Also add a "raw" prefix for commands, which prevents property expansion.
The idea is that if the commands are generated by a program, it doesn't
have to know whether the command expands properties or not.
This is more consistent, and doesn't bother the user with ordering
rules when new prefixes are added.
Will break obscure uses of legacy commands: if the command is supposed
to be translated by the legacy command bridge, and if that command uses
one of the pausing* prefixes, the command can't be parsed. Well, just
use the new commands in this case.
Add the "vf" command, which allows changing the video filter chain at
runtime. For example, the 'y' key could be bound to toggle deinterlacing
by adding 'y vf toggle yadif' to the input.conf.
Reconfiguring the video filter chain normally resets the VO, so that it
will be "stuck" until a new video frame is rendered. To mitigate this, a
seek to the current position is issued when the filter chain is changed.
This is done only if playback is paused, because normal playback will
show an actual new frame quickly enough.
If vdpau hardware decoding is used, filter insertion (whether it fails
or not) will break the video for a while. This is because vo_vdpau
resets decoding related things on vo_config().
With the current semantics, there's no reason to disallow this.
(Although in my opinion, -vf should rather map to -vf-add than -vf-set,
however that is an independent issue from this change.)
Works like -vf-add, except if a filter already exists and has the same
parameters, it's removed instead of added.
Not really useful on the command line itself, but will make sense for
runtime filter changing in the following commit.
Until now, -vf-del required a list of indexes. This was a bit
inconvenient, so add support for using filter names too. Also simplify
the code a bit, doing the change would have been too painful otherwise.
The main() function is special, and omitting the return statement would
make it always return 0. And also, mpv_main() actually never returns, it
calls exit() through exit_player() instead. But change it anyway,
because it looks misleading.
Apparently useful for dumping DVD. Could also be used to rip streams
with libquvi and such, but for that there are better tools. Actually
I doubt there aren't better tools to dump DVDs, but whatever, this was
a feature request, so I don't need a good reason.
This helps passing the channel layout correctly from decoder to audio
filter chain. (Because that part "reuses" the demuxer level codec
parameters, which is very disgusting.)
Note that ffmpeg stuff already passed the channel layout via
mp_copy_lav_codec_headers(). So other than easier dealing with the
demuxer/decoder parameters mess, there's no real advantage to doing
this.
Make the --channels option accept a channel map. Since simple numbers
map to standard layouts with the given number of channels, this is
downwards compatible. Likewise for demux_rawaudio.
This actually breaks audio for 5/6/8 channels. There's no reordering
done yet. The actual reordering will be done inside of af_lavrresample
and has to be made part of the format negotiation.
This adds Mission Control fullscreen functionality to mpv. Since this doesn't
play well with many of mpv's features disable it by default. Users can activate
this feature by using `--native-fs` when starting mpv.
Fixes#34
This commit is a followup on the previous one and uses a solution I like more
since it totally decouples the Cocoa code from mpv's core and tries to emulate
a generic Cocoa application's lifecycle as much as possible without fighting
the framework.
mpv's main is executed in a pthread while the main thread runs the native cocoa
event loop.
All of the thread safety is mainly accomplished with additional logic in
cocoa_common as to not increase complexity on the crossplatform parts of the
code.
Schedule mpv's playloop as a high frequency timer inside the main Cocoa event
loop. This has the benefit to allow accessing menus as well as resizing the
window without the playback being blocked and allows to remove countless hacks
from the code that involved manually pumping the event loop as well simulating
manually some of the Cocoa default behaviours.
A huge improvement consists in removing NSApplicationLoad. This is a C function
defined in the Cocoa header and implements a minimal OSX application under ther
hood so that you can use the Cocoa GUI toolkit from C/C++ without having to
respect the Cocoa standards in terms of application initialization. This was
bad because the behaviour implemented by NSApplicationLoad was hard to customize
and had several gotchas especially in the menu department.
mpv was changed to be just a nib-less application. All the Cocoa part is still
generated in code but the event handling is now not dissimilar to what is
present in a stock Mac application.
As a part of reviewing the initialization process, I also removed all of
`osdep/macosx_finder_args`. The useful parts of the code were moved to
`osdep/macosx_appication` which has the broaded responsibility of managing the
full lifecycle of the Cocoa application. By consequence the
`--enable-macosx-finder` configure switch was killed as well, as this feature
is always enabled.
Another change the users will notice is that when using a bundle the `--quiet`
option will be inserted much earlier in the initializaion process. This results
in mpv not spamming mpv.log anymore with all the initialization outputs.
Makes it easier to understand... maybe. It's still pretty strange how
this function may either queue the seek or seek immediately. The way
it actually works doesn't change, queuing the seek is just moved into
the function.
Also add a execute_queued_seek() function, which resets the queue state
correctly.
The frontend doesn't use this.
Also use double for returning the chapter times. Everything uses double
for times, and there's no reason to use float here.
These were found by the cppcheck and scan-build static analyzers. Most
of these aren't interesting (the 2 previous commits fix some interesting
cases found by these analyzers), and they don't nearly fix all warnings.
(Most of the unfixed warnings are spam, things MPlayer never cared
about, or false positives.)
A "watch later" command is now mapped to Shift+Q. This quits the player
and stores the playback state in a config file in ~/.mpv/watch_later/.
When calling the player with the same file again, playback is resumed
at that time position.
It's also possible to make mpv save playback state always on quit with
the --save-position-on-quit option. Likewise, resuming can be disabled
with the --no-resume-playback option.
This also attempts to save some playback parameters, like fullscreen
state or track selection. This will unconditionally override config
settings and command line options (which is probably not what you would
expect, but in general nobody will really care about this). Some things
are not backed up, because that would cause various problems. Additional
subtitle files, video filters, etc. are not stored because that would be
too hard and fragile. Volume/mute state are not stored because it would
mess up if the system mixer is used, or if the system mixer was
readjusted in the meantime.
Basically, the tradeoff between perfect state restoration and
complexity/fragility makes it not worth to attempt to implement
it perfectly, even if the result is a little bit inconsistent.
Now vid/aid/sid can be used as properties. video/audio/sub still work,
but they are aliases for the "real" properties.
This guarantees that options/properties use the same value range. One
consequence is that the video/audio/sub properties return "no" as value
if no track is selected instead of -1.
Also, mark demuxer as not capable if DVD playback is done. The problem
with DVD is that playback time (stream_pts) is not reported frame-exact,
and the time is a "guess" at best.
YCgCo can be manually selected, but will also be used if the decoder
reports YCgCo. To make things more fun, files are sometimes marked
incorrectly, which will display such broken files incorrectly starting
with this commit.
This is an attempt to make quoting of sub-option values less awkward,
even if it works only with some shells. This is needed mainly for
vf_lavfi. Also update the vf_lavfi manpage section.
Rename the struct MPOpts "start_pause" field to "pause". Store the user-
pause state in that field, so that both runtime pause toggling and the
--pause switch change the same variable. Simplify the initialization of
pause so that using --pause and changing the file while paused is
exactly the same case (changing the file while paused doesn't unpause,
this has been always this way).
Also make it a bit more consistent. Before, starting with --pause would
reset the pause state for every file, instead of following the usual
semantics for option switches (compare with behavior of --fs).
The core pauses and unpauses automatically to wait for the network
cache (also known as buffering). This conflicted with user pause
control, and was perceived as if the player was unresponsive and/or
the cache just overturned the user's decisions.
Change it so that the actual pause state and the pause state as
intended by the user never conflict. If the user toggles pause, the
pause state will be in the expected state as soon as the cache is
loaded.
There were two problems.
First, frames past the end of the current segment were added to the
index, which messed up backstepping. Check for the endpts before
added a frame to the index.
Second, it wasn't possible to step over segments which change the file.
Changing a file causes decoder reinitialization, which (rightfully)
is treated as discontinuity (and vo_pts_history_seek_ts was changed).
Add some extra code to pretend that a segment-switching seek/reinit
does not introduce discontinuities.
There's still a weird corner case: sometimes, you can frame step forward
on the last frame of a segment without reaching the next segment
immediately. This is because the playloop switches into audio-only mode.
The segment is switched when both audio and video have ended, so the
frame stepping will play random sized chunks of audio until the segment
will be switched. This gives the impression that backstepping doesn't
work perfectly, even though it's the other way around and frame stepping
behaves weird. This is a consequence of wanting to make frame stepping
work with audio, and is not really a bug.
Allows stepping back one frame via the frame_back_step inout command,
bound to "," by default.
This uses the precise seeking facility, and a perfect frame index built
on the fly. The index is built during playback and precise seeking, and
contains (as of this commit) the last 100 displayed or skipped frames.
This index is used to find the PTS of the previous frame, which is then
used as target for a precise seek. If no PTS is found, the core attempts
to do a seek before the current frame, and skip decoded frames until the
current frame is reached; this will create a sufficient index and the
normal backstep algorithm can be applied.
This can be rather slow. The worst case for backstepping is about the
same as the worst case for precise seeking if the previous frame can be
deduced from the index. If not, the worst case will be twice as slow.
There's also some minor danger that the index is incorrect in case
framedropping is involved. For framedropping due to --framedrop, this
problem is ignored (use of --framedrop is discouraged anyway). For
framedropping during precise seeking (done to make it faster), we try
to not add frames to the index that are produced when this can happen.
I'm not sure how well that works (or if the logic is sane), and it's
sure to break with some video filters. In the worst case, backstepping
might silently skip frames if you backstep after a user-initiated
precise seek. (Precise seeks to do indexing are not affected.)
Likewise, video filters that somehow change timing of frames and do not
do this in a deterministic way (i.e. if you seek to a position, frames
with different timings are produced than when the position is reached
during normal playback) will make backstepping silently jump to the
wrong frame. Enabling/disabling filters during playback (like for
example deinterlacing) will have similar bad effects.
It's not sure if there's anything that could trigger this accidentally.
Normally this can't happen, because hrseek ends always if the PTS is
large enough, the same condition which disables framedrop. Seeking
resets hrseek framedrop anyway.
On the other hand, this change makes the code easier to understand,
and might be more robust against weird corner cases.
