Change it from explicit metadata about every hwaccel method to trying to
get it from libavcodec. As shown by add_all_hwdec_methods(), this is a
quite bumpy road, and a bit worse than expected.
This will probably cause a bunch of regressions. In particular I didn't
check all the strange decoder wrappers, which all cause some sort of
special cases each. You're volunteering for beta testing by using this
commit.
One interesting thing is that we completely get rid of mp_hwdec_ctx in
vd_lavc.c, and that HWDEC_* mostly goes away (some filters still use it,
and the VO hwdec interops still have a lot of code to set it up, so it's
not going away completely for now).
Make the VO<->decoder interface capable of supporting multiple hwdec
APIs at once. The main gain is that this simplifies autoprobing a lot.
Before this change, it could happen that the VO loaded the "wrong" hwdec
API, and the decoder was stuck with the choice (breaking hw decoding).
With the change applied, the VO simply loads all available APIs, so
autoprobing trickery is left entirely to the decoder.
In the past, we were quite careful about not accidentally loading the
wrong interop drivers. This was in part to make sure autoprobing works,
but also because libva had this obnoxious bug of dumping garbage to
stderr when using the API. libva was fixed, so this is not a problem
anymore.
The --opengl-hwdec-interop option is changed in various ways (again...),
and renamed to --gpu-hwdec-interop. It does not have much use anymore,
other than debugging. It's notable that the order in the hwdec interop
array ra_hwdec_drivers[] still matters if multiple drivers support the
same image formats, so the option can explicitly force one, if that
should ever be necessary, or more likely, for debugging. One example are
the ra_hwdec_d3d11egl and ra_hwdec_d3d11eglrgb drivers, which both
support d3d11 input.
vo_gpu now always loads the interop lazily by default, but when it does,
it loads them all. vo_opengl_cb now always loads them when the GL
context handle is initialized. I don't expect that this causes any
problems.
It's now possible to do things like changing between vdpau and nvdec
decoding at runtime.
This is also preparation for cleaning up vd_lavc.c hwdec autoprobing.
It's another reason why hwdec_devices_request_all() does not take a
hwdec type anymore.
This improves upon the previous commit, and partially rewrites it (and
other code). It does:
- disable the seeking within cache by default, and add an option to
control it
- mess with the buffer estimation reporting code, which will most likely
lead to funny regressions even if the new features are not enabled
- add a back buffer to the packet cache
- enhance the seek code so you can seek into the back buffer
- unnecessarily change a bunch of other stuff for no reason
- fuck up everything and vomit ponies and rainbows
This should actually be pretty usable. One thing we should add are some
properties to report the proper buffer state. Then the OSC could show a
nice buffer range. Also configuration of the buffers could be made
simpler. Once this has been tested enough, it can be enabled by default,
and might replace the stream cache's byte ringbuffer.
In addition it may or may not be possible to keep other buffer ranges
when seeking outside of the current range, but that would be much more
complex.
Mostly an obscure option for testing. But --videotoolbox-format can be
deprecated, as it becomes redundant.
We rely on the libavutil hwcontext implementation to reject invalid
pixfmts, or not to blow up if they are incompatible.
This is done in several steps:
1. refactor MPGLContext -> struct ra_ctx
2. move GL-specific stuff in vo_opengl into opengl/context.c
3. generalize context creation to support other APIs, and add --gpu-api
4. rename all of the --opengl- options that are no longer opengl-specific
5. move all of the stuff from opengl/* that isn't GL-specific into gpu/
(note: opengl/gl_utils.h became opengl/utils.h)
6. rename vo_opengl to vo_gpu
7. to handle window screenshots, the short-term approach was to just add
it to ra_swchain_fns. Long term (and for vulkan) this has to be moved to
ra itself (and vo_gpu altered to compensate), but this was a stop-gap
measure to prevent this commit from getting too big
8. move ra->fns->flush to ra_gl_ctx instead
9. some other minor changes that I've probably already forgotten
Note: This is one half of a major refactor, the other half of which is
provided by rossy's following commit. This commit enables support for
all linux platforms, while his version enables support for all non-linux
platforms.
Note 2: vo_opengl_cb.c also re-uses ra_gl_ctx so it benefits from the
--opengl- options like --opengl-early-flush, --opengl-finish etc. Should
be a strict superset of the old functionality.
Disclaimer: Since I have no way of compiling mpv on all platforms, some
of these ports were done blindly. Specifically, the blind ports included
context_mali_fbdev.c and context_rpi.c. Since they're both based on
egl_helpers, the port should have gone smoothly without any major
changes required. But if somebody complains about a compile error on
those platforms (assuming anybody actually uses them), you know where to
complain.
This mechanism uses system() and shouldn't even exist. x11_common.c has
its own solution for the original problem (disabling Linux DE
screensavers without MPlayer/mpv having to link a dbus lib). If that is
not sufficient, you can create a simple Lua script.
Incidentally fixes#4888.
Mouse wheel bindings have always been a cause of user confusion.
Previously, on Wayland and macOS, precise touchpads would generate AXIS
keycodes and notched mouse wheels would generate mouse button keycodes.
On Windows, both types of device would generate AXIS keycodes and on
X11, both types of device would generate mouse button keycodes. This
made it pretty difficult for users to modify their mouse-wheel bindings,
since it differed between platforms and in some cases, between devices.
To make it more confusing, the keycodes used on Windows were changed in
18a45a42d5 without a deprecation period or adequate communication to
users.
This change aims to make mouse wheel binds less confusing. Both the
mouse button and AXIS keycodes are now deprecated aliases of the new
WHEEL keycodes. This will technically break input configs on Wayland and
macOS that assign different commands to precise and non-precise scroll
events, but this is probably uncommon (if anyone does it at all) and I
think it's a fair tradeoff for finally fixing mouse wheel-related
confusion on other platforms.
mpv's mouse button numbering is based on X11 button numbering, which
allows for an arbitrary number of buttons and includes mouse wheel input
as buttons 3-6. This button numbering was used throughout the codebase
and exposed in input.conf, and it was difficult to remember which
physical button each number actually referred to and which referred to
the scroll wheel.
In practice, PC mice only have between two and five buttons and one or
two scroll wheel axes, which are more or less in the same location and
have more or less the same function. This allows us to use names to
refer to the buttons instead of numbers, which makes input.conf syntax a
lot easier to remember. It also makes the syntax robust to changes in
mpv's underlying numbering. The old MOUSE_BTNx names are still
understood as deprecated aliases of the named buttons.
This changes both the input.conf syntax and the MP_MOUSE_BTNx symbols in
the codebase, since I think both would benefit from using names over
numbers, especially since some platforms don't use X11 button numbering
and handle different mouse buttons in different windowing system events.
This also makes the names shorter, since otherwise they would be pretty
long, and it removes the high-numbered MOUSE_BTNx_DBL names, since they
weren't used.
Names are the same as used in Qt:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt.html#MouseButton-enum
This removes all GPL only code from it, and that's the whole purpose.
Also happens to be much simpler.
The "deinterlace" option still sort of exists, but only as runtime
changeable option. The main change in behavior is that the property will
not report back the actual deint state. Or in other words, if inserting
or initializing the filter fails, the deinterlace property will still
return "yes". This is in line with most recent behavior changes to
properties and options.
Both the video equalizer command/option glue, which drives this filter,
as well as the filter itself are slightly GPL contaminated. So it goes.
After this commit, "--vf=eq" will actually use libavfilter's vf_eq (if
FFmpeg was compiled in GPL mode), but it has different options and will
not listen to the equalizer VOCTRLs.
Tends to be somewhat glitchy if subtitles are enabled, and you enable
and disable tracks.
On error, this will disable --lavfi-complex, which will result in
whatever behavior.
Move multiple GL-specific things from the renderer to other places like
vo_opengl.c, vo_opengl_cb.c, and ra_gl.c.
The vp_w/vp_h parameters to gl_video_resize() make no sense anymore, and
are implicitly part of struct fbodst.
Checking the main framebuffer depth is moved to vo_opengl.c. For
vo_opengl_cb.c it always assumes 8. The API user now has to override
this manually. The previous heuristic didn't make much sense anyway.
The only remaining dependency on GL is the hwdec stuff, which is harder
to change.
Further work removing GL dependencies from the actual video renderer,
and moving them into ra backends.
Use of glInvalidateFramebuffer() falls away. I'd like to keep this, but
it's better to readd it once shader runs are in ra.
Since this code was already written for HDR, and is now per-channel
(because it works better for HDR as well), we can actually reuse this to
get very high quality gamut mapping without clipping. The only required
change is to move the tone mapping from before the gamut map to after
the gamut map. Additonally, we need to also account for changes in the
signal range as a result of applying the CMS when we compute ref_peak,
which is fortunately pretty easy because we only need to consider the
case of primaries mapping to themselves.
Since `HDR` no longer really makes sense as a label, rename it to
`--tone-mapping` in general. Also fits better with
`--tone-mapping-desat` etc.
Arguably we could also rename `--hdr-compute-peak`, but that option is
basically only useful for HDR content anyway because we don't need
information about the signal range for gamut mapping.
This (finally!) gives us reasonably high quality gamut mapping even in
the absence of an ICC profile / 3DLUT.
Remove this code because it could be argued that it contains GPL-only
code (see commit 642e963c86 for details).
The remaining aspect methods appear to work just as well, are
potentially more compatible to other players, and the code becomes much
simpler.
It's now possible to request non-dumb mode as a user, even when not
using any non-dumb features. This change is mostly intended for testing,
so I can easily switch between dumb and non-dumb mode on default
settings. The default behavior is unaffected.
Was at least somewhat broken, and is misleading. I don't really have an
idea why FFmpeg has two AVOptions here anyway. We don't need to care,
and I'm only aware of 1 user trying this option ever.
See #4579.
This is more confusing than it helps, and forces escaping more stuff.
For example, for string lists we could remove all need for escaling with
-add and -pre.
The user can simply use multiple of those options.
This replaces `vo-performance` by `vo-passes`, bringing with it a number
of changes and improvements:
1. mpv users can now introspect the vo_opengl passes, which is something
that has been requested multiple times.
2. performance data is now measured per-pass, which helps both
development and debugging.
3. since adding more passes is cheap, we can now report information for
more passes (e.g. the blit pass, and the osd pass). Note: we also
switch to nanosecond scale, to be able to measure these passes
better.
4. `--user-shaders` authors can now describe their own passes, helping
users both identify which user shaders are active at any given time
as well as helping shader authors identify performance issues.
5. the timing data per pass is now exported as a full list of samples,
so projects like Argon-/mpv-stats can immediately read out all of the
samples and render a graph without having to manually poll this
option constantly.
Due to gl_timer's design being complicated (directly reading performance
data would block, so we delay the actual read-back until the next _start
command), it's vital not to conflate different passes that might be
doing different things from one frame to another. To accomplish this,
the actual timers are stored as part of the gl_shader_cache's sc_entry,
which makes them unique for that exact shader.
Starting and stopping the time measurement is easy to unify with the
gl_sc architecture, because the existing API already relies on a
"generate, render, reset" flow, so we can just put timer_start and
timer_stop in sc_generate and sc_reset, respectively.
The ugliest thing about this code is that due to the need to keep pass
information relatively stable in between frames, we need to distinguish
between "new" and "redrawn" frames, which bloats the code somewhat and
also feels hacky and vo_opengl-specific. (But then again, this entire
thing is vo_opengl-specific)
The changes to path list options is basically getting rid of the need to
pass multiple paths to a single option. Instead, you can use the option
multiple times. The old behavior can be used by using the -set suffix
with the option.
Change some options to path lists. For example --script is now append by
default, and if you use --script-set, you need to use ":"/";" as
separator instead of ",".
--sub-paths/--audio-file-paths is a deprecated alias now, and will break
if the user tries to pass multiple paths to it. I'm assuming that if
these are used, most users will pass only 1 path anyway.
--opengl-shaders has more compatibility handling, since it's probably
rather common that users pass multiple options to it.
Also document all that in the manpage.
I'll probably regret this later, as it somewhat increases the complexity
of the option parser, rather than increasing it.
You could do mpv_set_option(h, "no-fs", ""), which would behave like
"--no-fs" on the command line. At one point, this had to be emulated for
compatibility, and printed a deprecation warning. This was almost a year
ago, so remove it.
This was especially grating because it causes problems with the
option/property unification, uses as only thing OPT_FLAG_STORE, and
behaves weird with the client API or scripts.
It can be reimplemented in a much simpler way, although it needs
slightly more code. (Simpler because less special cases.)
cehoyos, who did not agree to the LGPL relicensing, added this in commit
240b743e. The actual implementation of it is already guarded with
HAVE_GPL. The field_dominance field in the option struct won't be
guarded.
We won't keep GPL-only core code forever, so deprecate it as well. To
apply forced deinterlacing, a libavfilter filter can probably be
removed, or we merge this functionality into the --deinterlace option
(without using copyrighted stuff).
It was extended by "seru" in 8d190244. This person could not be reached
(or does not reply), and it's in the way of LGPL relicensing. Deprecate
it, and mark the (probably) affected parts of the code with HAVE_GPL. To
be fair, even though the osd.c parts were refactored from the original
code, there's probably no copyright by seru on it. But for now play it
save. The mere existence of a 3rd OSD level is certainly not
copyrightable, so you still can set osd-level to 3 - just that it does
nothing.
st2084 and std-b67 are really weird names for PQ and HLG, which is what
everybody else (including e.g. the ITU-R) calls them. Follow their
example.
I decided against naming them bt2020-pq and bt2020-hlg because it's not
necessary in this case. The standard name is only used for the other
colorspaces etc. because those literally have no other names.
List of changes:
1. Kill nom_peak, since it's a pointless non-field that stores nothing
of value and is _always_ derived from ref_white anyway.
2. Kill ref_white/--target-brightness, because the only case it really
existed for (PQ) actually doesn't need to be this general: According
to ITU-R BT.2100, PQ *always* assumes a reference monitor with a
white point of 100 cd/m².
3. Improve documentation and comments surrounding this stuff.
4. Clean up some of the code in general. Move stuff where it belongs.
"Almost" because this might contain copyright by michael, who agreed
with LGPL, but only once the core is LGPL. This is preparation for that
to happen.
Apart from that, the usual remarks apply. In particular, dec_video.c
started out quite chaotic with no modularization, but was later
basically gutted, and in general rewritten a bunch of times. Not going
to give a history lesson.
Special attention needs to be given to 3 patches by cehosos, who did not
agree to the relicensing:
240b743ebdf: --field-dominance
e32cbbf7dc3: reinit VO if aspect ratio changes
306f6243fdf: use container aspect if codec aspect unset (?)
The first patch is pretty clearly still in the current code, and needs
to be disabled for LGPL.
The functionality of the second patch is still active, but implemented
completely different, and as part of general frame parameter changes (at
the time of the patch, MPlayer already reinitialized the VO on frame
size and pixel format changes - all this was merged into a single check
for changing image parameters).
The third patch makes me a bit more uncomfortable. It appears the code
was moved to dec_video.c in de68b8f23c, and further changed in
82f0d373, 0a0bb905, and bf13bd0d. You could claim that cehoyos'
copyright still sticks. Fortunately, we implement alternative aspect
detection, which is simpler and probably preferable, and which arguably
contains none of the original code and logic, and thus should be fully
safe.
While I don't know if cehoyos' copyright actually still applies, I'm
more comfortable with making the code GPL-only for now. Also change the
default to use the (in future) plain LGPL code, and deprecate the one
associated with the GPL code, so we can eventually remove the GPL code.
But it's also possible we decide that the copyright doesn't apply, and
undo the deprecation and GPL guards.
I expect that users won't notice anything. If you ask me, the old aspect
method was probably an accidental bug instead of intentional behavior.
Although, the new aspect method was broken too, so I had to fix it.
List of changes:
1. Rename `signfs` to `scale`, to better match what it actually does
(force --sub-scale to apply to ASS subtitles), and fix the blatantly
wrong documentation (it actually specifically does *not* apply to
signs)
2. Rename `--sub-ass-style-override` to `--sub-ass-override` to help
reduce confusion between it and `--sub-ass-force-style`, as well as
pointing out that it doesn't necessarily actually override styles.
(The new `scale` option, for example, only sets
ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_FONT_SIZE, but not ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_STYLE)
3. Mention that `--sub-ass-override` is generally sort of smart about
only overriding dialog, not signs.
af_volume is deprecated, and so are its replaygain sub-options. To make
it possible to use replaygain without deprecated options (and of course
to make it available at all after af_volume is dropped), reintroduce
them as top-level options.
This also means that they are easily changeable at runtime by using them
as properties. Change the "volume" property to use the new update
mechanism as well.
We don't actually bother sharing the implementation between new and
deprecated mechanisms, as the deprecated one will simply be deleted.
For the from_dB() functions, we mention anders' copyright, although I'm
not sure if a mere formula is copyrightable. This will have to be
determined later.
This whole change is mostly untested. Our distributed human CI will take
care of it.
It's all explained in the DOCS changes. Although this option was always
kind of obscure and pointless. Until it is removed, the only reason for
setting it would be to raise the static default limit, so change its
default to INT_MAX so that it does nothing by default.
Instead of pausing if --keep-open is active, stop
at end but continue playing if seeking backwards.
And then stop again when end is reached.
Signed-off-by: wm4 <wm4@nowhere>
Over the PR, the option was renamed, and the manpage additions were
slightly changed/enhanced.
Also "announce" the plans to undeprecate it with changed semantics
later. The deprecation period is needed to warn script authors and
client API users (etc.) of the change.
This is done because everyone seems to expect --loop to loop the current
file, not the playlist. Even in cases when only 1 file is on the
playlist, the --loop-file semantics seem to be preferred.
