Matroska makes it pretty hard to resync correctly on broken files: random data returns "valid" EBML IDs with a high probability, and when trying to skip them it's likely that you skip a random amount of data (instead of considering the element length invalid). Improve upon this by skipping known level 1 elements only. Consider everything else invalid and call the resync code. This might result in annoying behavior when Matroska adds new level 1 elements, although it won't be particularly harmful. Matroska doesn't really allow us to do better (even mkvtoolnix explicitly checks for known level 1 elements). Since we now don't always want to combine EBML element skipping and resyncing, remove ebml_read_skip_or_resync_cluster(), and make ebml_read_skip() more tolerant against skipping broken elements. Also, don't resync when reading sub-elements, and instead do resyncing when reading them results in an error. |

mpv
Overview
mpv is a movie player based on MPlayer and mplayer2. It supports a wide variety of video file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types.
If you are wondering what's different from mplayer2 and MPlayer you can read more about the changes.
Compilation
Compiling with full features requires development files for several external libraries. Below is a list of some important requirements.
The mpv build system uses waf but we don't store it in your source tree. The script './bootstrap.py' will download the latest version of waf that was tested with the build system.
For a list of the available build options use ./waf configure --help. If
you think you have support for some feature installed but configure fails to
detect it, the file build/config.log may contain information about the
reasons for the failure.
NOTE: To avoid cluttering the output with unreadable spam, --help only shows
one of the two switches for each option. If the option is autodetected by
default, the --disable-*** switch is printed; if the option is disabled by
default, the --enable-*** switch is printed. Either way, you can use
--enable-*** or --disable-** regardless of what is printed by --help.
To build the software you can use ./waf build: the result of the compilation
will be located in build/mpv. You can use ./waf install to install mpv
to the prefix after it is compiled.
NOTE: Using the old build system (with ./old-configure) should still work,
but will be removed in a future version of mpv.
Essential dependencies (incomplete list):
- gcc or clang
- X development headers (xlib, X extensions, libvdpau, libGL, libXv, ...)
- Audio output development headers (libasound, pulseaudio)
- fribidi, freetype, fontconfig development headers (for libass)
- libass
- FFmpeg libraries (libavutil libavcodec libavformat libswscale libpostproc)
- libjpeg
- libquvi if you want to play Youtube videos directly
- libx264/libmp3lame/libfdk-aac if you want to use encoding (has to be explicitly enabled when compiling ffmpeg)
Most of the above libraries are available in suitable versions on normal Linux distributions. However FFmpeg is an exception (distro versions may be too old to work at all or work well). For that reason you may want to use the separately available build wrapper (mpv-build) that first compiles FFmpeg libraries and libass, and then compiles the player statically linked against those.
If you are running Mac OSX and using homebrew we provide homebrew-mpv, an up to date formula that compiles mpv with sensible dependencies and defaults for OSX.
FFmpeg vs. Libav
Generally, mpv should work with the latest release as well as the git version of both FFmpeg and Libav. But FFmpeg is preferred, and some mpv features work with FFmpeg only. See the wiki article about the issue.
Bug reports
Please use the issue tracker provided by GitHub to send us bug reports or feature requests.
Contributing
For small changes you can just send us pull requests through GitHub. For bigger changes come and talk to us on IRC before you start working on them. It will make code review easier for both parties later on.
Contacts
These forms of contact are meant to ask questions about mpv usage, give feedback on mpv and discuss it's development.
If possible, please avoid posting bugs here and use the issue tracker instead.
