only option and moves it to the
general macos ones. add support for the new option in the cocoa-cb
layer creation and use the new option in the olde cocoa backend.
Fixes#7272
Cache display updates, especially when it's bigger than few minute,
could have been be very infrequent to the point that one is not sure
if it updates at all.
Reduce the 10% change-threshold to 5% and add another threshold of 5s.
There are two improvements here:
1) Correct the right-side padding on the title box. This was messed
up previously because I was passing the title box width when I
should be passing the x coordinate. I've also increased the
spacing to separate the title from the window controls more
clearly.
2) I'ved added a mouse tracking area over the title bar so that the
osc doesn't disappear if you hover over the title box. This didn't
work previously because the input area only covers the actual
window controls. The implementation here is simplified in that
it's only a mouse area and not an input area. This is enough to
keep the osc visible, but it won't stop the mouse pointer
disappearing. Fixing that requires a full input area which, for
now, I will say isn't worth the effort.
It's a bit unintuitive today when you use the un-maximise control
while fullscreened. Depending on the VO in use, this might silently
change the maximise state without any visible effect, or it might
do nothing. It's less surprising if the control exits the fullscreen
state.
Note that the exact behaviour is still VO dependent. If the window
was maximised before being fullscreened, it might exit fullscreen
back to maximised or back to regular window mode.
I thought about trying to explicitly control that behaviour but
it makes the osc code weird and probably wouldn't work all the time.
The idea is that if the player is resized, we do not delay redrawing
(which is normally done to limit the redraw rate to something
reasonable).
Not sure if this even does anything. For one, reacting to osd-dimensions
changes is cleaner than just polling the screen size with the next tick
event, and hoping that resizes generate tick events for whatever
logically unrelated reasons.
See previous commit.
A nice side-effect is that mp.get_osd_margins() is not a special
Lua-only thing anymore. I didn't test whether this function still works
as expected, though.
Currently, the activation and deactivation of input handling is done
inside the render() loop, but this does not run when the osc mode is
`never` - which does make sense.
That means that if you are cycling the visibility mode, the input
state will be whatever it was at the time of the mode change. And,
as our modes are ordered `auto` -> `always` -> `never`, the input
state will be enabled when you cycle to `never`.
There are various ways you can imagine fixing this, and in this
change I propose we reset the input state to disabled on a mode
change, and then let render() re-enable input if that's appropriate.
Fixes#7298.
It's not really great. But I think it's good enough to save someone
who's lost. Most importantly, it should become obvious _what_ the
console expects (input commands), and how to exit it.
Would be nice if we could show some documentation, or give a link to
documentation, but that's out of scope and/or not easy.
I considered implementing the "help" command as builtin command in
command.c. On the other hand, this could not show console.lua specific
help, so I implemented it in console.lua. The ad-hoc command parsing
(that sort-of mirrors mpv input command syntax) for the "help" command
is probably the worst part of this.
It's deprecated. The new solution works almost exactly the same way
(since the still existing internal tick event triggers vsync-jitter
change command), though as far as API usage goes, it's somewhat
questionable. (The comment is meant to discourage anyone trying to copy
the idea for external scripts.)
This affects behavior when using the "del" default key binding.
Sometimes, setting visibility to always did not draw it correctly. This
probably fixes it.
A minority of users have expressed a dislike of hats, calling them
"cancer [that] don't belong in software" describing the people who add
them as "shitty circlejerks" and "chucklefuck."
While I personally disagree with those opinions, it's probably easier
to let them have it their way. For that reason this adds the option
`greenandgrumpy` to the osc, which allows users to disable the hat.
libass uses integers for PlayResX/Y, so the osd-overlay command also
does. Lua (pre-5.3) does not have an integer type, but the command
interface makes a difference anyway. If you pass a Lua number with a
fractional part to an integer parameter (using mp.command_native()), it
will result in an error and complain about incompatible types.
I think that's fine, but since this behavior extends to
mp.set_osd_ass(), this is a compatibility problem.
Fix this by explicitly coercing the resolution parameters to integer
numbers.
The main reason for this is just to make show the OSC always above
console.lua, instead of a random order.
(And this is also the only reason osc.lua was changed to the new API.
The old API could have been extended, but lets not.)
This tries to avoid the update() call if nothing changed. This brings it
more into line with the old code (the osd-overlay command simply does
not skip the update if nothing changed). I don't know whether this
matters; most likely not. Normally, code should try to avoid redundant
updates on its own, so it's not the job of the command. However, for the
OSC we simply want to reduce the differences.
Lua scripting has an undocumented mp.set_osd_ass() function, which is
used by osc.lua and console.lua. Apparently, 3rd party scripts also use
this. It's probably time to make this a public API.
The Lua implementation just bypassed the libmpv API. To make it usable
by any type of client, turn it into a command, "osd-overlay".
There's already a "overlay-add". Ignore it (although the manpage admits
guiltiness). I don't really want to deal with that old command. Its main
problem is that it uses global IDs, while I'd like to avoid that scripts
mess with each others overlays (whether that is accidentally or
intentionally). Maybe "overlay-add" can eventually be merged into
"osd-overlay", but I'm too lazy to do that now.
Scripting now uses the commands. There is a helper to manage OSD
overlays. The helper is very "thin"; I only want to force script authors
to use the ID allocation, which may help with putting multiple scripts
into a single .lua file without causing conflicts (basically, avoiding
singletons within a script's environment). The old set_osd_ass() is
emulated with the new API.
The JS scripting wrapper also provides a set_osd_ass() function, which
calls internal mpv API. Comment that part (to keep it compiling), but
I'm leaving it to @avih to finish the change.
Lua scripting implements key bindings by defining an input section with
all the bindings in it. Every add_key_binding() call ran a mpv command
to update this section. This caused a lot of spam at debug log levels.
Reduce the spam and more it efficient by batching updates into a single
mpv command when the script becomes inactive. This is pretty simple,
because there's already the concept of idle handlers.
This requires that the script actually goes to sleep, which might not
happen in various extremely bogus corner cases, such as polling the mpv
message queue with active waiting. Just don't do that.
During the 12th month (checked during script initialization), draw a Santa hat
on top of the idle message's logo.
Slightly refactors and optimizes the drawing process as well: reorder original
logo layers and remove redundant holes in them, use a shared line prefix
to clear the style and set start position.

Make sure it gets properly reinitialized when needed. This is especially
useful now that the OSC reacts to runtime option changes, which can
change the layout too.
This may call set_property_number() on the margin properties more often
now, but since redundant option changes are ignored now, this shouldn't
have any too bad effects.
Fuck it, just let's just reinit everything.
On a side note, the changelist parameter provided by read_options()
(here "list") is now unused. But it's not hard to provide and might be
useful for other stuff. So don't remove it from the generic
read_options() code.
As described in the manpage changes. This makes more sense than the
previous approach, where options could "unexpectedly" stick. Although
this is still a somewhat arbitrary policy (ask many people and you'd get
a number of different expectations on what should happen), I think that
it reflects what mpv's builtin stuff does.
All the copying is annoying, but let's just hope nobody is stupid enough
to change these properties per video frame or something equally
ridiculous.
With special attention to changing osc-visibility. Untested, although
osc-visibility works (it's pretty much equivalent to the key binding, so
there is not much interesting going on).
Somewhat inspired by code posted by github user CogentRedTester.
Fixes: #4513
The way how this modifies and backups/restores user option values is a
bit of a problem for runtime option changing.
Clean this up a little. Now cycling the visibility updates the user
option value, but always to "valid" values (unlike hidetimeout used to
be used). If the user option value is changed externally (enabled by a
later commit), it'll be cleanly overwritten.
I decided to factor this into the user's scale option (instead of
somehow using it as default if the user has not specified it), because
it makes the option handling simpler, and won't break things like
per-screen DPI if the user only wants to scale the console font by a
factor.
Traditionally, the OSC used mpv's "tick" event, which was approximately
sent once per video frame. It didn't try to track any other state, and
just updated everything.
This is sort of a problem in many corner cases and non-corner cases. For
example, it would eat CPU in the paused state (probably to some degree
also the mpv core's fault), or would waste power or even throw errors
("event queue overflows") on high FPS video.
Change this to not using the tick event. Instead, react to a number of
property change events. Rate-limit actual redrawing with a timer; the
next update cannot happen sooner than the hardcoded 30ms OSC frame
duration. This has also the effect that multiple successive updates are
(mostly) coalesced.
This means the OSC won't eat your CPU when the player is fucking paused.
(It'll still update if e.g. the cache is growing, though.) There is some
potential for bugs whenever it uses properties that are not explicitly
observed. (In theory we could easily change this to a reactive concept
to avoid such things, but whatever.)
This is for console.lua (see next commit). The idea is that console.lua
can adjust its offset to the bottom of the window by the height of the
OSC.
If the OSC is not set to permanently visible, export no margins, because
it would look weird to move the console depending on the mouse movement.
Very primitive and dumb, but fulfils its purpose for the next commits.
I chose this specific implementation because it has the lowest footprint
in command.c, without resorting to crazy hacks such as sending messages
between scripts (which would be hard to coordinate especially on
startup).
This is similar to the "edition" change.
I considered making this go through deprecation, but didn't have a good
idea how to do that. Maybe it's fine, because this is pretty obscure.
But it might break some API users/scripts (it certainly broke
stats.lua), and all I have to say is sorry for that.
I missed adding this when defining the style used for the video
title in the window control bar. The default behaviour is to wrap,
but we want to cut the title off when we run out of space.
I was recently informed that unicode has official symbols for
window controls, and I put together a change to use them, which
worked, as long as a suitable font was installed. However, it's
not that hard to get a normal system that lacks an appropriate
font, and libass wants to print warnings if the symbols aren't
in the default font, which will almost always be true.
So, I gave up and added the symbols to the custom osd font that
we already have. This ensures they are always available, and
that they are aligned consistently on all platforms.
I took the symbols from the `symbola` font, as this has a suitable
licence and the symbols look nice enough.
Symbola Licence:
Fonts are free for any use; they may be opened, edited,
modified, regenerated, packaged and redistributed.
Finally, as we now have access to an un-maximize symbol, I added
logic to use it when the window is maximized.
I had previously wondered whether to do this, but in my testing
with x11 and wayland, the osc was being re-inited on a border
toggle already so I didn't add it.
However, on win32, things are different and there is no re-init
when toggling borders. I belive this is because the active window
size doesn't change in anyway, while on x11/wayland, toggling the
border actually changes the window size - and that trigger a re-init.
So, let's just be explicit and request a re-init when the border
is toggled.
Merged from mpv-repl git repo commit 5ea2bf64f9c239f0326b02. Some
changes were made on top of it:
- Tabs were converted to 4 spaces indentation (plus some manual
indentation fixes in some places).
- All user-visible mentions of "repl" were renamed to "console".
- The README was converted to a manpage (with heavy changes, some
additions taken from stats.rst; rossy converted the key bindings
table to RST).
- The method to change the default key binding was changed.
- Change minor detail about "font" default value setting (not a
functional change).
- Integrate into the player as builtin script, including an option to
prevent loading it.

Later calls to mp.add_key_binding() should take priority over previous
calls with the same key. Until now, the order was random (due to using
table pairs() iteration order).
Do this by simply sorting by a counter that is never reset. Since
input.c also gives later bindings priority, this works out.
Calling mp.remove_key_binding() on a newer binding makes an older still
existing binding with the same key active again. New bindings override
older ones, but do not overwrite them. I think these are good semantics
for most use cases.
(Note that the Lua code cannot determine whether two bindings use the
same key. Keys are strings, and two different strings could refer to the
same key. The code does not have access to input.c's key name
normalization, so it cannot compare them.)
To aid in discoverability, and to address the most common case
directly, I'm adding an 'auto' mode for the window controls. In
this case, we will show the controls if there is no window border
and hide them if there are borders. This also respects the option
being toggled at runtime.
To ensure that it works in the wayland case, I've also made sure
that the wayland code explicitly forces the option to false if
decoration support is missing.
Based on feedback, I've split the config in two, with one option
for whether controls are active, and one for alignment. These are
new enough that we can get away with ignoring compatibility.
As preparation for adding the auto mode for window controls, we need
to make sure that the controls can be successfully toggled at runtime,
rather than only being able to configure them once at startup. Right
now, there is a problem with the handling of the show/hide zone for
the window controls.
The previous fix for #7212 was to avoid registering the input mapping
for the window control show/hide zone. If there is no input mapping,
then there is no input, and the zone is a no-op, even if it exists.
But this only happens at startup. After that point, the input mapping
doesn't exist and cannot be turned on.
In this change, I'm switching the approach; we now go back to always
registering the input mapping, and instead, we zero out the show/hide
zone if window controls are disabled, and set its size appropriately
if they are enabled.
I always intended for this to be accepted and mean "right" but I
made it show an error for any value that's not explicitly
recognised (while considering all unrecognised values to mean "right").
So let's explicitly recognise "yes".
This is necessary to avoid breaking input behaviour in the 'idle'
state when not playing a video. Otherwise, the mouse area starts off
covering the whole window and blocks normal input.
Commit 311cc5b6 added the ability use flags while omitting name, but
broke the case where both name and flags are omitted.
Now omitting either name or flags or both works as documented.
It seems logical to account for the window controls if `boxvideo`
is in use (which has the effect of reducing the size of the video
so that the osc is not covering the video).
I missed these due to only testing with my personal osc config.
The deadzone needs to be correctly handled for the window controls,
or they will fail to appear when the mouse is close to or over them.
In the process of doing that, I realised that the controls should
respect the barmargin, if set. This is because the controls should
remain aligned when layout=topbar and as the control bar is top
aligned, it should be equally affected if the user needs to set
the barmargin.
I also fixed a mistake in trying to the use the mpv-osd-symbols font
for the window controls.
Today, if window decorations are not present, either because they were
disabled, or because the platform doesn't support them
(eg: gnome-shell on wayland), there are no window controls, meaning it
is not possible to minimize/maximize/close a window without knowing
keyboard shortcuts.
While you can imagine various ways of offering client side decorations,
it is attractive to consider using OSC because that is functionality
that we already have.
The main work here is defining a separate input area from the main
OSC box with its own buttons, etc.
While we could probably handle auto-detection based on whether
decorations are present or not, it's manually controlled for now.
The window control logic is mostly disconnected from the OSC itself,
except in the case of the `topbar` layout, where there has to be
coordination so that the controls don't get drawn on top of each other.
I had to do fine-positioning of the buttons based on the font on
my system, so don't be surprised if it looks wrong elsewhere.
You could also argue that window controls should be unscaled, even
if the main OSC box is scaled, but I've not tried to do this.
add_key_binding() makes the name argument optional (in weird Lua
fashion), which did not work if there were additional arguments. So
there is no way to avoid specifying a name while passing a rp argument.
Fix this, declare this way of skipping the argument as deprecated, and
allow passing name=nil as the preferred way to skip the name argument.
Particularly for "any_unicode" mappings, so they don't have to
special-case keys like '#' and ' ', which are normally mapped to
symbolic names for input.conf reasons. (Though admittedly, this is a
pretty minor thing, since API users could map these manually.)
Make the existing "not found" messages debug only, and add a new verbose
message if a config file was opened. The idea is that logging should
make it apparent whether or not config files are loaded, and it's more
common to use scripts without config files, leading to fewer log
messages in verbose mode.
Some failures by youtube-dl prompt the user to submit a bug report.
If such a failure occurs, we can compare youtube-dl's version to the
current calendar date to see how old it is. We don't make this check
on every youtube-dl failure, as failing to extract an URL is quite
common, and waiting for a second blocking python interpreter startup
for every such case would be a bit unpleasant.
Here the assumption is made that any youtube-dl version older than
3 months is probably severely out of date. Users will be warned about
this.
We also output the trimmed stderr of youtube-dl with msg.error, as this
appeared to have been the behaviour of utils.subprocess without stderr
capturing. Since this uses mp.command_native now, we'll have to do this
ourselves where appropriate.
The readahead time should be interesting for latency vs. underruns
(which idiot protocols like HLS suffer from).
The total byte usage is less interesting than I hoped; maybe the
frequency at which it samples should be reduced. (Kind of dumb - you
want high frequency for the readahead field, but much lower for byte
usage.)
Of course, the code was copy&pasted from the DS ratio/jitter stuff. Some
of the choices may not make any sense for the new code.
Normally I use the OSC like this: not at all, but have a key binding
that does "cycle osc" to show it. And in that case, I don't really want
it to overlap the damn video.
I could use the zoom/pan options to move the video out of the way, but
this is also sort of annoying. Likewise, you could write a script or so
which does this automatically if the OSC appears, but that's still
annoying, and computing values for these options such that the video is
moved correctly is tricky.
So I added a bunch of options that set explicit video borders (previous
commit), and a option for the OSC to use them (this commit).
Disabled by default, since I'm afraid this is too awkward and
unpolished, especially with OSC default settings.
I'm also using "osc-visibility=always". Effectively, making the OSC
appear will box the video, and making it disappear (by unloading
osc.lua) will restore the video back to normal.
Remove the singly linked list hack, replace it with a slightly more
proper data structure. This probably gets rid of a few minor bugs along
the way, caused by the awkward nonsensical sharing/duplication of some
fields.
Another change (because I'm touching everything related to timeline
anyway) is that I'm removing the special semantics for parts[num_parts].
This is now strictly out of bounds, and instead of using the start time
of the next/beyond-last part, there is an end time field now.
Unfortunately, this also requires touching the code for cue and mkv
ordered chapters. From some superficial testing, they still seem to
mostly work.
One observable change is that the "no_chapters" header is per-stream
now, which is arguably more correct, and getting the old behavior would
require adding code to handle it as special-case, so just adjust
ytdl_hook.lua to the new behavior.
I noticed that some ytdl streams have a start time other than 0. There's
currently no mechanism inside of the EDL stuff that determines this
start time correctly, so it can happen that if the start time is high,
demux_timeline.c tries to clip off the entire video and audio, resulting
in failure of playback.
As a counter measure, use the no_clip header, which entirely disables
clipping against time ranges in demux_timeline.c. (It's basically a
hack.)
Init fragments are not a necessity for DASH, but this code assumed so.
Maybe the check was to prevent worse. But using normal EDL here leads to
very shitty behavior where it tries to open hundreds or thousands of
fragments, each with its own demuxer and HTTP connection. (This behavior
is fine for normal uses of EDLs, but completely unacceptable when
emulating fragmented streaming protocols. I'm not sure why the normal
EDL code is needed here, but I think someone claimed some obscure sites
just need it.)
This happens in the same situation as the one described in the previous
commit.
Otherwise we'd just use the base URL as media URL, which would fail with
a 404 error.
Not sure if there's a deeper reason why the audio path was explicitly
different from the video one. But this actually works now for a video
that returned fragmented DASH audio with the default format selection.
(This affects streams on that well known site of a big evil Silicon
Valley company. Typically happens after live stream gets converted to a
normal video, though after some time passes, this fragmented version is
deleted, and replaced by a non-fragmented one. I've observed this
several times and this seems to be the "normal" behavior.)
This merges separate audio and video tracks into one virtual stream,
which helps the mpv caching layer. See previous EDL commit for details.
It's apparently active for most of evil Silicon Valley giant's streaming
videos.
Initial tests seem to work fine, except it happens pretty often that
playback goes into buffering immediately even when seeking within a
cached range, because there is not enough forward cache data yet to
fully restart playback. (Or something like this.)
The audio stream title used to be derived from track.format_note; this
commit stops doing so. It seemed pointless anyway. If really necessary,
it could be restored by adding new EDL headers.
Note that we explicitly don't do this with subtitle tracks. Subtitle
tracks still have a chance with on-demand loading or loading in the
background while video is already playing; merging them with EDL would
prevent this. Currently, subtitles are still added in a "blocking"
manner, but in theory this could be loosened. For example, the Lua API
already provides a way to run processes asynchronously, which could be
used to add subtitles during playback. EDL will probably be never
flexible enough to provide this. Also, subtitles are downloaded at
once, rather than streamed like audio and video.
Still missing: disabling EDL's pointless chapter generation, and
propagating download speed statistics through the EDL wrapper.
The ytdl wrapper can resolve web links to playlists. This playlist is
passed as big memory:// blob, and will contain further quite normal web
links. When playback of one of these playlist entries starts, ytdl is
called again and will resolve the web link to a media URL again.
This didn't work if playlist entries resolved to EDL URLs. Playback was
rejected with a "potentially unsafe URL from playlist" error. This was
completely weird and unexpected: using the playlist entry directly on
the command line worked fine, and there isn't a reason why it should be
different for a playlist entry (both are resolved by the ytdl wrapper
anyway). Also, if the only EDL URL was added via audio-add or sub-add,
the URL was accessed successfully.
The reason this happened is because the playlist entries were marked as
STREAM_SAFE_ONLY, and edl:// is not marked as "safe". Playlist entries
passed via command line directly are not marked, so resolving them to
EDL worked.
Fix this by making the ytdl hook set load-unsafe-playlists while the
playlist is parsed. (After the playlist is parsed, and before the first
playlist entry is played, file-local options are reset again.) Further,
extend the load-unsafe-playlists option so that the playlist entries are
not marked while the playlist is loaded.
Since playlist entries are already verified, this should change nothing
about the actual security situation.
There are now 2 locations which check load_unsafe_playlists. The old one
is a bit redundant now. In theory, the playlist loading code might not
be the only code which sets these flags, so keeping the old code is
somewhat justified (and in any case it doesn't hurt to keep it).
In general, the security concept sucks (and always did). I can for
example not answer the question whether you can "break" this mechanism
with various combinations of archives, EDL files, playlists files,
compromised sites, and so on. You probably can, and I'm fully aware that
it's probably possible, so don't blame me.
Manual changes done:
* Merged the interface-changes under the already master'd changes.
* Moved the hwdec-related option changes to video/decode/vd_lavc.c.
Merge file-size/file-format and audio channel-count/format into one line
respectively. This fixes stats overflowing the screen in larger than
19:6 aspect ratios. In this case a problem was reported for ~21:9 which
should be common enough for us to "support" it.
Idle handlers used to not be executed when timers were active
Now they are executed:
* After all expired timers have been executed
* After all events have been processed (same as when there are no timers)
When seeking near the end of the file and the next file loads, seeking
continues on the next file at the same position and then immediately
the file after that. This patch stops slider seeking when a new file is
loaded, which is the standard behavior of many other players.
The "run" command is old. I'm not sure why the separate Lua
implementation was added. But maybe it as because the "run" command used
to be limited to a small number of arguments. This limit has been
removed a while ago. In any case, the old implementation is not needed
anymore.
We keep mp.subprocess() with roughly the same semantics for
compatibility with scripts (including the internal ytdl script).
Seems to work with rhe ytdl wrapper. Not tested further.
Fixes `--ytdl-format="dash-fastly_skyfire-video-363357330+dash-fastly_skyfire_sep-audio-363357330" https://vimeo.com/108650530`
This happened because the video track also had audio available and after
adding it expecting an audio-only track, there were no more tracks with video.
As it turns out, there are multiple libmpv users who saw a need to
use the hook API. The API is kind of shitty and was never meant to be
actually public (it was mostly a hack for the ytdl script).
Introduce a proper API and deprecate the old one. The old one will
probably continue to work for a few releases, but will be removed
eventually.
There are some slight changes to the old API, but if a user followed
the manual properly, it won't break.
Mostly untested. Appears to work with ytdl_hook.
Previously, section titles (File/Video/Audio) were printed as suffix of
a property that was assumed to always exist. However, with e.g.
lavi-complex this is not the case, therfore, print them without being
dependent on a property.
Switch from audio|video to audio|video-out-params properties as per
recommendation in #5670. These properties are tables and include
information explicitly queried later, so switch to using these tables
and reduce the amount of queried properties.
Fixes#5670
Disable by default.
This feature was added in 7eb342757, which allowed stream selection
in runtime. Problem with this atm is that FFmpeg will try to demux
every first packet of every track leading to noticeable delay opening
the URL.
This option can be changed to enabled by default or removed when
HLS/DASH demuxers are improved upstream.
Remove obsolete comment about FFmpeg ignoring non-http proxies
which was repeated in ytdl_hook before the feature was added.
Remove unnecessary conditions for not nil. Lua tables will always
return nil for non-existent keys.
FFmpeg only suppports http proxies and ignores it if
the resulting url is https. Also, no SOCKS.
Use it like `--ytdl-raw-options=proxy=[http://127.0.0.1:3128]` so
it doesn't confuse mpv because of the colons.
You need to pass it as an option because youtube-dl doesn't give
us the proxy.
Or just set `http_proxy` environment variable as recommended before.
Added example using -append, which doesn't need escaping.
This makes all the video/audio variants available for selection.
Might break with non-hls/dash, or even with dash if FFmpeg wasn't
compiled with the demuxer.
Not very clean since there's a lot of potential unsafe urls that youtube-dl
can give us, depending on whether it's a single url, split tracks,
playlists, segmented dash, etc.
package.config is available in 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and luajit, so should be fine.
The first character is the path separator, so it's '\' on windows and '/'
on *nix.
This should also prevent cases where users download the wrong binary.
Show total cache as well as demuxer cache separately.
This adjusts the presented values to be consistent with status line
and OSC modifications made in https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/5250
Same as previous commit, but for the OSC.
(A bit of a waste to request demuxer-cache-state at least twice per
frame, but the OSC queries so many properties it probably doesn't matter
anymore.)
I've decided that MP_TRACE means “noisy spam per frame”, whereas
MP_DBG just means “more verbose debugging messages than MSGL_V”.
Basically, MSGL_DBG shouldn't create spam per frame like it currently
does, and MSGL_V should make sense to the end-user and provide mostly
additional informational output.
MP_DBG is basically what I want to make the new default for --log-file,
so the cut-off point for MP_DBG is if we probably want to know if for
debugging purposes but the user most likely doesn't care about on the
terminal.
Also, the debug callbacks for libass and ffmpeg got bumped in their
verbosity levels slightly, because being external components they're a
bit less relevant to mpv debugging, and a bit too over-eager in what
they consider to be relevant information.
I exclusively used the "try it on my machine and remove messages from
MSGL_* until it does what I want it to" approach of refactoring, so
YMMV.
Previously multiple timers were used to realize oneshot, toggling
(redrawing) and page keybindings. The oneshot case in particular also
relied on mp.osd_message to display text only for a given duration.
This was changed to only use one timer in total now. Because now each
case has a defined "start" and "end" point (including oneshot)
mp.set_osd_ass() can be used to print stats as well. This is currently
optional and has to be activated using the config option
persistent_overlay=true.
One shortcoming: oneshot and toggling are mutual exclusive right now.
Previously you could enter toggling while oneshot stats were shown,
this is not possible anymore to reduce the number of cases to be
considered. This can be added later on if desired.
It used a bad heuristic that got even worse/less reliable with recent
changes in mpv. In fact, it's not reliable at all.
Watch out for dropped frames instead. That's a useful indicator.
