Reduces the ifdeffery, which is good and will avoid silent breakages, or
weird behavior if a lib is omitted.
Also reorder the x11_common.c include statements.
We have direct rendering with hardware decoding now (so no SSE4 for
memcpy from GPU memory required), and also OpenGL drivers are not so
much of a problem anymore with ANGLE being default.
We're too lazy to maintain a full changelog, but there are still a bunch
of places which document specific changes. A user really should check
them on each update, even if there are transition periods (including
printing warnings etc.) for most changes. It's a good idea to give them
more exposure by adding them to the README.
We don't support this anymore.
This tries to exit in a controlled way after command line options are
applied in order to honor logging options and, in case of libmpv, not to
kill the host. Not sure if it would be better to just vomit text to
stderr and call abort().
This is actually all bullshit. There are many factors that can ruin the
video playback experience (and most outside of our or the user's
control).
One thing that makes sense is that this declares incompatibility with
Windows XP (fixes#2473).
The Copyright file explains the whole license mess. The earlier change
was apparently confusing, because the link reading "details" merely
linked to the GPLv2 license instead of explaining anything. In fact, I
meant to link to the Copyright file in the first place.
The af_lavrresample commit made compilation fail on Libav 10, so I think
it's time to require somewhat more recent dependencies.
Libav 11 is the latest release, and FFmpeg 2.4 seems to correspond to
Libav 11. So use these.
Also adjust the configure failure message. Instead of (accidentally)
printing the pkg-config versions twice, print the release version
numbers too. This is helpful, because the release version numbers are
completely different from the pkg-config ones.
I will probably remove some compatibility hacks in the following commits
too.
Nobody should use an older version. It's perfectly backwards and forward
compatible, so distros have no excuse not to package a recent version.
Older versions lack tons of bug fixes (some of them crashing bugs, and
potentially security relevant).
With love to Debian, which is still on 0.10.2.
No development activity (or even any sign of life) for almost a year.
A replacement based on youtube-dl will probably be provided before the
next mpv release. Ask on the IRC channel if you want to test.
Simplify the Lua check too: libquvi linking against a different Lua
version than mpv was a frequent issue, but with libquvi gone, no
direct dependency uses Lua, and such a clash is rather unlikely.
And make some additions.
I'm not really sure why we list dependencies that are not ours, but that
of external libraries. Still might be useful, though.
Hide --enable variants from [autodetect]'ed options and --enable/--disable
variants for [enable]'d/[disable]'d options. The hidden options are still
usable, just hidden for more readability.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
This issue hits users way too often. Copy the explanation printed by the
configure script to the README to give it more visibility.
We will fix this properly once we have a new build system.
Travis-CI [1] is a continous integration cloud service. It is free for
open-source projects and tigthly integrated tiwh GitHub so there is really
no reason for us not use it. :)
For now we are going to do a total of 4 builds, mainly to test ffmpeg/libav
API breakage:
* ffmpeg-stable, libass-stable
* ffmpeg-git, libass-stable
* libav-stable, libass-stable
* libav-git, libass-stable
The compiler that is currently used is clang for two reasons:
* running 8 build targets would be quite wasteful and take a long time
* clang is less tested and used during development than gcc (especially on
linux)
Currently Travis doesn't support OS X environments alongside Linux ones [2].
When it will, we will add a fifth build target to test OS X compilation
breakage.
README was moved to markdown to add the little build status image. I ran some
tests with my GitHub fork and couldn't get images to show up using ReStructured
Text.
