Currently, the activation and deactivation of input handling is done
inside the render() loop, but this does not run when the osc mode is
`never` - which does make sense.
That means that if you are cycling the visibility mode, the input
state will be whatever it was at the time of the mode change. And,
as our modes are ordered `auto` -> `always` -> `never`, the input
state will be enabled when you cycle to `never`.
There are various ways you can imagine fixing this, and in this
change I propose we reset the input state to disabled on a mode
change, and then let render() re-enable input if that's appropriate.
Fixes#7298.
When using --keep-open, and the end of the file is reached, the player's
"pause" property is set to true. Attempting to set it to false reverts
it back to true immediately. That's how it's designed, for better or
worse.
Running "seek -10 ; set pause no" did not work, because the seek is
first queued and pause is unset, but then the decoding functions
determine that EOF is still a thing, and "mpctx->stop_play =
AT_END_OF_FILE;" is set again. handle_keep_open() then sets pause again.
Only then the seek is actually run.
Fix this by not setting stop_play if a seek is queued.
Although a linked list was ideal at first, there are cases where it
sucks, and became increasingly awkward (with the mpv command API
preferring integer indexes to access the list). In future, we probably
want to add more playlist-related functionality, so better change it to
an array now.
An array isn't always ideal either. Since playlist entries are still
separate objects (because in some cases you need a stable "iterator" to
it), but you still need to efficiently get the next/previous playlist
entry, there's a pl_index field, that needs to be maintained. E.g.
adding an entry at the start of the playlist => update the pl_index
field for all other entries. Well, it's not really worth to do something
more complicated to avoid these things.
This commit is probably buggy as shit. It's not like I bothered to test
everything. That's _your_ role.
It's not really great. But I think it's good enough to save someone
who's lost. Most importantly, it should become obvious _what_ the
console expects (input commands), and how to exit it.
Would be nice if we could show some documentation, or give a link to
documentation, but that's out of scope and/or not easy.
I considered implementing the "help" command as builtin command in
command.c. On the other hand, this could not show console.lua specific
help, so I implemented it in console.lua. The ad-hoc command parsing
(that sort-of mirrors mpv input command syntax) for the "help" command
is probably the worst part of this.
It's deprecated. The new solution works almost exactly the same way
(since the still existing internal tick event triggers vsync-jitter
change command), though as far as API usage goes, it's somewhat
questionable. (The comment is meant to discourage anyone trying to copy
the idea for external scripts.)
This affects behavior when using the "del" default key binding.
Sometimes, setting visibility to always did not draw it correctly. This
probably fixes it.
Implemented using one-time idle observer (i.e. setTimeout), to avoid
additional function call(back) every time the event loop enters idle.
The lua mp.flush_key_bindings() is also available, also undocumented.
A minority of users have expressed a dislike of hats, calling them
"cancer [that] don't belong in software" describing the people who add
them as "shitty circlejerks" and "chucklefuck."
While I personally disagree with those opinions, it's probably easier
to let them have it their way. For that reason this adds the option
`greenandgrumpy` to the osc, which allows users to disable the hat.
libass uses integers for PlayResX/Y, so the osd-overlay command also
does. Lua (pre-5.3) does not have an integer type, but the command
interface makes a difference anyway. If you pass a Lua number with a
fractional part to an integer parameter (using mp.command_native()), it
will result in an error and complain about incompatible types.
I think that's fine, but since this behavior extends to
mp.set_osd_ass(), this is a compatibility problem.
Fix this by explicitly coercing the resolution parameters to integer
numbers.
The main reason for this is just to make show the OSC always above
console.lua, instead of a random order.
(And this is also the only reason osc.lua was changed to the new API.
The old API could have been extended, but lets not.)
This tries to avoid the update() call if nothing changed. This brings it
more into line with the old code (the osd-overlay command simply does
not skip the update if nothing changed). I don't know whether this
matters; most likely not. Normally, code should try to avoid redundant
updates on its own, so it's not the job of the command. However, for the
OSC we simply want to reduce the differences.
Lua scripting has an undocumented mp.set_osd_ass() function, which is
used by osc.lua and console.lua. Apparently, 3rd party scripts also use
this. It's probably time to make this a public API.
The Lua implementation just bypassed the libmpv API. To make it usable
by any type of client, turn it into a command, "osd-overlay".
There's already a "overlay-add". Ignore it (although the manpage admits
guiltiness). I don't really want to deal with that old command. Its main
problem is that it uses global IDs, while I'd like to avoid that scripts
mess with each others overlays (whether that is accidentally or
intentionally). Maybe "overlay-add" can eventually be merged into
"osd-overlay", but I'm too lazy to do that now.
Scripting now uses the commands. There is a helper to manage OSD
overlays. The helper is very "thin"; I only want to force script authors
to use the ID allocation, which may help with putting multiple scripts
into a single .lua file without causing conflicts (basically, avoiding
singletons within a script's environment). The old set_osd_ass() is
emulated with the new API.
The JS scripting wrapper also provides a set_osd_ass() function, which
calls internal mpv API. Comment that part (to keep it compiling), but
I'm leaving it to @avih to finish the change.
Lua scripting implements key bindings by defining an input section with
all the bindings in it. Every add_key_binding() call ran a mpv command
to update this section. This caused a lot of spam at debug log levels.
Reduce the spam and more it efficient by batching updates into a single
mpv command when the script becomes inactive. This is pretty simple,
because there's already the concept of idle handlers.
This requires that the script actually goes to sleep, which might not
happen in various extremely bogus corner cases, such as polling the mpv
message queue with active waiting. Just don't do that.
During the 12th month (checked during script initialization), draw a Santa hat
on top of the idle message's logo.
Slightly refactors and optimizes the drawing process as well: reorder original
logo layers and remove redundant holes in them, use a shared line prefix
to clear the style and set start position.

Now that 00af718a made the lua read_options behavior much more similar
to the js behavior, the main difference was that lua does not re-read
the config file at on_update (but it does re-apply its stored content)
while js did re-read it.
Now the js on_update also does not re-read the config file and instead
applies its stored original content.
This is slightly hacky by adding an undocumented optional 4th argument
to read_options which allows overriding the config file content.
Make sure it gets properly reinitialized when needed. This is especially
useful now that the OSC reacts to runtime option changes, which can
change the layout too.
This may call set_property_number() on the margin properties more often
now, but since redundant option changes are ignored now, this shouldn't
have any too bad effects.
Fuck it, just let's just reinit everything.
On a side note, the changelist parameter provided by read_options()
(here "list") is now unused. But it's not hard to provide and might be
useful for other stuff. So don't remove it from the generic
read_options() code.
As described in the manpage changes. This makes more sense than the
previous approach, where options could "unexpectedly" stick. Although
this is still a somewhat arbitrary policy (ask many people and you'd get
a number of different expectations on what should happen), I think that
it reflects what mpv's builtin stuff does.
All the copying is annoying, but let's just hope nobody is stupid enough
to change these properties per video frame or something equally
ridiculous.
This is a bit different than the lua code: on script-opts change it
simply re-applies the conf-file and script-opts to the options object,
and if this results in any changed value at options then on_update is
called with the changelist as argument.
This allows a value to revert back to the conf-file value if the
matching script-opts key had a different value and then got deleted.
It also guarantees to call back whenever the options object is
modified, which the lua code doesn't do (e.g. if the caller changed
a value and the observer changed it back - it won't detect a change).
With special attention to changing osc-visibility. Untested, although
osc-visibility works (it's pretty much equivalent to the key binding, so
there is not much interesting going on).
Somewhat inspired by code posted by github user CogentRedTester.
Fixes: #4513
The way how this modifies and backups/restores user option values is a
bit of a problem for runtime option changing.
Clean this up a little. Now cycling the visibility updates the user
option value, but always to "valid" values (unlike hidetimeout used to
be used). If the user option value is changed externally (enabled by a
later commit), it'll be cleanly overwritten.
I decided to factor this into the user's scale option (instead of
somehow using it as default if the user has not specified it), because
it makes the option handling simpler, and won't break things like
per-screen DPI if the user only wants to scale the console font by a
factor.
mpv has a very weak and very annoying policy that determines whether a
playlist should be used or not. For example, if you play a remote
playlist, you usually don't want it to be able to read local filesystem
entries. (Although for a media player the impact is small I guess.)
It's weak and annoying as in that it does not prevent certain cases
which could be interpreted as bad in some cases, such as allowing
playlists on the local filesystem to reference remote URLs. It probably
barely makes sense, but we just want to exclude some other "definitely
not a good idea" things, all while playlists generally just work, so
whatever.
The policy is:
- from the command line anything is played
- local playlists can reference anything except "unsafe" streams
("unsafe" means special stream inputs like libavfilter graphs)
- remote playlists can reference only remote URLs
- things like "memory://" and archives are "transparent" to this
This commit does... something. It replaces the weird stream flags with a
slightly clearer "origin" value, which is now consequently passed down
and used everywhere. It fixes some deviations from the described policy.
I wanted to force archives to reference only content within them, but
this would probably have been more complicated (or required different
abstractions), and I'm too lazy to figure it out, so archives are now
"transparent" (playlists within archives behave the same outside).
There may be a lot of bugs in this.
This is unfortunately a very noisy commit because:
- every stream open call now needs to pass the origin
- so does every demuxer open call (=> params param. gets mandatory)
- most stream were changed to provide the "origin" value
- the origin value needed to be passed along in a lot of places
- I was too lazy to split the commit

For some inexplicable reason, the OSC runs the expand-text command a
_lot_. This command is logged at the log file default log level, so the
log file can quickly fill up with these messages. It directly violates
the mpv logging policy: per-frame (or similarly common) log messages
should not be enabled by default for the log file.
stats.lua uses the show-text command for some reason (instead of
creating its own OSD layer).
Explicitly reduce the log level for expand-text and some other commands.
Also reduce the log level for commands triggered by mouse movement.
The previous commit also contributed some to reduce log spam.
Fixes: #4771
Traditionally, the OSC used mpv's "tick" event, which was approximately
sent once per video frame. It didn't try to track any other state, and
just updated everything.
This is sort of a problem in many corner cases and non-corner cases. For
example, it would eat CPU in the paused state (probably to some degree
also the mpv core's fault), or would waste power or even throw errors
("event queue overflows") on high FPS video.
Change this to not using the tick event. Instead, react to a number of
property change events. Rate-limit actual redrawing with a timer; the
next update cannot happen sooner than the hardcoded 30ms OSC frame
duration. This has also the effect that multiple successive updates are
(mostly) coalesced.
This means the OSC won't eat your CPU when the player is fucking paused.
(It'll still update if e.g. the cache is growing, though.) There is some
potential for bugs whenever it uses properties that are not explicitly
observed. (In theory we could easily change this to a reactive concept
to avoid such things, but whatever.)
I intend to rewrite this code approximately every 2 months.
Last time, I did this in commit d66eb93e5d (and 065c307e8e and
b2006eeb74). It was intended to remove the roundabout synchronous
thread "ping pong" when observing properties. At first, the original
async. code was replaced with some nice mostly synchronous code. But
then an async. code path had to be added for vo_libmpv, and finally the
sync. code was dropped because it broke in other obscure cases (like the
Objective-C Cocoa backend).
Try again. This time, update properties entirely on the main thread.
Updates get batched out on every playloop iteration. (At first I wanted
it to make it every time the player goes to sleep, but that might starve
API clients if the playloop get saturated.) One nice thing is that
clients only get woken up once all changed events have been sent, which
might reduce overhead.
While this sounds simple, it's not. The main problem is that reading
properties must not block the client API, i.e. no client API locks can
be held while reading the property. Maybe eventually we can avoid this
requirement, but currently it's just a fact. This means we have to
iterate over all clients and then over all properties (of each client),
all while releasing all locks when updating a property. Solve this by
rechecking on each iteration whether the list changed, and if so,
aborting the iteration and redo it "next time".
High risk change, expect bugs such as crashes and missing property
updates.
This is for console.lua (see next commit). The idea is that console.lua
can adjust its offset to the bottom of the window by the height of the
OSC.
If the OSC is not set to permanently visible, export no margins, because
it would look weird to move the console depending on the mouse movement.
Very primitive and dumb, but fulfils its purpose for the next commits.
I chose this specific implementation because it has the lowest footprint
in command.c, without resorting to crazy hacks such as sending messages
between scripts (which would be hard to coordinate especially on
startup).
