currently hysteresis-secs only works when the demuxer-max-bytes fills
up. but it's possible for the cache-secs/demuxer-readahead-secs to be
reached first.
in those cases, hysteresis-secs doesn't work and keeps buffering
non-stop. but the goal of this option was to save power by avoiding
non-stop buffering so go ahead and make it respect cache-secs as well.
additionally remove some redundant repetition from the docs.
5f74ed5828 deprecated this many years ago.
The utility is questionable at best given that -remove exists and is
more natural to use. Free up some code and drop it.
The MPV_LEAK_REPORT environment variable was previously read in order to
determine whether or not to enable memory reporting for javascript
scripts. This is kind of weird and deviates from the norm of exposing an
option to the user. So let's just add --js-memory-report and disable it
by default instead.
--play-dir sounds like it has something to do with directories so change
it. The play_dir variable is used a bunch everywhere internally so
whatever just leave it alone instead of renaming that.
This option has exactly the same semantics are other mpv options that
override a particular thing with something from the user. So instead of
the "force-style" name, use "-overrides" which is more consistent.
The plural form is used since it's a list option.
Other similar options are in the form of --foo-override not
--override-foo. The display-fps one was backwards so flip it around the
other way for consistency reasons.
This better reflects what it actually does. As a bonus, script writers
won't be misled into thinking that fps displays the actual video or
display fps.
Peak detection greatly increases HDR experience. Performance hit of
non-delayed detection is not that significant and is in line with
current default settings.
I started going through the blame but once I got to mplayer commits from
20 years ago, I stopped bothering. This obscure option has always been
disabled by default, but there's zero reason, as far as I know, to not
just enable it today. Some CDs (particularly very old ones) have the
first sector shifted a bit and not starting exactly at 0. This makes the
logic that tries to get all the chapters completely fail and thus you
can't skip through tracks. However if you just enable this obscure
option, it just works. For anything that starts exactly at 0, the
calculated offset is just 0 anyway so it's a no-op and works exactly the
same. So basically, there's literally no reason to not just always try
to correct for the offset of the first sector by default.
Fixes#8777.
add support for vulkan through metal and a translation layer like
MoltenVK. also add the possibility to use different render timing modes
for testing.
i still consider this experimental atm.
Only vpdau-copy works with EGL. 2d1d815cc7 already added this to
manpage, and 1c8d2246bf removed it again, but that seems to be a mistake
because I can only get vdpau to work with GLX, and another user also
reported that only vdpau-copy was working for him with the default EGL.
There's really no reason not to do this especially since sub-codepage
already defaults to auto. Also change logging in charset_conv since
telling us that the data is UTF-8 if the passed codepage value is "auto"
or "utf-8" is really not useful information (that's the expectation).
What are cue sheets not metadata or something? No reason this needs to
be a separate option so just deprecate it. This does mean that the
default value changes from "auto" to "utf-8" for this obscure fringe
case. I really hope people don't use non-UTF-8 cuesheets, but the next
commit will change the default of --metadata-codepage to "auto" so
there's no actual change in behavior to users.
This reverts commit 576e86bfa1 (functionally).
Right now, the --config-dir option silently causes all watch_later and cache
files to be written in the --config-dir as well. This is pretty uninitutive
and also not desirable in most cases so get rid of this.
libmpv users will have to set the corresponding options or env vars if they
want to keep the old behaviour.
Combine the cover art whitelist with the extensions in
--cover-art-auto-exts instead of hardcoding them. This is shorter,
checks for more extensions, saves us from updating the whitelist
everytime we add a new image extension, and since the whitelist had
gotten so big and the priority is calculated as
MP_ARRAY_SIZE(cover_files) - n, files like cover.jpg were taking
priority over cover art loaded by --cover-art-auto=exact.
There is zero reason for this to be an MPOpt. Because of how the
OPT_SUBSTRACT works, the option gets renamed to cdda-device instead, but
probably not a big deal since the old alias is still in place.
No wonder wm4 wanted to get rid of this. This option requires touching a
bunch of crap in the core player code. --stream-record works perfectly
fine and is a lot nicer so there's no need for this to exist anymore.
A bit different from the OPT_REPLACED/OPT_REMOVED ones in that the
options still possibly do something but they have a deprecation
message. Most of these are old and have no real usage. The only
potentially controversial ones are the removal of --oaffset and
--ovoffset which were deprecated years ago and seemingly have no real
replacement. There's a cryptic message about --audio-delay but who
knows. The less encoding mode code we have, the better so just chuck
it.
We've got an ungodly amount of OPT_REPLACED and OPT_REMOVED sitting
around in the code. This is harmless, but the vast majority of these are
ancient. 26f4f18c06 is the last commit
that touched the majority of these and of course that only changed how
options were declared so all of this stuff was deprecated even before
that. No use in keeping these, so just delete them all. As an aside,
there was actually a cocoa_opts but it had only a single option which
was replaced by something else and empty otherwise. So that entire thing
was just simply removed. OPT_REPLACED/OPT_REMOVED declarations that were
added in 0.35 or later were kept as is.
The defaults were awful and horribly regressed many files while also not
fixing banding on files that actually needed it, sometimes even
*increasing* banding due to the low threshold.

This probably makes `vo_gpu` tone mapping worse, or something, but who
cares. The status quo for a while now has been to use `vo_gpu_next` if
you care about HDR rendering at all.

This new filter is slightly sharper, and significantly faster, than
mitchell. It also tends to preserve detail better. All in all, there is
no reason not to use it by default, especially from a performance PoV.
(In vo_gpu_next, hermite is implemented efficiently using hardware
accelerated bilinear interpolation)

It can hurt people's feelings to refer to scalers as "high quality" and
"low quality", when it is so subjective.
I decided to preserve the lanczos sections at least because it's mostly
talking about the difference between EWA Lanczos and Lanczos, which is
less controversial than the difference between, say, Lanczos and
Catmull.
The goal is to provide simple to understand quality/performance level
profiles for the users.
Instead of default and gpu-hq profile. There main profiles were added:
- fast: can run on any hardware
- default: balanced profile between quality and performance
- high-quality: out of the box high quality experience. Intended
mostly for dGPU.
Summary of three profiles, including default one:
[fast]
scale=bilinear
cscale=bilinear (implicit)
dscale=bilinear
dither=no
correct-downscaling=no
linear-downscaling=no
sigmoid-upscaling=no
hdr-compute-peak=no
[default] (implicit mpv defaults)
scale=lanczos
cscale=lanczos
dscale=mitchell
dither-depth=auto
correct-downscaling=yes
linear-downscaling=yes
sigmoid-upscaling=yes
hdr-compute-peak=yes
[high-quality] (inherits default options)
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
cscale=ewa_lanczossharp (implicit)
hdr-peak-percentile=99.995
hdr-contrast-recovery=0.30
