I suppose it could lead to subtle changes in behavior in presence of
realvideo files that change aspect radio. With the only sample I had
available, the behavior actually improved (azumi.mkv from the MPlayer
samples FTP; when starting playback in the middle it used the wrong
aspect ratio).
Appears to work, so we can drop some code. For some really odd reason,
the descrambling done on the timestamp requires millisecond units (due
to the "algorithm", not the libavcodec API).
Fixes vp9 missing timestamps. This requires a brand new libavcodec (the
patch for this was just applied to FFmpeg git master).
The timestamp mangling is applied to VP9 only. It'd probably work with
other codecs, but it's not needed. It could break in various ways, so
it has to be explicitly checked for every enabled codec.
Makes it somewhat more uniform, and breaks up the awfully deep nesting.
This implicitly changes multiple small details, rather than only moving
code around. In particular, this computes the packet fields first and
parses them afterwards, which is needed for the next commit.
Currently, audio packets are always filtered as a whole. Since demux_raw
output a 1 second long packet, this could lead to large delays when
applying softvol volume. It could be fixed by splitting the frames the
decoder outputs before filtering them (like the old filter code used
to), but since this didn't cause any other problems yet, I'm going with
the simpler fix.
Fixes#1558.
The only reason why cdda:// goes through this wrapper-demuxer is so that
we add chapters to it. Most things related to seeking apply only to
DVD/BD, and in fact broke CDDA sekkability.
Fixes#1555.
Might fix behavior with mkv files that use ordered chapters and have
cover art tags. In my opinion, this should actually have worked (because
cover art pseudo-tracks are strictly appended), but I don't have a
sample file to test at hand.
If a file is unseekable (consider e.g. a http server without resume
functionality), but the stream cache is active, the player will enable
seeking anyway. Until know, client API user couldn't know that this
happens, and it has implications on how well seeking will work. So add a
property which exports whether this situation applies.
Fixes#1522.
Repurpose demuxer->filetype for this. It used to be used to print a
human readable format description; change it to a symbolic format name
and export it as property.
Unfortunately, libavformat has its own weird conventions, which are
reflected through the new property, e.g. the .mp4 case mentioned in the
manpage.
Fixes#1504.
Pass through the seek flags to the stream layer. The STREAM_CTRL
semantics become a bit awkward, but that's still the least awkward
part about optical disc media.
Make demux_disc.c request relative seeks. Now the player will use
relative seeks if the user sends relative seek commands, and the
demuxer announces it wants these by setting rel_seeks to true. This
change probably changes seek behavior for dvd, dvdnav, bluray, cdda,
and possibly makes seeking useless if the demuxer-cache is set to
a high value.
Will be used in the next commit. (Split to make reverting the next
commit easier.)
Normally the player doesn't read from unselected streams, so this should
be a no-op. But unfortunately, some broken files can severely confuse
the player, and assign the same demuxer stream to multiple front-end
tracks. Then selecting one of the tracks would deselect the other track,
with the end result that the demuxer stream for the selected track is
deselected. This could happen with mkv files that use the same track
number (which is of course broken). timeline_set_part() sets the tracks
using demuxer_stream_by_demuxer_id(), using the broken non-unique IDs.
The observable effect was that the player never quit, because
demux_read_packet_async() told the caller to wait some longer for new
packets. Fix by returning EOF instead.
Fixes#1481.
Reading IDs must be checked too. This was basically forgotten in commit
f3a978cd. Also set the *length parameter for ebml_parse_length() in some
error cases, which _really_ should happen.
Fixes#1461.
Apparently, originally this code was meant to be able to read past the
buffer somewhat, which is why the buffer allocation was padded by 8
byte. This is unclean and confuses valgrind. This probably could have
crashed with certain invalid files too.
Also revert the change added with 10a2f69; it should be not needed
anymore.
The VP9 codec parser has a bug: it doesn't set the data/size pointers
passed to it. As I understand, it must always do this, and in fact, if
it doesn't some libavcodec generic code would be in trouble too.
This helps with #1448, but is not the full fix for it. The codec parser
must be fixed in libavcodec itself.
Removes an annoying "No video PTS! Making something up." warning.
Mark it as keyframe, which is needed to prevent strange behavior with
PNG. Also, don't leak the picture data.
For some codecs, we need to invoke a codec parser (because libavcodec
will run into trouble otherwise). This was done based on the Matroska
codec field.
But this ignores handling of vfw-muxed files, which use a pseudo-codec
to signal presence of vfw structures, which we must unmangle to get the
real codec. Handle this by rearranging the code.
This fixes at least mp3-in-mkv for vfw-muxed files; typically old files.
This message can happen a lot for mkv files which index clusters in the
seekhead (which is also broken non-sense, but that's a different story).
Also remove a duplicate define from matroska.h.
There's no reason why parts of this demuxer would be in a separate
source file. The existence of this code is already somewhat questionable
anyway, so it may as well be dumped into a single file.
Even stranger that demux.c included mf.h for no reason (it was an
artifact from 2002 when the architecture was uncleaner).
The code could as well be in demux.c, but it's better to avoid
accidental clashes with demux_lavf.c.
FFmpeg provides no way yet to map a mime type to a codec, so do it
manually. (It _can_ map a mime type to an "input format", but not a
codec.)
Fixes#1374.
These actually are harmless. Even if the data the reader is working on
is essentially random, it's treated like untrusted input data, so there
should be no harm.
But it upsets tools like valgrind.
Probably fixes#1329.
The most awesome codec, not.
The actual code for svq3 is actually just the part that checks for
MKV_V_QUICKTIME (no other QT-muxed codecs are supported). The rest is
minor refactoring, that actually improves the code in general.
This is just enough to support the 2 svq3-in-mkv sample files I have.
This message was added in commit a0acb6ea. But it showed up in all sorts
of inappropriate contexts, such as when opening m3u from an unseekable
http URL, or playing DVDs. So I guess this didn't work out. Disabling it
again.
m3u files are normally just text files with a list of filenames. Nothing
actually mandates that there is a header. Until now, we've rejected such
files, because there's absolutely no way to detect them.
If nothing else claims the file, the extension is ".m3u", and if the
contents of the file look like text, then load it as m3u playlist. The
text heuristic is pretty cheap, but at least it should prevent trying
to load binary data as playlist. (Which would "work", but result in a
catastrophic user experience.)
Due to the text heuristic, UTF-16/32 files will be rejected (unless they
have a header), but I don't care.
This was completely breaking any low-level caching. Change it so that at
least demuxer caching will work.
Do this by using the metadata cache mechanism to funnel through the menu
commands.
For some incomprehensible reason, I had to reorder the events (which
affects their delivery priority), or they would be ignored. Probably
some crap about the event state being cleared before it could be
delivered. I don't give a shit.
All this code sucks. It would probably be better to let discnav.c access
the menu event "queue" directly, and to synchronize access with a mutex,
instead of going through all the caching layers, making things
complicated and slow.
If EOF is reached after reading a line, the EOF flag is set. This was a
problem for the m3u code, which checked for EOF _after_ reading a line,
which will discard the last line read.
Also fix a typo in an unrelated part of the file.
All of this is basically due to how MPlayer's codecs.conf worked. It
had a demuxer-interface based an AVI, using FourCCs and data structures
found in AVI. FourCCs were used to map streams to decoders. For codecs
not supported by AVI, "MPlayer internal" FourCCs were made up.
codec_tags.c is there to bridge demuxers written against the old API to
the mpv one. By now, only demux_mkv.c needs this (because demux_mkv is
the only serious demuxer left - preferably, we should use libavformat
for mkv too, but I can't see this happening any time soon, because
libavformat _still_ doesn't support segment linking). But the codec
tables are full of weird stuff automatically extracted from the old
codecs.conf tables. Most of it isn't needed for mkv.
Remove all custom tags, readd those used by demux_mkv.c internally
(see vinfo and mkv_audio_tag tables). The rest is handled by the
tables provided by libavformat, which includes AVI and QT tags.
It was more complicated than necessary.
The behavior changes slightly. Now it might pass through extradata when
it didn't before (hopefully harmless), and doesn't fail with an error if
extradata is not available, even though it's needed (harmless, will fail
either way).
The if branch has a weak check to test whether the codec_id is the short
ID, and handles the long IDs in the else branch. The long IDs are all
longer than 12 bytes long, so hardcoding the string offset to get the
trailing part of the name makes sense. But the if condition checks for
another thing, which could get the else branch run even if the codec_id
is short.
Fix the bogus control flow and check if the codec_id is long enough. One
of these checks could be considered redundant, but include them both for
defensive coding.
Do a minimal check on data read with stream_peek(). This could help with
probing from unseekable streams in some situations. (We could check the
entire EBML and Matroska headers, but probably not worth the trouble. We
could also seek back to the start, which demux.c doesn't do, but which
would work usually - also not worth the trouble.)
Make the changes started in commit c827ae5f more eloborate, and provide
an option to control the amount of data read before the seek-target. To
achieve this, rewrite the loop that finds the lowest still acceptable
target cluster. It is now searched by time instead of file position. The
behavior (both with and without preroll option) may be different from
before this change, although it shouldn't be worse.
The change demux_mkv_read_cues() fixes a bug: when seeking after playing
normally, the code would erroneously assume that durations are set. This
doesn't happen if the first operation after loading was a seek instead
of playback.
This was removed in commit 480f82fa. This caused the cache display not
to update while paused, because the update_cache() function is never
called in the thread (now I remember why the extra call was "needed").
The old implementation intentionally run update_cache() only before
waiting on a mutex, with no further checks for the condition variable.
In theory, this is strictly not sane, but since it was just for the
retrieval of the very fuzzy cache status, it was ok. Now we want to call
update_cache() outside of the mutex though - which means that in order
to avoid missed wakeups, a proper condition has to be used.
Revert commit 24e52f66; even though the old beheavior doesn't make sense
(as the commit message assured), it turns out that this works better:
typically, it means preroll will start from the previous video key frame
(the video CUE index will contain clusters with video key frames only),
which often coincides with subtitle changes. Thus the old behavior is
actually better.
Change the code that uses CueDuration elements. Instead of merely
checking whether preroll should be done, find the first cluster that
needs to be read to get all subtitle packets. (The intention is to
compensate for the enlarged preroll cluster-range due to reverting
commit 24e52f66.)
Found by clang sanitizer. Casting unsigned integers to signed integers
with same size has implementation defined behavior (it's even allowed to
crash), but it seems reasonable to expect that reasonable
implementations do a complement of 2 "conversion".
This considered only index entries that were for the same track ID as
the track used for seeking. This doesn't make much sense for preroll;
it'll just possibly skip clusters, and select an earlier cluster.
One possible negative side-effect is that the preroll might be too tight
now, and miss subtitle packets more often.
The demuxer has a hack to seek to the cluster before the target cluster
in order to "catch" subtitle lines that start before the seek target,
but overlap with the video after the seek target.
Avoid this hack if the cue index indicates that there are no overlapping
subtitle packets that can be caught by seeking to the previous cluster.
Nothing is done with them yet. This is preparation for the following
commit.
CueRelativePosition isn't even saved anywhere, because I don't intend to
use it. (Too messy for no gain.)
Instead of indexing only 1 packet per cluster (which is enough for
working seeking), add every packet to the index.
Since on seek, we go through every single index entry, this probably
makes seeking slower. On the other hand, this code is used for files
without index only (e.g. incomplete files), so it probably doesn't
matter much.
Preparation for the following commits.
If no packets are queued, the readahead time is obviously 0.
If the end time is smaller than the start time, the problem is probably
that audio and video start at slightly different times - report 0 in
this case too.
Do this because seeing "???" as readahead time is a bit annoying.
This influences the demuxer readahead display. If a stream has reached
EOF, we want to ignore it for the purpose of this calculation.
Note that if a stream contains no packets, it still should cause the
value 0s to be displayed (unless it's EOF), because that's just the
actual situation.
This was relying on the fact that timestamps will always be numerically
larger than MP_NOPTS_VALUE, but the trick didn't actually work for
MP_PTS_MIN. Be a bit more sincere, and don't rely on this anymore. This
fixes the comparison, and avoids the readahead amount displaying as
"???" in some situations (since one of the values was NOPTS).
In this case, we didn't find any new packets for this stream, even
though we've read ahead as much as possible. (If reading ahead in this
case, the "Too many packets in the demuxer packet queues" error is
normally printed.)
If we do consider this an underrun, handle_pause_on_low_cache() will
pause and show the "buffering" state, which is not useful.
Could also happen on very bad interleaving.
This mechanism was introduced for Opus, and allows correct skipping of
"preroll" data, as well as discarding trailing audio if the file's
length isn't a multiple of the audio frame size.
Not sure how to handle seeking. I don't understand the purpose of the
SeekPreRoll element.
This was tested with correctness_trimming_nobeeps.opus, remuxed to mka
with mkvmerge v7.2.0. It seems to be correct, although the reported file
duration is incorrect (maybe a mkvmerge issue).
Instead of defining a separate data structure in the core.
For some odd reason, demux_chapter exported the chapter time in
nano-seconds. Change that to the usual timestamps (rename the field
to make any code relying on this to fail compilation), and also remove
the unused chapter end time.
Basically, this will mark the demuxer as seekable with rtmp* and mmsh
protocols. These protocols have network-level time seeking, and whether
you can seek on the byte level does not matter.
Until now, seeking was typically only enabled because of the cache, and
a (nonsensical) warning was shown accordingly.
It still could happen that the server doesn't actually support thse
requests (or simply rejects them), so this is somewhat imperfect.
I'm not sure if this could be done in libavformat instead. Probably not,
because libavformat doesn't seem to have any mechanism for trying one
protocol and reverting (or redirecting) to another one if needed.
This commit is sort of a hack too, because it redirects the URL by
pretending the http:// link is a playlist containing the mmsh:// link.
The list of mime types is borrowed from MPlayer (which has completely
different code to handle this).
This was originally done for DVD/BD/DVB, where the start position could
be something different from 0, and seeking back to 0 would mess it up
completely.
Since we're not quite sure that these streams are unseekable, we can
simplify this somewhat, and also make sure we also start at 0 for normal
files. Helps a little bit with the following edition reloading commit.
Although this is fine when the stream cache is active (which caches
these and returns the result immediately), it seems cleaner not to
rely on this detail.
Remove the update_cache() call from demux_thread(), because it's sort
of in the way. I forgot why it exists, and there's probably no good
reason for it to exist anyway.
It's needed for some obscure feature in combination with .rar reading.
However, it's unconditionally used by the subtitle loader code, so take
care of not blocking the main thread unnecessarily.
(Untested.)
Apparently using the stream index is the best way to refer to the same
streams across multiple FFmpeg-using programs, even if the stream index
itself is rarely meaningful in any way.
For Matroska, there are some possible problems, depending how FFmpeg
actually adds streams. Normally they seem to match though.
Especially with other components (libavcodec, OSX stuff), the thread
list can get quite populated. Setting the thread name helps when
debugging.
Since this is not portable, we check the OS variants in waf configure.
old-configure just gets a special-case for glibc, since doing a full
check here would probably be a waste of effort.
Normally, we pass libavformat demuxers a wrapped mpv stream. But in some
cases, such as HLS and RTSP, we let libavformat open the stream itself.
In these cases, set typical network properties like useragent according
to the mpv options.
(We still don't set it for the cases where libavformat opens other
streams on its own, e.g. when opening the companion .sub file for .idx
files - not sure if we maybe should always set these options.)
Fixes opening some streams.
This means the HLS playlist will be opened twice, but that's not much of
a problem, considering it's pretty small, and HLS will make many other
http accesses anyway.
The one in msg.c was mistakenly removed with commit e99a37f6.
I didn't actually test the change in ao_sndio.c (but obviously "ap"
shouldn't be static).
Commit 50e131b43e happened to make it work for DVD (because the higher
bits of the ID are masked in the DVD case), but failed for Bluray. This
probably fixes it, although I don't have a sample to multiple streams to
confirm it really does it right.
CC: @mpv-player/stable
This code meant to flush demuxer internal buffers by doing a byte seek
to the current position. In theory this shouldn't drop any stream data.
However, if the stream positions mismatch, then avio_seek() (called by
av_seek_frame()) stops being a no-op, and might for example read some
data to skip to the seek target. (This can happen if the distance is
less than SHORT_SEEK_THRESHOLD.)
The positions get out of sync because we drop data at one point (which
is what we _want_ to do). Strictly speaking, the AVIOContext flushing is
done incorrectly, becuase pb->pos points to the start of the buffer, not
the current position. So we have to increment pb->pos by the buffered
amount.
Since there are other weird reasons why the positions might go out of
sync (such as stream_dvd.c dropping buffers itself), and they don't
necessarily need to be in sync in the first place unless AVIOContext has
nothing buffered internally, just use the sledgehammer approach and
correct the position manually.
Also run av_seek_frame() after this. Currently, it shouldn't read
anything, but who knows how that might change with future libavformat
development.
This whole change didn't have any observable effect for me, but I'm
hoping it fixes a reported problem.
When flushing the AVIOContext, make sure it can't seek back to discarded
data. buf_ptr is just the current read position, while buf_end - buffer
is the actual buffer size. Since mpegts.c is littered with seek calls,
it might be that the ability to seek could read
Mark the stream (which the demuxer uses) as not seekable. The cache can
enable seeking again (this behavior is sometimes useful for other
things). I think this should have had no bad influence in theory, since
seeking BD/DVD first does the "real" seek, then flushes libavformat and
reads new packets.
Makes it behave slightly better for VP9. This is also the behavior
libavformat has.
Also while we're at it, don't set duration except for the first packet.
Normally we don't use the duration except for subtitles (which are never
parsed or "laced"), so this should make no observable difference.
This was once central, but now it's almost unused. Only vf_divtc still
uses it for extremely weird and incomprehensible reasons. The use in
stream.c is trivial. Replace these, and remove mpbswap.h.
stream_cdda's output format is linked to demux_raw's default audio
format, and at least we don't care enough to provide a separate
mechanism to let stream_cdda explicitly set the format, so they must
match.
Judging from the existing code, it looks like CDDA always outputs little
endian. stream_cdda.c changed this back to native endian (what demux_raw
expects). Just make them both little endian. This requires less code,
and also having a raw demuxer's behavior depend on the endianness of the
machine isn't very sane anyway.
See previous commits. This finally replaces directly reading the file
data into a struct with reading them manually. In theory this is more
portable (no alignment issues and other things). For the most part,
it's nice seeing this gone.
MPlayer traditionally did this because it made sense: the most important
formats (avi, asf/wmv) used Microsoft formats, and many important
decoders (win32 binary codecs) also did. But the world has changed, and
I've always wanted to get rid of this thing from the codebase.
demux_mkv.c internally still uses it, because, guess what, Matroska has
a VfW muxing mode, which uses these data structures natively.
Let codec_tags.c do the messy mapping.
In theory we could simplify further by makign demux_mkv.c directly use
codec names instead of the MPlayer-inherited "internal FourCC" business,
but I'd rather not touch this - it would just break things.
For a while, we used this to transfer PCM from demuxer to the filter
chain. We had a special "codec" that mapped what MPlayer used to do
(MPlayer passes the AF sample format over an extra field to ad_pcm,
which specially interprets it).
Do this by providing a mp_set_pcm_codec() function, which describes a
sample format in a generic way, and sets the appropriate demuxer header
fields so that libavcodec interprets it correctly. We use the fact that
libavcodec has separate PCM decoders for each format. These are
systematically named, so we can easily map them.
This has the advantage that we can change the audio filter chain as we
like, without losing features from the "rawaudio" demuxer. In fact, this
commit also gets rid of the audio filter chain formats completely.
Instead have an explicit list of PCM formats. (We could even just have
the user pass libavcodec PCM decoder names directly, but that would be
annoying in other ways.)
Before this commit, there was AF_FORMAT_AC3 (the original spdif format,
used for AC3 and DTS core), and AF_FORMAT_IEC61937 (used for AC3, DTS
and DTS-HD), which was handled as some sort of superset for
AF_FORMAT_AC3. There also was AF_FORMAT_MPEG2, which used
IEC61937-framing, but still was handled as something "separate".
Technically, all of them are pretty similar, but may use different
bitrates. Since digital passthrough pretends to be PCM (just with
special headers that wrap digital packets), this is easily detectable by
the higher samplerate or higher number of channels, so I don't know why
you'd need a separate "class" of sample formats (AF_FORMAT_AC3 vs.
AF_FORMAT_IEC61937) to distinguish them. Actually, this whole thing is
just a mess.
Simplify this by handling all these formats the same way.
AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937() now returns 1 for all spdif formats (even MP3).
All AOs just accept all spdif formats now - whether that works or not is
not really clear (seems inconsistent due to earlier attempts to make
DTS-HD work). But on the other hand, enabling spdif requires manual user
interaction, so it doesn't matter much if initialization fails in
slightly less graceful ways if it can't work at all.
At a later point, we will support passthrough with ao_pulse. It seems
the PulseAudio API wants to know the codec type (or maybe not - feeding
it DTS while telling it it's AC3 works), add separate formats for each
codecs. While this reminds of the earlier chaos, it's stricter, and most
code just uses AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937().
Also, modify AF_FORMAT_TYPE_MASK (renamed from AF_FORMAT_POINT_MASK) to
include special formats, so that it always describes the fundamental
sample format type. This also ensures valid AF formats are never 0 (this
was probably broken in one of the earlier commits from today).
Until now, the audio chain could handle both little endian and big
endian formats. This actually doesn't make much sense, since the audio
API and the HW will most likely prefer native formats. Or at the very
least, it should be trivial for audio drivers to do the byte swapping
themselves.
From now on, the audio chain contains native-endian formats only. All
AOs and some filters are adjusted. af_convertsignendian.c is now wrongly
named, but the filter name is adjusted. In some cases, the audio
infrastructure was reused on the demuxer side, but that is relatively
easy to rectify.
This is a quite intrusive and radical change. It's possible that it will
break some things (especially if they're obscure or not Linux), so watch
out for regressions. It's probably still better to do it the bulldozer
way, since slow transition and researching foreign platforms would take
a lot of time and effort.
