Schedule mpv's playloop as a high frequency timer inside the main Cocoa event loop. This has the benefit to allow accessing menus as well as resizing the window without the playback being blocked and allows to remove countless hacks from the code that involved manually pumping the event loop as well simulating manually some of the Cocoa default behaviours. A huge improvement consists in removing NSApplicationLoad. This is a C function defined in the Cocoa header and implements a minimal OSX application under ther hood so that you can use the Cocoa GUI toolkit from C/C++ without having to respect the Cocoa standards in terms of application initialization. This was bad because the behaviour implemented by NSApplicationLoad was hard to customize and had several gotchas especially in the menu department. mpv was changed to be just a nib-less application. All the Cocoa part is still generated in code but the event handling is now not dissimilar to what is present in a stock Mac application. As a part of reviewing the initialization process, I also removed all of `osdep/macosx_finder_args`. The useful parts of the code were moved to `osdep/macosx_appication` which has the broaded responsibility of managing the full lifecycle of the Cocoa application. By consequence the `--enable-macosx-finder` configure switch was killed as well, as this feature is always enabled. Another change the users will notice is that when using a bundle the `--quiet` option will be inserted much earlier in the initializaion process. This results in mpv not spamming mpv.log anymore with all the initialization outputs. |

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. For more information see the output of ``./configure --help`` for a list of options, or look at the list of enabled and disabled features printed after running ``./configure``. If you think you have support for some feature installed but configure fails to detect it, the file ``config.log`` may contain information about the reasons for the failure. 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 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. Bug reports =========== Please use the `issues 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 ======== You can find us on IRC in ``#mpv-player`` on ``irc.freenode.net`` .. _changes: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/man/en/changes.rst .. _mpv-build: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv-build .. _homebrew-mpv: https://github.com/mpv-player/homebrew-mpv .. _issues tracker: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues
