I see no point in keeping these around. Keeping wrappers for some select
libavfilter filters just because MPlayer had these filters is not a good
reason.
Ultimately, all real filtering work should go to libavfilter, and users
should get used to using vf_lavfi directly. We might even not require
the awful double-nested syntax for using libavfilter one day.
vf_rotate, vf_yadif, vf_stereo3d are kept because mpv uses them
internally. (They all extend the lavfi filters or change their
defaults.) vf_mirror is kept for symmetry with vf_flip. vf_gradfun and
vf_pullup are probably semi-popular, so I'll remove them not yet - only
after some more discussion.
This is mostly to cut down somewhat on the amount of code bloat in
video.c by moving out helper functions (including scaler kernels and
color management routines) to a separate file.
It would certainly be possible to move out more functions (eg. dithering
or CMS code) with some extra effort/refactoring, but this is a start.

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).

Nobody wanted to restore this, so it gets the boot.
If anyone still wants to volunteer to restore menu support, this would
be welcome. (I might even try it myself if I feel masochistic and like
wasting a lot of time for nothing.) But if it does get restored, it
should be done differently. There were many stupid things about how it
was done. For example, it somehow tried to pull mp_nav_events through
all the layers (including needing to "buffer" them in the demuxer),
which was needlessly complicated. It could be done simpler.
This code was already inactive, so this commit actually changes nothing.
Also keep in mind that normal DVD/BD playback still works.
Normally, vdpau decoded frames are passed directly to a suitable
vo (vo_vdpau or vo_opengl) without ever touching system memory. This
is efficient for output purposes, but prevents any of the regular
filters from being used with such frames.
This new filter implements a read-back step to pull the frames back
into system memory where they can be acted on by other filters.
Eventually the frames will be sent to the vo as if they were normal
software-decoded frames.
Note that a vdpau compatible vo must still be used to ensure that
the decoder is properly initialised.

This is basically a hack for drivers which prevent the mpv DXVA2 decoder
glue from working if OpenGL is in fullscreen mode.
Since it doesn't add any "hard" new API to the client API, some of the
code would be required for a true zero-copy hw decoding pipeline, and
sine it isn't too much code after all, this is probably acceptable.
They are useless. Not only are they actually rarely in use; but
libavcodec doesn't even output them, as libavcodec has no such sample
formats for decoded audio.
Even if it should happen that we actually still need them (e.g. if doing
direct hardware output), there are better solutions. Swapping the sign
is a fast and lossless operation and can be done inplace, so AO actually
needing it could do this directly.
If you wonder why we keep U8 instead of S8: because libavcodec does it.
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.
Move all of the channel map retrieval/negotiation code to a separate
file. This will (probably) be helpful when extending
ao_coreaudio_exclusive.c.
Nothing else changes, other than some minor cosmetics and renaming,
and changing some details for decoupling it from the ao_coreaudio.c
internals.
And split the Cocoa and Unix cases. Simplify the Cocoa case slightly by
calling mpv_main directly, instead of passing a function pointer. Also
add a comment explaining why Cocoa needs a special case at all.
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.
Somewhat less ifdeffery, higher flexibility. Now there are 3 separate
config file resolvers for 3 platforms (unix, win, osx), and they can
still interact with each other somewhat. For example, OSX for now uses
most of Unix, but adds the OSX bundle path.
This can be extended to resolve very specific platform paths, such as
location of the desktop.
Most of the Unix specific code moves to path-unix.c.
The behavior should be the same - if not, it is likely a bug.
It's entirely useless, especially now that vo.c handles screenshots in a
generic way, and requires no special VO support. There are some
potential weird use-cases, but actually I've never seen it being used.
Add a platform-specific entry-point for Windows. This will allow some
platform-specific initialization to be added without the need for ugly
ifdeffery in main.c.
As an immediate advantage, mpv can now use a unicode entry-point and
convert the command line arguments to UTF-8 before passing them to
mpv_main, so osdep_preinit can be simplified a little bit.
This requires FFmpeg git master for accelerated hardware decoding.
Keep in mind that FFmpeg must be compiled with --enable-mmal. Libav
will also work.
Most things work. Screenshots don't work with accelerated/opaque
decoding (except using full window screenshot mode). Subtitles are
very slow - even simple but huge overlays can cause frame drops.
This always uses fullscreen mode. It uses dispmanx and mmal directly,
and there are no window managers or anything on this level.
vo_opengl also kind of works, but is pretty useless and slow. It can't
use opaque hardware decoding (copy back can be used by forcing the
option --vd=lavc:h264_mmal). Keep in mind that the dispmanx backend
is preferred over the X11 ones in case you're trying on X11; but X11
is even more useless on RPI.
This doesn't correctly reject extended h264 profiles and thus doesn't
fallback to software decoding. The hw supports only up to the high
profile, and will e.g. return garbage for Hi10P video.
This sets a precedent of enabling hw decoding by default, but only
if RPI support is compiled (which most hopefully it will be disabled
on desktop Linux platforms). While it's more or less required to use
hw decoding on the weak RPI, it causes more problems than it solves
on real platforms (Linux has the Intel GPU problem, OSX still has
some cases with broken decoding.) So I can live with this compromise
of having different defaults depending on the platform.
Raspberry Pi 2 is required. This wasn't tested on the original RPI,
though at least decoding itself seems to work (but full playback was
not tested).
With a recent cleanup, rar support was stuffed into demux_playlist.c
(because "opening" rar files pretty much just lists archive contents and
adds them to a playlist using a special rar:// protocol, which will
actually access the rar file contents).
Since demux_playlist.c is probed _after_ demux_lavf.c (and should/must
be), libavformat was given the chance to detect DTS streams embedded
within the rar file. This is not really what we want, and a regression
what happened before rar listing was moved to demux_playlist.c.
Fix it by moving the rar listing into its own pseudo-demuxer, and let ir
probe before demux_lavf.c.
(Yes, this feature still has users.)
Why did this exist in the first place? Other than being completely
useless, this even caused some regressions in the past. For example,
there was the case of a laptop exposing its accelerometer as joystick
device, which led to extremely fun things due to the default mappings of
axis movement being mapped to seeking.
I suppose those who really want to use their joystick to control a media
player (???) can configure it as mouse device or so.
We've been prefering the libavcodec mp3 decoder for half a year now.
There is likely no benefit at all for using the libmpg123 one. It's just
a maintenance burden, and tricks users into thinking it's a required
dependency.
The basic idea is to use dynamically generated shaders instead of a
single monolithic file + a ton of ifdefs. Instead of having to setup
every aspect of it separately (like compiling shaders, setting uniforms,
perfoming the actual rendering steps, the GLSL parts), we generate the
GLSL on the fly, and perform the rendering at the same time. The GLSL
is regenerated every frame, but the actual compiled OpenGL-level shaders
are cached, which makes it fast again. Almost all logic can be in a
single place.
The new code is significantly more flexible, which allows us to improve
the code clarity, performance and add more features easily.
This commit is incomplete. It drops almost all previous code, and
readds only the most important things (some of them actually buggy).
The next commit will complete it - it's separate to preserve authorship
information.
Although the libraries we use for resampling (libavresample and
libswresample) do not support changing sampelrate on the fly, this makes
it easier to make sure no audio buffers are implicitly dropped. In fact,
this commit adds additional code to drain the resampler explicitly.
Changing speed twice without feeding audio in-between made it crash
with libavresample inc ertain cases (libswresample is fine). This is
probably a libavresample bug. Hopefully this will be fixed, and also I
attempted to workaround the situation that crashes it. (It seems to
point in direction of random memory corruption, though.)
Move the implementation, of which most was in tl_cue.c, to demux_cue.c.
Currently, this is illogical, because tl_cue.c still accesses MPContext.
This is going to change, and then it will be better if everything is in
demux_cue.c. This is only a separate commit to distinguish code movement
and actual work; the next commit will do the actual work.
Instead of accessing MPContext in player/timeline/*, create a separate
context struct, which the timeline loaders fill out. It turns out that
there's not much in the way too big MPContext that these need to access.
One major PITA is managing (and closing) the set of open demuxers. The
problem is that we need a list of all demuxers to make sure no unneeded
streams are enabled.
This adds a callback to the demuxer_desc struct, with the intention of
leaving to to the demuxer to call the right loader, instead of
explicitly checking the demuxer type and dispatching manually in common
code. I also considered making the timeline part of the demuxer state,
but decided against: it's too much of a mess wrt. memory management and
threading, and also doesn't make it clear who owns the child demuxers.
With the struct timeline decoupled from the demuxer state, it's at least
somewhat clear that the child demuxers are independent from the "main"
demuxer.
The actual changes to player/timeline/* are separated in the following
commits, because they're quite verbose. Some artifacts will be removed
later as soon as there's only 1 timeline loading mechanism.
Remove the confusing crap that allowed a filter using the libavfilter
bridge to be compiled without libavfilter. Instead, compile the wrappers
only if libavfilter is enabled at compile time.
The only filter which still requires it is vf_stereo3d (unfortunately).
Special-case this one. (The whole filter and how it interacts with lavfi
is pure braindeath anyway.)
If "--af=rubberband" is used, librubberband will be used to speed up or
slow down audio with pitch correction.
This still has some problems: the audio delay is not calculated
correctly, so the audio position jitters around by a few milliseconds.
This will probably ruin video timing.
gl_common.c contained the function loader (which is big) and additional
utility functions (not so big, but will grow when moving more out of
gl_video.c). Just split them. There are no changes other than some
modifications to comments.
This was apparently useful for correct interlaced scaling (although I
don't know anyone who used this). It was rarely used (if at all), had an
inconvenient output format (packed YUV), and now has a better solution
in libavfilter (using the libavfilter "scale" filter via vf_lavfi).
There is no reason to keep this filter any longer.
