There are multiple reasons to do this. One big reason is the license:
talloc is LGPLv3+, which forces mpv to be licensed as GPLv3+.
Another one is that our talloc copy contains modifications, which makes
it essentially incompatible with upstream talloc (in particular, our
version aborts on out of memory conditions - well, it wasn't my idea).
Updating from upstream is also a bit involved - the talloc source is
not really organized in a way to allow copying it into projects (and
this isn't an intended use-case).
Finally, talloc is kind of big and bloated. The replacement halves the
amount of code - mainly because we didn't use all talloc features. It's
even more extreme if you compare upstream talloc (~4700 lines) and the
new allocator without talloc compat (~900 lines).
The replacement provides all features we need. It also doesn't clash
with talloc. (The talloc compatibility wrapper uses macros to avoid
introducing linker-level symbols which could clash with libtalloc.)
It also tries to lower the overhead (only 4 words opposed to 10 words
in talloc for leaf nodes in release mode). Debugging features like leak
reporting can be enabled at compile time and add somewhat more overhead.
Though I'm not sure whether the overhead reduction was actually
successful: allocations with children need an "extra" header, which adds
plenty of overhead, and it turns out that almost half of all allocations
have children. Maybe the implementation could be simplified and the
extra header removed - even then, overhead would be lower than talloc's.
Currently, debugging features can be entirely deactivated by defining
NDEBUG - I'm not sure if anything defines this directly yet, though.
Unlike in talloc, the leak reporting stuff is thread-safe. (That's also
why it's far less elegant, and requires extra list pointers.)
Comes with a compatibility layer, so no changes to mpv source code
are needed. The idea is that we will pretend to be using talloc for
a while, so that we can revert to our old talloc implementation at
any time for debugging purposes.
Some inspiration was taken from Mesa's ralloc:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/glsl/ralloc.h
This is another talloc replacement, but lacks some features we need
(getting size of an allocation, debugging features, being able to
access children in the dtor).
There's some information in ta/README what will happen next and how the
transition is expected to progress.
Change talloc destructor so that they can never signal failure, and
don't return a status code. This makes our talloc copy even more
incompatible to upstream talloc, but on the other hand this is
preparation for getting rid of talloc entirely.
(The talloc replacement in the next commit won't allow the talloc_free
equivalent to fail, and the destructor return value would be useless.
But I don't want to change any mpv code either; the idea is that the
talloc replacement commit can be reverted for some time in order to
test whether the talloc replacement introduced a regression.)
This only shows any differences when mpv isn't frontmost and is in fullscreen.
Cmd+Tab overlay is still at a higher level as to avoid complete usability fail.
Before this, they were shown on terminal only. Now they use the OSD
mechanism, which shows them on the video window or the terminal,
depending on settings and what's available.
Changing volume when audio is disabled was a feature request (github
issue #215), and was introduced with commit 327a779.
But trying to fix github issue #280 (volume is not correct in no-audio
mode, and if audio is re-enabled, the volume set in no-audio mode isn't
set), I concluded that it's not worth the trouble and the current
implementation is questionable all around. (For example, you can't
change the real volume in no-audio mode, even if the AO is open - this
could happen with gapless audio.) It's hard to get right, and the
current mixer code is already hilariously overcomplicated. (Virtually
all of mixer.c is an amalgamation of various obscure corner cases.)
So just remove this feature again.
Note that "options/volume" and "options/mute" still can be used in
idle mode to adjust the volume used next time, though these properties
can't be used during playback and thus not in audio-only mode.
Querying the volume still "works" in audio-only mode, though it can
return bogus values.
The argument or this change is that --loop should set how often the
file is played, not the number of additional repeats.
Based on pull request 277, with additions to the manpage and removal
of "--loop=0".

The primary effect of this commit is that it fixes playback resume if
libquvi 0.9 and German locale are used, and libkdecore is on the system.
(See github issue #279.)
libquvi uses libproxy to determine system-wide proxy settings. libproxy
in turn loads libkdecore (if present) to determine KDE proxy settings.
libkdecore has a global constructor, which calls setlocale(LC_ALL, ""),
switching the current locale from "C" to what the user's settings. This
breaks some basic C string processing functions. Note that the locale
won't be set on program start, but only when libproxy calls dlopen() on
its config_kde module, which actually causes libkdecore to be loaded and
initialized.
In particular, with German locale, snprintf() would use "," instead of
"." when formatting float values, which in combination with playback
resume, would lead to parse errors the next time mpv was started, which
is how this issue was found.
I'd consider this a bug with libkdecore or at least libproxy. No library
should ever even touch locale: it might break basic expectations on C
string handling functions, might override program settings, and it's not
thread-safe. But this is so nasty and severe, that a quick hack to fix
it hurts less.
See github issue #279 and KDE bug #325902.

previously, mp_ring_read_cb() would allow reading past the end of the
ringbuffer when buffered > available. mp_ring_read() had logic for
splitting the read into two, which I duplicated into mp_ring_read_cb().
Since ordered editions can reference external files, when an ordered
chapter references another ordered edition, we have to go and figure out
what is is referencing as well.
When playing a Matroska file with ordered chapters, it may reference
another file by edition uid. When this edition is also ordered, it may
reference other files. When this occurs, the new segment/edition pair is
added to the list of sources to search for.
To support edition references in matroska chapters, editions need to be
remembered for each chapter and source. To facilitate easier management
of these now-paired uids, a single structure is used.
First, don't try to seek if the result is 0 (i.e. nothing found, or
subtitle event happens to be exactly on spot).
Second, since we never can make sure that we actually seek to the exact
subtitle PTS (seeking "snaps" to video PTS), offset the seek by 10ms.
Since most subtitle events are longer than 10ms, this should work fine.
The OSC will now display cache fill status between the timecodes, but only if it's below 48% to not clutter the interface with erratically changing values.
By default, the displayed value is multiplied by 2 to not confuse users who are unfamillar with the inner workings of the caching system. This can be disabled using the iAmAProgrammer=true setting.

Fixes playback of http://mpg123.org/test/44and22.mp3
Cherry-picked from MPlayer SVN rev. #36461, a patch by
Thomas Orgis, committed by by Reimar Döffinger.
You couldn't jump to the first entry in the playlist, if that entry was
marked as "too short". But this is usually fine, because it doesn't get
into the way of the user. (This feature is meant to allow being able to
jump backwards through the playlist even if a file immediately stops
playback right after initialization, not to prevent playing these files
at all.)
Also, apply the skip logic when wrapping around the playlist when going
backwards. This happens with --loop, because looping pretends the
playlist is infinitely repeated forwards and backwards (as long as the
playlist_prev/next commands are concerned).
Also add some comments.
When for example switching off the video stream, and --force-window is
used, forcefully reconfigure the VO. This will reset the size, and will
clear the window with black.
Needed some effort, because you don't always want to clear the window
on "discontinuity" points like going to a next file: this would
introduce some flicker.
glXGetVisualFromFBConfig() specifies specifies that it can return NULL
if there is no associated X visual. Instead of crashing, let
initialization fail. I'm not sure if this is actually supposed to work
with a fallback visual (passing a NULL visual to vo_x11_config_vo_window
would just do this), but let's play safe for now.
Apparently this can happen when trying to use vo_opengl over a remote
X display.
Output silence to the output buffer during underruns. This removes small
occasional glitches that happen before the AUHAL is actually paused from the
`audio_pause` call.
Fixes#269
Reverts a small change made in commit ed9295c. This is needed, because
otherwise mplayer.c/update_video_attached_pic() thinks it never has to
update the picture after initialization. (Maybe there would be more
elegant ways to handle this, but not without adding extra state.)
Didn't handle VO events, didn't handle OSD message management.
There is probably still some strangeness left. --idle mode was never
made for direct interaction.
