Caused by the relatively recent change to packet parsing. This time it
was probably triggered by lace type 0, which reduces the byte length of
a 0 sized packet to 3 (timestamp + flag) instead of 4 (lace count for
other lace types). The thing about laces is just my guess why it worked
for other 0 sized packets, though.
Also remove the redundant and now incorrect check below.
Fixes#5271.
This log line tells us why the demuxer is trying to read more, which us
useful when debugging queue overflows. Probably barely useful, but I
think keeping that flag separately also makes the code slightly easier
to understand.
This fixes weird behavior in the following case:
- open a file
- make sure the max. demuxer forward cache is smaller than the
file's video track
- make sure the max. readahead duration is larger than the file's
duration
- disable the audio track
- seek to the beginning of the file
- once the cache has filled enable the audio track
- a queue overflow warning should appear
(- looking at the seek ranges is also interesting)
The queue overflow warning happens because the packed queue for the
video track will use up the full quota set by --demuxer-max-bytes. When
the audio track is enabled, reading an audio packet would technically
overflow the packet cache by the size of whatever packet is read next.
This means the demuxer signals EOF to the decoder, and once playback has
consumed enough video packets so that audio packets can be read again,
the decoder resumes from EOF. This interacts badly with A/V
synchronization and the whole thing can randomly crap itself until audio
has fully recovered.
We didn't care about this so far, but we want to raise the readahead
duration to something very high, so that the demuxer cache is fully
used. This means this case can be hit quite quickly by switching audio
or subtitle tracks, and is not really an obscure corner case anymore.
Fix this by always losing all cache. Since the cache can't be used
anyway until the newly selected track has been read, this is not much of
a disadvantage. The only thing that could be brought up is that
unselecting the track again could resume operation normally. (Maybe this
would be useful if network died completely without chance of recovery.
Then you could watch the already buffered video anyway by deselecting
the audio track again.) But given the headaches, this seems like the
better solution.
Unfortunately this requires adding new new strange fields and strangely
fragmenting state management functions again. I'm sure whoever works on
this in the future will hate me. Currently it seems like the lesser
evil, and much simpler and robust than the other potential solutions.
In case this needs to be revisited, here is a reminder for readers from
the future what alternative solutions were considered, without those
disadvantages:
A first attempted solution allowed the demuxer to buffer some additional
packets on track switching. This would allow it to read enough data to
feed the decoder at least. But it was still awkward, as it didn't allow
the demuxer to continue prefetching the newly selected track. It also
barely worked, because you could make the forward buffer "over full" by
seeking back with seekable cache enabled, and then it couldn't read
packets anyway.
As alternative solution, we could always demux and cache all tracks,
even if they're deselected. This would also not require a network-level
seek for the "refresh" logic (it's the thing that lets the video decoder
continue as if nothing happened, while actually seeking back in the
stream to get the missing audio packets, in the case of enabling a
previously disabled audio track). But it would also possibly waste
network and memory resources, depending on what the user actually wants.
A second solution would just account the queue sizes for each stream
separately. We could freely fill up the audio packet queue, even if the
video queue is full. Since the demuxer API returns interleaved packets
and doesn't let you predict which packet type comes next, this is not as
simple as it sounds, but it'd probably tie in nicely with the "refresh"
logic.
A third solution would be removing buffered video packets from the end
of the packet queue. Since the "refresh" logic gets these anyway, there
is no reason to keep them if they prevent the audio packet queue from
catching up with the video one. But this would require additional logic,
would interact badly with a bunch of other corner cases. And as far as
the code goes, it's rather complex, because all the logic is written
with FIFO behavior in mind (including the fact that the packet queue is
a singly linked list with no backwards links, making removal from the
end harder).
It seems like there's nothing stopping from sub-demuxers from keeping
packets in the cache, even if it's completely pointless. The top-most
demuxer (demux_timeline) already takes care of caching, so sub-demuxers
only waste space and time with this.
Add a function that can disable the packet cache even at runtime and
after packets are read. (It's not clear whether it really can happen
that packets are read before demux_timeline gets the sub-demuxers, but
there's no reason to make it too fragile.) Call it on all sub-demuxers.
For this to work, it seems we have to move the code for setting the
seekable_cache flag to before demux_timeline is potentially initialized,
because otherwise the cache would be reenabled if the demuxer triggering
timeline support is a timeline segment itself (e.g. ordered chapters).
This fixes missing audio when cycling through audio tracks with anything
that uses nested demuxers, such as demux_timeline, which us used for
EDL, --merge-files, ordered chapters, and youtube-dl pseudo DASH
support. When this bug happened, reenabling an audio track would lead to
silence for the duration of the readahead amount.
The underlying reason is the incorrectly updated buffered range on track
switch. It accidentally included the amount covered by the deselected
stream. But the cause of the observed effect was that demux_timeline
issued a refresh seek to the underlying slave demuxer, which in turn
thought it could do a cache seek, because the seek range still included
everything.
update_stream_selection_state() calls update_seek_ranges() to update the
seek ranges after a track switch. When reenabling the track, ds->eager
was set to false during update_seek_ranges(), which made it think the
stream was sparse, and thus it didn't restrict the current seek range
(making later code think everything was buffered). Fix this by moving
some code, so we first update the ds->eager flag, then the seek ranges.
Also verbose log the low level stream selection calls.
Always display the duration as "unknown" if the duration is known. Also
fix that at least demux_lavf reported unknown duration as 0 (fix by
setting the default to unknown in demux.c).
Remove the dumb _u formatter function, and use a different approach to
avoiding displaying "unknown" as playback time on playback start (set
last_seek_pts for that).
This gives the filename or URL to the libavformat probing logic, which
might use the file extension as a "help" to decide which format the file
is. This helps with mp3 files that have large id3v2 tags and prevents
the idiotic ffmpeg probing logic to think that a mp3 file is amr.
(What we really want is knowing whether we _really_ need to feed more
data to libavformat to detect the format. And without having to pre-read
excessive amounts of data for relatively normal streams.)
If the backbuffer is much larger than the forward buffer, and if you
join a small range with a large range (larger than the forward buffer),
then the seek issues to the end of the range after joining will overflow
the queue.
Normally, read_more will be false when the forward buffer is full, but
the resume seek after joining will set need_refresh to true, which
forces more reading and thus triggers the overfloe warning.
Attempt to fix this by not setting read_more to true on refresh seeks.
Set prefetch_more instead. read_more will still be set if an A/V stream
has no data.
This doesn't help with the following problems related to using refresh
seeks for track switching:
- If the forward buffer is full, then enabling another track will
obviously immediately overflow the queue, and immediately lead to
marking the new track as having no more data (i.e. EOF). We could cut
down the forward buffer or so, but there's no simple way to implement
it. Another possibility would be dropping all buffers and trying to
resume again, but this would likely be complex as well.
- Subtitle tracks will not even show a warning (because they are sparse,
and we have no way of telling whether a packet is missing, or there's
just no packet near the current position). Before this commit,
enabling an empty subtitle track would probably have overflown the
queue, because ds->refreshing was never set to true. Possibly this
could be solved by determining a demuxer read position, which would
reflect until which PTS all subtitle packets should have been demuxed.
The forward buffer limit was intended as a last safeguard to avoid
excessive memory usage against badly interleaved files or decoders going
crazy (up to reading the whole into memory and OOM'ing the user's
system). It's not good at all to limit prefetch. Possibly solutions
include having another smaller limit for prefetch, or maybe having only
a total buffer limit, and discarding back buffer if more data has to be
read. The current solution is making the forward buffer larger than the
forward duration (--cache-secs) would require, but of course this
depends on the stream's bitrate.
The option for enabling it has now an "auto" choice, which is the
default, and which will enable it if the media is thought to be via
network or if the stream cache is enabled (same logic as --cache-secs).
Also bump the --cache-secs default from 10 to 120.
Some back buffer is required to make the immediate forward range
seekable. This is because the back buffer limit is strictly enforced.
Just set a rather high back buffer by default. It's not use if
--demuxer-seekable-cache is disabled, so this is without risk.
Limit the number of cached ranges to MAX_SEEK_RANGES, which is the same
number of maximally exported seek ranges. It makes no sense to keep
them, as the user won't see them anyway. Remove the smallest ones to
enforce the limit if the number grows too high.
Helps a little bit, I guess. But in general, t(h)rashing the cache kills
us anyway.
This has a fixed number of index entries. Entries are added/removed as
packets go through the packet queue. Only keyframes after index_distance
seconds are added. If there are too many keyframe packets, the existing
index is reduced by half, and index_distance is doubled. This should
provide somewhat even spacing between the entries.
The packet queue is sorted, so we can stop the search if we have found a
packet, and the next packet in the queue has a higher PTS than the seek
PTS (for the sake of SEEK_FORWARD, we still consider the first packet
with a higher PTS).
Also, as a mostly cosmetic change, but which might be "faster", check
target for NULL, instead of target_diff for a magic float value.
Subtitle streams are sparse, and no overlap is required to correctly
join two cached ranges. This was not correctly handled iff the two
ranges had different subtitle packets close to the join point.
demux_add_packet() must completely ignore any packets that are added
while a queued seek is not initiated yet.
The main issue is that after setting in->seeking==true, the central lock
is released, and it can take "a while" until it's reacquired on the
demux thread and the seek is actually initiated. During that time,
packets could be read and added, that have nothing to do with the new
state.
If subtitles are part of the stream, determining the seekable range
becomes harder. Subtitles are sparse, and can have packets in irregular
intervals, or even completely lack packets. The usual logic of computing
the seek range by the min/max packet timestamps fails.
Solve this by making the only assumption we can make: subtitle packets
are implicitly demuxed along with other packets. We also assume perfect
interleaving for this, but you really can't do anything with sparse
packets that makes sense without this assumption.
One special case is if we prune sparse packets within the current
seekable range. Obviously this should limit the seekable range to after
the pruned packet.
Instead of weirdly deciding this on every packet read and having the
code far away from where it's actually needed, just run it where it's
actually needed.
A typical idiom for calling functions that remove something from the
array being iterated, but it's not needed here. I have no idea why this
was ever done.
Setting ds->refreshing for unselected streams could lead to a
nonsensical queue overflow warning, because read_packet() took it as a
reason to continue reading.
Also add some more information to the queue overflow warning (even if
that one doesn't have anything to do with this bug - it was for
unselected streams only).
This fixes an endless loop with threading disabled, such as for example
when playing a file with an external subtitle file, and seeking to the
beginning. Something will set in->seeking, but the seek is never
executed, which made demux_read_packet() loop endlessly. (External
subtitles will use non-threaded mode for whatever reasons.)
Fix this by by making the unthreaded code to execute the worker thread
body, which reduces the difference in logic.
Until now, the demuxer cache was limited to a single range. Extend this
to multiple range. Should be useful for slow network streams.
This commit changes a lot in the internal demuxer cache logic, so
there's a lot of room for bugs and regressions. The logic without
demuxer cache is mostly untouched, but also involved with the code
changes. Or in other words, this commit probably fucks up shit.
There are two things which makes multiple cached ranges rather hard:
1. the need to resume the demuxer at the end of a cached range when
seeking to it
2. joining two adjacent ranges when the lowe range "grows" into it (and
resuming the demuxer at the end of the new joined range)
"Resuming" the demuxer means that we perform a low level seek to the end
of a cached range, and properly append new packets to it, without adding
packets multiple times or creating holes due to missing packets.
Since audio and video never line up exactly, there is no clean "cut"
possible, at which you could resume the demuxer cleanly (for 1.) or
which you could use to detect that two ranges are perfectly adjacent
(for 2.). The way how the demuxer interleaves multiple streams is also
unpredictable. Typically you will have to expect that it randomly allows
one of the streams to be ahead by a bit, and so on.
To deal with this, we have heuristics in place to detect when one packet
equals or is "behind" a packet that was demuxed earlier. We reuse the
refresh seek logic (used to "reread" packets into the demuxer cache when
enabling a track), which checks for certain packet invariants.
Currently, it observes whether either the raw packet position, or the
packet DTS is strictly monotonically increasing. If none of them are
true, we discard old ranges when creating a new one.
This heavily depends on the file format and the demuxer behavior. For
example, not all file formats have DTS, and the packet position can be
unset due to libavformat not always setting it (e.g. when parsers are
used).
At the same time, we must deal with all the complicated state used to
track prefetching and seek ranges. In some complicated corner cases, we
just give up and discard other seek ranges, even if the previously
mentioned packet invariants are fulfilled.
To handle joining, we're being particularly dumb, and require a small
overlap to be confident that two ranges join perfectly. (This could be
done incrementally with as little overlap as 1 packet, but corner cases
would eat us: each stream needs to be joined separately, and the cache
pruning logic could remove overlapping packets for other streams again.)
Another restriction is that switching the cached range will always
trigger an asynchronous low level seek to resume demuxing at the new
range. Some users might find this annoying.
Dealing with interleaved subtitles is not fully handled yet. It will
clamp the seekable range to where subtitle packets are.
libavcodec can't deal with them, because its API doesn't distinguish
between 0 sized packets and sending EOF. As such, keeping them doesn't
do any good, ever. This actually fixes some obscure mkv sample (see
previous commit).
Fixes some obscure sample that uses fixed size laces with 0-sized lace
size. Some broken shit. (Maybe the decoder wouldn't care about these
packets, but the demuxer attempted to resync after these packet reading
errors, even though they were perfectly recoverable. But I don't care
enough about this.)
Sample link: https://samples.ffmpeg.org/Matroska/switzler084d_dl.mkv
This directly reads individual mkv sub-packets (block laces) into a
dedicated AVBufferRefs, which can be directly used for creating packets
without a additional copy of the packet data. This also means we switch
parsing of block header fields and lacing metadata to read directly from
the stream, instead of a memory buffer.
This could have been much easier if libavcodec didn't require padding
the packet data with zero bytes. We could just have each packet
reference a slice of the block data. But as it is, the only way to get
padding without a copy is to read the laces into individually allocated
(and padded) memory block, which required a larger rewrite.
This probably makes recovering from broken mkv files slightly worse if
the transport is unseekable. We just read, and then check if we've
overread. But I think that shouldn't be a real concern.
No actual measureable performance change. Potential for some
regressions, as this is quite intrusive, and touches weird obscure shit
like mkv lacing. Still keeping it because I like how it removes some
redundant EBML parsing functions.
This adds a bunch of stuff (mostly unused or redundant) as preparation
for supporting multiple seek ranges. Actual support is probably still
far away.
One change that messes deeper with the actual code is that we account
for total buffered bytes instead of just the backwards bytes now. This
way, prune_old_packets() doesn't have to iterate over all seek ranges to
determine whether something needs pruning.
The main purpose of this commit is avoiding any hidden O(n^2) algorithms
in the code for pruning the demuxer cache, and for determining the
seekable boundaries of the cache. The old code could loop over the whole
packet queue on every packet pruned in certain corner cases.
There are two ways how to reach the goal:
1) commit a cardinal sin
2) do everything incrementally
The cardinal sin is adding an extra field to demux_packet, which caches
the determined seekable range for a keyframe range. demux_packet is a
rather general data structure and thus shouldn't have any fields that
are not inherent to its use, and are only needed as an implementation
detail of code using it. But what are you gonna do, sue me?
In the future, demux.c might have its own packet struct though. Then the
other existing cardinal sin (the "next" field, from MPlayer times) could
be removed as well.
This commit also changes slightly how the seek end is determined. There
is a note on the manpage in case anyone finds the new behavior
confusing. It's somewhat cleaner and might be needed for supporting
multiple ranges (although that's unclear).
The demuxer cache seeking mechanism looks at keyframe ranges to
determine the earlierst PTS of a packet. Instead of looping over all
packets twice (once to find the next keyframe, a second time to find the
seek PTS), do it in one go.
For that basically turn recompute_keyframe_target_pts() into an
iteration functionn. Functionality should be unchanged with this commit.
The base_ts field is used to guess the decoder position, and when set to
NOPTS, it just read ahead arbitrarily. Also demux_add_packet() sets
base_ts to the new timestamp when appending a packet, which would also
make it readahead by a too large amount.
Fix this by setting base_ts after a seek. This assumes that normally, a
cached seek target will always have the timestamp set. This is actually
not quite clear (as it calls recompute_keyframe_target_pts(), which
looks at multiple packets), but maybe it works well enough.
Don't do any of the extra work related to pruning the backbuffer if
demuxer cache seeking is disabled.
As a small extra, always prune packets with no timestamps immediately,
or queue heads that are not keyframes. (Both of them would be pruned
from the backbuffer by the normal logic anyway.)
If fulfilling --demuxer-readahead-secs requires more memory than allowed
by --demuxer-max-bytes, the queue obviously overflows. But the warning
is normally only for the case when trying to find the next video or
audio packet fails, and decoding can't continue.
Use a separate variable for determining whether to prefetch, and if the
queue has overflown, skip the message. In fact, skip the EOF setting and
waking up the decoder thread as well, because the EOF flag should not be
(have been) set in this situation, and waking up the reader thread helps
only if the EOF state changed.
In a shit show of subtle corner case interactions, making the demuxer
cache buffer the entire file can display a small buffered time if
subtitles are enabled. The reason is that some subtitle decoders may
read in advance infinitely, i.e. they read the entire subtitle stream.
Then, since the other streams (audio/video) have logically reached EOF,
and the subtitle stream is set to ds->active==true. This will have to be
fixed properly later to account buffering for subtitle-only files
(another corner case) correctly, but for now this is less annoying.
We don't hope to auto-detect them at load time, as that would be too
much of a pain - even FFmpeg requires fetching and parsing of video
packets, and exposes the information only via deprecated API.
But there still needs to be a way to select them by default. This is
also needed to get the first CC packet at all (without seeking back).
This commit also attempts to clean up locking a bit, which is a PITA,
but it's better be careful & clean.
Even though only 1 seek range is supported at the time.
Other than preparation for possibly future features, the main gain is
actually that we finally separate the reporting for the buffering, and
the seek ranges. These can be subtly different, so it's good to have a
clear separation.
This commit also fixes that the ts_reader wasn't rebased to the start
time, which could make the player show "???" for buffered cache amount
in some .ts files and others (especially at the end, when ts_reader
could become higher than ts_max). It also fixes writing the cache-end
field in the demuxer-cache-state property: it checked ts_start against
NOPTS, which makes no sense.
ts_start was never used (except for the bug mentioned above), so get rid
of it completely. This also makes it convenient to move the segment
check for last_ts to the demux_add_packet() function.
It isn't all that reliable, and improving it would make startup slower
and require more complexity. There isn't even a good reason to do this
(other than semi-broken mkv files), so don't do it. Also see previous
commit.
Avoids that cache seeking is not possible with files that have audio
frames with no timestamps (such as avi, sometimes mkv sub-packets from
lacing). These would set back_pts (first seekable PTS) to NOPTS, and
thus disable cache seeking completely. Instead, prune such packets until
we find one with timestamps.
One corner case is that the new next good packet might be in the forward
cache. In this case we defer dropping until the next time this code is
run, and the reader position has possibly moved past the drop point.
In theory, start/ts_min could be set to NOPTS, in which case
"pts < start" for a valid pts would always evaluate to false.
Also remove the redundant "in-cache seek is possible.." message, as
there's always another message when cache seeks are done.
The seek range computation ignored streams with no timestamps. For
things like buffer estimation this is OK and wanted, but the seek range
needs to be conservative.
Which parts of the queue are considered forward or backward cache
depends on ds->reader_header. The packet at ds->reader_head, as well as
all packets following it (via the ->next field) are considered forward.
The fw_packs/fw_bytes/bw_bytes must be updated accordingly.
This broke in demux_add_packet(), when ds->reader_head was _not_ set on
the first packet (or before). This could happen since commit
05ae571241, which can require skipping packets (so they immediately end
up in the backbuffer).
With the timeline code, a packet at the start or end of a segment can
refer to an invisible frame. So it doesn't extend the seek range, and
the timestamp should be clipped to the actual segment range.
Also restructure recompute_keyframe_target_pts() to be hopefully less
confusing.
Restores some behavior from before the demuxer cache changes, though
affects mostly just OSD display. The unknown queue state is reserved for
streams with missing or messed up timestamps.
Fully fixes behavior of the files mentioned in the previous commit. Will
probably lead to worse behavior if someone tries to fix real video and
cover art tracks, but that's a broken fringe case anyway.
This fixes .cue files with audio files that contain attached pictures to
some degree. demux_timeline.c just discarded packets with unset index,
so the picture was never fed to the decoder.
Directory-opening never worked on Windows because MSVCRT's open()
doesn't open directories and its fstat() doesn't recognise directory
handles. These are just MSVCRT restrictions, and the Windows API itself
has no problem with opening directories as file objects, so reimplement
mpv's mp_open and mp_stat to use the Windows API directly. This should
fix directory playback.
This also populates the st_dev and st_ino fields of struct stat, so
filesystem loop checking in demux_playlist.c should now work on Windows.
Fixes#4711
The new_segment field was used to track the decoder data flow handler of
timeline boundaries, which are used for ordered chapters etc. (anything
that sets demuxer_desc.load_timeline). This broke seeking with the
demuxer cache enabled. The demuxer is expected to set the new_segment
field after every seek or segment boundary switch, so the cached packets
basically contained incorrect values for this, and the decoders were not
initialized correctly.
Fix this by getting rid of the flag completely. Let the decoders instead
compare the segment information by content, which is hopefully enough.
(In theory, two segments with same information could perhaps appear in
broken-ish corner cases, or in an attempt to simulate looping, and such.
I preferred the simple solution over others, such as generating unique
and stable segment IDs.)
We still add a "segmented" field to make it explicit whether segments
are used, instead of doing something silly like testing arbitrary other
segment fields for validity.
Cached seeking with timeline stuff is still slightly broken even with
this commit: the seek logic is not aware of the overlap that segments
can have, and the timestamp clamping that needs to be performed in
theory to account for the fact that a packet might contain a frame that
is always clipped off by segment handling. This can be fixed later.
Needed for a failed thing, leaving it anyway because it causes no harm
and might be less awkward if struct virtual_stream is possibly extended
anyway in the future.
Although seeking past the cached range will trigger a low level seek, a
seek into the region between cache end and last video key frame would
simply seek to the video key frame. This meant that you could get
"stuck" at the end of the file instead of terminating playback when
trying to seek past the end.
One change is that we fix this by _actually_ allowing SEEK_FORWARD to
seek past the last video keyframe in find_seek_target().
In that case, or otherwise seeking to cache buffer end, it could happen
that we set ds->reader_head=NULL if the seek target is after the current
packet. We allow this, because the end of the cached region is defined
by the existence of "any" packet, not necessarily a key frame. Seeking
there still makes sense, because we know that there is going to be more
packets (or EOF) that satisfy the seek target.
The problem is that just resuming demuxing with reader_head==NULL will
simply return any packets that come its way, even non-keyframe ones.
Some decoders will produce ugly soup in this case. (In practice, this
was not a problem, because seeking at the end of the cached region was
rare before this commit, and also some decoders like h264 will skip
broken frames by default anyway.)
So the other change of this commit is to enable key frame skipping.
As a nasty implementation detail, we use a separate flag, instead of
setting reader_head to the first key frame encounted (reader_head being
NULL can happen after a normal seek or on playback start, and then we
want to mirror the underlying demuxer behavior, for better or worse).
This change is relatively untested, so you get to keep the pieces for
yourself.
Seems like most code dealing with this was for setting it in redundant
cases. Now SEEK_BACKWARD is redundant, and SEEK_FORWARD is the odd one
out.
Also fix that SEEK_FORWARD was not correctly unset in try_seek_cache().
In demux_mkv_seek(), make the arbitrary decision that a video stream is
not required for the subtitle prefetch logic to be active. We might want
subtitles with long duration even with audio only playback, or if the
file is used as external subtitle.
If a packet uses segmentation, the codec field must be set. Copying the
codec field was forgotten as an oversight, which is why this just
crashes. This showed up only now, because demux_copy_packet() was not
used before in the main demux path until recently.
Fixes#5027.
This improves upon the previous commit, and partially rewrites it (and
other code). It does:
- disable the seeking within cache by default, and add an option to
control it
- mess with the buffer estimation reporting code, which will most likely
lead to funny regressions even if the new features are not enabled
- add a back buffer to the packet cache
- enhance the seek code so you can seek into the back buffer
- unnecessarily change a bunch of other stuff for no reason
- fuck up everything and vomit ponies and rainbows
This should actually be pretty usable. One thing we should add are some
properties to report the proper buffer state. Then the OSC could show a
nice buffer range. Also configuration of the buffers could be made
simpler. Once this has been tested enough, it can be enabled by default,
and might replace the stream cache's byte ringbuffer.
In addition it may or may not be possible to keep other buffer ranges
when seeking outside of the current range, but that would be much more
complex.
More the ignore_eof field to the internal demux_stream struct. This is
relatively messy, because the internal struct exists only once the
stream is created, and after that setting the ignore_eof flag is a race
condition. We could bother with adding demux_add_sh_stream() parameters
for this, but let's not. So in theory a tiny race condition is
introduced, which can never be triggered since all demux API functions
are called by the playback thread only anyway.
Fix that ts_offset is accessed without log (this was introduced much
earlier by myself).
Introduce an alternative way of avoiding the annoying EOF reached
messages by not resetting the EOF flags for CC streams when a CC packet
is added. This makes the second commit in the PR which added the
original fix unnecessary.
As another cosmetic change merge the check in cached_demux_control()
into a single if().
In the future, the CC pseudo-stream should probably be replaced with an
entire pseudo-demuxer or such, which would avoid some of the messiness
(or maybe not, we don't know yet).
iive agreed to relicense things that are still in mpv to LGPLv2.1. So
change the licenses of the affected files, and rename the configure
switch for LGPL mode to --enable-preliminary-lgpl2.
(The "preliminary" part will probably be removed from the configure
switch soon as well.)
Also player/main.c hasn't had GPL parts since a few commits ago.
See "Copyright" file for caveats.
This changes the remaining "almost LGPL" files to LGPL, because we think
that the conditions the author set for these was finally fulfilled.
This adds handling of spherical video metadata: retrieving it from
demux_lavf and demux_mkv, passing it through filters, and adjusting it
with vf_format. This does not include support for rendering this type of
video.
We don't expect we need/want to support the other projection types like
cube maps, so we don't include that for now. They can be added later as
needed.
Also raise the maximum sizes of stringified image params, since they
can get really long.
If --demuxer-mkv-probe-start-time=no is used, and a seek is triggered on
start, then cluster_start will be 0, and the packet reading code will
print an error message about not finding valid data. This fixes itself
since it invokes the resync code, but it's still pretty ugly. Avoid this
by always initializing cluster_start.
This currently is only limited to Android. Its stdlib contains the
things that mpv's POSIX check checks for, but unfortunately not
glob().
This fixes Android compilation broken in 70a70b9da .
It seems like adjusting the raw stream ID should be done only for DVD.
Otherwise, getting the subtitle language for Bluray breaks.
Untested. Regression since fb9a32977d.
Fixes#4611 (probably).
This API isn't deprecated (yet?), but it's still inferior and harder to
use than avcodec_free_context().
Leave the call only in 1 case in af_lavcac3enc.c, where we apparently
seriously close and reopen the encoder for whatever reason.
Was at least somewhat broken, and is misleading. I don't really have an
idea why FFmpeg has two AVOptions here anyway. We don't need to care,
and I'm only aware of 1 user trying this option ever.
See #4579.
The first time I saw a user try to use this option, and apparently it
didn't work. I'm not exactly sure why, but the code seems to be broken
anyway. Apart from not doing any error checking (neither mallocs nor
warning the user against invalid input), it forgets to add a 0
terminator.
Use the corresponding AVOption instead, which probably works.
See #4579.
All relevant authors have agreed.
I'm removing the NV12 FourCC, which was added in f910f3d9 by someone who
was not contacted for the relicensing. I doubt the remaining code is
copyrightable (basically all what remains the fact is that NV12 uses the
same amount of space like YV12), but in this case I feel more
comfortable removing it.
Might contain some trace amounts of "michael"'s copyright, who agrees
with LGPL only once the core is relicensed - but with the core already
mostly relicensed, I'm changing the license header to LGPL, and only
marking this in the "Copyright" file.
cehoyos, who did not agree to the relicensing, added bcb5c78ce3. If
there was copyright, we consider it gone, because the table changed. It
does not map file extension to a FourCC anymore, and codecs.conf is
gone. The new mapping is a libavcodec codec name (happens to be the same
as the file extension).
The same applies to commits 60ecafec, b749836b, 5b3e3be1. None of these
authors were contacted. These were before the code was replaced with a
table (in d0326807). The parts outside of demux_mf.c were removed a long
time ago. Like in the previous comment, we don't think any copyright
applies at least to the new code (at least after the FourCC removal).
iive authored 0aa37a0d, which is probably still left in some form, and
makes demux_mf.c "LGPL 3 or later".
stream_avdevice.c (unrelated) has been marked as LGPL before.
- Fix a signed/unsigned comparison involving info.segment_uid.len
(doesn't actually warn here, but seems fragile). Code was previously
safe though.
- Match up all printf format strings with the respective value types,
using the *int*_t printf specifiers where necessary, and fixing
multiple signed/unsigned differences. Removed some casts that
otherwise may have truncated values.
- Fix a warning when initializing ebml_info.
On some platforms, unsigned long and uint64_t aren't the same type,
after all. As this is just a MP_VERBOSE message, risking truncation in
some cases seems OK.
As usual, the history of these files is a bit murky. It starts with the
initial commit. (At which some development had already been done,
according to the AUTHORS and ChangeLog files at the time, we should be
but covered with relicensing agreements, though.) then it goes on with
complete lack of modularization, which was cleaned up later (cd68e161).
As usual, we don't consider the copyright of the stuff that has been
moved out cleanly.
There were also contributions to generic code by people who could not be
reached or who did not agree to the relicensing, but this was all
removed.
The only patches that we could not relicense and which were still in the
current code in some form are from Dénes Balatoni: 422b0d2a, 32937181.
We could not reach him, so commits f34e1a0d and 18905298 remove his
additions. It still leaves the demux_control() declaration itself, but
we don't consider it copyrightable. It's basically an idiom that existed
in MPlayer before that change, applied to the demuxer struct. (We even
went as far as making sure to remove all DEMUXER_CTRLs the original
author added.)
Commit be54f481 might be a bit of a corner case, but this was rewritten,
and we consider the old copyright removed long ago.
Similar purpose as f34e1a0dee.
Somehow this is much more natural too, and needs less code.
This breaks runtime updates to duration. This could easily be fixed, but
no important demuxer does this anyway. Only demux_raw and demux_disc
might (the latter for BD/DVD). For the latter it might actually have
some importance when changing titles at runtime (I guess?), but guess
what, I don't care.
This is more uniform, and potentially gets rid of some past copyrights.
It might be that this subtly changes caching behavior (it seems before
this, it synced to the demuxer if the length was unknown, which is not
what we want.)
MaxCLL is the more authoritative source for the metadata we are
interested in. The use of mastering metadata is sort of a hack anyway,
since there's no clearly-defined relationship between the mastering peak
brightness and the actual content. (Unlike MaxCLL, which is an explicit
relationship)
Also move the parameter fixing to `fix_image_params`
I don't know if the avutil check is strictly necessary but I've included
it anyway to be on the safe side.
