This was used by some VOs to do timing of cursor autohiding, but we
recently moved that out of the VOs. Even though this mechanism might
be a good idea and could be needed again in future (but for what?),
it's unused now. So better just get rid of it.
Use VOCTRL_CHECK_EVENTS instead. Change the remaining VOs to use it.
Only vo_sdl and vo_caca actually need this, and vo_null, vo_lavc, and
vo_image had stubs only.
Instead of having separate callbacks for each backend-handled feature
(like MPGLContext.fullscreen, MPGLContext.border, etc.), pass the
VOCTRL responsible for this directly to the backend. This allows
removing a bunch of callbacks, that currently must be set even for
optional/lesser features (like VOCTRL_BORDER).
This requires changes to all VOs using gl_common, as well as all
backends that support gl_common.
Also introduce VOCTRL_CHECK_EVENTS. vo.check_events is now optional.
VO backends can use VOCTRL_CHECK_EVENTS instead to implementing
check_events. This has the advantage that the event handling code in
VOs doesn't have to be duplicated if vo_control() is used.
Allows playing video with alpha information on X11, as long as the video
contains alpha and the window manager does compositing. See vo.rst.
Whether a window can be transparent is decided by the choice of the X
Visual used for window creation. Unfortunately, there's no direct way to
request such a Visual through the GLX or the X API, and use of the
XRender extension is required to find out whether a Visual implies a
framebuffer with alpha used by XRender (see for example [1]). Instead of
depending on the XRender wrapper library (which would require annoying
configure checks, even though XRender is virtually always supported),
use a simple heuristics to find out whether a Visual has alpha. Since
getting it wrong just means an optional feature will not work as
expected, we consider this ok.

gl_video.c contains all rendering code, gl_lcms.c the .icc loader and
creation of 3D LUT (and all LittleCMS specific code). vo_opengl.c is
reduced to interfacing between the various parts.
Remove lots of weird logic and dead code.
The only difference is that when specifying a monitor aspect ratio, it
will always upscale and never downscale.
Separate the video output options from the big MPOpts structure and also only
pass the new mp_vo_opts structure to the vo backend.
Move video_driver_list into mp_vo_opts
Removes almost every global variabel in vo.h and puts them in a special struct
in MPOpts for video output related options.
Also we completly remove the options/globals pts and refresh rate because
they were unused.
When paused, --cursor-autohide worked with a precision of 500ms, which
is the main loop's default sleep time when paused. Cursor hiding is
polled in x11_common, and the main loop never called the X11 code at
the right time. Fix this by allowing the VO to set a time when it
should be called next.
Store the window state (position and size) in vo_x11_state, instead of
in vo->dx/dy/dwidth/dheight. The VO variables are overwritten by vo.c on
every vo_config() call, which is extremely not helpful.
Now vo->dx/dy are mostly unused (except for passing the position forced
by the --geometry option), and vo->dwidth/dheight are set for the VO,
and otherwise read for resize detection only.
In the long term, the way vo_config() handles the --geometry option
should be changed, and vo->dx/dy should be removed.
Remove some useless stuff: VO_EVENT_MOVE and VO_EVENT_KEYPRESS were
generated, but unused. Wayland changes by Alexander Preisinger.
It was once used for vo_sdl (the old one based on SDL 1.2), since SDL
apparently lost the GL state when switching to fullscreen. The new
vo_sdl (using SDL 1.3) doesn't use or need this. It's dead code, so
get rid of it.
VFCAP_OSD was used to determine at runtime whether the VO supports OSD
rendering. This was mostly unused. vo_direct3d had an option to disable
OSD (was supposed to allow to force auto-insertion of vf_ass, but we
removed that anyway). vo_opengl_old could disable OSD rendering when a
very old OpenGL version was detected, and had an option to explicitly
disable it as well.
Remove VFCAP_OSD from everything (and some associated logic). Now the
vo_driver.draw_osd callback can be set to NULL to indicate missing OSD
support (important so that vo_null etc. don't single-step on OSD
redraw), and if OSD support depends on runtime support, the VO's
draw_osd should just do nothing if OSD is not available.
Also, do not access vo->want_redraw directly. Change the want_redraw
reset logic for this purpose, too. (Probably unneeded, vo_flip_page
resets it already.)
All wayland only specific routines are placed in wayland_common.
This makes it easier to write other video outputs.
The EGL specific parts, as well as opengl context creation, are in gl_common.
This backend works for:
* opengl-old
* opengl
* opengl-hq
To use it just specify the opengl backend
--vo=opengl:backend=wayland
or disable the x11 build.
Don't forget to set EGL_PLATFORM to wayland.

This allowed making the player switch the monitor video mode when
creating the video window. This was a questionable feature, and with
today's LCD screens certainly not useful anymore. Switching to a random
video mode (going by video width/height) doesn't sound too useful
either.
I'm not sure about the win32 implementation, but the X part had several
bugs. Even in mplayer-svn (where x11_common.c hasn't been receiving any
larger changes for a long time), this code is buggy and doesn't do the
right thing anyway. (And what the hell _did_ it do when using multiple
physical monitors?)
If you really want this, write a shell script that calls xrandr before
and after calling mpv.
vo_sdl still can do mode switching, because SDL has native support for
it, and using it is trivial. Add a new sub-option for this.
You can just use --wid=0 if you really want this.
This only worked/works for X11, and even then it might interact badly
with most desktop environments. All the option did was setting --wid to
0, and the property did nothing.
mpv -ao help and mpv -vo help shouldn't show the encoding outputs (named
"lavc" on both cases). Also make it impossible to select these manually
when not encoding.
mplayer's video chain traditionally used FourCCs for pixel formats. For
example, it used IMGFMT_YV12 for 4:2:0 YUV, which was defined to the
string 'YV12' interpreted as unsigned int. Additionally, it used to
encode information into the numeric values of some formats. The RGB
formats had their bit depth and endian encoded into the least
significant byte. Extended planar formats (420P10 etc.) had chroma
shift, endian, and component bit depth encoded. (This has been removed
in recent commits.)
Replace the FourCC mess with a simple enum. Remove all the redundant
formats like YV12/I420/IYUV. Replace some image format names by
something more intuitive, most importantly IMGFMT_YV12 -> IMGFMT_420P.
Add img_fourcc.h, which contains the old IDs for code that actually uses
FourCCs. Change the way demuxers, that output raw video, identify the
video format: they set either MP_FOURCC_RAWVIDEO or MP_FOURCC_IMGFMT to
request the rawvideo decoder, and sh_video->imgfmt specifies the pixel
format. Like the previous hack, this is supposed to avoid the need for
a complete codecs.cfg entry per format, or other lookup tables. (Note
that the RGB raw video FourCCs mostly rely on ffmpeg's mappings for NUT
raw video, but this is still considered better than adding a raw video
decoder - even if trivial, it would be full of annoying lookup tables.)
The TV code has not been tested.
Some corrective changes regarding endian and other image format flags
creep in.
VFCAP_TIMER disables any additional waiting done by mpv in the
playloop. Remove VFCAP_TIMER, but re-use the idea for vo_image and
vo_lavc.
This means --untimed doesn't have to be passed when using --vo=image.
Change the entire filter API to use reference counted images instead
of vf_get_image().
Remove filter "direct rendering". This was useful for vf_expand and (in
rare cases) vf_sub: DR allowed these filters to pass a cropped image to
the filters before them. Then, on filtering, the image was "uncropped",
so that black bars could be added around the image without copying. This
means that in some cases, vf_expand will be slower (-vf gradfun,expand
for example).
Note that another form of DR used for in-place filters has been replaced
by simpler logic. Instead of trying to do DR, filters can check if the
image is writeable (with mp_image_is_writeable()), and do true in-place
if that's the case. This affects filters like vf_gradfun and vf_sub.
Everything has to support strides now. If something doesn't, making a
copy of the image data is required.
vdpau hardware decoding used the DR (direct rendering) path to let the
decoder query a surface from the VO. Special-case the HW decoding path
instead, to make it separate from DR.
Slices allowed filtering or drawing video in horizontal bands or
blocks. This allowed working on the video in smaller units. In theory,
this could bring a performance win by lowering cache pressure, as you
didn't have to keep the whole video frame in cache while filtering,
only the slice.
In practice, the slice code path was barely used for the following
reasons:
- Multithreaded decoding with ffmpeg didn't use slices. The ffmpeg
slice callback was disabled, because it can be called from another
thread, and the mplayer video chain is not thread-safe.
- There was nothing that would turn "full" images into appropriate
slices, so slices were rarely used.
- Most filters didn't actually support slices.
On the other hand, supporting slices lead to code duplication and more
complex code in general. I made some experiments and didn't find any
actual measurable performance improvements when using slices. Even
ffmpeg removed slices based filtering from libavfilter in favor of
simpler code.
The most broken thing about the slices code path is that slices can't
be queued, like it is done for images in vo.c.
For some reason, libavcodec abuses the slices rendering code path for
hardware decoding: in that case, the only purpose of the draw callback
is to pass a vdpau video surface object to video output. (It is unclear
to me why this had to use the slices code, instead of just returning an
AVFrame with the required vdpau state.)
Make this code separate within mpv, so that the internal slices code
path is not used for hardware decoding. Pass the vdpau state with
VOCTRL_HWDEC_DECODER_RENDER instead.
Remove the mencoder specific VOCTRLs.
Remove VOCTRL_DRAW_IMAGE and always set vo_driver.draw_image in VOs.
Make draw_image mandatory: change some VOs (like vo_x11) to support it,
and remove the image-to-slices fallback in vf_vo.
Remove vo_driver.is_new. This member indicated whether draw_image is
supported unconditionally, which is now always the case.
draw_image_pts is a hack until the video filter chain is changed to
include the PTS as field in mp_image. Then vo_vdpau and vo_lavc will
be changed to use draw_image.
This is better than having just the operating system type decide the
wakeup period, as e.g. when compiling for Win32/cygwin, a wakeup period
of 0.5 would work perfectly fine.
Instead, the default wakeup period is now only decided by availability
of a working select() system call (which is the case on cygwin but not
mingw and MSVC) AND a vo that can provide an event file descriptor or a
similar hack (vo_corevideo). vos that cannot do either need polling for
event handling and now can set the wakeup period to 0.02 in the vo code.
The -zoom option enabled scaling with vo_x11. Remove the -zoom option,
and make its behavior default. Since vo_x11 has to use libswscale for
colorspace conversion anyway, which doesn't do actual extra scaling when
vo_x11 is run in windowed mode, there should be no speed difference with
this change.
The code removed from vf_scale attempted to scale the video to d_width/
d_height, which matters for anamorphic video and the --xy option only.
vo_x11 can handle these natively. The only case for which the removed
vf_scale code could matter is encoding with vo_lavc, but since that
didn't set VOFLAG_SWSCALE, nothing actually changes.
Finish renaming directories and moving files. Adjust all include
statements to make the previous commit compile.
The two commits are separate, because git is bad at tracking renames
and content changes at the same time.
Also take this as an opportunity to remove the separation between
"common" and "mplayer" sources in the Makefile. ("common" used to be
shared between mplayer and mencoder.)
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
