Sometime earlier, "sub-ass-style-override" was renamed to
"sub-ass-override". The option's documentation was updated to support
this, but not the documentation for the hotkey that toggles this option.
This commit updates the keyboard shortcut documentation to fix that.

The original functions come from 24c6f11c8b, which says that these
functions were copied from another project. This other project is GPL
and was written by an unknown author, so there is no hope to relicense
them to LGPL.
Replace the existing functions with code written by Avi Halachmi. He did
not see the old code, but wrote it based on the function signature and
an extended description of what they should do (http://sprunge.us/edia).
Some additional help was provided by me (in particular the function of
the "ok" parameter and how to implement it - not in the original
ASFRecorder code).
Some of the code is hilariously similar, but these are coincidences. The
name of the variable "c" probably "leaked" from me, but "o" is a true
coincidence.
The code was integrated by me - my only change is changing the function
names to the old ones, moving the order of the top-level declarations,
and changing "default_ok" to "url_default_ok", and changing the strings
from char* to char[].
The author of the new code is Avi Halachmi.
This switches back the --demuxer-lavf-probe-info default for HLS from
"no" to "yes".
Apparently the old default caused problems with the FFmpeg MediaCodec
wrapper. I'm not sure whether it's due to the extradata (which would not
make any sense as MediaCodec takes in Annex B formatted h264 data), or
something else. Reportedly, enabling probing fixes it though, so enable
it again.
Add disparaging comment about Google software/APIs here.
All authors of the current code have agreed (as far as this commit
requires).
options.c/options.h will take more effort, because it contains all the
option declarations, and thus is touched extremely often.
m_option.c is technically still GPL, because of commit 2c82d5a1d8
(michael has agreed to LGPL, but only once the core of mpv is LGPL).
The geometry parsing code in m_option.c was originally by someone who
could not be reached. However, it was heavily rewritten anyway, and only
the syntax remains (i.e. not copyright-relevant).
parse_commandline.c contains a change by "adland" (commit 1d0ac71ae8),
who could not be reached - this this specific part is GPL only.
Fortunately, it matters only for DVD (and even then is more like a hack,
but whatever).
There are some other relevant changes, but they have all been reverted,
moved somewhere else, deleted, or replaced.
All authors have agreed.
mpv.exe.manifest probably can't have a copyright header, so it doesn't.
These files don't add license info to the executables. And of course the
executable license is still GPL.
The history goes back to 2001 or so, but everyone involved with still
existing code has agreed.
One person who could not be reached yet (elevengu) has changes in this,
which as far as I can tell were overwritten anyway at a later point.
I call it `mobius` because apparently the form f(x) = (cx+a)/(dx+b) is
called a Möbius transform, which is the algorithm this is based on. In
the extremes it becomes `reinhard` (param=0.0 and `clip` (param=1.0),
smoothly transitioning between the two depending on the parameter.
This is a useful tone mapping algorithm since the tunable mobius
transform allows the user to decide the trade-off between color accuracy
and detail preservation on a continuous scale. The default of 0.3 is
already far more accurate than `reinhard` while also being reasonably
good at preserving highlights, without suffering from the overall
brightness drop and color distortion of `hable`.
For these reasons, make this the new default. Also expand and improve
the documentation for these tone mapping functions.
Unfortunately quite a mess, in particular due to the need to have some
compatibility with the old API. (The old API will be supported only in
short term.)
When the drm video output is used under VT with a terminal multiplexer
like screen, the VT_SETMODE ioctl call will fail since the controlling
terminal is a pseudoterminal instead of a real one, thus the VT switcher
will be unavailable.
The problem is, the wait_events function inside vo_drm.c will test for
this, and will do nothing if the switcher is not active. Normally, this
would not be noticed, however, when you pause a video, or if you're playing
multiple image files, mpv will suddenly start busy waiting on a single
core.
I confirmed this by building mpv with gprof support, in a few seconds,
wait_events got called about 90 million times.
So I added a fallback, when the VT switcher is not availble, just use the
vo_wait_default function. I tested it and it's working well so far.
There's probably no reason to keep this disabled. The -rdynamic (and the
approach we use) is probably a bit scary, but should not break anything.
Just to be sure I'm hard-disabling this on win32 anyway. We know it
can't work there in its current form.
Fixes#4491.
This affects in particular the heuristic that enables byte seeks in some
cases with .ts input. --demuxer-lavf-hacks=no should disable this
behavior now.
List of changes:
1. Rename `signfs` to `scale`, to better match what it actually does
(force --sub-scale to apply to ASS subtitles), and fix the blatantly
wrong documentation (it actually specifically does *not* apply to
signs)
2. Rename `--sub-ass-style-override` to `--sub-ass-override` to help
reduce confusion between it and `--sub-ass-force-style`, as well as
pointing out that it doesn't necessarily actually override styles.
(The new `scale` option, for example, only sets
ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_FONT_SIZE, but not ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_STYLE)
3. Mention that `--sub-ass-override` is generally sort of smart about
only overriding dialog, not signs.
Usually a good idea to do this when encoding to mp4, but it's
commented since usefulness is arguable nowadays.
Equivalent to running qt-faststart tool on the resulting mp4.
Adds a bit of delay at the end of encoding.
In the previous commit, I claimed that this GUID stuff was a libavformat
extension, but that seems to be completely wrong. (LATM might be an
extension of some kind, though.)
I don't know what Microsoft calls this GUID "suffix" though. It's
generally used to wrap wav format tags and video FourCCs as GUIDs.
I guess you could grep Microsoft headers for it to find its name,
or something.
Indeed, FFmpeg found a way to maximize the misery around VfW/AVI-style
muxing. It appears it can mux a number of random codecs by using random
format tags. To make this even more stranger, it has a probably custom
GUID for signaling them, although for unknown reasons this is done only
"sometimes" (judging from FFmpeg's riffenc.c).
Whatever, it's not too hard to support it. Also apparently fix the
incorrect interpretation of extended formats - there's absolutely no
reason to assume they're always PCM. Instead, check for the correct
GUIDs. Also while we're at it, move the channel mask handling also to
codec_tag.c, so all WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE handling is in one place. (With
the normal wav header handling strangely still in demux_mkv.c.)
The case I was looking at (aac_latm muxing) decodes now. While I'm not
entirely sure about its correctness (libavformat has a weird
special-case for SBR), it certainly doesn't try to play it as PCM,
which is much of an improvement.
The extradata mess in the demux_mkv.c A_MS/ACM code path is unfortunate
and ugly, but has less impact than refactoring all the code to make
this specific case nicer.
Did I mention yet that I hate VfW-style mkv muxing?
In a multi GPU scenario, it may be desirable to use different GPUs
for decode and display responsibilities. For example, if a secondary
GPU has better video decoding capabilities.
In such a scenario, we need to initialise a separate context for each
GPU, and use the display context in hwdec_cuda, while passing the
decode context to avcodec.
Once that's done, the actually hand-off between the two GPUs is
transparent to us (It happens during the cuMemcpy2D operation which
copies the decoded frame from a cuda buffer to the OpenGL texture).
In the end, the bulk of the work is around introducing a new
configuration option to specify the decode device.
Add "or URLs" to the default OSD message when mpv is launched without parameters.
Since this works flawlessly with youtube-dl integration, the fact that you can drop URLs directly to the window should be advertised more.
The new API has literally no advantages (other than that we can drop
mp_vt_download_image and other things later), but it's sort-of uniform
with the other hwaccels.
"--videotoolbox-format=no" is not supported with the new API, because it
doesn't "fit in". Probably could be added later again.
The iOS code change is untested (no way to test).
It's not really guaranteed that other components always set this (e.g.
on subtle errors), so check it explicitly. Although I'm not aware of a
failing case.
If --log-file was used in config files, this could be missing due to the
exact timing when the messages are print, and when the options are
applied. Fix this by always dumping the version again when a log file is
opened.
All relevant authors have agreed to the relicensing.
Problem cases:
eca47b1a5edae: someone else gets credited for the "idea" of this change,
but it doesn't seem like it was a patch (otherwise reimar would have
said "patch"). Also, the associated code got essentially removed again
anyway. (The option parsing was rewritten fully.)
ffb529e4eb2a9: anonymous/unknown author, but the code was fully removed
anyway. The struct was removed, and the modern code does explicit
read/write calls.
40789473d215b: author was not contacted, but this code was removed
anyway. The magic number (0x7ffff000) is still in the new code, but I
don't think that is copyright relevant.
c750b8ab2d3c8: the message was entirely removed.
All contributors of the current code have agreed. ao.c requires a
"driver" entry for each audio output - we assume that if someone who
didn't agree to LGPL added a line, it's fine for ao.c to be LGPL
anyway. If the affected audio output is not disabled at compilation
time, the resulting binary will be GPL anyway, and ootherwise the
code is not included.
The audio output code itself was inspired or partially copied from
libao in 7a2eec4b59 (thus why MPlayer's audio code is named libao2).
Just to be sure we got permission from Aaron Holtzman, Jack Moffitt, and
Stan Seibert, who according to libao's SVN history and README are the
initial author. (Something similar was done for libvo, although the
commit relicensing it forgot to mention it.)
242aa6ebd40: anders mostly disagreed with the LGPL relicensing, but we
got permission for this particular commit.
0ef8e555735: nick could not be reached, but the include statement was
removed again anyway.
879e05a7c17: iive agreed to LGPL v3+ only, but this line of code was
removed anyway, so ao_null.c can be LGPL v2.1+.
9dd8f241ac2: patch author could not be reached, but the corresponding
code (old slave mode interface) was completely removed later.
when quitting mpv during the System fullscreen animation cocoa can't
reset some flags properly and won't reset the Dock hiding behaviour
to it's previous state.
Fixes#4400
If vo_opengl is used, and vo_opengl already created the vdpau interop
(for whatever reasons), and then preemption happens, and then you try to
enable hw decoding, it failed. The reason was that preemption recovery
is not run at any point before libavcodec accesses the vdpau device.
The actual impact was that with libmpv + opengl-cb use, hardware
decoding was permanently broken after display mode switching (something
that caused the display to get preempted at least with older drivers).
With mpv CLI, you can for example enable hw decoding during playback,
then disable it, VT switch to console, switch back to X, and try to
enable hw decoding again.
This is mostly because libav* does not deal with preemption, and NVIDIA
driver preemption behavior being horrible garbage. In addition to being
misdesigned API, the preemption callback is not called before you try to
access vdpau API, and then only with _some_ accesses.
In summary, the preemption callback was never called, neither before nor
after libavcodec tried to init the decoder. So we have to get
mp_vdpau_handle_preemption() called before libavcodec accesses it. This
in turn will do a dummy API access which usually triggers the preemption
callback immediately (with NVIDIA's drivers).
In addition, we have to update the AVHWDeviceContext's device. In theory
it could change (in practice it usually seems to use handle "0").
Creating a new device would cause chaos, as we don't have a concept of
switching the device context on the fly. So we simply update it
directly. I'm fairly sure this violates the libav* API, but it's the
best we can do.
Windows, as of the Creators Update, finally has a sane API for giving a
name to a thread that can be used by debuggers. This is similar to
pthread_setname_np on Linux and some Unixes. Expose it in the pthread
wrapper and use it for mpthread_set_name().
