Sigh...
The C locale system is incredibly shitty, and if used, breaks basic
string functions. The locale can change the decimal mark from "." to
",", which affects conversion between floats and strings: snprintf() and
strtod() respect the locale decimal mark, and change behavior. (What's
even better, the behavior of these functions can change asynchronously,
if setlocale() is called after threads were started.)
So just check the locale in the client API, and refuse to work if it's
wrong. This also makes the lib print to stderr, which I consider the
lesser evil in this specific situation.
This function is always available, which is reflected by the fact that
the configure check doesn't actually bother to check for its existence.
Instead, MinGW and Cygwin imply it. The check was probably "needed" when
the priority code was still in a separate source file.
Remove the check, and use _WIN32 for testing for the win32 API (in a
bunch of other places too).
Pass through the seek flags to the stream layer. The STREAM_CTRL
semantics become a bit awkward, but that's still the least awkward
part about optical disc media.
Make demux_disc.c request relative seeks. Now the player will use
relative seeks if the user sends relative seek commands, and the
demuxer announces it wants these by setting rel_seeks to true. This
change probably changes seek behavior for dvd, dvdnav, bluray, cdda,
and possibly makes seeking useless if the demuxer-cache is set to
a high value.
Will be used in the next commit. (Split to make reverting the next
commit easier.)
Before this, we merely printed a message to the terminal. Now the API
user can determine this properly. This might be important for API users
which somehow maintain complex state, which all has to be invalidated if
(state-changing) events are missing due to an overflow.
This also forces the client API user to empty the event queue, which is
good, because otherwise the event queue would reach the "filled up"
state immediately again due to further asynchronous events being added
to the queue.
Also add some minor improvements to mpv_wait_event() documentation, and
some other minor cosmetic changes.
We still need to send the VO a duration in these cases. Disabling
framedrop has logically absolutely nothing to do with these cases; it
was overlooked in commit 918b06c4.
So we always send the frame duration (or a guess for it), and check
whether framedropping is actually enabled in the VO code. (It would
be cleaner to send framedrop as a flag, but I don't care about that
right now.)
The "ontop" and "border" properties already used a common
mp_property_vo_flag() function, and the corresponding VOCTRLs used the
same conventions. "fullscreen" is pretty similar, but was handled
slightly similar. Change how VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN behaves, and use the same
helper function for "fullscreen" as the other flags.
This is for the ordered chapters case only. In theory this could have
resulted in initial audio, video or subs missing, although it didn't
happen in practice (because no streams were selected, thus the demuxer
thread didn't actually try to read anything). It's still better to make
this explicit.
Also, timeline_set_part() can be private to loadfile.c.
The last video frame is another case that has a separate code path,
although it's pretty similar to the one in commit 73e5aa87. Fix this
in a different way, which also takes care of the last frame case,
although without context the code becomes slightly more tricky.
As further cleanup, move the decision about framedropping itself to
the same place, so the check in vo.c becomes much simpler. The check
for the vo->driver->encode flag, which is remvoed completely, was
redundant too.
Fixes#1480.
If the video format changes (e.g. different frame size), a special code
path is entered to wait until the currently displayed frame is done.
Otherwise, the frame before the change would be destroyed by the
vo_reconfig() call.
This code path didn't respect --untimed; correct this.
Fixes#1475.
This was forgotten when the option was implemented, and makes this
option work as advertised.
Fixes#1473 (though the default behavior is probably still stupid).
Upon the "DEL" key binding or the "disable-osc" message, the OSC should
stay permanently invisible. This was recently broken (not sure by what),
because other code accidentally reenables it anyway, which resulted in
the OSC appearing again when moving the mouse.
The percent-pos property normally goes by time, except for file formats
like .ts or .ogg, where you can't trust the timestamps and duration info
to compute the position in the overall files. These use the byte
position and size instead.
When the file position was unavailable (e.g. due to an ongoing seek),
the percent-pos was unknown. Change it to use the time position instead.
In most cases, it's actually accurate enough, and the temporary
unavailability of the property can be annoying, e.g. on the terminal
status line.
mpv needs at least an audio or video track to play something. If the
track selection is basically insufficient, the player will immediately
skip to the next file (or quit).
One slightly annoying thing might be that trying to play a subtitle file
will close the VO window, and then go to the next file immediately (so
"mpv 1.mkv 2.srt 3.mkv" would flash the video window when 2.srt is
skipped). Move the check to before the video window is possibly closed.
This is a minor cosmetic issue; one can use --force-window to avoid
closing the video window at all.
Fixes#1459.
We now use threads and other pthread API a lot, and not always we use it
from threads created with pthread_create() (or the main thread). As I
understand, with static linking we would have to use
pthread_win32_thread_attach/detach_np() every time we enter or leave a
foreign thread. We don't do this, and it's not feasible either, so it's
just broken.
This still should work with dynamic pthreads-win32. The MinGW pthread
implementation should be unaffected from all of this.
Make their meaning more exact, and don't pretend that there's a
reasonable definition for "bits-per-pixel". Also make unset fields
unavailable.
average_depth still might be inconsistent: for example, 10 bit 4:2:0 is
identified as 24 bits, but RGB 4:4:4 as 12 bits. So YUV formats
seemingly drop the per-component padding, while RGB formats do not.
Internally it's consistent though: 10 bit YUV components are read as
16 bit, and the padding must be 0 (it's basically like an odd fixed-
point representation, rather than a bitfield).
bpp(bits-per-pixel) and depth(bit-depth for color component) can
be calculated from pixelformat technically but it requires massive
informations to be implemented in client side.
These subproperties are provided for convenience.
Enable asynchronous reading for external files. This excludes subtitle
files (so it's effectively enabled for audio files only), because most
subtitle files are fully read on loading, and running a thread for them
would just cause slowdowns and increase resource usage, without having
any advantages.
In theory, an external file could provide multiple tracks from the same
demuxer, but demux_start_thread() is idempotent, so the code can be
kept simple.
Should help with playing DASH with ytdl_hook.
If there's only 1 chapter, the seeking by chapter (using the chapter
property) will either jump to the chapter point, or quit playback. This
is as designed, but seems like a useless and annoying behavior.
mpv_opengl_cb_uninit_gl() can be called at any time; but then the
decoder must be destroyed due to complications with hardware decoding.
This is why kill_video() exists. To make things easier, there is the
invariant that while vo_opengl_cb is active, the OpenGL state must
exist. But kill_video() didn't actually destroy the VO; only the video
decoder. This could trigger an assertion (vo_opengl_cb.c:187).
Actually, the video output is always destroyed lazily at a later point
if the decoder is destroyed, but not early enough for out purposes.
There are currently 568 pixel formats (actually fewer, but the namespace
is this big), and for each format elaborate synchronization was done to
call it synchronously on the VO. This is completely unnecessary, and we
can do with just a single call.
This is basically a hack; but apparently a needed one, since many
vapoursynth filters insist on having a FPS set.
We need to apply the FPS override before creating the filters. Also
change some terminal output related to the FPS value.
Most of this is explained in the code comments. This change should
improve performance with vapoursynth, especially if concurrent requests
are used.
This should change nothing if vf_vapoursynth is not in the filter chain,
since non-threaded filters obviously can not asynchronously finish
filtering of frames.
Mostly of cosmetic nature. Move initialization to the same place where
another component (cocoa) will start accessing the input context from a
foreign thread.
It was requested that mpv should print what features etc. have been
enabled at compile time. It can print the configure command line, but it
obviously doesn't include autodetected features.
I tried to think of a nicer way than dumping the config.h as text, but
this was still the simplest way.
Do so by using mp_subprocess(). Although this uses completely different
code on Unix too, you shouldn't notice a difference. A less ncie thing
is that this reserves an entire thread while the command is running
(which wastes some memory for stack, at least). But this is probably
still the simplest way, and the fork() trick is apparently not
implementable with posix_subprocess().
This may or may not be useful for client API users.
Fold this API extension into the previous API bump. The previous bump
was only yesterday, so it's ok.
Until now, calling mpv_opengl_cb_uninit_gl() at a "bad moment" could
make the whole thing to explode. The API user was asked to avoid such
situations by calling it only in "good moments". But this was probably a
bit too subtle and could easily be overlooked.
Integrate the approach the qml example uses directly into the
implementation. If the OpenGL context is to be unitialized, forcefully
disable video, and block until this is done.
If a filter exists, but has no metadata, just return success. This
allows the user to distinguish between no metadata available, and filter
not inserted.
