Reduces code needed for implementing string and int64_t read-only
properties.
Originally, there actually was a m_property_string_ro(), but it was
removed, as that would have implicitly strdup'ed the string. But the
new name m_property_strdup_ro() should make it quite clear what is
happening.
Clean up handling of libquvi (which resolves URLs of streaming sites
into URLs to the actual media playable by mpv). Move the code out of
open.c to quvi.c, and invoke it explicitly from mplayer.c, instead of
trying to resolve every filename passed to open_stream().
This allows easily passing metadata from the quvi context to the
frontend. Expose QUVIPROP_PAGETITLE as "media-title" property, and use
that instead of "filename" for the mplayer window title. (For YouTube,
this is the video title.) It's cleaner too.
Handle a potential reliability issue: check quvi_getprop return values.
Since open.c contains barely anything but the open_stream() stub, move
that to stream.c and delete open.c.
There are a number of options which modify ASS subtitle rendering. Most
of these do things that can interfere with the styling done by subtitle
scripts, resulting in incorrect rendering. Add the --ass-style-override
option to make it easy to disable all overrides. This helps trouble-
shooting, and makes it more practical to use the override features. (You
can simply toggle the ass-style-override property at runtime, should
one of the style override options break subtitle rendering at a certain
point.)
This mainly affects whether most --ass-* options are applied, as well
as --sub-pos. Some things, like explicit style overrides loaded with
--ass-force-style, can't be changed at runtime using the
ass-style-override property.
This disables warning messages when the legacy input command bridge is
used. For now, user input.confs should just keep working as if nothing
has changed. The deprecation warnings will be enabled again at a later
point, and the legacy bridge will be eventually removed.
The user-visible track IDs are normalized and don't match with whatever
the demuxer uses.
Completely untested. It might actually work with both demux_lavf and
demux_ts.
The property-to-option bridge (when properties change values normally
set by the command line parser) uses M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE to get the
exact option type. In these cases, the entry in mp_properties[] is
unused, except for the name field and the property callback. Instead,
mp_property_generic_option() implements M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE and returns
the m_option as defined in cfg-mplayer.h. However, if a property is
unavailable, mp_property_generic_option() is never actually called, and
M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE will return the dummy option entry.
We could make sure that the dummy option entry equals the option entry
defined in cfg-mplayer.h. But this would duplicate all information.
Add a dummy option type m_option_type_dummy, which is used by entries
using the property-to-option bridge. Make M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE fail if
this type is encountered.
This dummy should never be used, as it isn
The "no-osd" prefix was introduced earlier to disable OSD selectively
based on the key binding. Extend this, and allow the user to force
display of an OSD bar ("osd-bar"), OSD message ("osd-msg") or both
("osd-msg-bar"). This changes mainly how property setting functions
behave.
The default behavior is still the same.
This affects property format strings like they are used in the
"show_text" input command, for --playing-msg, and other places.
To quote the documentation comment on m_properties_expand_string():
${NAME} is expanded to the value of property NAME.
If NAME starts with '=', use the raw value of the property.
${NAME:STR} expands to the property, or STR if the property is not
available.
${?NAME:STR} expands to STR if the property is available.
${!NAME:STR} expands to STR if the property is not available.
STR is recursively expanded using the same rules.
"$$" can be used to escape "$", and "$}" to escape "}".
"$>" disables parsing of "$" for the rest of the string.
Most importantly, "?(property:str)" becomes "${?property:str}".
Make the simple fallback case easier, e.g. "${property:fallback}"
instead of "${property}?(!property:fallback)".
Add the ability to escape the format meta characters. "$" is used for
escaping, because escaping with "\" is taken by the commands parser in
the layer below. "$>" can be used to disable interpretation of format
strings (of course escapes by the commands parser can't be canceled).
By default, properties which are unavailable or don't exist are turned
into a string signaling the status (e.g. "(unavailable)"), instead of
an empty string. If an empty string is desired, this has to be done
explicitly: "${property:}" (the fallback part is an empty string). Raw
properties still return an empty string on error.
m_properties_expand_string() now returns a talloc'ed pointer, instead of
a malloc'ed one.
This is Better (tm).
The only actual change is that with M_PROPERTY_SET_STRING, the option
parser will use the property name, instead whatever was set in the
name field of the option returned by M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE. In most cases,
these should be the same, though.
Now it depends on the command whether a property wraps around, or stops
at min/max valid property value.
For practically all properties, it's quite unambiguous what the "switch"
command should have done, and there's technically no need to replace it
with these new commands. More over, most properties that cycle are
boolean anyway. But it seems more orthogonal to make the difference
explicit, rather than hardcoding it. Having different commands also
makes it more explicit to the user what these commands do, both just due
to the naming, and what wrapping policy is used. The code is simpler
too.
Move the code for "switch_ratio" to the M_PROPERTY_SET case of the
"aspect" property. The rules are exactly the same, e.g. setting a ratio
smaller than 0.1 sets the pixel aspect ratio to 1:1. For now, we define
that writing "0" sets the PAR to 1:1, and disallow -1 (possibly reserve
it to reset to default aspect ratio).
Instead, communicate the new value range with M_PROPERTY_GET_TYPE. Add
M_PROPERTY_GET_WRAP to allow properties to enable cycling instead of
stopping at min/max.
This should be done by mp_property_generic_option() only. Also reindent
levels_property_helper() to make it a little bit more readable.
Remove the m_option_get_ptr() function, which doesn't really make sense
anymore.
The Doxygen-style documentation comments were nothing but bloat.
Also move mp_property_do() and mp_property_print() to command.h, where
they should belong, and fix their argument types. m_property.c/h is
supposed to be generic, while command.h provides declarations specific
to the mplayer core.
Make more properties use the property-to-option bridge to reduce code
size and to enforce consistency. Some options are renamed to the same
as the properties (the property names are better in all cases).
Do some other minor cleanups. One bigger issue was memory management of
strings: M_PROPERTY_TO_STRING assumed the strings were statically
allocated, and no dynamic allocations could be returned. Fix this in
case the need for such properties arises in the future. Get rid of
m_property_string_ro(), because it's not always clear that the "action"
parameter is M_PROPERTY_SET and the string argument will be used.
Instead of clamping property values to the valid range in each property
implementation, handle it in the property layer. The functionality to
handle clamping for each type is in m_option.c.
It's not really clear whether this is really needed. Normally, the raw
values for M_PROPERTY_SET come only from m_option_type.parse (setting
properties as string) or from m_option_parse.add (using the "switch"
input command). However, since this was already done before, and since
we _really_ want to be sure only to write valid values, add this code
anyway. The newly added warnings/error messages should never actually
be printed during normal operation and are for debugging (if they
happen, we definitely want to see them).
Use the m_option code by default to format property values, instead of
having separate code in m_property.
To facilitate that, add a pretty_print callback to option types. These
format values in a more human readable and user friendly way, as opposed
to the print callback, which produces parseable values.
This also changes the strings used with flags. Instead of "enabled" and
"disabled", flags are formatted as "yes" and "no". (We could use the
pretty_print callback to deal with this, but we don't for consistency.)
Most property implementations checked whether the "arg" parameter was
NULL. This is entirely pointless, because NULL is actually never pased.
It was inconsistently done, too. Remove the checks.
Instead of forcing each property implementation implement its own logic
for M_PROPERTY_STEP_UP/M_PROPERTY_STEP_DOWN, handle it in the generic
property code.
Rename the M_PROPERTY_STEP_UP command to M_PROPERTY_SWITCH (the other
property command, M_PROPERTY_STEP_DOWN, isn't needed anymore: stepping
downwards is done by passing a negative argument). Always use double as
argument type; it makes the code easier, and covers all property types.
Move the code which does the actual type-specific value stepping to
m_option.c (the idea is that m_option handles types).
Some properties still have custom handlers implemented with
M_PROPERTY_SWITCH. They can't be mapped to the generic mechanism,
because their value range is dynamic or entirely unknown.
For some properties, the default step stride is changed to 1. This is no
issue, because the default bindings in input.conf all use an explicit
stride in the affected cases.
This was the option parser for the off_t C type. These days, off_t is
always int64_t, so replace all its uses by int64_t and CONF_TYPE_INT64.
Fix the --sstep option. It used CONF_TYPE_INT with an off_t variable,
which will result in invalid memory accesses. Make it use type double
instead, which seems to make more sense for this option.
Rename both the option and property to "osd-level", which fits a bit
better with the general naming scheme. Make it a choice instead of an
integer range. I failed to come up with good names for the various
levels, so leave them as-is.
Remove the useless property handler for the "loop" property too.
Replace --hardframedrop with --framedrop=hard. Rename the framedrop
property from "framedropping" to "framedrop" for the sake of making
command line options have the same name as their corresponding
property. Change the property to accept choice values instead of
numeric values.
Remove unused/forgotten auto_quality variable.
osd_show_[property_]text => show_text
osd_show_progression => show_progress
show_text, osd_show_property_text and osd_show_text both map to the
code for the previous osd_show_property_text. The only special thing
about osd_show_text is that you don't need to escape "$". Also,
unfortunately osd_show_property_text requires escaping things twice,
one time for the command parser, and the other time for the property
formatting code, while osd_show_text needed only one level of escaping.
Use "-" instead of "_" in property names. The intent is that property
names and options names should be the same (if they refer to the same
thing), and options use "-" as word separator.
Rename some other properties too, e.g. "switch_audio" -> "audio".
Add a way to translate the old property names to the new ones, similar
to the input command legacy bridge.
Update input.conf. Use the new property names, and don't use legacy
commands.
Most input commands had their own policy whether to display an OSD
message for user feedback or not. Some commands had two variants, one
that showed an OSD message and one that didn't (e.g. step_property_osd
and step_property).
Change it such that all commands show a message on the OSD. Add a
"no-osd" modifier that disables OSD for that command. Rename the
"step_property" and "step_property_osd" command to "switch", and rename
"set_property" and "set_property_osd" to "set".
Note that commands which haven't used OSD before still don't use OSD.
That will possibly be fixed later. (E.g. "screenshot" could display an
OSD message instead of just printing a message on the terminal.)
The chapter and edition properties still produce OSD messages even with
"no-osd", because they don't map so well to the property_osd_display[]
mechanism.
Make the definition more compact and less confusing by omitting rarely
used fields. Avoid having to initialize osd_id with -1 in every entry
by making 0 an unused OSD ID instead.
There are many input commands which are redundant to properties. They
were parsed like normal commands, but set_property_command() in
command.c handled them automatically using the property mechanism. This
still required having the command specifications around, and the code in
command.c was quite messy.
Replace this with a text based replacement mechanism. Some corner cases
are not handled: commands of form "seek_chapter 3 1" are supposed to set
the "chapter" property to 3. This use is probably rare, and doesn't show
up in the default input.conf.
The reason compatibility is kept is because breaking input.conf is quite
annoying, so a minimal effort is made to avoid this. Currently we print
an annoying warning every time a legacy command is used, though.
Also add a compatibility entry for "pt_step", which was removed some
time ago. Variations in whitespace are not handled, but it's good enough
to deal with old input.conf entries.
These have been replaced by properties. Also remove some other slave-
mode specific get commands that can be replaced by property uses.
The get_metadata() function didn't actually contain anything useful,
and just replicated code from other parts of mplayer.
The --loop option takes slightly different parameters now. --loop=0
used to mean looping forever. Now it means looping is disabled (this is
more logical: 2 means playing 2 more times, 1 means playing 1 more time,
and 0 should mean playing not again).
Now --loop=inf must be used to enable looping forever.
Extend choice types to allow an optional range of integers as values.
If CONF_RANGE is added to the flags of a m_option_type_choice option,
m_option.min/max specify a range of allowed integer values. This can be
used to remove "special" values from make integer range options. These
special values are unintuitive, and sometimes expose mplayer internals
to the user. The (internal) choice values can be freely mixed with the
specified integer value range. If there are overlaps, the choice values
are preferred for conversion to/from strings.
Also make sure the extension to choice options works with properties.
Add the ability to step choice properties downwards, instead of just
upwards.
It can't be re-implemented, because this isn't supported by libass. The
-subalign option and the associated sub-align slave property did
nothing. Remove them.
This was destroyed by Uoti Urpala in commit "subs: always use sub...".
Features should be either kept working or completely removed, but not
just crippled, which only inflates the code and frustrates users.
Remove subtitle selection code setting osd->ass_track directly and
vf_ass/vf_vo code rendering the track directly with libass. Instead,
do track selection and rendering with dec_sub.c functions.
Before, mpctx->set_of_ass_tracks[] contained bare libass tracks
generated from external subtitle files. For use with dec_sub.c, it now
contains struct sh_sub instances with decoder already initialized.
This commit breaks the sub_step command ('g' and 'y' keys) for
libass-rendered subtitles. It could be fixed, but it's so useless -
especially as with the existing implementation there's no practical
way to get subtitle delay back to normal after using it - that I
didn't bother.

To draw libass subtitles, the code used ASS_Renderer objects created
in vf_vo (VO rendering) or vf_ass. They were destroyed and recreated
together with the video filter chain. Change the code to use a single
persistent renderer instance stored in the main osd_state struct.
Because libass seems to misbehave if fonts are changed while a
renderer exists (even if ass_set_fonts() is called on the renderer
afterwards), the renderer is recreated after adding embedded fonts.
The known benefits are simpler code and avoiding delays when switching
between timeline parts from different files (libass fontconfig
initialization, needed when creating a new renderer, can take a long
time in some cases; switching between files rebuilds the video filter
chain, and this required recreating the renderers). On the other hand,
I'm not sure whether this could cause inefficient bitmap caching in
libass; explicitly resetting the renderer in some cases could be
beneficial. The new code does not keep the distinction of separate
renderers for vsfilter munged aspect vs normal; this means that
changing subtitle tracks can lose cache for the previous track.
The new code always sets some libass parameters on each rendering
call, which were previously only set if they had potentially changed.
This should be harmless as libass itself has checks to see if the
values differ from previous ones.

Add a new slave property which switches the current Matroska edition.
Since each edition can define an entirely new timeline, switching the
edition will simply restart playback at the beginning of the file with
the new edition selected.
Add 'E' as new keybinding to step the edition property.
DVD titles are still separate. Apparently they work similarly, but I
don't have any multi-title DVDs for testing. Also, cdda (for audio CDs)
uses the same mechanism as DVDs to report a number of titles, so there
seems to be confusion what exactly this mechanism is supposed to do.
That's why the edition code is completely separate for now.
Remove demuxer.num_titles. It was just a rather useless cache for the
return value of the DVD titles related STREAM_CTRL.
One rather obscure corner case isn't taken care of: if the ordered
chapters file has file local options set, they are reset on playback
restart. This is unexpected, because edition switching is meant to
behave like seeking back to the beginning of the file.
Introduce a general track struct for every audio/video/subtitle track
known to the frontend. External files (subtitles) are now represented
as tracks too. This mainly serves to clean up the subtitle selection
code: now every subtitle is simply a track, instead of using a messy
numbering that goes by subtitle type (as it was stored in the
global_sub_pos field). The mplayer fontend will list external subtitle
files as additional tracks.
The timeline code now tries to match the exact demuxer IDs of all
tracks. This may cause problems when Matroska files with different
track numberings are used with EDL timelines. Change demux_lavf not
to set demuxer IDs, since most time they are not set.
Whenever the demuxer is accessed to retrieve metadata, use the newly
introduced master_demuxer field instead. If a timeline is used, the
master_demuxer will still refer to the main file, instead to segments.
Instead of mpctx->demuxer->stream, access mpctx->stream; even though
they are the same, the code becomes shorter. For the TV code, introduce
a function get_tvh() to access the TV handle, instead of duplicating the
code all over the place. Often the demuxer field is checked to determine
whether something is currently played; prefer other methods over that.
Note that the code before always accessed the current timeline segment,
and would e.g. read file metadata of the current segment. Now it always
returns metadata for the master file. This may have various wanted and
unwanted effects.
This messes deeply with the subtitle bookkeeping data structures, and
would have to be reimplemented anyway.
It's not sure what this was even useful for. Possibly for slave mode.
When the internal mplayer MPEG demuxer was removed (commit 1fde09db),
the default demuxer when using dvdnav was set to libavformat. Now it
turns out that this doesn't work with libavformat. It will terminate
playback right after the audio runs out (instead of looping it like the
video, or whatever it's supposed to do). I'm not sure what exactly the
problem is, but since 1. even mplayer-svn can't handle DVD menus
directly (missing highlights), 2. DVD menus are essentially worthless,
and 3. I don't directly watch DVDs, don't bother with it and remove it.
For basic playback, there's still libdvdread support.
Also, use pkg-config for libdvdread, and drop support for in-tree
libdvdread. Remove support for in-tree libdvdcss as well.
Change "run" command to expand properties.
