Now macosx_menubar.m and mpv.rc (win32) use the same copyright string.
(This is a bit roundabout, because mpv.rc can't use C constants. Also
the C code wants to avoid rebuilding real source files if only version.h
changed, so only version.c includes version.h.)
This commit introduces a new --oset-metadata key-value-list option,
allowing the user to specify output metadata when encoding
(eg. --oset-metadata=title="Hello",comment="World").
A second option --oremove-metadata is added to exclude existing metadata
from the output file (assuming --ocopy-metadata is enabled).
Not all output formats support all tags, but luckily libavcodec
simply discards unsupported keys.
--copy-metadata describes the result of the option better, (copying metadata
from the source file to the output file). Marks the old --no-ometadata
OPT_REMOVED with a suggestion for the new --no-ocopy-metadata.
I've decided that MP_TRACE means “noisy spam per frame”, whereas
MP_DBG just means “more verbose debugging messages than MSGL_V”.
Basically, MSGL_DBG shouldn't create spam per frame like it currently
does, and MSGL_V should make sense to the end-user and provide mostly
additional informational output.
MP_DBG is basically what I want to make the new default for --log-file,
so the cut-off point for MP_DBG is if we probably want to know if for
debugging purposes but the user most likely doesn't care about on the
terminal.
Also, the debug callbacks for libass and ffmpeg got bumped in their
verbosity levels slightly, because being external components they're a
bit less relevant to mpv debugging, and a bit too over-eager in what
they consider to be relevant information.
I exclusively used the "try it on my machine and remove messages from
MSGL_* until it does what I want it to" approach of refactoring, so
YMMV.
Seems like they finally got rid of this. It was the first lavc vdpau
API, and mpv stopped supporting it in favor of newer APIs a long time
ago, causing confusion to users who tried to enable vdpau decoding by
forcing the decoders (MPlayer style).
Apparently some people want this. Actually making it compile is still
their problem, though, and I expect that build with FFmpeg upstream will
occasionally be broken (as it is right now). This is because mpv also
relies on API provided by Libav, and if FFmpeg hasn't merged that yet,
it's not our problem - we provide a version of FFmpeg upstream with
those changes merged, and it's called ffmpeg-mpv.
Also adjust the README which still talked about FFmpeg releases.
The same should happen with any other side data that matters to mpv,
otherwise filters will drop it.
(No, don't try to argue that mpv should use AVFrame. That won't work.)
ffmpeg_garbage() is copy&paste from frame_new_side_data() in FFmpeg
(roughly feed201849b8f91), because it's not public API. The name
reflects my opinion about FFmpeg's API.
In mp_image_to_av_frame(), change the too-fragile
*new_ref = (struct mp_image){0};
into explicitly zeroing out the fields that are "transferred" to the
created AVFrame.
But --msg-level can only raise the log level used for --log-file,
because the original idea with --log-file was that it'd log verbose
messages to disk even if terminal logging is lower than -v or fully
disabled.
See "Copyright" file for caveats.
This changes the remaining "almost LGPL" files to LGPL, because we think
that the conditions the author set for these was finally fulfilled.
Commit 0e0b87b6f3 fixed that dropped packets did not trigger further
work correctly. But it also made trivial --lavfi-complex freeze. The
reason is that the meaning if DATA_AGAIN was overloaded: the decoders
meant that they should be called again, while lavfi.c meant that other
outputs needed to be checked again. Rename the latter meaning to
DATA_STARVE, which means that the current input will deliver no more
data, until "other" work has been done (like reading other outputs, or
feeding input).
The decoders never return DATA_STARVE, because they don't get input from
the player core (instead, they get it from the demuxer directly, which
is why they still can return DATA_WAIT).
Also document the DATA_* semantics in the enum.
Fixes#4746.
Move multiple GL-specific things from the renderer to other places like
vo_opengl.c, vo_opengl_cb.c, and ra_gl.c.
The vp_w/vp_h parameters to gl_video_resize() make no sense anymore, and
are implicitly part of struct fbodst.
Checking the main framebuffer depth is moved to vo_opengl.c. For
vo_opengl_cb.c it always assumes 8. The API user now has to override
this manually. The previous heuristic didn't make much sense anyway.
The only remaining dependency on GL is the hwdec stuff, which is harder
to change.
Seems like I really like this C99 idiom. No reason not to generalize it
do snprintf(). Introduce mp_tprintf(), which basically this idiom to
snprintf(). This macro looks like it returns a string that was allocated
with alloca() on the caller site, except it's portable C99/C11. (And
unlike alloca(), the result is valid only within block scope.)
Use it in 2 places in the vo_opengl code. But it has the potential to
make a whole bunch of weird looking code look slightly nicer.
This API isn't deprecated (yet?), but it's still inferior and harder to
use than avcodec_free_context().
Leave the call only in 1 case in af_lavcac3enc.c, where we apparently
seriously close and reopen the encoder for whatever reason.
This affects options like --vf or --display-tags. These used a "*"
suffix to match all options starting with a specific name, and handled
the rest in the option parser. Change this to remove the "*" special
case, and require every option parser to declare a list of allowed
suffixes via m_option_type.actions.
The new way is conceptually simpler, because we don't have to account
for the "*" in a bunch of places anymore, and instead everything is
centrally handled in the CLI part of the option parser, where it's
actually needed.
It automatically enables suffixes like -add for a bunch of other
stringlist options.
This was especially grating because it causes problems with the
option/property unification, uses as only thing OPT_FLAG_STORE, and
behaves weird with the client API or scripts.
It can be reimplemented in a much simpler way, although it needs
slightly more code. (Simpler because less special cases.)
If --log-file was used in config files, this could be missing due to the
exact timing when the messages are print, and when the options are
applied. Fix this by always dumping the version again when a log file is
opened.
msg.c is "partial" due to "michael", whose work can be changed to LGPL
only once the core is LGPL. It's explained in the Copyright file. I
prefer to do the relicensing incrementally (due to the overwhelming
workload). Changing the license before that happens would be legally
questionable, but nothing can stop us from essentially marking it as
"will be LGPL".
All authors have agreed to LGPL, with the following exceptions:
9df11ee8bf: the author (probably) didn't agree, but the line that is
added is later fully removed.
35e90f1556: was not asked, but all iconv code was 100% removed from the
mp_msg mechanism (we alwas require UTF-8 now).
4e4f3f806e: the change by michael.
50a86fcc34: the identify variable was move, and completely removed the
latest in commit 48bd03dd91.
1f6c494641: did not agree, but due to a major mp_msg change the added
line became unnecessary and was removed.
da63498bf9: was not reachable, but the MPlayer GUI is gone from mpv
anyway (also commit fc4d6e617d removed these specific additions a long
time ago).
The only definitions from MPlayer code are the CONTROL_* defines (added
in 7a2eec4b as part of libao2 - not part of libao), and MP_NOPTS_VALUE,
which was added in e6338c58. The latter is by "michael", who has agreed
under the condition that the core is LGPL, which has not happened yet,
but considering the macro definition used to be different, has the same
value and similar name to libavformat's AV_NOPTS_VALUE (which existed
first, and as LGPL), and that this almost certainly not copyrightable,
I'm assuming that this is fine.
In a first pass, we check whether libavcodec is present.
Then we try to compile a snippet and check for FFmpeg vs. Libav. (This
could probably also be done by somehow checking the pkgconfig version.
But pkg-config can't deal with that idiotic FFmpeg idea that a micro
version number >= 100 identifies FFmpeg vs. Libav.)
After that we check the project-specific version numbers. This means it
can no longer happen that we accidentally allow older, unsupported
versions of FFmpeg, just because the Libav version numbers are somehow
this way.
Also drop the resampler checks. We hardcode which resampler to each with
each project. A user can no longer force use of libavresample with
FFmpeg.
avcodec_parameters_to_context() overwrites codec_type and codec_id. But
we already set these by passing the selected AVCodec to
avcodec_alloc_context3(). It's entirely possible that at least codec_id
is different when forcing codecs with --ad/--vd. It's probably better
not to cause confusion by overwriting them. It might even trigger
undefined behavior in libavcodec (how it behaves or whether codec_id is
supposed to be strictly set is unknown, though).
This can be useful in other contexts.
Note that we end up setting AVCodecContext.width/height instead of
coded_width/coded_height now. AVCodecParameters can't set coded_width,
but this is probably more correct anyway.
This attempted to pass through double float timestamps in a bit exact
way by reinterpret casting them to int64_t. This usually worked, because
libavcodec (in decoding mode) is mostly not allowed to interpret
timestamps. libavcodec doesn't even know the unit of the timestamps,
unless the API user sets a timebase.
We've stopped doing this, and always set a timebase. Only ad_spdif.c
still used this (indirectly through mp_set_av_packet()), but doesn't
actually need timestamps on the packet. In fact, it's already explicitly
setting the packet timestamp fields to 0 before passing it to FFmpeg
API.
This code is unused, and the passthrough method wasn't terribly elegant
to begin with. Drop this code. Arbitrarily use AV_TIME_BASE_Q as
fallback in situations the passthrough was used.
Remove ad_spdif from the normal codec list, and select it explicitly.
One goal was to decouple this from the normal codec selection, so
they're less entangled and the decoder selection code can be simplified
in the far future. This means spdif codec selection is now done
explicitly via select_spdif_codec(). We can also remove the weird
requirements on "dts" and "dts-hd" for the --audio-spdif option, and it
can just do the right thing.
Now both video and audio codecs consist of a single codec family each,
vd_lavc and ad_lavc.
av_reduce(&num, &den, 1, 14112000, 1000000) can return num=0, den=1.
This means a 1/14112000 timebase (as used by the mp3 demuxer) would
become invalid.
The intention of mp_get_codec_timebase() is to always return a valid
timebase. av_reduce() probably does the logically correct thing - so add
a fallback to the safe default timebase.
Also, increase the av_reduce() parameter to INT_MAX. Let's just pray
this doesn't cause any actual problems. libavformat does the same, but
might be in a different position due to using av_rescale() etc., while
we convert between fractional timestamps and floats.
FFmpeg recently got "support" for mov edit lists. This is a terrible
hack that will fail completely at least with some decoders (in
particular wrappers for hardware decoding might be affected). As such it
makes no point to pretend they are supported, even if we assume that the
"intended" functionality works, that there are no implementation bugs
(good luck with all that messy code added to the already huge mov
demuxer), and that it covers enough of the mov edit list feature to be
of value.
So log an error if the FFmpeg code for mov edit lists appears to be
active - AV_PKT_FLAG_DISCARD is used only for "clipping" edit list
segments on non-key frame boundaries.
In the first place, FFmpeg committed this only because Google wanted it
in, and patch review did not even pick up obvious issues. (Just look how
there was no lavc version bump when AV_PKT_FLAG_DISCARD was added.)
We still pass the new packet flag to the decoders (av_common.c change),
which means we "support" FFmpeg's edit list code now. (Until it breaks
due to FFmpeg not caring about all the details.)
Both AVFrame.pts and AVFrame.pkt_pts have existed for a long time. Until
now, decoders always returned the pts via the pkt_pts field, while the
pts field was used for encoding and libavfilter only. Recently, pkt_pts
was deprecated, and pts was switched to always carry the pts.
This means we have to be careful not to accidentally use the wrong
field, depending on the libavcodec version. We have to explicitly check
the version numbers. Of course the version numbers are completely
idiotic, because idiotically the pkg-config and library names are the
same for FFmpeg and Libav, so we have to deal with this explicitly as
well.
We'd like to get log messages on the output as soon as possible in the
output. I also feel like using fflush() is nicer than using setvbuf().
Who knows how the latter behaves on win32.
Seems like a valid use-case. Not sure if I like it calling back into the
config code. Care has to be taken for not letting the config path
resolving code dead-lock (which is why locking details in the msg.c code
are changed).
Fixes#3591.
With the merging of options and properties, the mpv_set_option()
function is close to being useless, and mpv_set_property() can be used
for everything instead. There are certain conflicts remaining, which are
explained in depth in the docs. For now, none of this should affect
existing code using the client API.
Make mpv_set_property() redirect to mpv_set_option() before
initialization.
Remove some options marked as M_OPT_FIXED. The "pause" and "speed"
options cannot be written anymore without the playloop being notified by
it, so the M_OPT_FIXED does nothing. For "vo-mmcss-profile", the problem
was lack of synchronization, which has been added. I'm not sure what the
problem was with "frames" - I think it was only marked as M_OPT_FIXED
because changing it during playback will have no effect. Except for
pause/speed, these changes are needed to make them writable as
properties after mpv_initialize().
Also replace all remaining uses of CONF_GLOBAL with M_OPT_FIXED.
The way option runtime changes are handled is pretty bad in the current
codebase. There's a big option struct (MPOpts), which contains almost
everything, and for which no synchronization mechanism exists. This was
handled by either making some options read-only after initialization,
duplicating the option struct, using sub-options (in the VO), and so on.
Introduce a mechanism that creates a copy of the global options (or
parts of it), and provides a well-defined way to update them in a
thread-safe way.
Most code can remain the same, just that all the component glue code has
to explicitly make use of it first.
There is still lots of room for improvement. For example, the update
mechanism could be better.
Instead of passing through double float timestamps opaquely, pass real
timestamps. Do so by always setting a valid timebase on the
AVCodecContext for audio and video decoding.
Specifically try not to round timestamps to a too coarse timebase, which
could round off small adjustments to timestamps (such as for start time
rebasing or demux_timeline). If the timebase is considered too coarse,
make it finer.
This gets rid of the need to do this specifically for some hardware
decoding wrapper. The old method of passing through double timestamps
was also a bit questionable. While libavcodec is not supposed to
interpret timestamps at all if no timebase is provided, it was
needlessly tricky. Also, it actually does compare them with
AV_NOPTS_VALUE. This change will probably also reduce confusion in the
future.
We don't support this anymore.
This tries to exit in a controlled way after command line options are
applied in order to honor logging options and, in case of libmpv, not to
kill the host. Not sure if it would be better to just vomit text to
stderr and call abort().
AVFormatContext.codec is deprecated now, and you're supposed to use
AVFormatContext.codecpar instead.
Handle this for all of the normal playback code.
Encoding mode isn't touched.
The old algorithm produced results which were not uniformly distributed,
i.e. some particular shuffles were preferred over others.
The new algorithm is an implementation of the Fisher-Yates shuffle which
is guaranteed to shuffle uniformly given a sufficiently uniform rand()
and ignoring potential floating-point errors.

Completely pointless abominations that FFmpeg refuses to remove. They
are ancient, long deprecated API which we can't use anymore. They
confused users as well.
Pretend that they don't exist. Due to the way --vd works, they can't
even be forced anymore. The older hack which explicitly rejects these
can be dropped as well.
The goal is reducing log messups (which happen surprisingly often) by
buffering partial lines in mp_log. This is still not 100% reliable, but
better.
The extrabuffers for MSGL_STATUS and MSGL_STATS are not needed anymore,
because a separate mp_log instance can be used if problems really occur.
Also, give up, and replace the snprintf acrobatics with bstr.
mp_log.partial has a quite subtle problem wrt. talloc: talloc parents
can not be used, because there's no lock around the internal talloc
structures associated with mp_log. Thus it has to be freed manually,
even if this happens through a talloc destructor.
We want to add a prefix to the ffmpeg log message, so we called mp_msg
multiple times until now. But logging such partial lines is a race
condition, because there's only one internal mp_msg buffer, and no
external mp_msg locks.
Avoid this by building the message on a stack buffer.
I might make a mp_log-local partial line buffer, but even then av_log()
can be called from multiple threads, while targetting the same mp_log.
(Really, ffmpeg's log API needs to be fixed.)
Until now, a rather large stack buffer was used for this, and also a
static buffer in mp_log_root. The latter was added to buffer partial
lines, and the stack buffer was used only for MSGL_STATUS and MSGL_STATS
(I guess because these are the most likely/severe to clash with partial
line buffering).
Make the buffer in mp_log_root dynamically sized, so we don't get cut
off log lines if the text is excessively large. (The OpenGL extension
list dumped by vo_opengl is such an example.)
Since we still have to support partial line buffering (FFmpeg's log
callbacks leave no other choice), keep the stack buffer. But make it
smaller; there's no way all ~6KB are going to be needed in any
situation.
The complex filter support that will be added makes much more complex
use of libavfilter, and I'm not going to bother with adding hacks to
keep libavfilter optional.
Will be helpful for the coming filter support. I planned on merging
audio/video decoding, but this will have to wait a bit longer, so only
remove the duplicate status codes.
This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.
There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.
A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).
common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.
codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.
From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).
misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.
screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.
Makes the next commit simpler. It's probably a bad idea to add more
fields to the global state, but on the other hand the client API state
is pretty much per-instance anyway. It also will help with things like
the proposed libmpv custom stream API.
mp_parse_escape() is used by the JSON parser in json.c, and JSON allows
escaping "/" (solidus).
Although it makes no sense, apparently Javascript traditionally allowed
that as escape sequence for working around issues with embedding
Javascript in HTML. (Or something like this must have been the history
of this issue.) Since it's valid in Javascript, it had to be valid in
JSON as well, and JSON explicitly specifies it as valid escape.
Fixes#2694.
If you do "mpv /bla/", and then branch out into sub-directories using
playlist navigation, and then used quit and watch later, then playing
the same directory did not resume from the previous point. This was
because resuming is based on the path hash, so a path prefix can't be
detected when resuming the parent directory.
Solve this by writing each path prefix when playing directories is
involved. (This includes all parent paths, so interestingly, "mpv /"
would also resume in the above example.)
Something like this was requested multiple times, and I want it too.
This fixes initial decoding of some samples. See #1341.
According to Libav devs, this should be considered a libavcodec bug, but
as it's hard to fix, here we go.
As the removed comment says, not copying this field may cause problems
on older libav* releases. See also commit 5f7de399.
Remove this, as newer FFmpeg releases are available. As of this commit,
use of mpv with FFmpeg 2.5.x and below, or Libav 11 and below is not
recommended, and may lead to random video decoding issues. (Although the
failure cases are apparently somewhat obscure.)
That just makes no sense, but seems to be a somewhat common user error.
The detection is not perfect. It's conceivable that EXT-X-... headers
are used in normal m3u playlists. After all, HLS playlists are by
definition a compatible extension to m3u playlists, as stupid as it
sounds.
Client API users can enable log output with mpv_request_log_messages().
But you can enable only a single log level. This is normally enough, but
the --msg-level option (which controls the terminal log level) provides
more flexibility. Due to internal complexity, it would be hard to
provide the same flexibility for each client API handle. But there's a
simple way to achieve basically the same thing: add an option that sends
log messages to the API handle, which would also be printed to the
terminal as by --msg-level.
The only change is that we don't disable this logic if the terminal is
disabled. Instead we check for this before the message is output, which
in theory can lower performance if messages are being spammed. It could
be handled with some more effort, but the gain would be negligible.
This happens with av_log(NULL, ...) calls. Drop the "?: " fallback
prefix, because it was confusing.
(Of course FFmpeg should not do this at all, but it's a very long way to
making the FFmpeg log callback sane.)
This is slightly "dangerous", because it could overwrite a log callback
another library has set, after we've set our own callback. But it's
probably still slightly better than leaving our own callback, which will
run the fallback code if no mpv instance is set. (Multiple mpv instances
sharing the same global state will safely avoid overwriting each other's
log callback.)
Note that we can't do much better, because the global state in FFmpeg is
obviously insane.
This provides a new method for enabling spdif passthrough. The old
method via --ad (--ad=spdif:ac3 etc.) is deprecated. The deprecated
method will probably stop working at some point.
This also supports PCM fallback. One caveat is that it will lose at
least 1 audio packet in doing so. (I don't care enough to prevent this.)
(This is named after the old S/PDIF connector, because it uses the same
underlying technology as far as the higher level protoco is concerned.
Also, the user should be renamed that passthrough is backwards.)
Right now, the default behavior is to pick the numerically lowest screen
ID that overlaps the window in any way - but this means that mpv will
decide to pick an ICC profile in a pretty arbitrary way even if the
window only overlaps another screen by a single pixel.
The new behavior is to query it based on the center of the window
instead.
This was traditionally needed to silence terminal output from errors
during command line parsing preparsing. Preparsing is done so that
options controlling the terminal and config files are parsed and applied
first, with a second command line parsing pass applying all other
options, _and_ printing error messages for the preparsed ones.
But the hack silencing log output during the preparse pass is actually
not needed anymore, since the terminal is enabled only after preparsing
is finished. update_logging() in main.c does this.
So as long as update_logging() is called before
m_config_preparse_command_line(), this will work.
This duplicates the logic which FFmpeg's libavcodec uses. The effects
are unknown, though it's somewhat clear that a single thread doesn't
necessarily saturate a single CPU.
(Eventually we should just let FFmpeg auto-init the thread count, but
for now I prefer it this way, so e.g. verbose mode will print the
thread count.)
It was possible to make the player play local files by putting rar://
links into remote playlists, and some other potentially unsafe things.
Redo the handling of it. Now the rar-redirector (the thing in
demux_playlist.c) sets disable_safety, which makes the player open any
playlist entries returned. This is fine, because it redirects to the
same file anyway (just with different selection/interpretation of the
contents). On the other hand, rar:// itself is now considered fully
unsafe, which means that it is ignored if found in normal playlists.
