This provides some helper functions and classes for C++/Qt. As the top
of qthelper.hpp says, this is built on top of the client API, and is a
mere helper provided for convenience.
Maybe this should be a separate library, but on the other hand I don't
see much of a point in that. It's also header-only, but C++ people like
such things. This makes it easier for us, because we don't need to care
about ABI compatibility.
The client API doesn't change, but bump it so that those who are using
this header can declare a proper dependency.
This allows mpv's view to take key and send events to mpv's core.
To set key status correctly, clients must call -[NSWindow selectNextKeyView:]
during reconfig on the main thread. All is 'documented' in the cocoabasic
example.
If someone knows a better way to handle giving key to the embedded view,
let me know!
Allows passing native types as arguments.
Also some minor doc improvements, including giving some (natural)
improvements to mpv_free_node_contents().
Note: mpv_command_node_async() is completely untested.
This reverts commit 45c8b97efb.
Some else complained (github issue #1163).
The feature requested in #1148 will be implemented differently in
the following commit.
The event monitor is used to get keyboard events when there is no window, but
since it is a global monitor to the current process, we don't want it in a
library setting.
After @frau's split of macosx_events from macosx_application, `is_cplayer' is
not needed anymore. At the moment only global events such as Media Keys and
Apple Remote work, because the VO-level ones were hardcoded to be disabled.
(that will be fix in a later commit ).
Maybe using strings for log levels was a mistake (too broad and too
impractical), so I'm adding numeric log level at least for the receiver
side. This makes it easier to map mpv log levels to other logging
systems.
I'm still too stingy to add a function to set the log level by a numeric
value, though.
The numeric values are not directly mapped to the internal mpv values,
because then almost every file in mpv would have to include the client
API header.
Coalesce this into API version 1.6, since 1.6 was bumped just yesterday.
For the purpose of demonstration.
Also make the windows larger. I'm not exactly sure how Qt determines
the default window sizes, but here they are a bit tiny, so force them
larger.
The API could return partial lines, meaning the message could stop
in the middle of a line, and the next message would have the rest of
it (or just the next part of it). This was a pain for the user, so do
the nasty task of buffering the lines ourselves.
Now only complete lines are sent. To make things even easier for the
API user, don't put multiple lines into a single event, but split them.
The terminal output code needed something similar (inserting a prefix
header on start of each line). To avoid code duplication, this commit
refactors the terminal output so that lines are split in a single
place.
Whether you consider the semantics weird or not depends on your use
case, but I suppose it's a bit confusing anyway. At this point, we keep
MPV_EVENT_PAUSE/UNPAUSE for compatibility only.
Make the "core-idle" property somewhat more useful in this context.
Now any action that stops playback of a file (even playlist navigation)
will save the position. Normal EOF is of course excluded from this, as
well as commands that just reload the current file.
The option name is now slightly off, although you could argue what the
word "quit" means.
Fixes#1148 (or at least this is how I understood it).
This is the first of a series of commits that will change the Cocoa way in a
way that is easily embeddable inside parent views. To reach that point common
code must avoid referencing the parent NSWindow since that could be the host
application's window.
This is just temporary code but is a good base for future work (and baby
steps are required for these changes). The 'final destination' is embedding
the video view into any NSView but that requires some more work (the mechanism
will be the same: pass the view's pointer casted to int64_t through -wid).
For instance we will need to remove as much usage of the window instance
as possible, and use nil guards where not possible. For this reason I will
remove stuff like the mission control fullscreen feature (it's a cute feature
but annoying to support and quite limited, go make your GUIs), and a way to
lookup the current screen directly from the NSView absolute coordinates
(this is needed for ICC detection mostly, and reporting back the screen to
mpv's core).
Moreover the current view.m will need to be separated into 2 views: the actual
video view that will be embedded, and a parent view that will not be embedded
and will be responsibile for tracking events.
--x11-netwm=yes now forces NetWM fullscreen, while --x11-netwm=auto
(detect whether NetWM fullsctreen support is available) is the old
behavior and still the default.
See #888.
For the sake of libmpv. Might make things much easier for the user,
especially on Windows. On the other hand, it's a bit sketchy that a
command exists that makes the player access arbitrary memory regions.
(But do note that input commands are not meant to be "secure" and never
were - for example, there's the "run" command, which obviously allows
running random shell commands.)
Use percent-pos instead, which is exactly the same, except with the
range 0.0-100.0.
I'm not sure how this got there; it was probably introduced and then
removed again as percent-pos got more precise.

Apparently this is what users want. When playing with normal speed,
nothing is done. When playing slower than normal, resampling is used
instead, because scaletempo (which does the pitch correction) adds
too many artifacts.
This would play some silence in case video was slower than audio. If
framedropping is already enabled, there's no other way to keep A/V
sync, short of changing audio playback speed (which would give worse
results). The --audiodrop option inserted silence if there was more
than 500ms desync.
This worked somewhat, but I think it was a silly idea after all. Whether
the playback experience is really bad or slightly worse doesn't really
matter. There also was a subtle bug with PTS handling, that apparently
caused A/V desync anyway at ridiculous playback speeds.
Just remove this feature; nobody is going to use it anyway.
The intention was to adjust the window size to video size. It never
worked well; it prevented the user to make the window smaller. For
unknown reason it stopped resizing properly as well.
This is just a cheap example, and I don't intend to fight with Qt, so
replace the "demonstration" behavior by something slightly lamer.
Commit 64b7811c tried to do the "right thing" with respect to whether
keyboard input should be enabled or not. It turns out that X11 does
something stupid by design. All modern toolkits work around this native
X11 behavior, but embedding breaks these workarounds.
The only way to handle this correctly is the XEmbed protocol. It needs
to be supported by the toolkit, and probably also some mpv support. But
Qt has inconsistent support for it. In Qt 4, a X11 specific embedding
widget was needed. Qt 5.0 doesn't support it at all. Qt 5.1 apparently
supports it via QWindow, but if it really does, I couldn't get it to
work.
So add a hack instead. The new --input-x11-keyboard option controls
whether mpv should enable keyboard input on the X11 window or not. In
the command line player, it's enabled by default, but in libmpv it's
disabled.
This hack has the same problem as all previous embedding had: move the
mouse outside of the window, and you don't get keyboard input anymore.
Likewise, mpv will steal all keyboard input from the parent application
as long as the mouse is inside of the mpv window.
Also see issue #1090.
For a while, we used this to transfer PCM from demuxer to the filter
chain. We had a special "codec" that mapped what MPlayer used to do
(MPlayer passes the AF sample format over an extra field to ad_pcm,
which specially interprets it).
Do this by providing a mp_set_pcm_codec() function, which describes a
sample format in a generic way, and sets the appropriate demuxer header
fields so that libavcodec interprets it correctly. We use the fact that
libavcodec has separate PCM decoders for each format. These are
systematically named, so we can easily map them.
This has the advantage that we can change the audio filter chain as we
like, without losing features from the "rawaudio" demuxer. In fact, this
commit also gets rid of the audio filter chain formats completely.
Instead have an explicit list of PCM formats. (We could even just have
the user pass libavcodec PCM decoder names directly, but that would be
annoying in other ways.)
Until now, the audio chain could handle both little endian and big
endian formats. This actually doesn't make much sense, since the audio
API and the HW will most likely prefer native formats. Or at the very
least, it should be trivial for audio drivers to do the byte swapping
themselves.
From now on, the audio chain contains native-endian formats only. All
AOs and some filters are adjusted. af_convertsignendian.c is now wrongly
named, but the filter name is adjusted. In some cases, the audio
infrastructure was reused on the demuxer side, but that is relatively
easy to rectify.
This is a quite intrusive and radical change. It's possible that it will
break some things (especially if they're obscure or not Linux), so watch
out for regressions. It's probably still better to do it the bulldozer
way, since slow transition and researching foreign platforms would take
a lot of time and effort.
E.g. --loop-file=2 will play the file 3 times (one time normally, and 2
repeats).
Minor syntax issue: "--loop-file 5" won't work, you have to use
"--loop-file=5". This is because "--loop-file" still has to work for
compatibility, so the "old" syntax with a space between option name and
value can't work.
It's just confusing; users are encouraged to edit input.conf instead
(changing the argument to the "add" command).
Update input.conf to keep the old behavior.
vo_vdpau uses its own framedrop code, mostly for historic reasons. It
has some tricky heuristics, of which I'm not sure how they work, or if
they have any effect at all, but in any case, I want to keep this code
for now. One day it might get fully ported to the vo.c framedrop code,
or just removed.
But improve its interaction with the user-visible framedrop controls.
Make --framedrop actually enable and disable the vo_vdpau framedrop
code, and increment the number of dropped frames correctly.
The code path for other VOs should be equivalent. The vo_vdpau behavior
should, except for the improvements mentioned above, be mostly
equivalent as well. One minor change is that frames "shown" during
preemption are always count as dropped.
Remove the statement from the manpage that vo_vdpau is the default; this
hasn't been the case for a while.
