By default utilizes the color space of the desktop on which the
swap chain is located. If a specific value is defined, it will be
instead be utilized.
Enables configuration of the PQ color space (BT.2020 primaries,
PQ transfer function) for HDR.
Additionally, signals the swap chain color space to the renderer,
so that the render looks correct without having to specify
target-trc or target-prim manually.
Due to all of the APIs being Win10+ only, will only work starting
with Windows 10.
Internally, vo_gpu uses NaN for some options to indicate a default value
that is different depending on the context (e.g. different scalers).
There are 2 problems with this:
1. you couldn't reset the options to their defaults
2. NaN is a damn mess and shouldn't be part of the API
The option parser already rejected NaN explicitly, which is why 1.
didn't work. Regarding 2., JSON might be a good example, and actually
caused a bug report.
Fix this by mapping NaN to the special value "default". I think I'd
prefer other mechanisms (maybe just having every scaler expose separate
options?), but for now this will do. See you in a future commit, which
painfully deprecates this and replaces it with something else.
I refrained from using "no" (my favorite magic value for "unset" etc.)
because then I'd have e.g. make --no-scale-param1 work, which in
addition to a lot of effort looks dumb and nobody will use it.
Here's also an apology for the shitty added test script.
Fixes: #6691
Query information on the system output most linked to the swap chain,
and either utilize a user-configured format, or either 8bit
RGBA or 10bit RGB with 2bit alpha depending on the system output's
bit depth.
Another thing nobody will read. I'm attempting to document the rules by
which incompatible changes can be made. These rules have always been
present in this project, but I don't think they were written down. Or
maybe they were, but I forgot where.
I think due to the time of the day it became increasingly incoherent
(not necessarily near the end of the text). Hopefully no logical or
freudian lapses in there.
Although it was not true at the time this was written, both the
"program" and "cache-size" are gone now.
Since the changelog is for the entire next release, it makes no sense to
mention these removed properties.
It also happens to make the description of this much simpler, because
it's a non-issue now. It's probably not even worth mentioning anymore.
The justification for this is the fact that the `video-aspect` property
doesn't work well with `cycle_values` commands that include the value
"-1".
The "video-aspect" property has effectively no change in behavior, but
we may want to make it read-only in the future. I think it's probably
fine to leave as-is, though.
Fixes#6068.
Has been deprecated for almost 3 years. Manpage didn't mention the
deprecation, but CLI and release notes did. It wouldn't be much effort
to keep this option working, but I just don't see the damn point.
--start/--end can specify chapters using special syntax, which is
equivalent.
Originally, vo_gpu/vo_opengl considered the case of Nvidia proprietary
drivers, which required vdpau/GLX, and Intel open source drivers, which
require vaapi/EGL. Since window creation and GPU context creation are
inseparable in mpv's internal API, it had to pick the correct API very
early, or hardware decoding wouldn't work. "x11probe" was introduced for
this reason. It created a GLX context (without showing the window yet),
and checked whether vdpau was available. If yes, it used GLX, if not, it
continued probing x11/EGL. (Obviously it couldn't always fail on GLX
without vdpau, which is why it was a separate "probe" backend.)
Years passed, and now the situation is different. Vdpau is dead. Nvidia
drivers and libavcodec now provide CUDA interop, which requires EGL, and
fixes some of the vdpau problems. AMD drivers now provide vaapi, which
generally works better than vdpau. Intel didn't change.
In particular, vaapi provides working HEVC Main10 support. In theory, it
should work on vdpau too, with quality reduction (no 10 bit surfaces),
but I couldn't get it to work.
So always prefer EGL. And suddenly hardware decoding works. This is
actually rather important, because HEVC is unfortunately on the rise,
despite shitty encoders and unoptimized decoders. The latter may mean
that hardware decoding works better than libavcodec.
This should have been done a long, long time ago.
The "program" property could switch between TS programs. It was rather
complex and rather obscure (even if you deal with TS captures, you
usually don't need it). If anyone actually needs it (did anyone ever
attempt to even use it?), it should be rewritten. The demuxer should
export a program list, and the frontend should handle the "cycling"
logic.
Linux analog TV support (via tv://) was excessively complex, and
whenever I attempted to use it (cameras or loopback devices), it didn't
work well, or would have required some major work to update it. It's
very much stuck in the analog past (my favorite are the frequency tables
in frequencies.c for analog TV channels which don't exist anymore).
Especially cameras and such work fine with libavdevice and better than
tv://, for example:
mpv av://v4l2:/dev/video0
(adding --profile=low-latency --untimed even makes it mostly realtime)
Adding a new input layer that targets such "modern" uses would be
acceptable, if anyone is interested in it. The old TV code is just too
focused on actual analog TV.
DVB is rather obscure, but has an active maintainer, so don't remove it.
However, the demux/stream ctrl layer must go, so remove controls for
channel switching. Most of these could be reimplemented by using the
normal method for option runtime changes.
This removes anything related to DVD/BD/CD that negatively affected the
core code. It includes trying to rewrite timestamps (since DVDs and
Blurays do not set packet stream timestamps to playback time, and can
even have resets mid-stream), export of chapters, stream languages,
export of title/track lists, and all that.
Only basic seeking is supported. It is very much possible that seeking
completely fails on some discs (on some parts of the timeline), because
timestamp rewriting was removed.
Note that I don't give a shit about optical media. If you want to watch
them, rip them. Keeping some bare support for DVD/BD is the most I'm
going to do to appease the type of lazy, obnoxious users who will care.
There are other players which are better at optical discs.
half of the materials we used were deprecated with macOS 10.14, broken
and not supported by run time changes of the macOS theme. furthermore
our styling names were completely inconsistent with the actually look
since macOS 10.14, eg ultradark got a lot brighter and couldn't be
considered ultradark anymore.
i decided to drop the old option --macos-title-bar-style and rework
the whole mechanism to allow more freedom. now materials and appearance
can be set separately. even if apple changes the look or semantics in
the future the new options can be easily adapted.
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.
In theory our "eye adaptation" algorithm works in both ways, both
darkening bright scenes and brightening dark scenes. But I've always
just prevented the latter with a hard clamp, since I wanted to avoid
blowing up dark scenes into looking funny (and full of noise).
But allowing a tiny bit of over-exposure might be a good thing. I won't
change the default just yet (better let users test), but a moderate
value of 1.2 might be better than the current 1.0 limit. Needs testing
especially on dark scenes.
The previous approach of using an FIR with tunable hard threshold for
scene changes had several problems:
- the FIR involved annoying hard-coded buffer sizes, high VRAM usage,
and the FIR sum was prone to numerical overflow which limited the
number of frames we could average over. We also totally redesign the
scene change detection.
- the hard scene change detection was prone to both false positives and
false negatives, each with their own (annoying) issues.
Scrap this entirely and switch to a dual approach of using a simple
single-pole IIR low pass filter to smooth out noise, while using a
softer scene change curve (with tunable low and high thresholds), based
on `smoothstep`. The IIR filter is extremely simple in its
implementation and has an arbitrarily user-tunable cutoff frequency,
while the smoothstep-based scene change curve provides a good, tunable
tradeoff between adaptation speed and stability - without exhibiting
either of the traditional issues associated with the hard cutoff.
Another way to think about the new options is that the "low threshold"
provides a margin of error within which we don't care about small
fluctuations in the scene (which will therefore be smoothed out by the
IIR filter).
Instead of desaturating towards luma, we desaturate towards the
per-channel tone mapped version. This essentially proves a smooth
roll-off towards the "hollywood"-style (non-chromatic) tone mapping
algorithm, which works better for bright content, while continuing to
use the "linear" style (chromatic) tone mapping algorithm for primarily
in-gamut content.
We also split up the desaturation algorithm into strength and exponent,
which allows users to use less aggressive desaturation settings without
affecting the overall curve.
This option has been deprecated upstream for a long time, probably
doesn't even work anymore, and won't work moving forwards as we replace
the vulkan code by libplacebo wrappers.
I haven't removed the option completely yet since in theory we could
still add support for e.g. a native glslang wrapper in the future. But
most likely the future of this code is deletion.
As an aside, fix an issue where the man page didn't mention d3d11.
This commit bumps the libmpv version to 1.102
drm-osd-plane -> drm-draw-plane
drm-video-plane -> drm-drmprime-video-plane
drm-osd-size -> drm-draw-surface-size
"draw plane", as in the plane that OpenGL draws to, whether it be
video + OSD or just OSD.
"drmprime video plane", as in the plane used for hwdec video imported
via drmprime.
"draw surface size", as in the size of the surface used for the draw plane
The new names are invariant whether or not hwdec_drmprime_drm is being
used or not. The original naming was very confusing, as when doing
regular rendering (swdec or vaapi) the video would be displayed on the
"OSD plane", and the "Video plane" would remain unused.
Add general primary/overlay plane option to drm-osd-plane-id and
drm-video-plane-id, so that the user can just request any usable
primary or overlay plane for either of these two options. This should
be somewhat more user-friendly (especially as neither of these two
options currently have a useful help function), as usually you would
only be interested in the type of the plane, and not exactly which
plane gets picked.
Since linear downscaling makes sense to handle independently from
linear/sigmoid upscaling, we split this option up. Now,
linear-downscaling is its own option that only controls linearization
when downscaling and nothing more. Likewise, linear-upscaling /
sigmoid-upscaling are two mutually exclusive options (the latter
overriding the former) that apply only to upscaling and no longer
implicitly enable linear light downscaling as well.
The old behavior was very confusing, as evidenced by issues such
as #6213. The current behavior should make much more sense, and only
minimally breaks backwards compatibility (since using linear-scaling
directly was very uncommon - most users got this for free as part of
gpu-hq and relied only on that).
Closes#6213.
The player fully restarts playback when the edition or disk title is
changed. Before this, the player tried to reinitialized playback
partially. For example, it did not print a new "Playing: <file>"
message, and did not send playback end to libmpv users (scripts or
applications).
This playback restart code was a bit messy and could have unforeseen
interactions with various state. There have been bugs before. Since it's
a mostly cosmetic thing for an obscure feature, just change it to a full
restart. This works well, though since it may have consequences for
scripts or client API users, mention it in interface-changes.rst.
Until now, stopping playback aborted the demuxer and I/O layer violently
by signaling mp_cancel (bound to libavformat's AVIOInterruptCB
mechanism). Change it to try closing them gracefully.
The main purpose is to silence those libavformat errors that happen when
you request termination. Most of libavformat barely cares about the
termination mechanism (AVIOInterruptCB), and essentially it's like the
network connection is abruptly severed, or file I/O suddenly returns I/O
errors. There were issues with dumb TLS warnings, parsers complaining
about incomplete data, and some special protocols that require server
communication to gracefully disconnect.
We still want to abort it forcefully if it refuses to terminate on its
own, so a timeout is required. Users can set the timeout to 0, which
should give them the old behavior.
This also removes the old mechanism that treats certain commands (like
"quit") specially, and tries to terminate the demuxers even if the core
is currently frozen. This is for situations where the core synchronized
to the demuxer or stream layer while network is unresponsive. This in
turn can only happen due to the "program" or "cache-size" properties in
the current code (see one of the previous commits). Also, the old
mechanism doesn't fit particularly well with the new one. We wouldn't
want to abort playback immediately on a "quit" command - the new code is
all about giving it a chance to end it gracefully. We'd need some sort
of watchdog thread or something equally complicated to handle this. So
just remove it.
The change in osd.c is to prevent that it clears the status line while
waiting for termination. The normal status line code doesn't output
anything useful at this point, and the code path taken clears it, both
of which is an annoying behavior change, so just let it show the old
one.
The player fully restarts playback when the edition or disk title is
changed. Before this, the player tried to reinitialized playback
partially. For example, it did not print a new "Playing: <file>"
message, and did not send playback end to libmpv users (scripts or

Before this change, only 1 command or so had named arguments. There is
no reason why other commands can't have them, except that it's a bit of
work to add them.
Commands with variable number of arguments are inherently incompatible
to named arguments, such as the "run" command. They still have dummy
names, but obviously you can't assign multiple values to a single named
argument (unless the argument has an array type, which would be
something different). For now, disallow using named argument APIs with
these commands. This might change later.
2 commands are adjusted to not need a separate default value by changing
flag constants. (The numeric values are C only and can't be set by
users.)
Make the command syntax in the manpage more consistent. Now none of the
allowed choice/flag names are in the command header, and all arguments
are shown with their proper name and quoted with <...>.
Some places in the manpage and the client.h doxygen are updated to
reflect that most commands support named arguments. In addition, try to
improve the documentation of the syntax and need for escaping etc. as
well.
(Or actually most uses of the word "argument" should be "parameter".)
I wanted to put all commands through mpv_command_node_async() instead of
mpv_command_node(). Using synchronous commands over a synchronous
transport doesn't make sense anyway.
This would have used the request_id field in IPC requests as reply ID
for the async commands. But the latter need to be [u]int64, while the
former can be any type. To avoid that we need an extra lookup table for
mapping reply IDs to request_id values, we now require that request_id
fields are integers.
Since this would be an incompatible change, just deprecate non-integers
for now, and plan the change for a later time.
Instead of using an internal counter to keep track of the value that was
set last, attempt to find the current value of the property/option in
the value list, and then set the next value in the list.
There are some potential problems. If a property refuses to accept a
specific value, the cycle-values command will fail, and start from the
same position again. It can't know that it's supposed to skip the next
value. The same can happen to properties which behave "strangely", such
as the "aspect" property, which will return the current aspect if you
write "-1" to it. As a consequence, cycle-values can appear to get
"stuck".
I still think the new behavior is what users expect more, and which is
generally more useful. We won't restore the ability to get the old
behavior, unless we decide to revert this commit entirely.
Fixes#5772, and hopefully other complaints.
Fundamentally, scripts are loaded asynchronously, but as a feature,
there was code to wait until a script is loaded (for a certain arbitrary
definition of "loaded"). This was done in scripting.c with the
wait_loaded() function.
This called mp_idle(), and since there are commands to load/unload
scripts, it meant the player core loop could be entered recursively. I
think this is a major complication and has some problems. For example,
if you had a script that does 'os.execute("sleep inf")', then every time
you ran a command to load an instance of the script would add a new
stack frame of mp_idle(). This would lead to some sort of reentrancy
horror that is hard to debug. Also misc/dispatch.c contains a somewhat
tricky mess to support such recursive invocations. There were also some
bugs due to this and due to unforeseen interactions with other messes.
This scripting stuff was the only thing making use of that reentrancy,
and future commands that have "logical" waiting for something should be
implemented differently. So get rid of it.
Change the code to wait only in the player initialization phase: the
only place where it really has to wait is before playback is started,
because scripts might want to set options or hooks that interact with
playback initialization. Unloading of builtin scripts (can happen with
e.g. "set osc no") is left asynchronous; the unloading wasn't too robust
anyway, and this change won't make a difference if someone is trying to
break it intentionally. Note that this is not in mp_initialize(),
because mpv_initialize() uses this by locking the core, which would have
the same problem.
In the future, commands which logically wait should use different
mechanisms. Originally I thought the current approach (that is removed
with this commit) should be used, but it's too much of a mess and can't
even be used in some cases. Examples are:
- "loadfile" should be made blocking (needs to run the normal player
code and manually unblock the thread issuing the command)
- "add-sub" should not freeze the player until the URL is opened (needs
to run opening on a separate thread)
Possibly the current scripting behavior could be restored once new
mechanisms exist, and if it turns out that anyone needs it.
With this commit there should be no further instances of recursive
playloop invocations (other than the case in the following commit),
since all mp_idle()/mp_wait_events() calls are done strictly from the
main thread (and not commands/properties or libmpv client API that
"lock" the main thread).
The first change is about spdif - I mostly ignore spdif issues these
days, but it seems like the recent changes made handling of it slightly
better (but I didn't really test).
The second change is about broken libavfilter filters. We won't restore
the old behavior, because people were complaining about the old behavior
in the past. Possibly we could make libavfilter export this was metadata
and use the old behavior if we know they're broken - but it doesn't
exist yet.
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.
The purpose of the new API is to make it useable with other APIs than
OpenGL, especially D3D11 and vulkan. In theory it's now possible to
support other vo_gpu backends, as well as backends that don't use the
vo_gpu code at all.
This also aims to get rid of the dumb mpv_get_sub_api() function. The
life cycle of the new mpv_render_context is a bit different from
mpv_opengl_cb_context, and you explicitly create/destroy the new
context, instead of calling init/uninit on an object returned by
mpv_get_sub_api().
In other to make the render API generic, it's annoyingly EGL style, and
requires you to pass in API-specific objects to generic functions. This
is to avoid explicit objects like the internal ra API has, because that
sounds more complicated and annoying for an API that's supposed to never
change.
The opengl_cb API will continue to exist for a bit longer, but
internally there are already a few tradeoffs, like reduced
thread-safety.
Mostly untested. Seems to work fine with mpc-qt.
This switches the default away from "bob" to the best algorithm reported
as supported by the driver. This is convenient for users, and there is
no reason to use something worse by default.
Untested.
Before this, we made deinterlacing dependent on the video codec metadata
(AVFrame.interlaced_frame for libavcodec). So even if --deinterlace=yes
was set, we skipped deinterlacing if the flag wasn't set. This is very
unreliable and there are many streams with flags incorrectly set.
The potential problem is that this might upset people who alwase enabled
deinterlace and hoped it worked. But it's likely these people were
screwed by this setting anyway. The new behavior is less tricky and
easier to understand, and this preferable. Maybe one day we could
introduce a --deinterlace=auto, which does the right thing, but of
course this would be hard to implement (esecially with hwdec).
Fixes#5219.
this is meant to replace the old and not properly working vo_gpu/opengl
cocoa backend in the future. the problems are various shortcomings of
Apple's opengl implementation and buggy behaviour in certain
circumstances that couldn't be properly worked around. there are also
certain regressions on newer macOS versions from 10.11 onwards.
- awful opengl performance with a none layer backed context
- huge amount of dropped frames with an early context flush
- flickering of system elements like the dock or volume indicator
- double buffering not properly working with a none layer backed context
- bad performance in fullscreen because of system optimisations
all the problems were caused by using a normal opengl context, that
seems somewhat abandoned by apple, and are fixed by using a layer backed
opengl context instead. problems that couldn't be fixed could be
properly worked around.
this has all features our old backend has sans the wid embedding,
the possibility to disable the automatic GPU switching and taking
screenshots of the window content. the first was deemed unnecessary by
me for now, since i just use the libmpv API that others can use anyway.
second is technically not possible atm because we have to pre-allocate
our opengl context at a time the config isn't read yet, so we can't get
the needed property. third one is a bit tricky because of deadlocking
and it needed to be in sync, hopefully i can work around that in the
future.
this also has at least one additional feature or eye-candy. a properly
working fullscreen animation with the native fs. also since this is a
direct port of the old backend of the parts that could be used, though
with adaptions and improvements, this looks a lot cleaner and easier to
understand.
some credit goes to @pigoz for the initial swift build support which
i could improve upon.

Get rid of the old vf.c code. Replace it with a generic filtering
framework, which can potentially handle more than just --vf. At least
reimplementing --af with this code is planned.
This changes some --vf semantics (including runtime behavior and the
"vf" command). The most important ones are listed in interface-changes.
vf_convert.c is renamed to f_swscale.c. It is now an internal filter
that can not be inserted by the user manually.
f_lavfi.c is a refactor of player/lavfi.c. The latter will be removed
once --lavfi-complex is reimplemented on top of f_lavfi.c. (which is
conceptually easy, but a big mess due to the data flow changes).
The existing filters are all changed heavily. The data flow of the new
filter framework is different. Especially EOF handling changes - EOF is
now a "frame" rather than a state, and must be passed through exactly
once.
Another major thing is that all filters must support dynamic format
changes. The filter reconfig() function goes away. (This sounds complex,
but since all filters need to handle EOF draining anyway, they can use
the same code, and it removes the mess with reconfig() having to predict
the output format, which completely breaks with libavfilter anyway.)
In addition, there is no automatic format negotiation or conversion.
libavfilter's primitive and insufficient API simply doesn't allow us to
do this in a reasonable way. Instead, filters can use f_autoconvert as
sub-filter, and tell it which formats they support. This filter will in
turn add actual conversion filters, such as f_swscale, to perform
necessary format changes.
vf_vapoursynth.c uses the same basic principle of operation as before,
but with worryingly different details in data flow. Still appears to
work.
The hardware deint filters (vf_vavpp.c, vf_d3d11vpp.c, vf_vdpaupp.c) are
heavily changed. Fortunately, they all used refqueue.c, which is for
sharing the data flow logic (especially for managing future/past
surfaces and such). It turns out it can be used to factor out most of
the data flow. Some of these filters accepted software input. Instead of
having ad-hoc upload code in each filter, surface upload is now
delegated to f_autoconvert, which can use f_hwupload to perform this.
Exporting VO capabilities is still a big mess (mp_stream_info stuff).
The D3D11 code drops the redundant image formats, and all code uses the
hw_subfmt (sw_format in FFmpeg) instead. Although that too seems to be a
big mess for now.
f_async_queue is unused.
Restores behaviour prior to aef2ed5dc1.
That change was apparently unpopular. However, given the amount of
complaining over how hard it is to change the defaults by rebinding every
key, I think the extra option introduced by this commit is justified.
Technically not all behaviour is restored, because now --no-osd-bar will
not instead display the msg text on seek. I think that feature was a
little weird and is now easy enough to remedy with the --osd-on-seek
option.
The future direction might be not having such a user-visible filter at
all, similar to how vf_scale went away (or actually, redirects to
libavfilter's vf_scale).
This is part of trying to get rid of --af-defaults, and the af
resample filter.
It requires a complicated mechanism to set the defaults on the resample
filter for backwards compatibility.
With the recent changes to the script it does not incur a startup delay
by default due to starting youtube-dl and waiting for it. This was the
main reason for making libmpv have a different default.
Starting sub processes from a library can still be a bit fishy, but I
think it's ok. Still mention it in the libmpv header. There were already
other cases where libmpv would start its own processes, such as the X11
backend calling xdg-screensaver. (The reason why this is fishy is
because UNIX process management sucks: SIGCHLD and the wait() syscall
make sub processes non-transparent and could potentially introduce
conflicts with code trying to use them.)
Before this commit, some autoselection of tracks coming from files
loaded with --external-files was still done. This commit removes all of
it, and the only way to select a track is via the explicit stream
selection options like --vid/--sid/--aid.
I think this was always the original intention. The change could in
theory still unintentionally surprise some users, so add a changelog
entry.
This does not affect --audio-file/--sub-file, even if these contain
mismatching track types. E.g. if audio files passed to --audio-file
contain subtitles, these should still be selected. Past feature requests
indicate that users want this.
--copy-metadata describes the result of the option better, (copying metadata
from the source file to the output file). Marks the old --no-ometadata
OPT_REMOVED with a suggestion for the new --no-ocopy-metadata.
A release has been made, so drop options deprecated for that release.
Also drop some options which have been deprecated a much longer time
before.
Also fix a typo in client-api-changes.rst.
Some old crap which nobody needs and which probably nobody uses.
This relies on a GCC extension: using "## __VA_ARGS__" to remove the
comma from the argument list if the va args are empty. It's supported
by clang, and there's some chance newer standards will introduce a
proper way to do this. (Even if it breaks somewhere, it will be a
problem only for 1 release, since I want to drop the deprecated
properties immediately.)
Annoying exception that makes no sense to keep. Normally, users or
client applications will either use --hwdec=auto, or not set the option
at all, which both leads to the expected result.
Change it from explicit metadata about every hwaccel method to trying to
get it from libavcodec. As shown by add_all_hwdec_methods(), this is a
quite bumpy road, and a bit worse than expected.
This will probably cause a bunch of regressions. In particular I didn't
check all the strange decoder wrappers, which all cause some sort of
special cases each. You're volunteering for beta testing by using this
commit.
One interesting thing is that we completely get rid of mp_hwdec_ctx in
vd_lavc.c, and that HWDEC_* mostly goes away (some filters still use it,
and the VO hwdec interops still have a lot of code to set it up, so it's
not going away completely for now).
Make the VO<->decoder interface capable of supporting multiple hwdec
APIs at once. The main gain is that this simplifies autoprobing a lot.
Before this change, it could happen that the VO loaded the "wrong" hwdec
API, and the decoder was stuck with the choice (breaking hw decoding).
With the change applied, the VO simply loads all available APIs, so
autoprobing trickery is left entirely to the decoder.
In the past, we were quite careful about not accidentally loading the
wrong interop drivers. This was in part to make sure autoprobing works,
but also because libva had this obnoxious bug of dumping garbage to
stderr when using the API. libva was fixed, so this is not a problem
anymore.
The --opengl-hwdec-interop option is changed in various ways (again...),
and renamed to --gpu-hwdec-interop. It does not have much use anymore,
other than debugging. It's notable that the order in the hwdec interop
array ra_hwdec_drivers[] still matters if multiple drivers support the
same image formats, so the option can explicitly force one, if that
should ever be necessary, or more likely, for debugging. One example are
the ra_hwdec_d3d11egl and ra_hwdec_d3d11eglrgb drivers, which both
support d3d11 input.
vo_gpu now always loads the interop lazily by default, but when it does,
it loads them all. vo_opengl_cb now always loads them when the GL
context handle is initialized. I don't expect that this causes any
problems.
It's now possible to do things like changing between vdpau and nvdec
decoding at runtime.
This is also preparation for cleaning up vd_lavc.c hwdec autoprobing.
It's another reason why hwdec_devices_request_all() does not take a
hwdec type anymore.
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.
Mostly an obscure option for testing. But --videotoolbox-format can be
deprecated, as it becomes redundant.
We rely on the libavutil hwcontext implementation to reject invalid
pixfmts, or not to blow up if they are incompatible.
This is done in several steps:
1. refactor MPGLContext -> struct ra_ctx
2. move GL-specific stuff in vo_opengl into opengl/context.c
3. generalize context creation to support other APIs, and add --gpu-api
4. rename all of the --opengl- options that are no longer opengl-specific
5. move all of the stuff from opengl/* that isn't GL-specific into gpu/
(note: opengl/gl_utils.h became opengl/utils.h)
6. rename vo_opengl to vo_gpu
7. to handle window screenshots, the short-term approach was to just add
it to ra_swchain_fns. Long term (and for vulkan) this has to be moved to
ra itself (and vo_gpu altered to compensate), but this was a stop-gap
measure to prevent this commit from getting too big
8. move ra->fns->flush to ra_gl_ctx instead
9. some other minor changes that I've probably already forgotten
Note: This is one half of a major refactor, the other half of which is
provided by rossy's following commit. This commit enables support for
all linux platforms, while his version enables support for all non-linux
platforms.
Note 2: vo_opengl_cb.c also re-uses ra_gl_ctx so it benefits from the
--opengl- options like --opengl-early-flush, --opengl-finish etc. Should
be a strict superset of the old functionality.
Disclaimer: Since I have no way of compiling mpv on all platforms, some
of these ports were done blindly. Specifically, the blind ports included
context_mali_fbdev.c and context_rpi.c. Since they're both based on
egl_helpers, the port should have gone smoothly without any major
changes required. But if somebody complains about a compile error on
those platforms (assuming anybody actually uses them), you know where to
complain.
This mechanism uses system() and shouldn't even exist. x11_common.c has
its own solution for the original problem (disabling Linux DE
screensavers without MPlayer/mpv having to link a dbus lib). If that is
not sufficient, you can create a simple Lua script.
Incidentally fixes#4888.
Mouse wheel bindings have always been a cause of user confusion.
Previously, on Wayland and macOS, precise touchpads would generate AXIS
keycodes and notched mouse wheels would generate mouse button keycodes.
On Windows, both types of device would generate AXIS keycodes and on
X11, both types of device would generate mouse button keycodes. This
made it pretty difficult for users to modify their mouse-wheel bindings,
since it differed between platforms and in some cases, between devices.
To make it more confusing, the keycodes used on Windows were changed in
18a45a42d5 without a deprecation period or adequate communication to
users.
This change aims to make mouse wheel binds less confusing. Both the
mouse button and AXIS keycodes are now deprecated aliases of the new
WHEEL keycodes. This will technically break input configs on Wayland and
macOS that assign different commands to precise and non-precise scroll
events, but this is probably uncommon (if anyone does it at all) and I
think it's a fair tradeoff for finally fixing mouse wheel-related
confusion on other platforms.
mpv's mouse button numbering is based on X11 button numbering, which
allows for an arbitrary number of buttons and includes mouse wheel input
as buttons 3-6. This button numbering was used throughout the codebase
and exposed in input.conf, and it was difficult to remember which
physical button each number actually referred to and which referred to
the scroll wheel.
In practice, PC mice only have between two and five buttons and one or
two scroll wheel axes, which are more or less in the same location and
have more or less the same function. This allows us to use names to
refer to the buttons instead of numbers, which makes input.conf syntax a
lot easier to remember. It also makes the syntax robust to changes in
mpv's underlying numbering. The old MOUSE_BTNx names are still
understood as deprecated aliases of the named buttons.
This changes both the input.conf syntax and the MP_MOUSE_BTNx symbols in
the codebase, since I think both would benefit from using names over
numbers, especially since some platforms don't use X11 button numbering
and handle different mouse buttons in different windowing system events.
This also makes the names shorter, since otherwise they would be pretty
long, and it removes the high-numbered MOUSE_BTNx_DBL names, since they
weren't used.
Names are the same as used in Qt:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt.html#MouseButton-enum
This removes all GPL only code from it, and that's the whole purpose.
Also happens to be much simpler.
The "deinterlace" option still sort of exists, but only as runtime
changeable option. The main change in behavior is that the property will
not report back the actual deint state. Or in other words, if inserting
or initializing the filter fails, the deinterlace property will still
return "yes". This is in line with most recent behavior changes to
properties and options.
Both the video equalizer command/option glue, which drives this filter,
as well as the filter itself are slightly GPL contaminated. So it goes.
After this commit, "--vf=eq" will actually use libavfilter's vf_eq (if
FFmpeg was compiled in GPL mode), but it has different options and will
not listen to the equalizer VOCTRLs.
Tends to be somewhat glitchy if subtitles are enabled, and you enable
and disable tracks.
On error, this will disable --lavfi-complex, which will result in
whatever behavior.
Move multiple GL-specific things from the renderer to other places like
vo_opengl.c, vo_opengl_cb.c, and ra_gl.c.
The vp_w/vp_h parameters to gl_video_resize() make no sense anymore, and
are implicitly part of struct fbodst.
Checking the main framebuffer depth is moved to vo_opengl.c. For
vo_opengl_cb.c it always assumes 8. The API user now has to override
this manually. The previous heuristic didn't make much sense anyway.
The only remaining dependency on GL is the hwdec stuff, which is harder
to change.
Further work removing GL dependencies from the actual video renderer,
and moving them into ra backends.
Use of glInvalidateFramebuffer() falls away. I'd like to keep this, but
it's better to readd it once shader runs are in ra.
Since this code was already written for HDR, and is now per-channel
(because it works better for HDR as well), we can actually reuse this to
get very high quality gamut mapping without clipping. The only required
change is to move the tone mapping from before the gamut map to after
the gamut map. Additonally, we need to also account for changes in the
signal range as a result of applying the CMS when we compute ref_peak,
which is fortunately pretty easy because we only need to consider the
case of primaries mapping to themselves.
Since `HDR` no longer really makes sense as a label, rename it to
`--tone-mapping` in general. Also fits better with
`--tone-mapping-desat` etc.
Arguably we could also rename `--hdr-compute-peak`, but that option is
basically only useful for HDR content anyway because we don't need
information about the signal range for gamut mapping.
This (finally!) gives us reasonably high quality gamut mapping even in
the absence of an ICC profile / 3DLUT.
Remove this code because it could be argued that it contains GPL-only
code (see commit 642e963c86 for details).
The remaining aspect methods appear to work just as well, are
potentially more compatible to other players, and the code becomes much
simpler.
It's now possible to request non-dumb mode as a user, even when not
using any non-dumb features. This change is mostly intended for testing,
so I can easily switch between dumb and non-dumb mode on default
settings. The default behavior is unaffected.
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.
This is more confusing than it helps, and forces escaping more stuff.
For example, for string lists we could remove all need for escaling with
-add and -pre.
The user can simply use multiple of those options.
