When showing cover art, the decoding logic pretends that the source has
an infinite number of frames. This slightly simplifies dealing with
filter data flow. It was done by feeding the same packet repeatedly to
the decoder (each decode run produces new output).
Change this by decoding once at the video initialization. This is easier
to follow, and increases robustness in case of broken images. Usually,
we try to tolerate decoding errors, so decoding normally continues, but
in this case it would just burn the CPU for no reason.
Fixes#2056.
The previous behavior is confusing if the B point is near EOF (consider
B being the duration of the file, which is strictly speaking past the
last video timestamp). The new behavior is fine as well for B being far
past EOF.
Achieve this by checking the EOF state in addition to whether playback
has reached the B point. Also, move the A-B loop code out of
command_event(). It just isn't useful anymore, and obfuscates the code
more than it makes it loop simple.
Fixes#2046.
Seems logical.
Note that if playback otherwise ends while playback is active and a seek
is still queued, we still exit. Otherwise you couldn't end playback by
seeking past the end of the file (which is classic MPlayer and mpv
behavior).
Used a wrong condition, and I suppose it could crash in some situations.
Change it to lazily initialize the hotplug stuff, like the
audio-device-list property does.
This was matching e.g. both "foo/bar" and "foobar" against "foo", when
only the former should match. This could cause more property
notifications than necessary.
This provides a new method for enabling spdif passthrough. The old
method via --ad (--ad=spdif:ac3 etc.) is deprecated. The deprecated
method will probably stop working at some point.
This also supports PCM fallback. One caveat is that it will lose at
least 1 audio packet in doing so. (I don't care enough to prevent this.)
(This is named after the old S/PDIF connector, because it uses the same
underlying technology as far as the higher level protoco is concerned.
Also, the user should be renamed that passthrough is backwards.)
This makes no sense, because the format can't be converted anyway. It
just sets up the filter chain init code, which will vomit a bunch of
useless and confusing messages. So uninit and fail explicitly when this
happens.
When starting in paused mode, no audio is written to the device at all,
because writing audio implicitly unpauses the AO. If the file is very
small, and all audio fits within the AO buffer, this accidentally
triggered the EOF condition. (In unpaused mode, it would write all
audio, end playback, and then wait until the AO has everything played.)
There's a short time during loading where external commands can add
external streams even before the main file is loaded (like during ytdl
hook execution). The track list is printed every time an external track
is added via commands. This was quite awkward when ytdl was adding
multiple streams, so don't print it in this stage. They are printed
anyway at the end of the loading process.
It polluted the global namespace, instead of exporting the function
properly.
For now, keep it compatible by explicitly keeping the bogus export.
Also fix a mistake in the manpage example.
This command has been deprecated in the 0.8.x and 0.9.x releases - get
rid of it. Its only point ever was MPlayer compatibility, which broke
years ago anyway.
For certain reasons, we allow adding external tracks even before the
main file is loaded. This somewhat breaks in old assumption, which uses
mpctx->num_sources to determine whether a command can be applied in the
current state. Use the newer playback_initialized instead, which is a
much better choice for this purpose.
The previous commit removed this. Although mp_switch_track() can now be
called in all situations, we still don't want it to be called here.
Setting a track property while no file is loaded would simply deselect
the track instead of setting the underlying option to the requested
value.
Likewise, if the "cycle" command (M_PROPERTY_SWITCH) is used, don't just
deselect the track.
Adding an external audio track before loading the main file didn't work
right. For one, mp_switch_track() assumes it is called after the main
file is loaded. (The difference is that decoders are only initialized
once the main file is loaded, and we avoid doing this before that for
whatever reason.)
To avoid further messiness, just allow mp_switch_track() to be called at
any time. Also make it do what mp_mark_user_track_selection() did, since
the latter requires current_track to be set. (One could probably simply
allow current_track to be set at this point, but it'd interfere with
default track selection anyway and thus would be pointless.)
Fixes#1984.
Wnile it seems quite logical to me that commands use _ as word
separator, while properties use -, I can't really explain the
difference, and it tends to confuse users as well. So always
prefer - as separator for everything.
Using _ still works, and will probably forever. Not doing so would
probably create too much chaos and confusion.
Now it simply changes the options, i.e. what will be requested, instead
of returning M_PROPERTY_UNAVAILABLE.
This is another minor step towards unifying options and properties.
Still a bit weird: it will always return "no" if no file is loaded, and
disregards the option value.
Also replace their implementation with the recently introduced
properties. One significant difference is that audio-channels using OSD
formatting does not print the channel layout. The user can just use the
replacement property instead.
Now --volume takes an absolute volume, meaning it doesn't depend on
--softvol-max. 0 is still silence, and 100 now always means unchanged
volume. The OSD and the "volume" property are changed accordingly.
Also raise the minimum value of --softvol-max. A value below 100 makes
no sense and breaks the OSD.
The code checking for the type of seeking contained some if else
statements. To improve readability, I decided to refactor those
statements to a switch statement.
