Just another corner-caseish potential issue. Unlike unreffing the image
manually, unref_current_image() also takes care of properly unmapping
hwdec frames. (The corner-case part of this is that it's probably never
mapped at this point, but it's apparently not entirely guaranteed.)
The " || vimg->mpi" part virtually never seems to trigger, but on the
other hand could possibly create unintended corner cases (for example by
trying to upload a NULL image, which would then be marked as an error
and render a blue screen).
I guess it's a leftover from over times, where a NULL image meant
"redraw the current frame". This is now handled by actually passing
along the current frame.
Nvidia's "NvDecode" API (up until recently called "cuvid" is a cross
platform, but nvidia proprietary API that exposes their hardware
video decoding capabilities. It is analogous to their DXVA or VDPAU
support on Windows or Linux but without using platform specific API
calls.
As a rule, you'd rather use DXVA or VDPAU as these are more mature
and well supported APIs, but on Linux, VDPAU is falling behind the
hardware capabilities, and there's no sign that nvidia are making
the investments to update it.
Most concretely, this means that there is no VP8/9 or HEVC Main10
support in VDPAU. On the other hand, NvDecode does export vp8/9 and
partial support for HEVC Main10 (more on that below).
ffmpeg already has support in the form of the "cuvid" family of
decoders. Due to the design of the API, it is best exposed as a full
decoder rather than an hwaccel. As such, there are decoders like
h264_cuvid, hevc_cuvid, etc.
These decoders support two output paths today - in both cases, NV12
frames are returned, either in CUDA device memory or regular system
memory.
In the case of the system memory path, the decoders can be used
as-is in mpv today with a command line like:
mpv --vd=lavc:h264_cuvid foobar.mp4
Doing this will take advantage of hardware decoding, but the cost
of the memcpy to system memory adds up, especially for high
resolution video (4K etc).
To avoid that, we need an hwdec that takes advantage of CUDA's
OpenGL interop to copy from device memory into OpenGL textures.
That is what this change implements.
The process is relatively simple as only basic device context
aquisition needs to be done by us - the CUDA buffer pool is managed
by the decoder - thankfully.
The hwdec looks a bit like the vdpau interop one - the hwdec
maintains a single set of plane textures and each output frame
is repeatedly mapped into these textures to pass on.
The frames are always in NV12 format, at least until 10bit output
supports emerges.
The only slightly interesting part of the copying process is that
CUDA works by associating PBOs, so we need to define these for
each of the textures.
TODO Items:
* I need to add a download_image function for screenshots. This
would do the same copy to system memory that the decoder's
system memory output does.
* There are items to investigate on the ffmpeg side. There appears
to be a problem with timestamps for some content.
Final note: I mentioned HEVC Main10. While there is no 10bit output
support, NvDecode can return dithered 8bit NV12 so you can take
advantage of the hardware acceleration.
This particular mode requires compiling ffmpeg with a modified
header (or possibly the CUDA 8 RC) and is not upstream in ffmpeg
yet.
Usage:
You will need to specify vo=opengl and hwdec=cuda.
Note that hwdec=auto will probably not work as it will try to use
vdpau first.
mpv --hwdec=cuda --vo=opengl foobar.mp4
If you want to use filters that require frames in system memory,
just use the decoder directly without the hwdec, as documented
above.
This is a bug fix, and the text alignment functionality probably got
lost sometime along the way.
For ASS subtitles, this could have unintended consequences, so it's hard
to get right - thus it's not applied to ASS subtitles.
For other text subtitles, this should be fine, though. It still works on
ASS subtitles as promised by the manpage if --no-sub-ass is used.
The first one is printed even if the user disabled video (or there's no
video), so just remove it. The second one uses deprecated sub-option
syntax, so remove that as well.
This time it's emulation that's supposed to work (not just dummied out).
Unlike the previous emulation, no mpv code has to be disabled, and
everything should work (albeit possibly a bit slowly). On the other
hand, it's not possible to implement this kind of emulation without
compiler support. We use GNU statement expressions and __typeof__ in
this case.
This code is inactive if stdatomic.h is available.
Don't access MPOpts directly, and always use the new m_config.h
functions for accessing them in a thread-safe way.
The goal is eventually removing the mpv_global.opts field, and the
demuxer/stream-layer specific hack that copies MPOpts to deal with
thread-safety issues.
This moves around a lot of options. For one, we often change the
physical storage location of options to make them more localized,
but these changes are not user-visible (or should not be). For
shared options on the other hand it's better to do messy direct
access, which is worrying as in that somehow renaming an option
or changing its type would break code reading them manually,
without causing a compilation error.
Instead of copying the options around... just don't. video.c now has
full control over when options are updated. (It still gets notified from
outside, but it decides when the updated options are copied: when
m_config_cache_update() is called.) So there's no need for tricky
stuff, and it can be simplified a bit.
Also change lcms.c. We could do it like video.c, and get the options
from the global config store. But it seems simpler to just provide a
pointer to an option struct, which is arbitrarily mutated from the
outside (from the perspective of lcms.c).
Setting --icc-profile had no effect, until a vo_opengl option was
changed at runtime. We must initialize the renderer for the initial
option state too.
For some reason, the ICC profile gets loaded twice. The next commit
happens to fix this.
It has to copy each option, whether it's deprecated or not. This would
print a warning on every deprecated sub-option, even if it's not used.
Yep, this is very stupid.
At least m_config_get_co() gets actually slightly cleaner, because it
separates the search and the deprecation handling.
And introduce a global option which does this. Or more precisely, this
deprecates the global wasapi and coreaudio options, and adds a new one
that merges their functionality. (Due to the way the sub-option
deprecation mechanism works, this is simpler.)
I decided that it's too much work to convert all the VO/AOs to the new
option system manually at once. So here's a shitty hack instead, which
achieves almost the same thing. (The only user-visible difference is
that e.g. --vo=name:help will list the sub-options normally, instead of
showing them as deprecation placeholders. Also, the sub-option parser
will verify each option normally, instead of deferring to the global
option parser.)
Another advantage is that once we drop the deprecated options,
converting the remaining things will be easier, because we obviously
don't need to add the compatibility hacks.
Using this mechanism is separate in the next commit to keep the diff
noise down.
Instead of requiring each VO or AO to manually add members to MPOpts and
the global option table, make it possible to register them automatically
via vo_driver/ao_driver.global_opts members. This avoids modifying
options.c/options.h every time, including having to duplicate the exact
ifdeffery used to enable a driver.
Instead of adding a lock_frame to the list when mp_dispatch_lock() is
called, just set a simple flag. This uses the fact that the lock is not
recursive, and can happen once per mp_dispatch_queue_process(). It
avoids the dynamic allocation, and makes error checking slightly
stricter.
Again, this is actually redundant and exists only for error-checking.
It'd actually need only a counter, because the actual locking is done by
"parking" the target thread in mp_dispatch_queue_process() and then
setting queue->idling=false. Only when mp_dispatch_unlock() sets it to
true again other work can proceed again. Document this too.
A deadlock bug was reported with the following test program:
mpv_handle *mpv = mpv_create();
mpv_set_option_string(mpv, "ytdl", "yes");
mpv_initialize(mpv);
mpv_terminate_destroy(mpv);
The cause of this is loading the ytdl.lua script, which triggers a
certain code path that calls mp_dispatch_queue_process() recursively. It
does so to wait until the script is loaded, and we want to keep that.
Reentrancy was not supported by mp_dispatch, which leads to the
deadlock. Rewrite the locking so that it does. We mainly get rid of the
"exclusive_lock" mutex. Instead we use the existing lock/condition
variable to wait until we can grab a logical lock.
Note that the lock_frame business can be replaced with a simple counter.
Instead of checking the lock_frame address, it'd simply increment and
store the counter when entering mp_dispatch_queue_process(), and then
compare the counter to decide whether or not to wait. But I think the
additional error checking done by the lock_frame list is valuable.
Fixes#3489.
Why do these API calls even still exist? I don't know, and maybe they
don't make any sense anymore. But whether they should be removed or not
is not a decision I want to make now. I want to get rid of
mp_dispatch_suspend/resume(), though. So implement the client APIs
slightly differently.
Whitelisting supported codecs is (probably) still better than just
allowing everything, given the weird FFmpeg API. I'm also assuming
Libav doesn't even have the codec ID, but I didn't check.
Also add a --teletext-page option, since otherwise it decodes every
teletext page and shows them in succession.
And yes, we can't use av_opt_set_int() - instead we have to set it as
string. Because FFmpeg's option system is terrible.
This affects the "cycle" command. If we switched to the next track, and
it failed to initialize, we just deselected everything.
Change it so that if initialization fails early (typically decoder
selection), we try to continue with the track after that. (Even if
nothing can be selected, the loop will terminate when trying to select
nothing.
Fixes#3446.
This was mistakenly added. It was removed from the vo_opengl_hq defaults
at an earlier time, but the documentation was not updated, which is why
it made it back into the profile.
Fixes#3485.
These never made any sense. They checked the --vo/--ao option, and
applied the profile corresponding to the first entry. So the only way to
get any use of those was to use the --ao or --vo option explicitly. You
can get the same functionality by making a manual profile, making these
force the ao/vo, and then using --profile on command line instead of
--vo/--ao.
This works by first parsing a config file into the default profile, and
applying it once parsing the whole file is finished.
This won't work across config files (not even if you include other
config files via "include=file.conf").
Apparently this was supposed to be handled - but badly at best. Make
unset values always have the value "" instead of NULL to avoid
special-cases.
In particular, this fixes passing NULL to a %s format specifier to
printf in show_profile(). Glibc prints this as "(null)", but it's
undefined behavior, and other libcs can crash.
On a VOCTRL_UPDATE_PLAYBACK_STATE store the state, and use it to
initialize the next time the task list becomes available.
This actually fixes#3482. Revert commit f2e25e9e because it's not
needed anymore.
With the recent vo_opengl changes it doesn't do anything anymore.
I don't think a deprecation period is necessary, because the command
was always marked as experimental.
With the conversion from sub-options to global options, this becomes
useless. This change also comes slightly too soon, because not all VOs
have been changed yet.
vo_opengl sub-option were always rather annoying to handle. It seems
better to make them global options instead. This is simpler and easier
to use. The only disadvantage we are aware of is that it's not clear
that many/all of these new global options work with vo_opengl only.
--vo=opengl-hq is also deprecated.
There is extensive compatibility with the old behavior. One exception is
that --vo-defaults will not apply to opengl-hq (though with opengl it
still works). vo-cmdline is also dysfunctional and will be removed in a
following commit.
These changes also affect opengl-cb.
The update mechanism is still rather inefficient: it requires syncing
with the VO after each option change, rather than batching updates.
There's also no granularity (video.c just updates "everything", and if
auto-ICC profiles are enabled, vo_opengl.c will fetch them on each
update).
Most of the manpage changes were done by Niklas Haas <git@haasn.xyz>.
