Make it possible to feed a string to stdin of a subprocess. Out of
laziness, it can't be an arbitrary byte string. (Would require adding an
option type that takes in a Lua byte string.)
Do not set stdin of a subprocess to fd 0 (i.e. mpv's stdin) anymore,
because it makes things more consistent. Enabling stdin didn't make too
much sense in the first place, so this behavior change seems
justifiable.
win32 support missing.
Fixes: #8003
When the current file changes (or rather, when starting/finishing
playback of a playlist entry), clients tend to have the problem that
it's hard to tell whether a property change notification (via
mpv_observe_property() and mechanisms layered on top of it) is from the
previous or new playlist entry. The previous commit probably helps, but
all the asynchronity is still a bit unhelpful.
Try to make this better by adding new hooks, that are run before/after
playback init/deinit. This is similar to the existing hooks, except
they're outside of "initialized" playback, which excludes that you might
accidentally get an overlap between the current and the previous/next
playlist entry.
That still doesn't seem quite enough, since normally, property change
notifications come after the hook event. So basically a client would
have to explicitly "drain" the event queue within the hook, and make the
hook continue only after that is done. Knowing when property
notifications are done is another asynchronous nightmare (how exactly it
works keeps changing within client.c, and an API user probably can't
tell anymore when all pending properties are truly done). So introduce
another guarantee: properties that were changed before the hook happens
will be returned before the hook event is returned. That means the
client will have received all pending property notifications from the
previous playlist entry (or whatever) before the hook is entered.
As another minor complication, we shouldn't just keep the hook pending
until _all_ property notifications are done, since the client's hook
could produce new ones. (Or just consider things like the demuxer thread
hammering the client with cache update events, while the "on_preloaded"
hook is run.) So there is some extra untested, fragile logic in client.c
to handle this (the waiting_for_hook flag).
This probably works, but was barely tested. Not sure if this helps
anyone, but I think it's fine for my own purposes. (I really hated this
aspect of the API whenever I used it myself.)
This is more or less a minimal hack to make _some_ text measurement
functionality available to scripts. Since libass does not support such a
thing, this simply uses the bounding box of the rendered text.
This is far from ideal. Problems include:
- using a bitmap bounding box
- additional memory waste and/or flushing caches
- dependency on window size
- odd small deviations with different window sizes (run osd-test.lua and
resize the window after each timer update; the bounding boxes aren't
adjusted in an overly useful way)
- inability to query the size _after_ actual rendering
But I guess it's a start. Since I'm aware that it's crap, add a threat
to the manpage that this may be changed/removed again. For now, I'm
interested whether anyone will have use for it in its current form, as
it's an often requested feature.
The example configuration uses values of true/false for the script
options. As per DOCS/man/lua.rst boolean values should be represented
with yes/no and using true/false will result in an error.
This updates the comments and changes the true/false values under the
example configuration to yes/no.
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
mpv typically decodes and filters at least 2 frames before starting
playback. This happens during seeks, as well as when playback starts
from the beginning of the file.
skip-logo.lua receives notifications for all filtered frames, even
during seeking. It should interrupt during seeking, so as a crude
heuristic, it ignored all frames while the player was seeking. This does
not mean all these frames are skipped due to seeking (thus it's a "crude
hueristic"). In particular, it means that the first 2 frames of a video
cannot be skipped, since they're filtered within the playback restart
phase (equivalent to "seeking").
Fix this by making the heuristic slightly less crude. Since we observe
the property as "none", the property is not actually read until we do it
explicitly. By not reading it during seeking, we can let the frames
internally queue up (vf_fingerprint discards them in a ringbuffer-like
fashion if they're too many). Then, if seeking ends, we get the current
playback timestamp, and check queued up frames that are at or after that
timestamp. (In some ways, this duplicates what the player's seeking
logic does.)
A disadvantage is that this is racy. While playback-time is guaranteed
to be set when seeking changes from false to true, playback could
already have progressed to the next frame (or more) before the script
gets time to react. In theory, we could add a seek restart hook or so,
but I don't want to. A property that returns the last playback restart
time would also do it, but feels to special. Not an important problem
in practice anyway.
The description of the "playback_only" field in the "subprocess" command
says "you can't start it outside of playback". This did not work
correctly: if the player was started in idle mode in the first place,
the subprocess was allowed to run even with playback_only=yes.
This is a bug, and this change fixes it. Add a test for this to
command-test.lua.
For #7025.
Autoload script now suppports loading of not only video, but also
image and audio files, in a manner, where one can configure which
of the groups (audio, videos, images) is currently enabled.
Use file script-opts/autoload.conf with key=value configuration keys
disabled,images,videos,audio to configure autoload script.
See documentation on top of the script
skip-logo.lua is just what I wanted to have. Explanations are on the top
of that file. As usual, all documentation threatens to remove this stuff
all the time, since this stuff is just for me, and unlike a normal user
I can afford the luxuary of hacking the shit directly into the player.
vf_fingerprint is needed to support this script. It needs to scale down
video frames as part of its operation. For that, it uses zimg. zimg is
much faster than libswscale and generates more correct output. (The
filter includes a runtime fallback, but it doesn't even work because
libswscale fucks up and can't do YUV->Gray with range adjustment.)
Note on the algorithm: seems almost too simple, but was suggested to me.
It seems to be pretty effective, although long time experience with
false positives is missing. At first I wanted to use dHash [1][2], which
is also pretty simple and effective, but might actually be worse than
the implemented mechanism. dHash has the advantage that the fingerprint
is smaller. But exact matching is too unreliable, and you'd still need
to determine the number of different bits for fuzzier comparison. So
there wasn't really a reason to use it.

Until now, they could be aborted only by ending playback, and calling
mpv_abort_async_command didn't do anything.
This requires furthering the mess how playback abort is done. The main
reason why mp_cancel exists at all is to avoid that a "frozen" demuxer
(blocked on network I/O or whatever) cannot freeze the core. The core
should always get its way. Previously, there was a single mp_cancel
handle, that could be signaled, and all demuxers would unfreeze. With
external files, we might want to abort loading of a certain external
file, which automatically means they need a separate mp_cancel. So give
every demuxer its own mp_cancel, and "slave" it to whatever parent
mp_cancel handles aborting.
Since the mpv demuxer API conflates creating the demuxer and reading the
file headers, mp_cancel strictly need to be created before the demuxer
is created (or we couldn't abort loading). Although we give every
demuxer its own mp_cancel (as "enforced" by cancel_and_free_demuxer),
it's still rather messy to create/destroy it along with the demuxer.
This affects async commands started by client API, commands with async
capability run in a sync way by client API (think mpv_command_node()
with "subprocess"), and detached async work.
Since scripts might want to do some cleanup work (that might involve
launching processes, don't ask), we don't unconditionally kill
everything on exit, but apply an arbitrary timeout of 2 seconds until
async commands are aborted.
This supports named arguments. It benefits from the infrastructure of
async commands.
The plan is to reimplement Lua's utils.subprocess() on top of it.
Overall, just shuffled code around and added a few debugging messages
for future issues.
The issue could be reproduced easily by quickly navigating through the
playlist inside a network mount.
Closes#5618
Updates the line once per second rather than once per frame, saving
quite a bit of CPU. Also completely stops the script while paused.
That aside, fixes the swapped checks for video and audio-only files and
adds bitrate printing.
Remove low quality drc filter. Anyone whishing to have dynamic range
compression should use the much more powerful acompressor ffmpeg filter:
mpv --af=lavfi=[acompressor] INPUT
Or with parameters:
mpv --af=lavfi=[acompressor=threshold=-25dB:ratio=3:makeup=8dB] INPUT
Refer to https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#acompressor for a full
list of supported parameters.

This allows leaving autoload in auto-loaded scripts and to be used
in a special profile like "pseudo-gui" without being troublesome
to disable the behavior in profiles that get applied after
pseudo-gui.
Ex:
[someprofile]
script-opts=autoload-disabled=yes
Old-style commands using _ as separator (e.g. show_progress) were still
used in some places, including documentation and configuration files.
This commit updates all such instances to the new style (show-progress)
so that commands are easier to find in the manual.
Fixes regression in dfd8a5f that made autoload not add more files
at the end of the current playlist if playlist was made by the
script.
This still prevents loading the script if more than one (media or
playlist) file was manually added.
Lua script that enables handling of certain commands depending on where
the mouse pointer is. Mostly useful for mouse-wheel handling via
input.conf.
Example:
MOUSE_BTN3 script-message-to zones commands "*-left: add volume +5"
"default: seek +10"
MOUSE_BTN4 script-message-to zones commands "*-left: add volume -5"
"default: seek -10"
Will changes behavior of Mouse Wheel Up/Down to alter volume if mouse is
in the left zone of the window, but re-adds the default to seek if wheel
is used on other parts.
