This reverts commit 873ae0de2a.
The next commit will restore this functionality, with the
following differences from the reverted commit:
- Smaller and simpler code change.
- On bad scale: use "Invalid value" (compared to "no such property").
- Doesn't combine the docs for window-scale and current-window-scale.
- Doesn't remove the docs for window-scale behavior prior to 0.31.0.
Somewhat confusingly, mpv has both a window-scale option and a
current-window-scale property. The documentation lists window-scale
under properties (and it is technically is one), but at its core it is
actually an option which means it behaves subtly different. Options in
mpv are runtime-configurable, but they only change anything if the value
of the option itself changes. window-scale is an option and not meant to
keep track of the actual scale of the window (intended behavior
introduced by d07b7f0). This causes window-scale to do nothing in
certain cases (ex: the window is manually resized and window-scale is
set to 1.00 again). This is logical and consistent with the behavior of
the rest of the mpv options, but it also makes it a poor candidate for
setting the mpv window scale dynamically.
As a remedy, we can just make current-window-scale writeable instead.
current-window-scale is intended to always report the actual scale of
the window and keep track of any window size changes made by the user.
By making this property also writeable, it allows the user to have more
intuitive behavior (i.e. setting current-window-scale to 1.00 always
sets the window to a scale of 1). Additionally, the default input.conf
is changed to use current-window-scale instead of window-scale. The
window-scale documentation under property list is removed since it is
already documented under options and users should probably set the
current-window-scale property instead in most cases.
Previously we assumed the key-name string occupies strlen(name) cells,
now we count codepoints instead.
This improves alignment of non-english key names. Still not perfect
because we don't know if the key name is single or double width, but
wcwidth not available to scripts, notoriously unreliable (depends on
locale, correct and updated tables, etc), and also not always
available (Windows).
Still, better than nothing, and we err by at most one cell - vs up to
three before this commit (4 bytes keyname codepoint).
In the future we could do the alignment using libass tags, however,
this both complicates the ass-output generation, and also not available
when we output for the terminal, so for now only count codepoints.
Also, if the key name was in a right-to-left language, then previously
the name/command were swapped visually. Now we inject a left-to-right
marker before the name to ensure direction. This works also when
harfbuzz is disabled for libass (--sub-ass-shaper=simple).
Let audio-display determine whether embedded images or external cover
art tracks should be selected when both are present.
Attached pictures are given priority by default as requested in #8539.
Also updates references to attached pictures in the log and manpage to
refer to cover art as well.
Closes#8539.
When changing image-display-duration at runtime, make the new value take
effect immediately, rather than from the next playlist-position change.
This allows toggling the slideshow mode while viewing images (without
hacks like executing playlist-play-index current afterwards).
All the conditions are just to be safe since even if you set time_frame
while playing a video, it's immediately overwritten by the next value.
mpv has two methods to display output from text input:
- show-text (scripting: mp.osd_message) has ass disabled by default
(escaped), and the property osd-ass-cc can control escaping.
- osd-overlay (scripting: mp.set_osd_ass or mp.create_osd_overlay)
has ass enabled (unescaped), and osd-ass-cc is NOT supported.
By default, stats.lua uses mp.osd_message which does support escaping.
That's persistent_overlay=no.
When using persistent_overlay=yes then mp.set_osd_ass is used.
Due to this, the no_ASS(..) function - which is supposed to escape
ass, simply returned its input unmodified when persistent_overlay
is enabled.
This is not a new issue, and the filters on page 1 use no_ASS() to no
avail in persistent mode, however, this content (filter name and value
strings) rarely actually needs escaping, and users didn't notice.
However, the new page 4 (keys) does break visibly when no_ASS doesn't
work, because it tries to escape arbitrary key-names and command
strings, and at the very least the key '{' is bound by default, which
is displayed incorrectly if escaping doesn't work.
Fix this by rolling our own escaping when using mp.set_osd_ass,
similar to how the mpv code does it for mp.osd_message (substrings
replacements).
However, this means that the set_ASS(..) function can no longer
behave correctly because escaping requires going through the whole
content string rather than only inserting a marker.
Luckily, other than at no_ASS, set_ASS was only used at one place
(text_style), which is only called from two places:
- generate_graph() only needs to restore styles - not to enable ass.
- add_header() is only used at the begining of page output, and
uses set_ASS to enable ass initially when using mp.osd_message.
So remove the set_ASS function, and instead enable ass directly at
print_page using osd-ass-cc when mp.osd_message is used.
Fixes#9022
As it turns out, js_try can throw if it runs out of try-stack
(without/before entering either the try part or the catch part).
If it happens, then C code which does allocation -> try will leak.
In mpv there were two places which do alloc and then try, one of
them as part of the autofree system. On both cases the leak is the
smallest possible (zero allocation) - talloc_new(NULL);
It's very unlikely to trigger - an autofree mpv API should be called
when the try-stack is exactly full, and our next try will throw
(and guaranteed to get caught at an outer level, but with a leak).
Fix that by doing the allocation inside the try block, so that if
try throws before it's entered then nothing got allocated/leaked.
Mujs internal code also has/had similar leaks, which are getting
fixed around this time (July 2021, post mujs 1.1.3).
[1] exhaust the try-stack or call-stack, whichever comes first:
function kaboom() { try { kaboom() } catch(e) {} }
Previously, if a script bound the same key more than once to different
functions (without removing the older bindings first), then pressing
the key triggered any of the bound functions arbitrarily[1].
Now the newest binding for the same key is always the active one.
If the newest binding is then removed - the second-newest will become
active, etc. (same mechanism as before, except that the active key
was not always the newest).
[1] The order was implementation-defined, however `for (name in obj)'
happens to iterate. With mujs that's currently alhabetic order,
and name is from mp.add_[forced_]key_binding(key, name...)
or generated internally if name is not provided. So a binding with
higher alphabetic `name' value had priority over lower name value.
This allows configuring which options are saved by quit-watch-later.
Fixes#4126, #4641 and #5567.
Toggling a video or audio filter twice would treat the option as changed
because the backup value is NULL, and the current value of vf/af is a
list with one empty item, so obj_settings_list_equal had to be changed.
Unlike the page switching/scrolling keys which are bound at runtime
and therefore we need to know which (configured) keys to bind, the
main keys (i/I by default) are static and can be bound via input.conf.
And indeed, the builtin bindings at etc/input.conf have them already.
Page 4 bindings listing wants to exclude the interactive keys of the
stats script itself - so that they don't hide the normal keys which
are bound when stats is not interactive.
It did so by testing that the bound command includes stats/__key
which is how it usually looks when a script binds keys.
However, if a script uses a name for the binding - like stats.lua does
for the interative keys (because it later removes them by name when
interactive mode ends), then the command has stats/name rather than
stats/__key...
To fix this, we change the names of the forced interactive bindings
to start with __forced_, and that's now also what the page-4 listing
excludes.
This reverts commit 0f1654811bda0dfdd337734ec33c59b67522234a.
It was an incorrect fix, because the key names do get used - to remove
the forced bindings once stats exits the interactive mode.
And without names - the interactive keys remained active even after
stats exited interactive mode.
The page 4 keybinding list tries to skip the interactive bindings of
stats itself (because they would hide the normal bindings of these
keys when stats is not visible), and to do that it excludes commands
containing "script-binding stats/__key" - which is how script-added
bindings usually look like.
However, keys which are added with a "name" bind stats/name rather
than stats/__key... - and that's what stats.lua did till now with its
interactive force-bindings.
Now the interactive forced bindings are added without a name, and so
they do end up using the automatic stats/__key... and get excluded.
While --input-test is useful, and so is page 4 of stats, until now
there was no way to simply print the list in a help-like fashion.
This commit adds such printout, invoked by the script opt
stats-bindlist=yes, which uses the existing page 4 code. This prints
the list on startup and quits immediately - like any help page.
It's awkward to invoke compared to other help pages, and it does
require the stats page to be enabled (it is by default), however
it is a script-generated output, and currently there's no other
method to print a help page generated by a script.
The printout itself is performed using lua's io.write. While reliable,
it's not the standard way for mpv to print to the terminal.
Other possible printout methods are mp.msg.info - which also prints
"[stats]" prefix on each line (ugly), or forcing term-osd and setting
an osd-message which mpv will then print at the terminal - however
that's printed to stderr, and could also be subject to timing concerns
since we quit right afterwards.
In the future we can consider changing/integrating the invocation so
that mpv itself could print a help page generated by a script, thus
solving both the awkward invocation and printout-method issues.
This is a scrollable page which also works nicely with the terminal
OSD. Typically there are more than 100 bound keys.
It groups the binding using fuzzy property/command/script name after
simple analysis of the command string, and then further sorts the
binding in each group according to the "complexity" of the key itself
(plain keys -> keys with modifiers, alphabetically, etc).
The alignment/grouping style is heavily inspired by @medhefgo's #8924
but otherwise it's an independent implementation.
Typically the current page is rebuilt and rendered once per second,
howeve, scrolling can invoke the rebuild function very frequently,
even at a rate which is too fast for the rebuild function to keep
up. This can result in high CPU usage and input lag.
This commit adds an argument to the page-rebuild function, letting it
know whether or not it's called following a scroll keypress, thus
allowing it to cache intermediate data so that it doesn't have to
re-calculate the whole page from scratch.
This additional argument is unused currently, but it could be useful
for the internal performance page - which can be relatively heavy.
When playing a new file, if paused_for_cache was true before being reset
the AO would never be unpaused because that state was thrown away, leaving it stuck.
Fix this by updating the pause state before resetting that variable. Note that this
does not make the second update_internal_pause_state() call redundant.
This fixes the same bug fb5d976cb0 was supposed to.
reinit_audio_filters_and_output function will free mpctx->ao_chain
when there is a failure during audio initialization. So modify it
to return -1 in case of init failure. The return value is checked
to avoid use after free. Reported by Address Sanitizer when manually
specifying --ao which triggers "Failed to initialize audio driver" error.
Modifies the sub-seek and sub-step commands with a second <flags>
argument to specify whether to seek/step on the primary or secondary
subtitles. The flag is used to index into the current_track array in
cmd_sub_step_seek.
Adds secondary-sub-start and secondary-sub-end properties by setting
the current_track index in the m_property's priv variable which later
gets accessed in get_times. Also adds a test of the secondary subtitle
time properties in tests/subtimes.js bound to 'T'.
Though, only when the output format is matroska, to avoid muxing errors.
This is quite useful when the input has ASS subtitles, as they tend to
rely on embedded fonts.
osc-visibility can already be changed at runtime via script-message
or other means, but until now there was no way to tell what the
current state is.
Now shared-script-properties/osc-visibility reflects this state.
It's output-only by the osc - changing it does not affect the osc.
Useful if a script wants to change osc-visibility temporarily, and
later restore to its original state.
There's no way to coordinate if more than one script wants to change
it, but that would be a hard problem to solve anyway, even if the
osc itself tried to coordinate such requests from different sources.
Commits 4d1ffec and 6e481d0 renamed sub-ass-style-override to
sub-ass-override. But in commit bd603c2, when renaming it in
quit-watch-later's backup_properties, which determines which properties
are saved by quit-watch-later/write-watch-later-config, it was
incorrectly renamed to sub-style-override instead, and thus never got
saved even if modified at runtime. Instead mpv attempted to save the
non-existing property "sub-style-override", but since no error is raised
when saving non-existing properties with quit-watch-later, no one
noticed it. This commit renames the saved property to the correct new
name "sub-ass-override" so that it does get saved.
This fixes two issues, both of which resulted from the timers-wait
period not being re-calculated after idle-observers were executed:
- If timers were added from an idle observer then they could fire long
after they were due (only when/if the next mpv event arrives).
- Idle observers don't execute in zero time, and the wait period for
the next timer was implicitly extended by the idle observers
execution time (because it was calculated before the idle observers).
This commit ensures that if idle-observers were executed, then the
timers wait period is re-calculated, which solves both issues.
Previously, process_timers() kept going as long as there were due
timers, which could be for extended periods of time or even forever
if there were slow timer callbacks with either periodic timers or if
timers were added repeatedly.
This prevented dequeuing mpv events, and subsequently, among others,
prevented mpv from quitting until process_timers() completed.
For instance, this caused process_timers() to never return:
function render() <longer than 1/60 s on a slow system> end
mp.add_periodic_timer(1/60, render)
Similarly, it never returned if a timer callback always added a new
one-shot which was already due by the time the callback completed.
This commit ensures that process_timers() only executes callbacks which
were due when it started, so that timers which are added (or repeated)
during process_timers() will wait for the next iteration - after mpv
events are dequeued.
This has no performance impact under normal conditions (when callbacks
complete before the next timer is due).
Additionally, previously idle-observers were executed unconditionally
after the timers because indeed there was nothing due when (if...)
process_timers() completed. However, now process_timers() can return
even if there are due timers, so skip idle-observers on such case.
This fixes a long-standing apparent issue where mpv would display the last
frame with no subtitles at EOF. This is caused by sub rendering switching from
video timestamps to audio timestamps when the video ends, and audio streams
often running past the timestamp of the last video frame. However, authoring
tools (most notably Aegisub) don't tend to provide easy ways to add meaningful
subtitles after the end of the video, so this is rarely actually useful.
This makes cover-art-auto behave more like sub-auto and audio-file-auto:
- load cover art with a language, e.g. if playing foo.mp3, foo.en.jpg
will be loaded with lang=en
- load cover art containing the media filename with fuzzy and all, e.g.
'foo (large).jpg'
- make all/2 load all images in the directory, and make fuzzy/1 the
default
These are all uncommon use cases, but synchronizing the behavior of the
external file options simplifies the code.
The idle-observers block has at least 3 function calls, and it was
entered every time the script went into idle, however, we can save these
calls by checking first that there are indeed such observers.
Remove the check that the external filename is not the same as the
currently playing one, which prevents mpv from loading images again as
external cover art, but this isn't necessary because cover art is only
added when playing standalone audio. I had only added this check because
I would otherwise get a segfault only when compiling with gcc 10.2 with
optimize and changing position within a playlist of multiple images (and
this couldn't even be reproduced by Dudemanguy on the same gcc version),
but this was caused by the uninitialized lang variable which is now
fixed.
Commit 029ff10 added a goto statement which skipped initializing the
`lang' variable. This could crash depending on compiler optimizations
and other factors: if the lang bstr pointer happened to end up NULL
(which is apparently the case with most compilers) then it's validly
empty, but if it pointed to a random and incorrect memory address then
it crashed.
The crash was observed when mpv was compiled using gcc 10.2 with
optimizations enabled, and affected some third party Windows builds.
This commit ensures the goto doesn't skip the initialization.
Thanks to votemp for figuring this out.
Fixes#8922.
Previously tick() was ensured unconditionally only after mouse-move,
but there are other mouse-events which need re-rendering (tick), like
mouse-down (icons may get grayed-out) or mouse-up (icons may change).
For instance: mpv --pause --myclip.mkv
then move the mouse over the volume/mute OSC button, then - without
moving the mouse - press and release the left mouse button.
The osc was not re-rendered because it's paused and the mouse didn't
move, so the volume icon didn't get grayed-out when held down, and the
icon doesn't change on mouse-up (to reflect the new mute state).
Now both these changes are rendered correctly.
This is not a new issue, however, until the last commit - 96b246d
init probably didn't happen much (or at all) between mouse-down and
mouse-up, but after this commit, if there are chapters in a live-stream
then osc_init() is used to re-render the markers at the adjusted
position - which breaks the OSC buttons functionality if init happened
between mouse-down and mouse-up.
Commit 6abb7e3 updates the markers when the chapters change, but it
doesn't update their relative position at the bar when the duration
changes.
This means that adding chapters to a live stream would result in
corresponding chapter markers which were static while the duration
changed and thus their positions became incorrect over time until the
OSC was reinitialized.
This is fixed by observing the duration property if chapters are present
and reinitializing the OSC when the duration changes.
The live_markers user option, which determines whether the duration
property is observed when there are chapters, has been added in order to
allow disabling this behaviour as calling request_init() frequently
might have some impact on low-end systems.
The impact of request_init() on render() was measured to increase from
1-1.5 ms to 2-3 ms on a 2010 MacBook Air, while the impact was neglible
on a 2016 Surface Book (increasing only to an average of 1.4 ms from
1.3 ms for n=1500 render cycles).
The live_markers option is enabled by default.
This moves the JSON parsing above the main youtube-dl error-handling
block and integrates parsing errors into that block. Now, if a parsing
error occurs, youtube-dl's stderr will be logged as it is with other
errors. This also catches errors that cause youtube-dl to output
"null", which would previously be mishandled as a parsing error and
crash ytdl_hook when it attempted to concatenate the error string from
parse_json.
When the OSC initializes, it checks whether the current video has
chapters, and if it does not, it disables its chapter functionality
(chapter buttons are grayed out and unusable, chapter indicators don't
show on the seek bar). If another script changed the chapter list
after the video has loaded, those changes would be ignored by the OSC
until some other event causes it to re-initialize, because it did not
observe the chapter list property. This is fixed by adding
observation of chapter-list alongside the other properties that
trigger re-initialization.
Shows uploader, channel, description fields. This works only if the
media media is constructed as EDL (for youtube it usually does this),
and if the all_formats option is not set to true (does anyone even use
it?). The former usually happens because youtube serves audio and video
separately, though it will not for live HLS/DASH. The latter uses
delayed media opening, which breaks the global_tags mechanism (see
previous commit).
Switching to a new file while keeping the AO didn't update the volume.
While there's an explicit audio_update_volume() call in
reinit_audio_chain_src(), it doesn't work, because at that point
ao_chain->ao is still NULL, and it does nothing. That's pretty weird and
might cause other problems (what happens if you try to mute while the AO
is "floating"?). Regarding gapless, trying to use the AO gain for
replaygain is also gross nonsense, because the new replaygain computed
gain would affect audio from the previous file. It looks like replaygain
should be in an af_volume filter maybe. On the other hand, I enjoy
setting ridiculous replaygain-preamp values and compensating with a low
volume setting, which would not work well if both gains were applied to
the audio independently.
For now, just add the missing call. This is orthogonal to fixing
replaygain "properly".
This reverts commit 3239e41277.
I'm fairly sure this is wrong, and my next commit should fix it
properly. I'm not really sure, though. Normally, the AO is set again
by reinit_audio_filters_and_output() after the new audio chain has
decoded a frame and knows the new format. The reason replaygain (and
apparently the thing the reverted commit tried to fix) didn't work is
because they work asynchronously to the audio played by the AO (i.e.
buggy and hard to fix).
For some reason, this never existed before. Add VOCTRL_GET_DISPLAY_RES
and use it to obtain the current display's resolution from each
vo/windowing backend if applicable. Users can then access the current
display resolution as display-width and display-height as per the client
api. Note that macOS/cocoa was not attempted in this commit since the
author has no clue how to write swift.
We now have at least 3 scripting APIs which are trivial wrappers
around properties: mp.get_mouse_pos, utils.getcwd, utils.getpid.
After some discussion on IRC it was decided that it's easier for us to
maintain them as trivial wrappers than to deprecate them and inflict
pain on users and script authors, so currently no plan to deprecate.
Some subproperties in osd-dimensions were returned as doubles despite
actually being integers. Additionally, correct a highly misleading line
in the osd-width/osd-height documentation.
This fixes a bug where using boxvideo with showfullscreen=no or
showwindowed=no resulted in the margins not resetting when the OSC
wasn't visible.
For example, using:
script-opts=osc-visibility=always,osc-boxvideo=yes,osc-showfullscreen=no
and then going fullscreen would make the OSC disappear but the video
margins would remain. This is because boxvideo was missing a dependence
on the showfullscreen and showwindowed user options.
This is fixed by adding the corresponding conditions to update_margins()
and setting state.marginsREQ on fullscreen changes. update_margins() is
called on tick() if there's a margins update pending, which guarantees
the boxvideo margins are reset appropriately.
Clearing state.osd.data with an empty string at render_wipe() fixes an
issue where changing the OSC visibility from "never" directly to
"always" didn't immediately update the display when the player was
paused. This could be verified by starting the player with
`--script-opts=osc-visibility=always --pause` and then running
`script-message osc-visibility never` followed by
`script-message osc-visibility always`.
Removing the overlay without changing the contents meant the overlay
wouldn't update and display when enabled again until the fields changed
in some way (e.g. seeking, mousing over the OSC area, etc.). Clearing
state.osd.data before removal of the OSC makes sure set_osd doesn't
return on re-enable and instead displays the OSC immediately as the data
is now different.
render_wipe() is now also used when the OSC needs to be cleared at
tick() as using set_osd to clear it with an empty string did not call
state.osd:remove() which can allow cleanups related to bitmap memory
allocations etc.
Seems to be a slight corner case with the audio API rewrite. When
switching from one file to another one, the volume of the ao would never
be set because the audio chain's ao wasn't set. This caused a bug with
the reset-set-on-file option. The volume/property would be correctly set
internally, but the gain was not actually set when the file switched.
Fixes#8287.
There was a simple oversight that meant audio outputs were
uninitialized during an encoding, which is not allowed, the encoding
would stop with numerous errors.
I added a single line to prevent the call of uninit_audio_out in
reinit_audio_chain if the encoder was active and this appears to have
fixed the problem without breaking anything else.
Fixes#8568
Now loading cover art through mp_add_external_file requires an
additional argument to be set to true. This way not all video-add
commands end up being marked as cover art when they move through
mp_add_external_file, as originally changed in 55d7f9ded1 .
Additionally, this lets us clean up some logic that would otherwise be
duplicated between open_external_files and autoload_external_files, if
the logic had been kept split from mp_add_external_file.
Fixes#8358
Some tracks happen to lack bitrate information (ie. no tbr value).
In that case, just ignore the track while computing the max bitrate.
For an example, this is a stream in which all audio tracks
have no bitrate: https://www.raiplay.it/dirette/rai1
Previously the mouse command never ended up in enter/leave keypresses
for the default section even when logically required, because input.c
does not know the area of the default section and relies on something
feeding it ENTER/LEAVE presses - which the VO typically does but the
mouse command didn't.
Now the mouse command feeds it ENTER/LEAVE if required.
It's possible to handle it differently and more consistently by:
1. reverting this commit.
2. Updating the default section area whenever the osd dimensions change.
3. Always ignore MOUSE_ENTER keys because the position is not known yet
(but MOSE_MOVE typically follows right away).
4. On mouse move: first generate ENTER/LEAVE if required.
That would guarantee consistency between mouse position and enter/leave
events but could be more sensitive to manage (the default section has
"infinite" area which is used to capture any event outside of specific
section areas), while this commit keeps consistency same as before and
depending on correct external feeding - which we now do better, even if
still not optimally (like before, it's still technically possible that
a script recieves MOUSE_ENTER and then reads the position before it got
updated after the ENTER).
Add a third field: "hover", which is updated from input.c after input
keys MP_KEY_MOUSE_LEAVE and MP_KEY_MOUSE_ENTER - which are typically
sent by the VO.
It's part of mouse-pos and not a new property because it's highly tied
to mouse-pos - it makes x/y invalid while the cursor doesn't hover the
window.
Unike mouse-move, no dummy command was generated, so we add dummy
command in order for observer notification to work even while nothing
is bound.
Like mouse-pos, clients could not detect whether the mouse pointer
hovers the window because the OSC force-binds the MOUSE_LEAVE key, and
now they can using the hover field.
The lua mp.get_mouse_pos() wrapper still returns only x, y because
that's what osc.lua needs. Other clients can simply read the property.
mp.get_mouse_pos() is undocumented and is no longer required - the
property can be used officially by any client now, however, osc.lua
uses it, and also some user scripts learnt to rely on it, so we keep
it - as a trivial wrapper around the new mouse-pos property.
This is a read-only MPV_NODE value with integer fields: x, y.
The values are unmodified from mp_input_get_mouse_pos(...).
Observer notification of this property is tied to the INPUT_PROCESSED
event, which fires after mouse move even if no command is bound
(dummy commands are generated if nothing is bound to ensure that
mp_input_get_mouse_pos returns the latest values - see ac927e39 ).
This allows clients such as JSON IPC to observe mouse position even
while the OSC is enabled - the OSC force-binds mouse move for most
of the window area, making it impossible for other clients to bind
mouse move without breaking the OSC.
This can be viewed at page 4 of the internal stats display (i or I).
CPU time report is the same as at lua.c, but untested - doesn't seem
to work on windows - also not for lua.
TL;DR: Set env MPV_LEAK_REPORT=1 to enable js memory reporting stats.
This also almost doubles the memory usage by js scripts.
For memory reporting, we don't have enough info by default, because
even when using a custom allocator, mujs doesn't report the old size
(on free or realloc) because it doesn't track this value, and as
a result we can't track the overall size.
Our option are either to track the size of each allocation on our own,
or use talloc which tracks this value.
However, using talloc for mujs allocations adds a considerable
overhead, and almost doubles(!) the overall memory used, because each
individual allocation includes a considerable talloc header, and mujs
does many small allocations.
So our solution is that by default we behave like previously - not
using a custom allocator with mujs, and stats does not display memory
usage for js scripts.
However, if the env var MPV_LEAK_REPORT is set to 1, then we use
a custom allocator with talloc and track/report memory usage.
We can't switch allocator at runtime, so an mpv instance either tracks
or doesn't track js scripts memory usage, according to the env var.
(we could use a property and apply it whenever a new script starts,
so that it could change for newly launched scripts, but we don't).
This allows keybindings such as:
a script-message-to console type "seek :0 absolute" 6
% script-message-to console type "seek absolute-percent" 6
The cursor position 0 isn't allowed because it has the weird effect of
filling the console with the text twice, leaving the cursor in the
middle.
Negative positions would put the cursor n characters before the end, and
positions greater than the text's length at the end. They seem to work
at first, but the console breaks when you move the cursor, so they
aren't allowed.
It seems that float values don't cause issues, but I'm using the
argument's floor anyway to be safe. Using >= 1 instead of > 0 ignores
values like 0.5.
This introduces the delete-watch-later-config command, to complement
write-watch-later-config. This is an alternative to #8141.
The general problem that this change is attempting to help solve has
been described in #336, #3169 and #6574. Though persistent playback
position of a single file is generally a solved problem, this is not
the case for playlists, as described in #8138.
The motivation is facilitating intermittent playback of very large
playlists, consisting of hundreds of entries each many hours
long. Though the current "watch later" mechanism works well - provided
that the files each occur only once in that playlist, and are played
only via that playlist - the biggest issue is that the position is
lost completely should mpv exit uncleanly (e.g. due to a power
failure). Existing workarounds (in the form of Lua scripts which call
write-watch-later-config periodically) fail in the playlist case, due
to the mechanism used by mpv to determine where within a playlist to
resume playback from.
The missing puzzle piece needed to allow scripts to implement a
complete solution to this problem is simply a way to clean up the
watch-later configuration that the script asked mpv to write using
write-watch-later-config. With that in place, scripts can then
register an end-file event listener, check the stop playback reason,
and in the "eof" and "stop" case, invoke delete-watch-later-config to
delete any saved positions written by write-watch-later-config. The
script can then proceed to immediately write a new one when the next
file is loaded, which altogether allows mpv to resume from the correct
playlist and file position upon next startup.
Because events are delivered and executed asynchronously,
delete-watch-later-config takes an optional filename argument, to
allow scripts to clear watch-later configuration for files after mpv
had already moved on from playing them and proceeded to another file.
A Lua script which makes use of this change can be found here:

(A modification of the one written by @Hakkin, in that this one takes
advantage of the new command, and also saves the state immediately
when a new file is loaded.)
Picks up files like "cover.jpg". It's made part of normal external file
loading, so I'm adding 3 new options that are direct equivalents for the
options that control loading of external subtitle and audio files. Even
though I bet nobody wants them and they just increase confusion... I
guess the world is actually hell, so this outcome should be fine.
It prefers non-specific external files like "cover.jpg" over embedded
cover art. Not sure if that's wanted or unwanted.
There's some pain over explicitly marking such files as external
pictures. This is basically an optimization: in most cases, a heuristic
would treat an image file loaded with --external-file the same (it's a
heuristic because ffmpeg can't tell us whether something is an image or
a video). However, even with this heuristic, it would decode the cover
art picture again on each seek, which would essentially slow down
seeking in audio files. This bothered me greatly, which is why I'm
adding these additional options at all, and bothered with the previous
commit.
Fixes: #3056
Essentially, this lets video.c decide whether to consider a video track
cover art, instead of having the decoder wrapper use the lower level
sh_stream flag.
Some pain because of the dumb threading shit. Moving the code further
down to make some of it part of the lock should not change behavior,
although it could (framedrop nonsense).
This commit should not change actual behavior, and is only preparation
for the following commit.
Pause can be changed during a file change, such as with for example
--reset-on-next-file=pause, or in hooks, or by being quick, and in this
case the AO's pause state was not updated correctly. mpctx->ao_chain is
only set if playback is fully initialized, while the AO itself in
mpctx->ao can be reused across files.
Fix this by always running set_pause_state() if the pause option is
changed. Could cause new bugs since running this used to be explicitly
avoided outside of the loaded state. The handling of time_frame is
potentially worrisome.
Regression due to recent audio refactor; before that, the AO didn't have
a separate/persistent pause state.
Fixes: #8079
Since b74c09efbf, audio-only files let you seek to arbitrary points
beyond the end of the file (but still displayed the time clamped to the
nominal file duration). This was confusing and just not wanted. The
reason is probably that the commit removed setting the audio PTS for
data before the seek target, so if you seek past the end of the file,
the audio PTS is never set. This in turn means the logic to determine
the current playback time has no PTS at all, and thus falls back to the
seek PTS.
This happened in the past for other reasons (like efe43d768f). I have
enough of this, so I'm just changing the code to clamp the seek
timestamp to a "known" range. Do this when seeking ends, because in the
fallback case, the playback time shouldn't be stuck at e.g. "end +
seek_argument". Also do it when initiating a new seek (mp_seek), because
if the previous seek hasn't finished yet, it shouldn't add them up and
allow it to go "out of range" either. The latter is especially relevant
for hr-seeks.
Doing this clamping is problematic because the duration is a possibly
invalid value from the demuxer, or just missing. Especially with
timestamp resets, fun sometimes happens, and in these situations it
might be better not to clamp.
One could argue you should just use the last audio timestamp returned by
the decoder or demuxer (even if that directly conflicts with --end), but
that sounds even more hairy.
In summary: what a dumb waste of time, what the fuck.
Add a property that returns whether the window is focused, currently
only for X11 and Wayland.
My use cause for this is having an equivalent of pause-when-minimize.lua
for tiling window managers: make mpv play only while it's in the current
workspace or is focused (I'm fine with either one but prefer focus).
On X I do this by observing display-names, which is empty when the
rectangles of the display and mpv don't intersect, but on Wayland its
value doesn't change when mpv leaves the current workspace (and the same
check doesn't work since the geometries still intersect).
This could later be made writable as requested in #6252.
Note that on Wayland se shouldn't consider an unactivated window with
keyboard input focused.
The wlroots compositors I tested set activated after changing the
keyboard focus, so if you set wl->focused only in
keyboard_handle_enter() and keyboard_handle_leave() to avoid adding the
"has_keyboard_input" member, focused isn't set to true when first
opening mpv until you focus another window and focus mpv again.
Conversely, if that order can't be assumed for all compositors, we
should toggle wl->focused when necessary in keyboard_handle_enter() and
keyboard_handle_leave() as well as in handle_toplevel_config().
The render API replaced the opengl_cb API over 2 years ago. Since then,
the opengl_cb API was emulated on top of the render API. While it would
probably be reasonable to emulate these APIs until they're removed in an
eventual libmpv 2.0 bump, I have some non-technical reasons to disable
the API now.
The API stubs remain; they're needed for formal ABI compatibility.
If you encode to e.g. an audio-only format, then video is disabled
automatically. This also takes care of the very cryptic error message.
It says "[vo/lavc] codec for video not found". Sort of true, but
obscures the real problem if it's e.g. an audio-only format.
I don't see the point of this. Not doing it may defer an error to later.
That's OK? For now, it seems better to reduce the encoding internal API.
If someone can demonstrate that this is needed, I might reimplement it
in a different way.
Since this is a messy and fragile mechanism, I want it logged (even if
it's somewhat in conflict with the verbose logging policy). On the other
hand, it's unconditionally logged on every playloop iteration. So add
some nonsense to log it only on progress.
Just for the redundant message. The function which is called here,
ao_drain(), does not care in which state it is called, and already
handled this gracefully.
This replaces the two buffers (ao_chain.ao_buffer in the core, and
buffer_state.buffers in the AO) with a single queue. Instead of having a
byte based buffer, the queue is simply a list of audio frames, as output
by the decoder. This should make dataflow simpler and reduce copying.
It also attempts to simplify fill_audio_out_buffers(), the function I
always hated most, because it's full of subtle and buggy logic.
Unfortunately, I got assaulted by corner cases, dumb features (attempt
at seamless looping, really?), and other crap, so it got pretty
complicated again. fill_audio_out_buffers() is still full of subtle and
buggy logic. Maybe it got worse. On the other hand, maybe there really
is some progress. Who knows.
Originally, the data flow parts was meant to be in f_output_chain, but
due to tricky interactions with the playloop code, it's now in the dummy
filter in audio.c.
At least this improves the way the audio PTS is passed to the encoder in
encoding mode. Now it attempts to pass frames directly, along with the
pts, which should minimize timestamp problems. But to be honest, encoder
mode is one big kludge that shouldn't exist in this way.
This commit should be considered pre-alpha code. There are lots of bugs
still hiding.
This can happen if a file contains headers only, or if decoding of all
data failed, and such. Interestingly, it also happened when doing "mpv
--loop emptyfile.png", because demux_mf still detects file formats by
file extension.
In this situation, the player burned a lot of CPU by restarting playback
after doing nothing. Although such "degenerate" behavior can't be
avoided in all situations (what if you loop a file with 1 audio
sample?), detecting this seems to make sense.
For now, this actually decrements the loop count by 1, and then errors
out with a warning. Works for --loop and --ab-loop, while
--loop-playlist already avoids this situation with an existing
mechanism.
This allows users to control whether full dialogue subtitles are displayed
with an audio track already in their preferred subtitle language.
Additionally, this improves handling for the forced flag, automatically
selecting between forced and unforced subtitle streams based on the user's
settings and the selected audio.
lua/js utils.get_env_list() uses `environ' which was ANSI, thus
it broke any unicode names/values.
mpv already has an internal utf8_environ for win32, but it's used
only at the getenv(..) wrapper and not exposed in itself, and also it
has lazy initialization - on first getenv() call.
Now `environ' maps to a function which ensures initialization while
keeping it an l-value (like posix expects).
The cost of this fuglyness is that files should include osdep/io.h
(which now declares environ as extern) rather than declaring it
themselves, or else the build will break on mingw.
This was a vague idea how to handle passing byte arrays from Lua to the
mpv command interface in a somewhat reasonable way. The idea was
cancelled, but leave the Lua part of it, since it might get useful
later, and prevents passing (and silently cutting off) such byte
strings.
Barely tested, let's say not tested at all.
Make it possible to feed a string to stdin of a subprocess. Out of
laziness, it can't be an arbitrary byte string. (Would require adding an
option type that takes in a Lua byte string.)
Do not set stdin of a subprocess to fd 0 (i.e. mpv's stdin) anymore,
because it makes things more consistent. Enabling stdin didn't make too
much sense in the first place, so this behavior change seems
justifiable.
win32 support missing.
Fixes: #8003
The subtitle list is returned in randomized order, because a table (i.e.
JSON object) is used. To make the order stable across repeated
invocations, sort it by language.
Options like --sub-ass-force-style and others could not be changed at
runtime (the changes didn't take any effect). Fix this by using the
brutal approach, and completely reinit the subtitle state when this
happens. Maybe a bit clunky, but for now I'd rather not put more effort
into this.
Fixes: #7689
Requested. Should be good for simple use cases. "sub2" is technically
inconsistent (since the option is called --secondary-sid), but fuck the
consistent name.
Uses the mechanism introduced in the previous commit. The hope was to
make auto-profiles easier to use, and to get rid of the need for
manually created inverse profiles. Not sure if the end result is useful.
Make it possible to restore from profiles by backing up the option
values before profile application. This is sort of like unapplying a
profile. Since there might be multiple ways to do this, a profile needs
to explicitly provide the "profile-restore" option, which specifies how
exactly this should be done.
This is a big mess. There is not natural way to do this. Profile
application is "destructive" and simply changes the values of the
options. Maybe one could argue that the option system should have
hierarchical "overlays" of profiles instead, where unset options will
use the value of the lower profiles. Options set interactively by the
user would be the top profile. Default values would be in the lowest
profile. You could unapply a profile by simply removing it from this
overlay stack.
But uh, let's not, so here's something stupid. It reuses some code used
for file local options to reduce code size. At least the overlay idea
would still be possible in theory, and could be added as another
profile-restore mode.
This is used by the following commit.
The callback now gets an object argument with defer/cont functions.
Like the lua code, the behavior is that each hook event allows at
most one continue, but nothing enforces the order of continuations
if more hook events arrive before prior ones were continued - which
is possible now with the defer option, but wasn't possible before
(continuation was synchronous from the hook event handler).
The property observation mechanism is fairly asynchronous to the player
core, and Lua scripts also are (they run in a separate thread). This may
sometimes lead to profiles being applied when it's too load.
For example, you may want to change network options depending on the
input URL - but most of these options would have to be set before the
HTTP access is made. But it could happen that the profile, and thus the
option, was applied at an slightly but arbitrary later time.
This is generally not fixable. But for the most important use-cases,
such as applying changes before media opening or playback
initialization, we can use some of the defined hooks.
Hooks make it synchronous again, by allowing API users (such as scripts)
to block the core because it continues with loading.
For this we simply don't continue a given hook, until we receive an idle
event, and have applied all changes. The idle event is in general used
to wait for property change notifications to settle down. Some of this
relies on the subtle ways guarantees are (maybe) given. See commit
ba70b150fb for the messy details. I'm not quite sure whether it
actually works, because I can't be bothered to read and understand my
bullshit from half a year ago. Should provide at least some improvement,
though.
This can now opt to not continue a hook after the hook callback returns.
This makes it easier for scripts, and may make it unnecessary to run
reentrant event loops etc. for scripts that want to wait before
continuing while still running the event loop.
This is taken from a somewhat older proof-of-concept script. The basic
idea, and most of the implementation, is still the same. The way the
profiles are actually defined changed.
I still feel bad about this being a Lua script, and running user
expressions as Lua code in a vaguely defined environment, but I guess as
far as balance of effort/maintenance/results goes, this is fine.
It's a bit bloated (the Lua scripting state is at least 150KB or so in
total), so in order to enable this by default, I decided it should
unload itself by default if no auto-profiles are used. (And currently,
it does not actually rescan the profile list if a new config file is
loaded some time later, so the script would do nothing anyway if no auto
profiles were defined.)
This still requires defining inverse profiles for "unapplying" a
profile. Also this is still somewhat racy. Both will probably be
alleviated to some degree in the future.
Add env and detach arguments. This means the command.c code must use the
"new" mp_subprocess2(). So also take this as an opportunity to clean up.
win32 support gets broken by it, because it never made the switch to the
newer function.
The new detach parameter makes the "run" command fully redundant, but I
guess we'll keep it for simplicity. But change its implementation to use
mp_subprocess2() (couldn't do this earlier, because win32).
Privately, I'm going to use the "env" argument to add a key binding that
starts a shell with a FILE environment variable set to the currently
playing file, so this is very useful to me.
Note: breaks windows, so for example youtube-dl on windows will not work
anymore. mp_subprocess2() has to be implemented. The old functions are
gone, and subprocess-win.c is not built anymore. It will probably work
on Cygwin.
Commit fcf0b80dc9 fixed this the first time. Commit 85576f31a9
"accidentally" removed this code again. The commit message justifying
the removal is correct, except it doesn't take other side-effects of the
state machine into account. I obviously didn't remember what exactly
this was about. So add a comment explaining it this time.
Just apply it again; the thing the latter commit fixed still works.
Fixes: #7819
This affects "pull" AOs only: ao_alsa, ao_pulse, ao_openal, ao_pcm,
ao_lavc. There are changes to the other AOs too, but that's only about
renaming ao_driver.resume to ao_driver.start.
ao_openal is broken because I didn't manage to fix it, so it exits with
an error message. If you want it, why don't _you_ put effort into it? I
see no reason to waste my own precious lifetime over this (I realize the
irony).
ao_alsa loses the poll() mechanism, but it was mostly broken and didn't
really do what it was supposed to. There doesn't seem to be anything in
the ALSA API to watch the playback status without polling (unless you
want to use raw UNIX signals).
No idea if ao_pulse is correct, or whether it's subtly broken now. There
is no documentation, so I can't tell what is correct, without reverse
engineering the whole project. I recommend using ALSA.
This was supposed to be just a simple fix, but somehow it expanded scope
like a train wreck. Very high chance of regressions, but probably only
for the AOs listed above. The rest you can figure out from reading the
diff.
This simply printf()s a concatenation of the provided string and the
relevant escape sequences. No idea what exactly defines this escape
sequence (is it just a xterm thing that is now supported relatively
widely?), and this simply uses information provided on the linked github
issue.
Not much of an advantage over --term-status-msg, though at least this
can have a lower update frequency. Also I may consider setting a default
value, and then it shouldn't conflict with the status message.
Fixes: #1725
Commit 9d32d62b61 broke this when it changed OPT_TIME. I simply forgot
to adjust the command definition. The effect was that "no" was not
accepted as value.
This mode drops or repeats audio data to adapt to video speed, instead
of resampling it or such. It was added to deal with SPDIF. The
implementation was part of fill_audio_out_buffers() - the entire
function is something whose complexity exploded in my face, and which I
want to clean up, and this is hopefully a first step.
Put it in a filter, and mess with the shitty glue code. It's all sort of
roundabout and illogical, but that can be rectified later. The important
part is that it works much like the resample or scaletempo filters.
For PCM audio, this does not work on samples anymore. This makes it much
worse. But for PCM you can use saner mechanisms that sound better. Also,
something about PTS tracking is wrong. But not wasting more time on
this.
Can be useful to force it to adapt to extreme speed changes, while a
higher limit would just use a fraction closer to the original video
speed.
Probably useful for testing only.
