Remove the vaguely defined plane_bits and component_bits fields from
struct mp_imgfmt_desc. Add weird replacements for existing uses. Remove
the bytes[] field, replace uses with bpp[].
Fix some potential alignment issues in existing code. As a compromise,
split mp_image_pixel_ptr() into 2 functions, because I think it's a bad
idea to implicitly round, but for some callers being slightly less
strict is convenient.
This shouldn't really change anything. In fact, it's a 100% useless
change. I'm just cleaning up what I started almost 8 years ago (see
commit 00653a3eb0). With this I've decided to keep mp_imgfmt_desc,
just removing the weird parts, and keeping the saner parts.
This is really basic for planar image data access; not sure why there
weren't such helpers before.
They also handle trickier formats that use bit-packing, or they would be
mich simpler. (This affects only BGR4/BGR4/MONOW/MONOH, I hope whoever
invented them is proud of triggering so many special cases for so little
gain.)
This is mostly for testing. It adds passing through the metadata through
the video chain. The metadata can be manipulated with vf_format. Support
for zimg alpha conversion (if built with zimg after it gained alpha
support) is implemented. Support premultiplied input in vo_gpu.
Some things still seem to be buggy.
This was speculatively added 2 years ago in preparation for something
that apparently never happened. The D3D code was added as an "example",
but this too was never used/finished.
No reason to keep this.
Generally, using x86 SIMD efficiently (or crash-free) requires aligning
all data on boundaries of 16, 32, or 64 (depending on instruction set
used). 64 bytes is needed or AVX-512, 32 for old AVX, 16 for SSE. Both
FFmpeg and zimg usually require aligned data for this reason.
FFmpeg is very unclear about alignment. Yes, it requires you to align
data pointers and strides. No, it doesn't tell you how much, except
sometimes (libavcodec has a legacy-looking avcodec_align_dimensions2()
API function, that requires a heavy-weight AVCodecContext as argument).
Sometimes, FFmpeg will take a shit on YOUR and ITS OWN alignment. For
example, vf_crop will randomly reduce alignment of data pointers,
depending on the crop parameters. On the other hand, some libavfilter
filters or libavcodec encoders may randomly crash if they get the wrong
alignment. I have no idea how this thing works at all.
FFmpeg usually doesn't seem to signal alignment internal anywhere, and
usually leaves it to av_malloc() etc. to allocate with proper alignment.
libavutil/mem.c currently has a ALIGN define, which is set to 64 if
FFmpeg is built with AVX-512 support, or as low as 16 if built without
any AVX support. The really funny thing is that a normal FFmpeg build
will e.g. align tiny string allocations to 64 bytes, even if the machine
does not support AVX at all.
For zimg use (in a later commit), we also want guaranteed alignment.
Modern x86 should actually not be much slower at unaligned accesses, but
that doesn't help. zimg's dumb intrinsic code apparently randomly
chooses between aligned or unaligned accesses (depending on compiler, I
guess), and on some CPUs these can even cause crashes. So just treat the
requirement to align as a fact of life.
All this means that we should probably make sure our own allocations are
64 bit aligned. This still doesn't guarantee alignment in all cases, but
it's slightly better than before.
This also makes me wonder whether we should always override libavcodec's
buffer pool, just so we have a guaranteed alignment. Currently, we only
do that if --vd-lavc-dr is used (and if that actually works). On the
other hand, it always uses DR on my machine, so who cares.
See manpage additions. This is a huge hack. You can bet there are shit
tons of bugs. It's literally forcing square pegs into round holes.
Hopefully, the manpage wall of text makes it clear enough that the whole
shit can easily crash and burn. (Although it shouldn't literally crash.
That would be a bug. It possibly _could_ start a fire by entering some
sort of endless loop, not a literal one, just something where it tries
to do work without making progress.)
(Some obvious bugs I simply ignored for this initial version, but
there's a number of potential bugs I can't even imagine. Normal playback
should remain completely unaffected, though.)
How this works is also described in the manpage. Basically, we demux in
reverse, then we decode in reverse, then we render in reverse.
The decoding part is the simplest: just reorder the decoder output. This
weirdly integrates with the timeline/ordered chapter code, which also
has special requirements on feeding the packets to the decoder in a
non-straightforward way (it doesn't conflict, although a bugmessmass
breaks correct slicing of segments, so EDL/ordered chapter playback is
broken in backward direction).
Backward demuxing is pretty involved. In theory, it could be much
easier: simply iterating the usual demuxer output backward. But this
just doesn't fit into our code, so there's a cthulhu nightmare of shit.
To be specific, each stream (audio, video) is reversed separately. At
least this means we can do backward playback within cached content (for
example, you could play backwards in a live stream; on that note, it
disables prefetching, which would lead to losing new live video, but
this could be avoided).
The fuckmess also meant that I didn't bother trying to support
subtitles. Subtitles are a problem because they're "sparse" streams.
They need to be "passively" demuxed: you don't try to read a subtitle
packet, you demux audio and video, and then look whether there was a
subtitle packet. This means to get subtitles for a time range, you need
to know that you demuxed video and audio over this range, which becomes
pretty messy when you demux audio and video backwards separately.
Backward display is the most weird (and potentially buggy) part. To
avoid that we need to touch a LOT of timing code, we negate all
timestamps. The basic idea is that due to the navigation, all
comparisons and subtractions of timestamps keep working, and you don't
need to touch every single of them to "reverse" them.
E.g.:
bool before = pts_a < pts_b;
would need to be:
bool before = forward
? pts_a < pts_b
: pts_a > pts_b;
or:
bool before = pts_a * dir < pts_b * dir;
or if you, as it's implemented now, just do this after decoding:
pts_a *= dir;
pts_b *= dir;
and then in the normal timing/renderer code:
bool before = pts_a < pts_b;
Consequently, we don't need many changes in the latter code. But some
assumptions inhererently true for forward playback may have been broken
anyway. What is mainly needed is fixing places where values are passed
between positive and negative "domains". For example, seeking and
timestamp user display always uses positive timestamps. The main mess is
that it's not obvious which domain a given variable should or does use.
Well, in my tests with a single file, it suddenly started to work when I
did this. I'm honestly surprised that it did, and that I didn't have to
change a single line in the timing code past decoder (just something
minor to make external/cached text subtitles display). I committed it
immediately while avoiding thinking about it. But there really likely
are subtle problems of all sorts.
As far as I'm aware, gstreamer also supports backward playback. When I
looked at this years ago, I couldn't find a way to actually try this,
and I didn't revisit it now. Back then I also read talk slides from the
person who implemented it, and I'm not sure if and which ideas I might
have taken from it. It's possible that the timestamp reversal is
inspired by it, but I didn't check. (I think it claimed that it could
avoid large changes by changing a sign?)
VapourSynth has some sort of reverse function, which provides a backward
view on a video. The function itself is trivial to implement, as
VapourSynth aims to provide random access to video by frame numbers (so
you just request decreasing frame numbers). From what I remember, it
wasn't exactly fluid, but it worked. It's implemented by creating an
index, and seeking to the target on demand, and a bunch of caching. mpv
could use it, but it would either require using VapourSynth as demuxer
and decoder for everything, or replacing the current file every time
something is supposed to be played backwards.
FFmpeg's libavfilter has reversal filters for audio and video. These
require buffering the entire media data of the file, and don't really
fit into mpv's architecture. It could be used by playing a libavfilter
graph that also demuxes, but that's like VapourSynth but worse.
Also rename stereo3d to stereo_in. The only real change is that the
vo_gpu OSD code now uses the actual stereo 3D mode, instead of the
--video-steroe-mode value. (Why does this vo_gpu code even exist?)
This means vf_vapoursynth doesn't need a hack to work around the filter
code, and libavfilter filters now actually get the frame_rate field on
input pads set.
The libavfilter doxygen says the frame_rate field is only to be set if
the frame rate is known to be constant, and uses the word "must" (which
probably means they really mean it?) - but ffmpeg.c sets the field to
mere guesses anyway, and it looks like this normally won't lead to
problems.
Useful for libavfilter. Somewhat risky, because we can't ensure the
consistency of the unknown side data (but this is a general problem with
side data, and libavfilter filters will usually get it wrong too _if_
there are conflict cases).
Fixes#5569.
This is preparation for a change in vd_lavc.c: it should not have to
access the demuxer (to pass along closed captions), so the idea is to
make them part of mp_image, and to let the layer above vd_lavc propagate
the buffer.
Don't bother with preserving them for mp_image->AVFrame, because we
don't need this.
It seems this will be useful for Rokchip DRM hwcontext integration.
DRM hwcontexts have additional internal structure which can be different
depending on the decoder, and which is not part of the generic hwcontext
API. Rockchip has 1 layer, which EGL interop happens to translate to a
RGB texture, while VAAPI (mapped as DRM hwcontext) will use multiple
layers. Both will use sw_format=nv12, and thus are indistinguishable on
the mp_image_params level. But this is needed to initialize the EGL
mapping and the vo_gpu video renderer correctly.
We hope that the layer count is enough to tell whether EGL will
translate the data to a RGB texture (vs. 2 texture resembling raw nv12
data). For that we introduce MP_IMAGE_HW_FLAG_OPAQUE.
This commit adds the flag, infrastructure to set it, and an "example"
for D3D11.
The D3D11 addition is quite useless at this point. But later we want to
get rid of d3d11_update_image_attribs() anyway, while we still need a
way to force d3d11vpp filter insertion, so maybe it has some
justification (who knows). In any case it makes testing this easier.
Obviously it also adds some basic support for triggering the opaque
format for decoding, which will use a driver-specific format, but which
is not supported in shaders. The opaque flag is not used to determine
whether d3d11vpp needs to be inserted, though.
Now you need FFmpeg git, or something.
This also gets rid of the last real use of gpu_memcpy(). libavutil does
that itself. (vaapi.c still used it, but it was essentially unused,
because the code path isn't really in use anymore. It wasn't even
included due to the d3d-hwaccel dependency in wscript.)
See "Copyright" file for caveats.
This changes the remaining "almost LGPL" files to LGPL, because we think
that the conditions the author set for these was finally fulfilled.
This adds handling of spherical video metadata: retrieving it from
demux_lavf and demux_mkv, passing it through filters, and adjusting it
with vf_format. This does not include support for rendering this type of
video.
We don't expect we need/want to support the other projection types like
cube maps, so we don't include that for now. They can be added later as
needed.
Also raise the maximum sizes of stringified image params, since they
can get really long.
Since these need to be refcounted, we throw them directly into struct
mp_image instead of being part of mp_colorspace. Even though they would
semantically make more sense in mp_colorspace, having them there is
really awkward because mp_colorspace is passed around and stored a lot,
and this way their lifetime is exactly tied to the lifetime of the
mp_image associated with it.
Refactor the image allocation code, and expose part of it as helper
code. This aims towards allowing callers to easily allocate mp_image
references from custom-allocated linear buffers. This is exposing only
as much as what should be actually required.
Since michael was somewhat involved in it, wait with the actual license
change until the core is relicensed. Thus mark it as "Almost LGPL.".
The worrisome part about mp_image.c is that it was created by cehoyos
(which disagreed with LGPL) in commit f2dee327b2. But it turns out it
was a patch by someone else (who agreed with LGPL).
For some reason, the patch was actually slightly modified by cehoyos for
no reason (messed with the include statements), so we mess them back,
just to be sure.
Other than this, there were some commits that added support for new
IMGFMTs over the years. Some of these were by people we didn't ask or we
didn't get permission from. But since the original mp_image code was
replaced by more generic code using FFmpeg pixdesc, none of these
changes are left anyway.
One additional change by cehoyos (115bfb9762) has been removed as well
(when "direct rendering" was dropped from the filter chain).
Preparation for enabling hw filters. mp_image_params can't have an
AVHWFramesContext reference (because it can't hold any allocations, and
isn't meant to hold "active" data in the first place.
So just use a mp_image. It has all real data removed, because that would
essentially leak 1 frame once the decoder or renderer don't need it
anymore.
Helps with gif, probably does unwanted things with other formats.
This doesn't handle --end quite correctly, but this could be added
later.
Fixes#3924.
The hw_subfmt field roughly corresponds to the field
AVHWFramesContext.sw_format in ffmpeg. The ffmpeg one is of the type
AVPixelFormat (instead of the underlying hardware format), so it's a
good idea to switch to this too for preparation.
Now the hw_subfmt field is an mp_imgfmt instead of an opaque/API-
specific number. VDPAU and Direct3D11 already used mp_imgfmt, but
Videotoolbox and VAAPI had to be switched.
One somewhat user-visible change is that the verbose log will now always
show the hw_subfmt as image format, instead of as nonsensical number.
(In the end it would be good if we could switch to AVHWFramesContext
completely, but the upstream API is incomplete and doesn't cover
Direct3D11 and Videotoolbox.)
This has two reasons:
1. I tend to add new fields to this metadata, and every time I've done
so I've consistently forgotten to update all of the dozens of places in
which this colorimetry metadata might end up getting used. While most
usages don't really care about most of the metadata, sometimes the
intend was simply to “copy” the colorimetry metadata from one struct to
another. With this being inside a substruct, those lines of code can now
simply read a.color = b.color without having to care about added or
removed fields.
2. It makes the type definitions nicer for upcoming refactors.
In going through all of the usages, I also expanded a few where I felt
that omitting the “young” fields was a bug.
Instead of doing HDR tone mapping on an ad-hoc basis inside
pass_colormanage, the reference peak of an image is now part of the
image params (alongside colorspace, gamma, etc.) and tone mapping is
done whenever peak_src != peak_dst.
To get sensible behavior when mixing HDR and SDR content and displays,
target-brightness is a generic filler for "the assumed brightness of SDR
content".
This gets rid of the weird display_scaled hack, sets the framework
for multiple HDR functions with difference reference peaks, and allows
us to (in a future commit) autodetect the right source peak from
the HDR metadata.
(Apart from metadata, the source peak can also be controlled via
vf_format. For HDR content this adjusts the overall image brightness,
for SDR content it's like simulating a different exposure)
No reason to do so. See also commit 240ba92b.
Since now many mp_images will never have a pixel aspect ratio set,
redefine a 0/0 aspect ratio to "undefined" instead invalid. This also
brings it more in line with how decoder vs. container aspect ratios are
handled.
Most callers seem to be fine with the new behavior.
mp_image_params_valid() in particular has to be adjusted, or some things
stop working due to mp_images not becoming valid after setting size and
format.
For hwaccel formats, mp_image will merely point to a hardware surface
handle. In these cases, the mp_image_params.imgfmt field describes the
format insufficiently, because it mostly only describes the type of the
hardware format, not its underlying format.
Introduce hw_subfmt to describe the underlying format. It makes sense to
use it with most hwaccels, though for now it will be used with the
following commit only.
MPlayer traditionally always used the display aspect ratio, e.g. 16:9,
while FFmpeg uses the sample (aka pixel) aspect ratio.
Both have a bunch of advantages and disadvantages. Actually, it seems
using sample aspect ratio is generally nicer. The main reason for the
change is making mpv closer to how FFmpeg works in order to make life
easier. It's also nice that everything uses integer fractions instead
of floats now (except --video-aspect option/property).
Note that there is at least 1 user-visible change: vf_dsize now does
not set the display size, only the display aspect ratio. This is
because the image_params d_w/d_h fields did not just set the display
aspect, but also the size (except in encoding mode).
The vf_format suboption is replaced with --video-output-levels (a global
option and property). In particular, the parameter is removed from
mp_image_params. The mechanism is moved to the "video equalizer", which
also handles common video output customization like brightness and
contrast controls.
The new code is slightly cleaner, and the top-level option is slightly
more user-friendly than as vf_format sub-option.
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.
mpv had refcounted frames before libav*, so we were not using
libavutil's facilities. Change this and drop our own code.
Since AVFrames are not actually refcounted, and only the image data
they reference, the semantics change a bit. This affects mainly
mp_image_pool, which was operating on whole images instead of buffers.
While we could work on AVBufferRefs instead (and use AVBufferPool),
this doesn't work for use with hardware decoding, which doesn't
map cleanly to FFmpeg's reference counting. But it worked out. One
weird consequence is that we still need our custom image data
allocation function (for normal image data), because AVFrame's uses
multiple buffers.
There also seems to be a timing-dependent problem with vaapi (the
pool appears to be "leaking" surfaces). I don't know if this is a new
problem, or whether the code changes just happened to cause it more
often. Raising the number of reserved surfaces seemed to fix it, but
since it appears to be timing dependent, and I couldn't find anything
wrong with the code, I'm just going to assume it's not a new bug.
MP_IMGFIELD_TOP/MP_IMGFIELD_BOTTOM were completely unused, and
MP_IMGFIELD_ORDERED was always set (even though vf_vdpaupp.c strangely
checked for the latter).
Because gcc (and clang) is a goddamn PITA and unnecessarily warns if
the universal initializer for structs is used (like mp_image x = {})
and the first member of the struct is also a struct, move the w/h
fields to the top.
They are redundant. They were used by draw_bmp.c only, and only in a
special code path that 1. used fixed image formats, and 2. had image
sized perfectly aligned to chroma boundaries (so computing the chroma
width/height is trivial).
There's literally no reason why these functions have to be inline (they
might be performance critical, but then the function call overhead isn't
going to matter at all).
Uninline them and move them to mp_image.c. Drop the header file and fix
all uses of it.
