Make more aspects of the OSD font customizable. This also affects the
font used for unstyled subtitles (such as SRT), or when using the
--no-ass option. This adds back some customizability that was lost with
commit 74e7a1 (osd: use libass for OSD rendering).
Removed options:
--ass-border-color
--ass-color
--font
--subfont
--subfont-text-scale
Added options:
--osd-color
--osd-border
--osd-back-color
--osd-shadow-color
--osd-font
--osd-font-size
--osd-border-size
--osd-margin-x
--osd-margin-y
--osd-shadow-offset
--osd-spacing
--sub-scale
The font size is now specified in pixels as it would be rendered on a
window with a height of 720 pixels. OSD and subtitles are always scaled
with the window height, so specifying or expecting an absolute font
size doesn't make sense.
Such scaled pixel units are used to specify font border etc. as well.
(Note: the font size is directly passed to libass. How the fonts are
actually rasterized is outside of our control, but in theory ASS font
sizes map to "script" pixels and then are scaled to screen size.)
The default settings should be about the same, with slight difference
due to rounding to the new scales.
The OSD and subtitle fonts are not separately configurable. It has
limited use and would double the number of newly added options, which
would be more confusing than helpful. It could be easily added later,
should the need arise.
Other small details that change:
- ASS_Style.Encoding is not set to -1 for subs anymore
(assuming subs use VSFilter direction in -no-ass mode too)
- use a different WrapStyle for OSD
- ASS forced styles are not applied to OSD
Remove VFCTRL_DRAW_OSD, VFCAP_EOSD_FILTER, VFCAP_EOSD_RGBA, VFCAP_EOSD,
VOCTRL_DRAW_EOSD, VOCTRL_GET_EOSD_RES, VOCTRL_QUERY_EOSD_FORMAT.
Remove draw_osd_with_eosd(), which rendered the OSD by calling
VOCTRL_DRAW_EOSD. Change VOs to call osd_draw() directly, which takes
a callback as argument. (This basically works like the old OSD API,
except multiple OSD bitmap formats are supported and caching is
possible.)
Remove all mentions of "eosd". It's simply "osd" now.
Make OSD size per-OSD-object, as they can be different when using
vf_sub. Include display_par/video_par in resolution change detection.
Fix the issue with margin borders in vo_corevideo.
This was an extremely obscure setting, as it was used only with vo_gl
if its scaled-osd suboption was used. If you really want this, you can
set the desired ass-hinting value directly, and there will be literally
no loss in functionality.
Note that this didn't actually test whether the EOSD was scaled.
Basically, it only checked whether vo_gl had the scaled-osd suboption
set.
Before this commit, the OSD was drawn using libass, but the resulting
bitmaps were converted to the internal mplayer OSD format. We want to
get rid of the old OSD format, because it's monochrome, and can't even
be rendered directly using modern video output methods (like with
OpenGL/Direct3D/VDPAU).
Change it so that VOs can get the ASS images directly, without
additional conversions. (This also has the consequence that the OSD can
render colors now.) Currently, this is vo_gl3 only. The other VOs still
use the old method. Also, the old OSD format is still used for all VOs
with DVD subtitles (spudec).
Rewrite sub.c. Remove all the awkward flags and bounding boxes and
change detection things. It turns out that much of that isn't needed.
Move code related to converting subtitle images to img_convert.c. (It
has to be noted that all of these conversions were already done before
in some places, and that the new code actually makes less use of them.)
Remove subtitle selection code setting osd->ass_track directly and
vf_ass/vf_vo code rendering the track directly with libass. Instead,
do track selection and rendering with dec_sub.c functions.
Before, mpctx->set_of_ass_tracks[] contained bare libass tracks
generated from external subtitle files. For use with dec_sub.c, it now
contains struct sh_sub instances with decoder already initialized.
This commit breaks the sub_step command ('g' and 'y' keys) for
libass-rendered subtitles. It could be fixed, but it's so useless -
especially as with the existing implementation there's no practical
way to get subtitle delay back to normal after using it - that I
didn't bother.

To draw libass subtitles, the code used ASS_Renderer objects created
in vf_vo (VO rendering) or vf_ass. They were destroyed and recreated
together with the video filter chain. Change the code to use a single
persistent renderer instance stored in the main osd_state struct.
Because libass seems to misbehave if fonts are changed while a
renderer exists (even if ass_set_fonts() is called on the renderer
afterwards), the renderer is recreated after adding embedded fonts.
The known benefits are simpler code and avoiding delays when switching
between timeline parts from different files (libass fontconfig
initialization, needed when creating a new renderer, can take a long
time in some cases; switching between files rebuilds the video filter
chain, and this required recreating the renderers). On the other hand,
I'm not sure whether this could cause inefficient bitmap caching in
libass; explicitly resetting the renderer in some cases could be
beneficial. The new code does not keep the distinction of separate
renderers for vsfilter munged aspect vs normal; this means that
changing subtitle tracks can lose cache for the previous track.
The new code always sets some libass parameters on each rendering
call, which were previously only set if they had potentially changed.
This should be harmless as libass itself has checks to see if the
values differ from previous ones.

Libass rendering uses two renderer objects to support both VSFilter
aspect ratio (mis)behavior emulation and correct rendering. When
option values were changed during playback the changes were applied to
the renderer used for the currently active track only, and old values
could be used if the user then switched to a track using the other
renderer object. Fix to update both renderers.
The --ass-force-style option was only applied when the main libass
library handle was created. Thus any per-file option changes later had
no effect. Do the ass_set_style_overrides() call in per-file
initialization instead so that possible changes will be applied. Also
move the option variable to the option struct.
Current libass will crash (usually) if you set style overrides to a
nonempty value, then an empty one. It'll be easier to trigger this bug
after this commit, but the problem is not on mplayer2 side. The fix is
trivial so hopefully there will be a fixed libass soon.
