This can be useful in other contexts.
Note that we end up setting AVCodecContext.width/height instead of
coded_width/coded_height now. AVCodecParameters can't set coded_width,
but this is probably more correct anyway.
The FFmpeg versions we support all have the APIs we were checking for.
Only Libav missed them. Simplify this by explicitly checking for FFmpeg
in the code, instead of trying to detect the presence of the API.
Since we set "skip_manual", we can actually get frames with this set.
Currently, only AV_PKT_FLAG_DISCARD will trigger this flag, and only
mov.c sets the latter flags, so this is related to FFmpeg's half-broken
mp4 edit list support.
Apparently you set the native sample rate when passing through AC3.
This fixes passthrough with 44100 Hz AC3.
Avoid opening a decoder for this and only open the parser. (Hopefully
DTS will also support this some time in the future or so - having to
open a decoder just to get the profile is dumb.)
Same deal as with video. Including the EOF handling.
(It would be nice if this code were not duplicated, but right now we're
not even close to unifying the audio and video code paths.)
Looks quite like a bug. If you have a filter chain with only the
dynaudnorm filter, and send call av_buffersrc_add_frame(s, NULL), then
subsequent av_buffersink_get_frame() calls will return EAGAIN instead of
EOF.
This was apparently caused by a recent change in FFmpeg.
Some other circumstances (which I didn't fully analyze and which is due
to the playloop's absurd temporary-EOF behavior on seeks) then led the
decoder loop to send data again, but since libavfilter was stuck in the
EOF state now, it could never recover. It kept sending new input (due to
missing output), until the demuxer refused to return more audio packets.
Each time a filter error was printed.
Fortunately, it's pretty easy to workaround. We just mark the p->eof
flag as we send an EOF frame to libavfilter. The p->eof flag is used
only to recover from temporary EOF: it resets the filter if new data is
available again. We don't care much about av_buffersink_get_frame()
returning a broken EAGAIN state in this situation and essentially ignore
it, meaning if we get EAGAIN after sending EOF, we assume effectively
that EOF was fully reached.
Remove ad_spdif from the normal codec list, and select it explicitly.
One goal was to decouple this from the normal codec selection, so
they're less entangled and the decoder selection code can be simplified
in the far future. This means spdif codec selection is now done
explicitly via select_spdif_codec(). We can also remove the weird
requirements on "dts" and "dts-hd" for the --audio-spdif option, and it
can just do the right thing.
Now both video and audio codecs consist of a single codec family each,
vd_lavc and ad_lavc.
Currently, if init_filter fails after lavf_ctx is allocated, uninit is called
which frees lavf_ctx, but doesn't clear the pointer in spdif_ctx. So, on the
next call of decode_packet, it thinks it is already initialized and uses it,
resulting in a crash on my system.
We log a large number of formats, but we rarely log the result of the
probing. Change this.
The logic in try_format_exclusive() changes slightly, but should be
equivalent. EXIT_ON_ERROR() checks for FAILED(), which should be
exclusive to SUCCEEDED().
Long planned. Leads to some sanity.
There still are some rather gross things. Especially g_groups is ugly,
and a hack that can hopefully be removed. (There is a plan for it, but
whether it's implemented depends on how much energy is left.)
Until now, this was only implemented for ao_alsa and AOs not using
push.c. ao_alsa.c relied on enabling funny underrun semantics for
avoiding resets on lower levels, while other AOs using push.c didn't do
anything.
Change this and at least make push.c copy silent data to the AO. This
still isn't perfect as keeping track of how much silence was played when
seems complex, so we don't do it. The consequence is that frame-stepping
will essentially randomize the A/V offset (it'll recover immediately
when unpausing, but still ugly). Also, in order to empty the currently
buffered audio on seeks etc., we still call ao_driver->reset and so on,
so the AO driver will still need to handle this specially.
The intent is to make behavior with ALSA less weird (for one we can
remove the code in ao_alsa.c that tries to trigger an initial
underflow). Also might help with #3754.
The "default" entry (which is and always was mpv/mplayer's default) does
not have a description set in the ALSA API. (While "sysdefault"
strangely has.)
Instead of an empty description, this should show something nice, so
reuse the ao.c code for naming default devices (see previous commit).
It's still a bit ugly that audio-device-list will have a default entry
for "Autoselect device" and "Default (alsa)", but then again we probably
want to allow the user to force ALSA (i.e. prevent fallbacks to other
AOs) just because ALSA is so flaky and makes this a legitimate feature.
This will make it easier for AOs to add explicit default device entries.
(See next commit.)
Hopefully this change doesn't lead accidentally to bogus "Default"
entries to appear, but then it can only happen if the device ID is
empty, which would mean the underlying audio API returned bogus entries.
Use the device name as fallback. This is ugly, but still better than
skipping the description entirely. This can be an issue on ALSA, where
the API can return entries without proper description.
This happens when ALSA gives us more channels than we asked for, for
whatever reasons. It looks like this wasn't handled correctly. The mpv
and ALSA channel counts could mismatch, which would lead to UB.
I couldn't actually trigger this case, though. I'm fairly sure that
drivers or plugins exist that do it anyway. (Inofficial ALSA motto: if
it can be broken, then why not break it?)
If the input is already mono or stereo, or if channel map selection
results in mono or stereo, then disable further use of the champ ALSA
API (or rather, stop trusting its results). Then we behave like a simple
application that only wants to output mono or stereo.
See #3045 and #2905. I couldn't actually test these cases, but this
commit is supposed to fix them.
set_chmap() skipped _setting_ the ALSA chmap if chmap use was requested
to be disabled by setting dev_chmap.num=0 by the caller, but it still
queried the current ALSA channel map. We don't trust it that much, so
disable that as well.
But we still query and log it, because that could be helpful for
debugging. Otherwise we could skip the entire set_chmap() call in these
cases.
Both AVFrame.pts and AVFrame.pkt_pts have existed for a long time. Until
now, decoders always returned the pts via the pkt_pts field, while the
pts field was used for encoding and libavfilter only. Recently, pkt_pts
was deprecated, and pts was switched to always carry the pts.
This means we have to be careful not to accidentally use the wrong
field, depending on the libavcodec version. We have to explicitly check
the version numbers. Of course the version numbers are completely
idiotic, because idiotically the pkg-config and library names are the
same for FFmpeg and Libav, so we have to deal with this explicitly as
well.
If the "default" device refuses to be opened as spdif device (i.e. it
errors due to the AES0 etc. parameters), we were falling back to the
iec958 device. This is needed on some systems for smooth operation with
PCM vs. spdif.
Now change it to try "hdmi" before "iec958", which supposedly helps in
other situations.
Better suggestions welcome. Apparently kodi does this too, although I
didn't check directly.
The player tries to avoid splitting frames with spdif (sample alignment
stuff). This can in certain corner cases with certain drivers lead to
the situation that ao_get_space() returns a number higher than 0 and
lower than the audio frame size. The playloop will round this down to 0
bytes and do nothing, leading to a missed wakeup. This can lead to
underruns or playback completely getting stuck.
It can be reproduced by playing AC3 passthrough with no video and:
--ao=null --ao-null-buffer=0.256 --ao-null-outburst=6100
This commit attempts to fix it by allowing the playloop to write some
additional data (to get a complete frame), that will be buffered within
the AO ringbuffer even if the audio device doesn't want it.
We always want to use __declspec(selectany) to declare GUIDs, but
manually including <initguid.h> in every file that used GUIDs was
error-prone. Since all <initguid.h> does is define INITGUID and include
<guiddef.h>, we can remove all references to <initguid.h> and just
compile with -DINITGUID to get the same effect.
Also, this partially reverts 622bcb0 by re-adding libuuid.a to the
build, since apparently some GUIDs (such as GUID_NULL) are not declared
in the source file, even when INITGUID is set.
This was in the parser code all along. As far as I can tell, *cp was
intended. There is no need to check cp for NULL (nor does it make any
sense to do so every time around the loop) for AF_CONTROL_COMMAND.
However, s->matrixstr can be NULL, so checking for that separately is in
order.
For stereo and typical L/R-first channel arrangements, this avoids
undesirable phasing artifacts, especially obvious when speed is changed
and then reset. Without this, there is a very audible change in the
stereo field even when librubberband is no longer actually making any
speed changes.
There were multiple values under M_OPT_EXIT (M_OPT_EXIT-n for n>=0).
Somehow M_OPT_EXIT-n either meant error code n (with n==0 no error?), or
the number of option valus consumed (0 or 1). The latter is MPlayer
legacy, which left it to the option type parsers to determine whether an
option took a value or not. All of this was changed in mpv, by requiring
the user to use explicit syntax ("--opt=val" instead of "-opt val").
In any case, the n value wasn't even used (anymore), so rip this all
out. Now M_OPT_EXIT-1 doesn't mean anything, and could be used by a new
error code.
Currently, calling mp_input_wakeup() will wake up the core thread (also
called the playloop). This seems odd, but currently the core indeed
calls mp_input_wait() when it has nothing more to do. It's done this way
because MPlayer used input_ctx as central "mainloop".
This is probably going to change. Remove direct calls to this function,
and replace it with mp_wakeup_core() calls. ao and vo are changed to use
opaque callbacks and not use input_ctx for this purpose. Other code
already uses opaque callbacks, or has legitimate reasons to use
input_ctx directly (such as sending actual user input).
The first one is printed even if the user disabled video (or there's no
video), so just remove it. The second one uses deprecated sub-option
syntax, so remove that as well.
And introduce a global option which does this. Or more precisely, this
deprecates the global wasapi and coreaudio options, and adds a new one
that merges their functionality. (Due to the way the sub-option
deprecation mechanism works, this is simpler.)
I decided that it's too much work to convert all the VO/AOs to the new
option system manually at once. So here's a shitty hack instead, which
achieves almost the same thing. (The only user-visible difference is
that e.g. --vo=name:help will list the sub-options normally, instead of
showing them as deprecation placeholders. Also, the sub-option parser
will verify each option normally, instead of deferring to the global
option parser.)
Another advantage is that once we drop the deprecated options,
converting the remaining things will be easier, because we obviously
don't need to add the compatibility hacks.
Using this mechanism is separate in the next commit to keep the diff
noise down.
