WGL_NV_DX_interop is widely supported by Nvidia and AMD drivers. It
allows a texture to be shared between Direct3D and WGL, so that
rendering can be done with WGL and presentation can be done with
Direct3D. This should allow us to work around some persistent WGL
issues, such as dropped frames with some driver/OS combos, drivers that
buffer frames to increase performance at the cost of latency, and the
inability to disable exclusive fullscreen mode when using WGL to render
to a fullscreen window.
The addition of a DX_interop backend might also enable some cool
Direct3D-specific enhancements in the future, such as using the
GetPresentStatistics API to get accurate frame presentation timestamps.
Note that due to a driver bug, this backend is currently broken on
Intel. It will appear to work as long as the window is not resized too
often, but after a few changes of size it will be unable to share the
newly created renderbuffer with GL. See:

This is only for specific Hauppage cards. According to the comments in
who is actively using this feature. Get it out of the way.
Anyone who still wants to use this should complain. Keeping this code
would not cause terribly much additional work, and it could be restored
again. (But not if the request comes months later.)
There are claims that nnedi3.c doesn't constitute its own new
implementation, but is derived from existing HLSL or OpenCL shaders
distributed under the LGPLv3 license.
Until these are resolved, do the "correct" thing and require
--enable-gpl3 to build nnedi.
ANGLE is a GLES2 implementation for Windows that uses Direct3D 11 for
rendering, enabling vo_opengl to work on systems with poor OpenGL
drivers and bypassing some of the problems with native GL, such as VSync
in fullscreen mode.
Unfortunately, using GLES2 means that most of vo_opengl's advanced
features will not work, however ANGLE is under rapid development and
GLES3 support is supposed to be coming soon.
Notes:
- Unfortunately the only way to talk to EGL from within DRM I could find
involves linking with GBM (generic buffer management for Mesa.)
Because of this, I'm pretty sure it won't work with proprietary NVidia
drivers, but then again, last time I checked NVidia didn't offer
proper screen resolution for VT.
- VT switching doesn't seem to work at all. It's worth mentioning that
using vo_drm before introduction of VT switcher had an anomaly where
user could switch to another VT and input text to it, while video
played on top of that VT. However, that isn't the case with drm_egl:
I can't switch to other VT during playback like this. This makes me
think that it's either a limitation coming from my firmware or from
EGL/KMS itself rather than a bug with my code. Nonetheless, I still
left (untestable) VT switching code in place, in case it's useful to
someone else.
- The mode_id, connector_id and device_path should be configurable for
power users and people who wish to watch videos on nonprimary screen.
Unfortunately I didn't see anything that would allow OpenGL backends
to register their own set of options. At the same time, adding them to
global namespace is pointless.
- A few dozens of lines could be shared with vo_drm (setting up VT
switching, most of code behind page flipping). I don't have any strong
opinion on this.
- Sometimes I get minor visual glitches. I'm not sure if there's a race
condition of some sort, unitialized variable (doubtful), or if it's
buggy driver. (I'm using integrated Intel HD Graphics 4400 with Mesa)
- .config and .control are very minimal.

0.34 and 0.35 don't have the buffer API, such as vaAcquireBufferHandle.
This is only needed for the EGL interop, but why bother staying
compatible for such old things (0.36 was released over a year ago).
We also can drop some minor compatibility ifdeffery.
This AVPacket field was a hack against the fact that the duration field
was merely an int (too small for things like subtitle durations). Newer
libavcodec drops this field and makes duration 64 bit.
VideoToolbox is preferred. Now that FFmpeg released 2.8, there's no
reason to support VDA anymore. In fact, we had a bug that made VDA not
useable with older FFmpeg versions in some newer mpv releases.
VideoToolbox is supported even on slightly older OSX versions, and if
not, you still can run mpv without hw decoding.
There are at least 2 ways of using VAAPI without X11 (Wayland, DRM).
Remove the X11 requirement from the decoder part and the EGL interop.
This will be used by a following commit, which adds Wayland support.
The worst about this is the decoder part, which includes a bad hack for
using the decoder without any VO interop (also known as "vaapi-copy"
mode). Separate the X11 parts so that they're self-contained. For the
EGL interop code we do something similar (it's kept slightly simpler,
because it essentially only has to translate between our silly
MPGetNativeDisplay abstraction and the vaGetDisplay...() call).
It looks like my hope that we can unconditionally include EGL headers in
the OpenGL code is not coming true, because OSX does not support EGL at
all. So I prefer loading the VAAPI EGL/GL specific extensions manually,
because it's less of a mess. Partially reverts commit d47dff3f.
This makes it much faster if the surface is really mapped from GPU
memory. It's slightly slower than system memcpy if used on system
memory. We don't really know definitely in which type of memory
it's located, so we use the GPU memcpy in all cases.
Fixes#2317.
Make the GPU memcpy from the dxva2 code generally useful to other parts
of the player.
We need to check at configure time whether SSE intrinsics work at all.
(At least in this form, they won't work on clang, for example. It also
won't work on non-x86.)
Introduce a mp_image_copy_gpu(), and make the dxva2 code use it. Do some
awkward stuff to share the existing code used by mp_image_copy(). I'm
hoping that FFmpeg will sooner or later provide a function like this, so
we can remove most of this again. (There is a patch, bit it's stuck in
limbo since forever.)
All this is used by the following commit.
Broken by commit d47dff3f. If something is going to include EGL.h,
header_fixes.h has to know. This definitely affected vo_rpi, and
probably affects wayland builds (with x11egl didabled) as well.
Should work much better than the old GLX interop code. Requires Mesa 11,
and explicitly selecting the X11 EGL backend with:
--vo=opengl:backend=x11egl
Should it turn out that the new interop works well, we will try to
autodetect EGL by default.
This code still uses some bad assumptions, like expecting surfaces to be
in NV12. (This is probably ok, because virtually all HW will use this
format. But we should at least check this on init or so, instead of
failing to render an image if our assumption doesn't hold up.)
This repo was a lot of help: https://github.com/gbeauchesne/ffvademo
The kodi code was also helpful (the magic FourCC it uses for
EGL_LINUX_DRM_FOURCC_EXT are nowhere documented, and
EGL_IMAGE_INTERNAL_FORMAT_EXT as used in ffvademo does
not actually exist).
(This is the 3rd VAAPI GL interop that was implemented in this player.)
The VAAPI EGL interop code will need access to the X11 Display. While
GLX could return it from the current GLX context, EGL has no such
mechanism. (At least no standard one supported by all implementations.)
So mpv makes up such a mechanism.
For internal purposes, this is very rather awkward solution, but it's
needed for libmpv anyway.
These extensions use a bunch of EGL types, so we need to include the EGL
headers in common.h to use our GL function loader with this.
In the future, we should probably require presence of the EGL headers to
reduce the hacks. This might be not so simple at least with OSX, so for
now this has to do.
It's possible to build vf_vapoursynth with either the Python or Lua
backend (or both or none). The check for the vapoursynth core itself was
hidden away and couldn't be disabled, which would link mpv with
vapoursynth even if all backends were disabled.
Rearrange the checks so that the core will be disabled if no backend is
found (or both are disabled). This duplicates the check for
vapoursynth.pc, but since it's trivial, this is not that bad.
These were normalized and are saner now. We want to use the new fields,
and also get rid of the deprecation warnings, so use them. There's no
release yet which uses these, so some ifdeffery is unfortunately needed.
Some users still use this filter, so the filter was going to be kept.
But I overlooked that libavfilter provides this filter. Remove the
redundant wrapper from mpv. Something like --af=lavfi=bs2b should work
and give exactly the same results.
All of these filters are considered not useful anymore by us. Some have
replacements in libavfilter (useable through af_lavfi).
af_center, af_extrastereo, af_karaoke, af_sinesuppress, af_sub,
af_surround, af_sweep: pretty simple and useless filters which probably
nobody ever wants.
af_ladspa: has a replacement in libavfilter.
af_hrtf: the algorithm doesn't work properly on most sources, and the
implementation was buggy and complicated. (The filter was inherited from
MPlayer; but even in mpv times we had to apply fixes that fixed major
issues with added noise.) There is a ladspa filter if you still want to
use it.
af_export: I'm not even sure what this is supposed to do. Possibly it
was meant for GUIs rendering audio visualizations, but it couldn't
really work well. For example, the size of the audio depended on the
samplerate (fixed number of samples only), and it couldn't retrieve the
complete audio, only fragments. If this is really needed for GUIs, mpv
should add native visualization, or a proper API for it.
Slightly faster than using the dispmanx mess (perhaps to a large amount
due to the rather stupid C-only unoptimized ASS->RGBA blending code).
Do this by reusing vo_opengl's subtitle renderer, and vo_opengl's RPI
backend.
This works similar to the existing .rar support, but uses libarchive.
libarchive supports a number of formats, including zip and (most of)
rar.
Unfortunately, seeking does not work too well. Most libarchive readers
do not support seeking, so it's emulated by skipping data until the
target position. On backwards seek, the file is reopened. This works
fine on a local machine (and if the file is not too large), but will
perform not so well over network connection.
This is disabled by default for now. One reason is that we try
libarchive on every file we open, before trying libavformat, and I'm not
sure if I trust libarchive that much yet. Another reason is that this
breaks multivolume rar support. While libarchive supports seeking in
rar, and (probably) supports multivolume archive, our support of
libarchive (probably) does not. I don't care about multivolume rar, but
vocal users do.
While the "old" libavcodec vdpau API is not deprecated (only the very-
old API is), it's still relatively complicated code that badly
duplicates the much simpler newer vdpau code. It exists only for the
sake of older FFmpeg releases; get rid of it.
VDA is being deprecated in OS X 10.11 so this is needed to keep hwdec working.
The code needs libavcodec support which was added recently (to FFmpeg git,
libav doesn't support it).

Drop libva versions below 0.34.0. These are ancient, so I don't care.
Drop the vo_vaapi deinterlacer as well. With 0.34.0, VPP is always
available, and deinterlacing is done with vf_vavpp.
The vaCreateSurfaces() function changes its signature - actually it did
in 0.34.0 or so, and the <va/va_compat.h> defined a macro to make it use
the old signature.
Until now, it only used the hash from the previous configure run,
instead of trying to get the latest hash. The "old" build system did
this correctly - we just have to use the existing logic in version.sh.
Since waf supports separate build dirs, extend version.sh with an
argument for setting the path of version.h.
Yet another of these dozens of hwaccel changes. This time, libavcodec
provides utility functions, which initialize the vdpau decoder and map
codec profiles. So a lot of work the API user had to do falls away.
This also will give us support for high bit depth profiles, and possibly
HEVC once libavcodec supports it.
The hardware always decodes to nv12 so using this image format causes less cpu
usage than uyvy (which we are currently using, since Apple examples and other
free software use that). The reduction in cpu usage can add up to quite a bit,
especially for 4k or high fps video.
This needs an accompaning commit in libavcodec.
This unbreaks compiling command line player and libmpv at the same
time. The problem was that doing so silently disabled the OSX
application thing - but the command line player can not use the
vo_opengl Cocoa backend without it.
The OSX application code is basically dead in libmpv, but it's not
that much code anyway.
If you want a mpv binary that does not create an OSX application
singleton (and creates a menu etc.), you must disable cocoa
completely, as cocoa can't be used anyway in this case.
Use texture-from-pixmap instead of vaapi's "native" GLX support.
Apparently the latter is unused by other projects. Possibly it's broken
due that, and Intel's inability to provide anything non-broken in
relation to video.
The new code basically uses the X11 output method on a in-memory pixmap,
and maps this pixmap as texture using standard GLX mechanisms. This
requires a lot of X11 and GLX boilerplate, so the code grows. (I don't
know why libva's GLX interop doesn't just do the same under the hood,
instead of bothering the world with their broken/unmaintained "old"
method, whatever it did. I suspect that Intel programmers are just
genuine sadists.)
This change was suggested in issue #1765.
The old GLX support is removed, as it's redundant and broken anyway.
One remaining issue is that the first vaPutSurface() call fails with an
unknown error. It returns -1, which is pretty strange, because vaapi
error codes are normally positive. It happened with the old GLX code
too, but does not happen with vo_vaapi. I couldn't find out why.
