So you can pass a command as list of strings (each item is an argument),
instead of having to worry about escaping and such.
These functions also take an argument for the default command flags. In
particular, this allows setting saner defaults for commands sent by
program code.
Expose this to Lua as mp.send_commandv command (suggestions for a better
name welcome). The Lua version doesn't allow setting the default command
flags, but it can still use command prefixes. The default flags are
different from input.conf, and disable OSD and property expansion.
Remove these because I'm too lazy to convert them to proper
STREAM_CTRLs. Considering that probably nobody uses radio://, caring
about this is a complete waste of time. I will add these commands back
if someone asks for them, but I don't expect this to happen.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
Fix off-by-one error in range check.

Conflicts:
input/input.c
This code is already quite different from mplayer-svn, but still the
same bug.
"screenshot" now maps to "screenshot subtitles" by default, instead of
"screenshot video". Swap the argument order: the more useful argument
should come first. Remove the compatibility aliases for numeric choices
(e.g. "screenshot 1 0" won't work anymore).
This adds a new screenshot mode "subtitles", which basically takes the
video frame as decoded, and renders subtitles into it.
This may fail for some pixel formats, because libswscale sucks. If this
becomes ever a real problem, the code could be changed to convert the
image to RGBA first (or whatever the image writer wants), and then
render the subtitles into it. This would avoid the additional image
copy needed with vo_xv too. But for now, it seems better to go with the
current method in the common case: vo_opengl creates an image copy
anyway, and drawing bitmaps to yv12 is better, as no color space
conversion is involved in draw_bmp.c's up/downsampling conversion.
In input test mode, key bindings won't be executed, but are shown on the
OSD. The OSD includes various information, such as the name of the key,
the command itself, whether it's builtin, and the config file location
it was defined.
The input test mode can be enabled with "--input=test". No effort is
spent trying to react to key bindings that normally exit the player;
they are treated just like any other binding.
If parsing a command fails, its location is printed. The location is
the path to the input.conf, and the line number of the key binding and
the associated input command.
Always recognize input commands for optional features (like TV commands
etc.). If these features are disabled, the commands are parsed, but
simply do nothing.
This fixes annoying warnings on start with the default/builtin
input.conf, if certain optional features are not compiled.
This changes the name of this project to mpv. Most user-visible mentions
of "MPlayer" and "mplayer" are changed to "mpv". The binary name and the
default config file location are changed as well.
The new default config file location is: ~/.mpv/
Remove etc/mplayer.desktop. Apparently this was for the MPlayer GUI,
which has been removed from mplayer2 ages ago.
We don't have a logo, and the MS Windows resource files sort-of require
one, so leave etc/mplayer.ico/.xpm as-is.
Remove the debian and rpm packaging scripts. These contained outdated
dependencies and likely were more harmful than useful. (Patches which
add working and well-tested packaging are welcome.)
Allow the values "up" and "down" as step argument for the cycle input
command. Previously, this argument was a float, which specified an
arbitrary step value and direction (similar to the add command).
Instead of "1" and "-1", "up" and "down" is to be used.
Float values are still accepted. That capability might be removed in the
future, as there's probably hardly any actual use for arbitrary step
values.
This disables warning messages when the legacy input command bridge is
used. For now, user input.confs should just keep working as if nothing
has changed. The deprecation warnings will be enabled again at a later
point, and the legacy bridge will be eventually removed.
The "no-osd" prefix was introduced earlier to disable OSD selectively
based on the key binding. Extend this, and allow the user to force
display of an OSD bar ("osd-bar"), OSD message ("osd-msg") or both
("osd-msg-bar"). This changes mainly how property setting functions
behave.
The default behavior is still the same.
Allow using the choice type (as it used for command line) for arguments
of input commands. Change the magic integer arguments of some commands
(like seek) to use choices instead. The old numeric values are still
allowed (but only those which made sense before, not arbitrary
integers).
In order to do this, remove the input.c specific types (like
MP_CMD_ARG_INT) completely and specify commands using the m_option
types.
Also, add the special choice "-" to some arguments. It's supposed to
signify the default value, so arguments can be easily skipped. Maybe the
choice option should recognize this and not change the previous value,
but we'll leave this for later.
For now, leave compatibility integer values for all new choice
arguments, e.g. "0" maps to 0. We could let the choice option type do
this automatically, but we don't, because we want user input values and
internal mplayer values decoupled in general. The compatibility options
will be removed one day, too.
Also, remove optional args for strings - would require either annoying
additional code, or copying strings twice. It's not used, so remove it.
If a command is not found, warn about it at loading time (just like
other command parsing errors are printed at loading time).
Add an explicit "ignore" command. input.conf instructs users to use this
command to cancel out existing mapping. This clashed with the
warning added in this commit. Make "ignore" a real command and remove
the specialcasing for it from get_cmd_from_keys(). Now "ignore" is
ignored because it's not handled in command.c.
Previously, both the command parser and property expansion
(m_properties_expand_string) handled escapes with '\'. Move all escape
handling into the command parser, and remove it from the property code.
This removes the need to escape strings twice for commands that use
property expansion.
The command parser is practically rewritten: it uses m_option for the
actual parsing, and reduces hackish C-string handling.
When input.conf is loaded, verify each command and print a warning if
it's invalid or uses legacy commands. This is done for both the user's
and the embedded config files.
The diff is a bit noisy, because mp_input_parse_cmd() is changed to take
a bstr as argument instead of a char*.
Now it depends on the command whether a property wraps around, or stops
at min/max valid property value.
For practically all properties, it's quite unambiguous what the "switch"
command should have done, and there's technically no need to replace it
with these new commands. More over, most properties that cycle are
boolean anyway. But it seems more orthogonal to make the difference
explicit, rather than hardcoding it. Having different commands also
makes it more explicit to the user what these commands do, both just due
to the naming, and what wrapping policy is used. The code is simpler
too.
Move the code for "switch_ratio" to the M_PROPERTY_SET case of the
"aspect" property. The rules are exactly the same, e.g. setting a ratio
smaller than 0.1 sets the pixel aspect ratio to 1:1. For now, we define
that writing "0" sets the PAR to 1:1, and disallow -1 (possibly reserve
it to reset to default aspect ratio).
Replace --hardframedrop with --framedrop=hard. Rename the framedrop
property from "framedropping" to "framedrop" for the sake of making
command line options have the same name as their corresponding
property. Change the property to accept choice values instead of
numeric values.
Remove unused/forgotten auto_quality variable.
osd_show_[property_]text => show_text
osd_show_progression => show_progress
show_text, osd_show_property_text and osd_show_text both map to the
code for the previous osd_show_property_text. The only special thing
about osd_show_text is that you don't need to escape "$". Also,
unfortunately osd_show_property_text requires escaping things twice,
one time for the command parser, and the other time for the property
formatting code, while osd_show_text needed only one level of escaping.
Use "-" instead of "_" in property names. The intent is that property
names and options names should be the same (if they refer to the same
thing), and options use "-" as word separator.
Rename some other properties too, e.g. "switch_audio" -> "audio".
Add a way to translate the old property names to the new ones, similar
to the input command legacy bridge.
Update input.conf. Use the new property names, and don't use legacy
commands.
Most input commands had their own policy whether to display an OSD
message for user feedback or not. Some commands had two variants, one
that showed an OSD message and one that didn't (e.g. step_property_osd
and step_property).
Change it such that all commands show a message on the OSD. Add a
"no-osd" modifier that disables OSD for that command. Rename the
"step_property" and "step_property_osd" command to "switch", and rename
"set_property" and "set_property_osd" to "set".
Note that commands which haven't used OSD before still don't use OSD.
That will possibly be fixed later. (E.g. "screenshot" could display an
OSD message instead of just printing a message on the terminal.)
The chapter and edition properties still produce OSD messages even with
"no-osd", because they don't map so well to the property_osd_display[]
mechanism.
There are many input commands which are redundant to properties. They
were parsed like normal commands, but set_property_command() in
command.c handled them automatically using the property mechanism. This
still required having the command specifications around, and the code in
command.c was quite messy.
Replace this with a text based replacement mechanism. Some corner cases
are not handled: commands of form "seek_chapter 3 1" are supposed to set
the "chapter" property to 3. This use is probably rare, and doesn't show
up in the default input.conf.
The reason compatibility is kept is because breaking input.conf is quite
annoying, so a minimal effort is made to avoid this. Currently we print
an annoying warning every time a legacy command is used, though.
Also add a compatibility entry for "pt_step", which was removed some
time ago. Variations in whitespace are not handled, but it's good enough
to deal with old input.conf entries.
These have been replaced by properties. Also remove some other slave-
mode specific get commands that can be replaced by property uses.
The get_metadata() function didn't actually contain anything useful,
and just replicated code from other parts of mplayer.
Introduce a general track struct for every audio/video/subtitle track
known to the frontend. External files (subtitles) are now represented
as tracks too. This mainly serves to clean up the subtitle selection
code: now every subtitle is simply a track, instead of using a messy
numbering that goes by subtitle type (as it was stored in the
global_sub_pos field). The mplayer fontend will list external subtitle
files as additional tracks.
The timeline code now tries to match the exact demuxer IDs of all
tracks. This may cause problems when Matroska files with different
track numberings are used with EDL timelines. Change demux_lavf not
to set demuxer IDs, since most time they are not set.
This messes deeply with the subtitle bookkeeping data structures, and
would have to be reimplemented anyway.
It's not sure what this was even useful for. Possibly for slave mode.
Add a flags parameter to mp_input_set_section(). Add a flag that defines
whether bindings in the default section are used or not. This is useful
for special functionality, where the normal key bindings may have
unwanted effects.
For example, it shouldn't be possible to seek during encoding. However,
you want to be able to cancel the encoding process gracefully. For that
purpose, the "encode" section of input.conf could be made exclusive:
mp_input_set_section(mpctx->input, "encode", MP_INPUT_NO_DEFAULT_SECTION);
And input.conf could contain this definition:
RIGHT seek 10
q {encode} quit
Then only the key "q" would be bound during encoding.
When the internal mplayer MPEG demuxer was removed (commit 1fde09db),
the default demuxer when using dvdnav was set to libavformat. Now it
turns out that this doesn't work with libavformat. It will terminate
playback right after the audio runs out (instead of looping it like the
video, or whatever it's supposed to do). I'm not sure what exactly the
problem is, but since 1. even mplayer-svn can't handle DVD menus
directly (missing highlights), 2. DVD menus are essentially worthless,
and 3. I don't directly watch DVDs, don't bother with it and remove it.
For basic playback, there's still libdvdread support.
Also, use pkg-config for libdvdread, and drop support for in-tree
libdvdread. Remove support for in-tree libdvdcss as well.
Options parsing used to be ambiguous, as in the splitting into option
and values pairs was ambiguous. Example:
-option -something
It wasn't clear whether -option actually takes an argument or not. The
string "-something" could either be a separate option, or an argument
to "-option". The code had to call the option specific parser function
to resolve this.
This made everything complicated and didn't even have a real use. There
was only one case where this was actually used: string lists
(m_option_type_string_list) and options based on it. That is because
this option type actually turns a single option into a proxy for several
real arguments, e.g. "vf*" can handle "-vf-add" and "-vf-clr". Options
suffixed with "-clr" are the only options of this group which take no
arguments.
This is ambiguous only with the "old syntax" (as shown above). The "new"
option syntax always puts option name and value into same argument.
(E.g. "--option=--something" or "--option" "--something".)
Simplify the code by making it statically known whether an option takes
a parameter or not with the flag M_OPT_TYPE_OLD_SYNTAX_NO_PARAM. If it's
set, the option parser assumes the option takes no argument.
The only real ambiguity left, string list options that end on "-clr",
are special cased in the parser.
Remove some duplication of the logic in the command line parser by
moving all argument splitting logic into split_opt(). (It's arguable
whether that can be considered code duplication, but now the code is a
bit simpler anyway. This might be subjective.)
Remove the "ambiguous" parameter from all option parsing related code.
Make m_config unaware of the pre-parsing concept.
Make most CONF_NOCFG options also CONF_GLOBAL (except those explicitly
usable as per-file options.)
Teletext requires special OSD support. Because I can't even test
teletext, I can't restore support for it. Since teletext can be
considered ancient and obscure, and since it doesn't make sense to keep
the remaining teletext code without being able to use it, I'm removing
it.
While this was an interesting idea, it wasn't actually useful.
Basically it dumped the raw data (as requested by the demuxer) into a
file. The result is only useful if the file format was raw or maybe
some MPEG packet stream, but not with most modern file formats.
