Restores behaviour prior to aef2ed5dc1.
That change was apparently unpopular. However, given the amount of
complaining over how hard it is to change the defaults by rebinding every
key, I think the extra option introduced by this commit is justified.
Technically not all behaviour is restored, because now --no-osd-bar will
not instead display the msg text on seek. I think that feature was a
little weird and is now easy enough to remedy with the --osd-on-seek
option.
Instead of duplicating the append code, reimplement it using the
existing code. The difference between -add and -append is that -append
does not take multiple items (thus removing the need for escaping), but
-append can reuse all code for -add by pretending the separator is never
found.
And use it for 2 demuxer options. It could be used for more options
later. (Though the --cache options can not use this, because they use KB
as base unit.)
Add the print callback to all option types (except pseudo option types
which don't represent values). This makes it less confusing for client
API users (no strange properties that can't be read), and also lists the
default properly with --list-options.
Fix the option type for audio formats - they use int, not uint32_t.
Fix some identation cosmetic issues.
There is some craziness here: the function allocates m_config_cache,
which in turn allocates the actual option struct, which is what the
function returns. The user would expect to be able to use talloc_free()
to deallocate everything. Of course this didn't work, because the
returned pointer is not the root parent in the talloc tree.
But with some additional talloc craziness, this can be fixed. We
rearrange the parent pointers such that freeing the option struct will
free m_config_cache first, which uninits the contents in the option
struct, but fortunately not the option struct itself.
This change should simplify API use on the caller side, and reduce
surprises.
mp_read_option_raw() should not print the deprecation warning if the
option is deprecated. This change also means you can't pass an alias
to the function, but all existing uses should be fine.
This is part of trying to get rid of --af-defaults, and the af
resample filter.
It requires a complicated mechanism to set the defaults on the resample
filter for backwards compatibility.
Reasons why you'd want this see manpage additions. Disabled by default,
because it would increase latency of live streams by default. (Or well,
at least it would be another problem when trying getting lower latency.)
This tried to be clever by waiting for a longer time each time the
buffer was underrunning, or shorter if it was getting better. I think
this was pretty weird behavior and makes no sense. If the user really
wants the stream to buffer longer, he/she/it can just pause the player
(the network caches will continue to be filled until they're full).
Every time I actually noticed this code triggering in my own use, I
didn't find it helpful. Apart from that it was pretty hard to test.
Some waiting is needed to avoid that the player just plays the available
data as fast as possible (to compensate for late frames and underrunning
audio). Just use a fixed wait time, which can now be controlled by the
new --cache-pause-wait option.
Remove them from the big MPOpts struct and move them to their sub
structs. In the places where their fields are used, create a private
copy of the structs, instead of accessing the semi-deprecated global
option struct instance (mpv_global.opts) directly.
This actually makes accessing these options finally thread-safe. They
weren't even if they should have for years. (Including some potential
for undefined behavior when e.g. the OSD font was changed at runtime.)
This is mostly transparent. All options get moved around, but most users
of the options just need to access a different struct (changing sd.opts
to a different type changes a lot of uses, for example).
One thing which has to be considered and could cause potential
regressions is that the new option copies must be explicitly updated.
sub_update_opts() takes care of this for example.
Another thing is that writing to the option structs manually won't work,
because the changes won't be propagated to other copies. Apparently the
only affected case is the implementation of the sub-step command, which
tries to change sub_delay. Handle this one explicitly (osd_changed()
doesn't need to be called anymore, because changing the option triggers
UPDATE_OSD, and updates the OSD as a consequence). The way the option
value is propagated is rather hacky, but for now this will do.
--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.
A release has been made, so drop options deprecated for that release.
Also drop some options which have been deprecated a much longer time
before.
Also fix a typo in client-api-changes.rst.
Some old crap which nobody needs and which probably nobody uses.
This relies on a GCC extension: using "## __VA_ARGS__" to remove the
comma from the argument list if the va args are empty. It's supported
by clang, and there's some chance newer standards will introduce a
proper way to do this. (Even if it breaks somewhere, it will be a
problem only for 1 release, since I want to drop the deprecated
properties immediately.)
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.
'help' is a valid value for a lot of mpv options, such as `hwdec`
or `vo` for printing available values, so this change makes the
output of OPT_CHOICE options like `--video-sync=help` more
consistent by not reporting an error about invalid value 'help'.
Previously when using a libmpv instance to play multiple videos,
once --start was set there was no clear way to unset it. You could
use --start=0, but 0 does not always mean the beginning of the file
(especially when using --rebase-start-time=no). Looking up the start
timestamp and passing that in also does not always work, particularly
when the first timestamp is negative (since negative values to --start
have a special meaning).
This commit adds a new "none" value which maps to the internal
REL_TIME_NONE, matching the default value of the play_start option.
Change it from explicit metadata about every hwaccel method to trying to
get it from libavcodec. As shown by add_all_hwdec_methods(), this is a
quite bumpy road, and a bit worse than expected.
This will probably cause a bunch of regressions. In particular I didn't
check all the strange decoder wrappers, which all cause some sort of
special cases each. You're volunteering for beta testing by using this
commit.
One interesting thing is that we completely get rid of mp_hwdec_ctx in
vd_lavc.c, and that HWDEC_* mostly goes away (some filters still use it,
and the VO hwdec interops still have a lot of code to set it up, so it's
not going away completely for now).
Make the VO<->decoder interface capable of supporting multiple hwdec
APIs at once. The main gain is that this simplifies autoprobing a lot.
Before this change, it could happen that the VO loaded the "wrong" hwdec
API, and the decoder was stuck with the choice (breaking hw decoding).
With the change applied, the VO simply loads all available APIs, so
autoprobing trickery is left entirely to the decoder.
In the past, we were quite careful about not accidentally loading the
wrong interop drivers. This was in part to make sure autoprobing works,
but also because libva had this obnoxious bug of dumping garbage to
stderr when using the API. libva was fixed, so this is not a problem
anymore.
The --opengl-hwdec-interop option is changed in various ways (again...),
and renamed to --gpu-hwdec-interop. It does not have much use anymore,
other than debugging. It's notable that the order in the hwdec interop
array ra_hwdec_drivers[] still matters if multiple drivers support the
same image formats, so the option can explicitly force one, if that
should ever be necessary, or more likely, for debugging. One example are
the ra_hwdec_d3d11egl and ra_hwdec_d3d11eglrgb drivers, which both
support d3d11 input.
vo_gpu now always loads the interop lazily by default, but when it does,
it loads them all. vo_opengl_cb now always loads them when the GL
context handle is initialized. I don't expect that this causes any
problems.
It's now possible to do things like changing between vdpau and nvdec
decoding at runtime.
This is also preparation for cleaning up vd_lavc.c hwdec autoprobing.
It's another reason why hwdec_devices_request_all() does not take a
hwdec type anymore.
These couldn't be relicensed, and won't survive the LGPL transition. The
other existing filters are mostly LGPL (except libaf glue code).
This remove the deprecated pan option. I guess it could be restored by
inserting a libavfilter filter (if there's one), but for now let it be
gone.
This temporarily breaks volume control (and things related to it, like
replaygain).
The internal stereo3d filter was removed due to being GPL only, and due
to being a mess that somehow used libavfilter's filter. Without this
filter, it's hard to remove our internal stereo3d image attribute, so
even using libavfilter's stereo3d filter would not work too well (unless
someone fixes it and makes it able to use AVFrame metadata, which we
then could mirror in mp_image).
This was never well thought-through anyway, so just drop it. I think
some "downsampling" support would still make sense, maybe that can be
readded later.
Like the manual says, this is technically undefined behaviour. See:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ff476085.aspx
In particular, MSDN says texture arrays created with the BIND_DECODER
flag cannot be used with CreateShaderResourceView, which means they
can't be sampled through SRVs like normal Direct3D textures. However,
some programs (Google Chrome included) do this anyway for performance
and power-usage reasons, and it appears to work with most drivers.
Older AMD drivers had a "bug" with zero-copy decoding, but this appears
to have been fixed. See #3255, #3464 and http://crbug.com/623029.
This is a new RA/vo_gpu backend that uses Direct3D 11. The GLSL
generated by vo_gpu is cross-compiled to HLSL with SPIRV-Cross.
What works:
- All of mpv's internal shaders should work, including compute shaders.
- Some external shaders have been tested and work, including RAVU and
adaptive-sharpen.
- Non-dumb mode works, even on very old hardware. Most features work at
feature level 9_3 and all features work at feature level 10_0. Some
features also work at feature level 9_1 and 9_2, but without high-bit-
depth FBOs, it's not very useful. (Hardware this old is probably not
fast enough for advanced features anyway.)
Note: This is more compatible than ANGLE, which requires 9_3 to work
at all (GLES 2.0,) and 10_1 for non-dumb-mode (GLES 3.0.)
- Hardware decoding with D3D11VA, including decoding of 10-bit formats
without truncation to 8-bit.
What doesn't work / can be improved:
- PBO upload and direct rendering does not work yet. Direct rendering
requires persistent-mapped PBOs because the decoder needs to be able
to read data from images that have already been decoded and uploaded.
Unfortunately, it seems like persistent-mapped PBOs are fundamentally
incompatible with D3D11, which requires all resources to use driver-
managed memory and requires memory to be unmapped (and hence pointers
to be invalidated) when a resource is used in a draw or copy
operation.
However it might be possible to use D3D11's limited multithreading
capabilities to emulate some features of PBOs, like asynchronous
texture uploading.
- The blit() and clear() operations don't have equivalents in the D3D11
API that handle all cases, so in most cases, they have to be emulated
with a shader. This is currently done inside ra_d3d11, but ideally it
would be done in generic code, so it can take advantage of mpv's
shader generation utilities.
- SPIRV-Cross is used through a NIH C-compatible wrapper library, since
it does not expose a C interface itself.
The library is available here: https://github.com/rossy/crossc
- The D3D11 context could be made to support more modern DXGI features
in future. For example, it should be possible to add support for
high-bit-depth and HDR output with DXGI 1.5/1.6.
Somewhat useful for debugging. Unfortunately libass (or something else)
strips leading whitespace, making it look slightly more ugly than
necessary. Still an improvement.
See manpage additions.
(In ffmpeg-mpv and Libav, this is still called "cuvid". Libav won't work
yet, because it has no frame params support yet, but this could get
fixed soon.)
This commit allows to use the AV_PIX_FMT_DRM_PRIME newly introduced
format in ffmpeg that allows decoders to provide an AVDRMFrameDescriptor
struct.
That struct holds dmabuf fds and information allowing zerocopy rendering
using KMS / DRM Atomic.
This has been tested on RockChip ROCK64 device.
Mostly an obscure option for testing. But --videotoolbox-format can be
deprecated, as it becomes redundant.
We rely on the libavutil hwcontext implementation to reject invalid
pixfmts, or not to blow up if they are incompatible.

In addition to the built-in nvidia compiler, we now also support a
backend based on libshaderc. shaderc is sort of like glslang except it
has a C API and is available as a dynamic library.
The generated SPIR-V is now cached alongside the VkPipeline in the
cached_program. We use a special cache header to ensure validity of this
cache before passing it blindly to the vulkan implementation, since
passing invalid SPIR-V can cause all sorts of nasty things. It's also
designed to self-invalidate if the compiler gets better, by offering a
catch-all `int compiler_version` that implementations can use as a cache
invalidation marker.
This time based on ra/vo_gpu. 2017 is the year of the vulkan desktop!
Current problems / limitations / improvement opportunities:
1. The swapchain/flipping code violates the vulkan spec, by assuming
that the presentation queue will be bounded (in cases where rendering
is significantly faster than vsync). But apparently, there's simply
no better way to do this right now, to the point where even the
stupid cube.c examples from LunarG etc. do it wrong.
(cf. https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs/issues/370)
2. The memory allocator could be improved. (This is a universal
constant)
3. Could explore using push descriptors instead of descriptor sets,
especially since we expect to switch descriptors semi-often for some
passes (like interpolation). Probably won't make a difference, but
the synchronization overhead might be a factor. Who knows.
4. Parallelism across frames / async transfer is not well-defined, we
either need to use a better semaphore / command buffer strategy or a
resource pooling layer to safely handle cross-frame parallelism.
(That said, I gave resource pooling a try and was not happy with the
result at all - so I'm still exploring the semaphore strategy)
5. We aggressively use pipeline barriers where events would offer a much
more fine-grained synchronization mechanism. As a result of this, we
might be suffering from GPU bubbles due to too-short dependencies on
objects. (That said, I'm also exploring the use of semaphores as a an
ordering tactic which would allow cross-frame time slicing in theory)
Some minor changes to the vo_gpu and infrastructure, but nothing
consequential.
NOTE: For safety, all use of asynchronous commands / multiple command
pools is currently disabled completely. There are some left-over relics
of this in the code (e.g. the distinction between dev_poll and
pool_poll), but that is kept in place mostly because this will be
re-extended in the future (vulkan rev 2).
The queue count is also currently capped to 1, because of the lack of
cross-frame semaphores means we need the implicit synchronization from
the same-queue semantics to guarantee a correct result.
