OpenSSL and GnuTLS are still causing this problem (although FFmpeg could
be blamed as well - but not really). In particular, it was happening to
libmpv users and in cases the pseudo-gui profile is used. This was
because all signal handling is in the terminal code, so if terminal is
disabled, it won't be set. This was obviously a questionable shortcut.
Avoid further problems by always blocking the signal. This is done even
for libmpv, despite our policy of not messing with global state.
Explicitly document this in the libmpv docs. It turns out that a version
bump to 1.17 was forgotten for the addition of MPV_FORMAT_BYTE_ARRAY, so
document that change as part of 1.16.
This creates the window before the first file is loaded. This was
requested a bunch of times, but on the other hand a change to make this
behavior the default was reverted some time ago, because other users
hated it.
The client API (libmpv) and encoding (--o) have slightly different
defaults from the command line player. Instead of doing a bunch of calls
to set the options explicitly, use profiles. This is simpler and has the
advantage that they can be listed on command line (instead of possibly
forcing the user to find and read the code to know all the details).
Since commit 7381db60, strings like "~desktop/" were expanded as
platform-specific paths by mpv. Apparently this similarity to standard
Unix shell expansion caused confusion, so change it to "~~desktop/". The
shell doesn't expand this, so it should be better.
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 should take care of the endless complaints about the default
location for screenshots (and will of course create new ones).
If the screenshot-template is set to an absolute path, the directory
won't be used. So this should be reasonably compatible.
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.
Remove --keep-open. Switch to --idle=once. This effectively makes the
player quit after end of playback, but still shows the idle screen if it
was started with no files.
Starting the command line player with --no-terminal, the terminal was
sitll initialized. This happened because update_logging() used the
option value before the options were parsed. Fix by moving down the
initialization to before the point where it's actually needed.
This can be set to select a number of default settings that help mpv
pretend that it has a GUI.
I haven't decided yet whether I really want to use the profile mechanism
for this. There are a number of weird details that are not so easy to
handle with profiles, such as disabling pseudo-gui mode again (you can't
unset profiles directly). So this might change. But for now it will do.
There also should be a better way to store builtin profiles.
Unfortunately, the old crappy MPlayer config file parser needs on-disk
files, so just use a bunch of function calls for now.
Starting to get tired of seeing the full config.h in verbose output
every time. Make it slightly more elegant by outputting the list of
satisfied dependencies instead.
main() being called with argc==0 is probably possible. Fix by skipping
the program name early. (I already changed and reverted this once, but
this time we make sure that it's less likely to confuse the skipped argv
with main()'s argv by naming it "options".)
Move the command line parsing and some other things to the common init
routine shared between command line player and client API. This means
they're using almost exactly the same code now.
The main intended side effect is that the client API will load mpv.conf;
though still only if config loading is enabled.
(The cplayer still avoids creating an extra thread, passes a command
line, and prints an exit status to the terminal. It also has some
different defaults.)
A while ago, we made mpv output the native number of channels by
default, instead of stereo. I assumed this was not wanted for encode
mode.
This commit keeps the assumption, but allows setting the number of audio
output channels at all, instead of always forcing stereo. (Pretty much a
hack.)
Setting the input context is always called, both in cplayer and libmpv,
and under HAVE_COCOA. Unsetting the input context was done only the
cplayer uninit call. Also it was under HAVE_COCOA_APPLICATION, so it was
not unset in libmpv (dangling pointer).
The code in main.c calls exit() explicitly, but the code is actually
easier to follow by simply exiting from main() instead. The exit() call
in av_log.c happens only on severely broken builds, so replace it with
abort().
(Shuts up rpmlint warnings.)
This reverts commit acc5e8f574.
As expected, some didn't like this. Others won't like this revert.
Whatever.
See #1561.
This should go into mpv 0.8.0 before it's released.
Before this change, window creation was delayed until the video was
initialized. This guaranteed that the first window size was that of the
video, so the WM would place it correctly.
Some time ago, it was requested on the IRC channel that --force-window
should not do this. Sometimes, it can take a while until video is
initialized, e.g. when youtube-dl is used (which incurs lots of network
delay). In this case, it's awkward that it takes so long until a window
(any window) is shown.
On the other hand, this can cause incorrect window placement with some
WMs. We simply hope that this won't happen with modern WMs. (Although it
does with the WM I use, crappy old IceWM.)
In ancient times, this was needed because it was not default, and many
VOs had problems with it. But it was always default in mpv, and all VOs
are required to deal with it. Also, running --fixed-vo=no is not useful
and just creates weird corner cases. Get rid of it.
This function is always available, which is reflected by the fact that
the configure check doesn't actually bother to check for its existence.
Instead, MinGW and Cygwin imply it. The check was probably "needed" when
the priority code was still in a separate source file.
Remove the check, and use _WIN32 for testing for the win32 API (in a
bunch of other places too).
We now use threads and other pthread API a lot, and not always we use it
from threads created with pthread_create() (or the main thread). As I
understand, with static linking we would have to use
pthread_win32_thread_attach/detach_np() every time we enter or leave a
foreign thread. We don't do this, and it's not feasible either, so it's
just broken.
This still should work with dynamic pthreads-win32. The MinGW pthread
implementation should be unaffected from all of this.
Most of this is explained in the code comments. This change should
improve performance with vapoursynth, especially if concurrent requests
are used.
This should change nothing if vf_vapoursynth is not in the filter chain,
since non-threaded filters obviously can not asynchronously finish
filtering of frames.
Mostly of cosmetic nature. Move initialization to the same place where
another component (cocoa) will start accessing the input context from a
foreign thread.
It was requested that mpv should print what features etc. have been
enabled at compile time. It can print the configure command line, but it
obviously doesn't include autodetected features.
I tried to think of a nicer way than dumping the config.h as text, but
this was still the simplest way.
Until now, these options took effect only at program start. This could
be confusing when e.g. doing "mpv list.m3u --shuffle". Make them always
take effect when a playlist is loaded either via a playlist file, or
with the "loadlist" command.
This is simply not allowed, and doing it triggered an assertion. It's
still not allowed, because the terminal and related functionality is a
global resource, and there doesn't seem to be a sane way to manage the
signal handlers.
But be a bit nicer, and just the terminal if it's already in use.
Note that terminal _output_ happens anyway. This becomes usable with
this commit. To facilitate logging-only usage further, also explicitly
disable terminal input, so that "terminal=yes" can be used for logging
without much interference with other things. (It'll still overwrite some
signal handlers, though.)
If you played e.g. an audio-only file and something bad happened that
interrupted playback, the exit message could say "No files played".
This was awkward, so show a different message in this case.
Also overhaul how the exit status is reported in order to make this
easier. This includes things such as not reporting a playback error
when loading playlists (playlists contain no video or audio, which
was considered an error).
Not sure if I'm happy with this, but for now it seems like a slight
improvement.
Most things should be allowed to access the client API unconditionally
(for example for sending events), so move destroying the client API
down. Also, mp_uninit_ipc() should happen before the point at which all
clients are shutdown, or there will be a small time window in which new
clients can be created after destroying them all.
After @frau's split of macosx_events from macosx_application, `is_cplayer' is
not needed anymore. At the moment only global events such as Media Keys and
Apple Remote work, because the VO-level ones were hardcoded to be disabled.
(that will be fix in a later commit ).
