This is still rather basic.
run_reconfig() and run_control() update the options because it's needed
for panscan (and other video scaling options), and fullscreen, border,
ontop updates. In the old model, these options could be accessed only
while both playback thread and VO threads were locked (i.e. during
synchronous calls like vo_control()), so this should be sufficient in
order not to miss any updates. In the future, a more fine-grained update
mechanism could be added to handle these updates "exactly".
x11_common.c contains an evil hack, as I see no reasonable way to handle
this properly. The VO thread can't "lock" the main thread, so this is
not simple.
The way option runtime changes are handled is pretty bad in the current
codebase. There's a big option struct (MPOpts), which contains almost
everything, and for which no synchronization mechanism exists. This was
handled by either making some options read-only after initialization,
duplicating the option struct, using sub-options (in the VO), and so on.
Introduce a mechanism that creates a copy of the global options (or
parts of it), and provides a well-defined way to update them in a
thread-safe way.
Most code can remain the same, just that all the component glue code has
to explicitly make use of it first.
There is still lots of room for improvement. For example, the update
mechanism could be better.
If the win32 taskbar progress update is sent before the VO window is
created, then w32_common.c will ignore it because the actual taskbar
object was not created yet. (At least this is what I suspect happens.
The window is already created at this point, but not mapped.)
Hopefully fix this is fixed by creating until after the window is
created, i.e. the VO has been configured at least once.
Untested (who wants to boot into Windows just to wait until it has
applied all of its stupid updates).
Also not explicit is whether update_vo_playback_state() will actually be
called soon enough in all cases. It probably is.
Probably fixes#3482.
Reduce accesses to the renderer opts in vo_opengl.c, and instead add
accessors for them to video.c.
I suppose gamma and maybe icc-auto could be moved to vo_opengl.c
options. Also, the output colorspace could probably be adjusted to what
is really used, not just the options (although it's possible that this
commit changes this, due to video.c mutating its own copy of the options
according to actual renderer capapbilities).
But don't deal with this now.
Normally I'd prefer a bunch of smaller functions with fewer parameters
over a single function with a lot of parameters. But future changes will
require messing with the parameters in a slightly more complex way, so a
combined function will be needed anyway. The now-unused "global"
parameter is required for later as well.
iconv distinguishes between euc-kr and cp949, while libguess
and libuchardet doesn't (only returns euc-kr). EILSEQ occurs
when the input encoding of iconv is set to euc-kr and if the subs
contain letters not included in euc-kr. Since cp949 is a extension
of euc-kr, choose cp949 instead.

And replace the sort-of duplicated explanations.
(It's a bit funny to use weblinks to the generated web version of itself
instead of proper RST links, but I think I don't care.)
The --cache option and cache property conflict, so one of them has to be
renamed. The option is probably used frequently, so initiate
deprecation/rename of the property.
Deprecated in favor of user-shaders, which are functionally equivalent
but superior. (Except in the case of scaler-shader, which has no direct
replacement, but it turned out to be a very unpopular feature either way
- most custom scalers don't fit into the mpv kernel infrastructure and
are therefore implemented as user shaders either way)

Create the core thread right in mpv_create(), and reduce what
mpv_initialize() does further. This is simpler, and allows the API user
to do more before calling mpv_initialize(). The latter is not the real
goal, rather we'd like mpv_intialize() reduced to do almost nothing. It
still does a lot, but nothing truly special anymore that is absolutely
required for basic mpv workings.
One thing we want the user to be able to do is changing properties
before mpv_initialize() to reduce the special status of
mpv_set_option().
Make some existing properties behave more like options. This mostly
means they don't deny access if the associated component is not active,
but redirects to the option.
One kind of fishy change is that we apply --brightness etc. only if
they're not set to the default value. This won't necessarily work with
--vo=xv, but affects only cases where 1. the Xv adapter has been changed
to non-defaults, and 2. the user tries to reset them with mpv by passing
e.g. --brightness=0. We don't care about Xv, and the noted use-case is
dumb, so this change is acceptable.
These conflict with options of the same name, and prevent a "full"
unification. Not addressed is the "cache" property, and possibly a few
properties that behave differently from their equivalent options.
Now options are accessible through the property list as well, which
unifies them to a degree.
Not all options support runtime changes (meaning affected components
need to be restarted for the options to take effects). Remove from the
manpage those properties which are cleanly mapped to options anyway.
From the user-perspective they're just options available through the
property interface.
E.g. --vf=scale=no-arnd didn't work, because it didn't recognize no-arnd
as flag option.
The top-level command line parser is not affected by this, because it
uses the result of m_config_option_requires_param() differently and
assumes unknown parameters do not necessarily require a parameter. (The
suboption parser can't do this.)
Positional parameters cause problems because they can be ambiguous with
flag options. If a flag option is removed or turned into a non-flag
option, it'll usually be interpreted as value for the first sub-option
(as positional parameter), resulting in very confusing error messages.
This changes it into a simple "option not found" error.
I don't expect that anyone really used positional parameters with --vo
or --ao. Although the docs for --ao=pulse seem to encourage positional
parameters for the host/sink options, which means it could possibly
annoy some PulseAudio users.
--vf and --af are still mostly used with positional parameters, so this
must be a configurable option in the option parser.
seek_fn is supposed to return the new file offset, or a negative error
code. Our code doesn't use the offset, and only wants to know if any
errors happened. The int cast is completely broken and might treat a
successful seek as failed depending on whether the sign bit will be set.
Instead, add a hacky OPT_ASPECT option type, which only exists to accept
a "no" parameter, which in combination with the "--no-..." handling code
makes --no-video-aspect work again.
We can also remove the code in m_config.c, which only existed to make
"--no-aspect" (a deprecated alias) to work.
This is a really old weird MPlayer feature. While the MPlayer requires
you to use the sub-option syntax in these cases, mpv "flattens" them to
normal options. The still-supported alternate sub-option syntax remains
a weird artifact that hopefully nobody uses.
For example you can do "-sub-text font=Foo:color=0.5" instead of using
"--sub-text-font=Foo --sub-text-color=0.5". For --sub-text this is an
accidental feature, but it used to be documented for
--demuxer-rawaudio and some others.
This should just be removed, but for now only print a warning to preempt
complaints from weird users wanting this feature back.
The client API can do this (and there are apparently some libmpv using
projects which rely on this). But it's just unnecessary bloat as it
requires a separate code path from the option parser. It would be better
to remove this code. Formally deprecate it, including API bump and
warning in the API changes file to make it really clear.
OPT_ALIAS redirects the options at a higher level, instead of
introducing "duplicate" options with different name but same backing
storage. This uses the OPT_REPLACED mechanisms - only the deprecation
warning had to be made conditional. Note that e.g. --no-video still
works, because the "--no-..." redirection and OPT_ALIAS are orthogonal.
The deprecated --sub -> --sub-file alias had to be dropped, because it
essentially conflicts with --no-sub. If anyone complains, this could
probably still be undone by letting m_config_find_negation_opt do a
special mapping for --no-sub. (Which would be dumb, but simple and
effective.)
Instead of adding "no-"-prefixed aliases to the internal option list,
which will act like normal options, do it in the parsing stage. This
turns out to be simpler (and cheaper), and avoids adding aliased
options.
This is basically dead code, and even the commit that added this code 4
years ago said that this should be for debugging only.
(Though it is possible that the clamp callback was used for something
else, and then unused again. Also, some of the clamping code remains and
is used for internal checking, e.g. clamp_double().)
Before this commit, all VOs had to toggle the option flag themselves,
now command.c does it.
I can't really comprehend why it required every VO to do this manually.
Maybe it was for rejecting the property/option change if the VO didn't
support a specific capability. But then it could have checked the VOCTRL
result. In any case, I don't care, and successfully changing the
property without doing anything (With some VOs) is fine too. Many things
work this way now, and it's simpler overall.
This change will be useful for cleaning up VO option handling.
Just a minor refactor along the planned option change. This commit will
make it easier to update (i.e. copy) the VO options without copying
_all_ options. For now, behavior should be equivalent, though.
(The VO options were put into a separate struct quite early - when all
global variables were removed from the source code. It wasn't clear
whether the separate struct would have any actual purpose, but it seems
it will now. Awesome, huh.)
More appropriate. Originally it really was for automatically added
options, but now it even needed some stupid comments to indicate that
it was used for simply hiding options.
It's actually redundant with whether m_option_type.free is set. Some
option types were flagged inconsistently. Its only use was for running
an additional sanity check without any real functionality.
Some files not only use rounded timestamps, but they also do it
incorrectly. They may jitter between up to 4 specific frame durations.
In this case, I found a file that mostly used 41ms and 42ms, but also
had 40ms and 43ms outliers (often but not always following each other).
This breaks the assumption of the framerate estimation code that the
frame duration can deviate up to 1ms. If it jitters around 4 possible
frame durations, the maximum deviation is 3ms. Increase it accordingly.
The change might make playback of "true VFR" video via display-sync mode
worse, but it's not like it was particularly good in the first place.
Also, the check whether to usen the container FPS needs to be stricter.
In the worst case, num_dur is 1, which doesn't really indicate any
evidence that the framerate is correct. Only if there are "enough"
frames the deviation check will become meaningful. 16 is an arbitrary
value that has been designated "enough" by myself.
Also otuput the frame duration values for --dump-stats.
It seems like many GL implementations (including Mesa) choke on this,
while others are fine. We still think that this use of the GL API is
allowed by the standard (at least in the Mesa case), so to reduce
confusion, explicitly check the "controversial" calls, and use an
appropriate error message.
Like it's done for audio and video. Just to be uniform.
I'm sorry for deleting the anti-ffmpeg vitriol. It's still all true, but
since we decided to always set the timebase, the crappiness is isolated
to FFmpeg internals.
These are different AVCodecContext fields. pkt_timebase is the correct
one for identifying the unit of packet/frame timestamps when decoding,
while time_base is for encoding. Some decoders also overwrite the
time_base field with some unrelated codec metadata.
pkt_timebase does not exist in Libav, so an #if is required.
Normally, OSD can be disabled with --osd-level=0. But this also disables
terminal OSD, and some users want _only_ the terminal OSD. Add
--video-osd=no, which essentially disables the video OSD.
Ideally, it should probably be possible to control terminal and video
OSD levels independently, but that would require separate OSD timers
(and other state) for both components, so don't do it. But because the
current situation isn't too ideal, add a threat to the manpage that
might be changed in the future.
Fixes#3387.
