The quicktime html scripting guide suggests to wrap urls not
necesarly associated with quicktime in a .mov file.
(so that when <embed>ing videos quicktime would be forced.)
These mov files may contain several "Text Hacks".
One of these is RTSPtext.
The suggested/allowed format (as regex) is like:
RTSPtext[ \r]RTSP://url
See also p.51 of:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/QuickTime/Conceptual/QTScripting_HTML/QTScripting_HTML.pdf
In reality there are also files like (e.g. zdfmediathek.de):
RTSPtext\nrtsp://url\n\n
Lets handle these files as a playlist with one element.
In init_vo(), if sh->aspect is 0 or last_sample_aspect_ratio is set,
sh->aspect is overwritten. With software decoding fallback behaviour,
this makes the aspect ratio from container ignored since
last_sample_aspect_ratio is already set in first try with hardware
decoding.
The --deinterlace option does on playback start what the "deinterlace"
property normally does at runtime. You could do this before by using the
--vf option or by messing with the vo_vdpau default options, but this
new option is supposed to be a "foolproof" way.
The main motivation for adding this is so that the deinterlace property
can be restored when using the video resume functionality
(quit_watch_later command).
Implementation-wise, this is a bit messy. The video chain is rebuilt in
mpcodecs_reconfig_vo(), where we don't have access to MPContext, so the
usual mechanism for enabling deinterlacing can't be used. Further,
mpcodecs_reconfig_vo() is called by the video decoder, which doesn't
have access to MPContext either. Moving this call to mplayer.c isn't
currently possible either (see below). So we just do this before frames
are filtered, which potentially means setting the deinterlacing every
frame. Fortunately, setting deinterlacing is stable and idempotent, so
this is hopefully not a problem. We also add a counter that is
incremented on each reconfig to reduce the amount of additional work per
frame to nearly zero.
The reason we can't move mpcodecs_reconfig_vo() to mplayer.c is because
of hardware decoding: we need to check whether the video chain works
before we decide that we can use hardware decoding. Changing it so that
this can be decided in advance without building a filter chain sounds
like a good idea and should be done, but we aren't there yet.
I did commit 86c05655d by thinking `mpv` already removed the `mpv` from
argc/argv. It actually is still there, so the argc must be 1 to check for no
arguments.
Thanks to @Nyx0uf for pointing out the bug and for testing on 10.9!
File opening through Finder, apparently drops `--psn` arguments on Mavericks
and just uses no args. Modify the code to account for that case.
This wasn't tested on 10.9 itself (I don't have a paid dev account), but it
*should* work if I understood the problem correctly.
Problem: I own the buffer and I destroyed while still being displayed.
Solution: Add a temporary buffer and destroy it when the next buffer is
attached.
Previously, mpv incorrectly used the %HOME% environment variable on
MinGW to determine the current user’s home directory. This is wrong;
the correct variable to use would be %HOMEPATH%, which would however
still be wrong since application data goes into the application data
directory, not the user’s home. This patch makes it use the local
AppData path instead of reading an environment variable.
This however exposed another problem (which also affected users who
actually had the %HOME% variable set):
b2c2fe7a37 (discussed in issue #95) introduced some changes that
make mpv load user config files from the executable path on Windows.
The problem with this change is that config_dir was still declared
static, so once a config file had been found in the executable path,
it would set config_dir to an empty string, so mpv would dump e.g.
watch_later data straight into the user’s home. This commit also
fixes that.
One side effect of this is that mpv no longer considers the “mpv”
subdirectory in the executable path (that behavior resulted from
the homedir variable always being empty), unless it is somehow
unable to determine the local AppData path.
This is mostly related to the fullscreen behaviour. cecbd8864 introduces an
option to make mpv behave like a OSX user would expect. This commit changes
the Cocoa parts of the code to be consistent with the behaviour on X11. Old
behaviour is still available through the option mentioned in cecbd8864.
There is still custom logic in the cocoa backend and it can probably be moved
to core:
* Don't perform autohide if the mouse is down
* Don't perform autohide outside of the video window
Fixes#218 (by accident)
libquvi 0.4 doesn't allow us listing the formats supported by a
streaming site without doing additional network accesses, so switching
formats was not supported with it. (It's different with libquvi 0.9.)
But the most important case is switching between SD and HD. Usually,
--quvi-format=default will get SD, while --quvi-format=best gives HD.
Use this, and pretend that an URL supported by libquvi 0.4 supports both
of these. "cycle quvi-format" will switch between these. If the user
specifies something else via --quvi-format, this is included in the list
of switchable formats additionally to "default" and "best".
It's annoying for users if you can't get a list of options with --help,
but on the other hand, printing all options would be overkill. So just
mentioned --list-options.
Retrieve per-chapter metadata, but don't do much with it. We just make
the metadata of the _current_ chapter available as chapter-metadata
property. Returning the full chapter list with metadata would be no
problem, except that the property interface isn't really good with
structured data, so it's not available for now.
Not sure if it's worth it, but it was requested via github issue #201.
