The previous default ("no") seemed to be equivalent to "min" in practice
(though it might depend on the website, which is even worse).
Better just select the best stream by default.
Apparently broken files are popular enough that this is still needed.
It's relatively often asked on the IRC channel, and I also found it on
the archwiki mpv page.
The list of aspect ratios is taken from the archwiki page, with "16:10"
removed (because I doubt there are actually files with this aspect
ratio).
This queries the _ICC_PROFILE property on the root window. It also tries
to reload the ICC when it changes, or if the mpv window changes the
monitor. (If multiple monitors are covered, mpv will randomly select one
of them.)
The official spec is a dead link on freedesktop.org, so don't blame me
for any bugs.
Note that this assumes that Xinerama screen numbers match the way mpv
enumerates the xrandr monitors. Although there is some chance that this
matches, it most likely doesn't, and we actually have to do complicated
things to map the screen numbers. If it turns out that this is required,
I will fix it as soon as someone with a suitable setup for testing the
fix reports it.
Merge update_icc_profile() into get_and_update_icc_profile() - there's
no reason anymore to keep them separate. The former is only called by
the latter, and the separation of responsibilities between them is
blurry a best.
Query the ICC profile only if the corresponding feature is actually
enabled. Additionally, change the error behavior of this code. Make
loading failure non-fatal, and distinguish between runtime error and
unimplemented functionality.
Fix a memory leak in gl_lcms.c (although the changes in vo_opengl.c
already take care of this, it's just logical and cleaner).
Seems like several people agree that it's a good filter for downscaling.
Setting this option by default may also prevent people from accidentally
using an unsuitable filter for downscaling by setting "scale" and
without being aware of the impliciations (maybe). On the other hand,
this change is not strictly backwards compatible for the same reasons.
Also, allow disabling this option with scale-down="" (before this, not
setting it was the only way to do this - not possible anymore if it's
set by default). This is what the change in handle_scaler_opt() does.
Somehow, the default radius for filters with variable radius was set in
mp_init_filter(). gl_video.c used NAN as default value for the radius,
which would make the filter use the default radius. Simplify this, and
set the default radius directly in the gl_video options. It also makes
the options easier to understand, because the default value listed in
--vo=opengl:help actually shows the default value.
Remove the function can_use_filter_kernel(), because it doesn't set a
radius if none is set. The function is worthless anyway (something about
making filter_kernels.c reusable to other VOs, and trying to deal with
the possibility that it could provide filters not supported by
vo_opengl.)
Usually, a VO must react to VOCTRL_REDRAW_FRAME in order to redraw the
current screen correctly if video is paused (this is done to update
OSD). But if it's not supported, we can just draw the current image
again in the generic vo.c code.
Unfortunately, this turned out pretty useless, because the VOs which
would benefit from this need to redraw even if there is no image, in
order to draw a black screen in --idle --force-window mode. The way
redrawing is handled in the X11 common code and in vo_x11 and vo_xv is
in the way, and I'm not sure what exactly vo_wayland requires. Other VOs
have a non-trivial implementation of VOCTRL_REDRAW_FRAME, which
(probably) makes redrawing slightly more efficient, e.g. by skipping
texture upload. So for now, no VO uses this new functionality, but since
it's trivial, commit it anyway.
The vo_driver->untimed case is for forcibly disabling redraw for vo_lavc
and vo_image always.
At the time screenshot support was added, images weren't refcounted yet,
so screenshots required specialized implementations in the VOs. But now
we can handle these things much simpler. Also see commit 5bb24980.
If there are VOs in the future which can't do this (e.g. they need to
write to the image passed to vo_driver->draw_image), this still could be
disabled on a per-VO basis etc., so we lose no potential performance
advantages.
For some sites, youtube-dl sends a special user-agent. If we don't send
the same user-agent, the server will reject mpv's connection attempt.
This was observed with trailers.apple.com. Fix it by forcing the
user-agent youtube-dl uses.
Some sites set cookies when doing a website access, and require the
client to provide these cookies when downloading the actual media. This
is needed at least by nicovideo.jp. Fix by adding youtube-dl's cookies
to our request headers.
Both of these require a very recent youtube-dl version (youtube-dl added
the necessary headers a few hours ago). The script still works with
older youtube-dl versions, though.
This was previously done in common code but now it's left to backends. Also
remove the GL4 stuff since requesting a 3_2_Core context creates a 4.1 context
here (wtf).
Use different VOCTRLs for "window" and normal screenshot modes. The
normal one will probably be removed, and replaced by generic code in
vo.c, and this commit is preparation for this. (Doing it the other way
around would be slightly simpler, but I haven't decided yet about the
second one, and touching every VO is needed anyway in order to remove
the unneeded crap. E.g. has_osd has been unused for a long time.)
New command `mouse <x> <y> [<button> [single|double]]` is introduced.
This will update mouse position with given coordinate (`<x>`, `<y>`),
and additionally, send single-click or double-click event if `<button>`
is given.
vo.c queried the VO at initialization whether it wants to be updated on
every display frame, or every video frame. If the smoothmotion option
was changed at runtime, the rendering mode in vo.c wasn't updated.
Just let vo_opengl set the mode directly. Abuse the existing
vo_set_flip_queue_offset() function for this.
Also add a comment suggesting the use of --display-fps to the manpage,
which doesn't have anything to do with the rest of this commit, but is
important to make smoothmotion run well.
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.
The symlink trick made waf go crazy (deleting source files, getting
tangled up in infinite recursion... I wish I was joking). This means we
still can't build the client API examples in a reasonable way using the
include files of the local repository (instead of globally installed
headers). Not building them at all is better than deleting source files.
Instead, provide some manual instructions how to build each example
(except for the Qt examples, which provide qmake project files).
The logic disabled framedropping if the frame was interpolated (i.e. the
render call is only done to interpolate between the previous frame, and
the frame before that).
It seems doing this wasn't even necessary, and broke framedrop in
smoothmotion mode. In fact, this code did nothing for display with video
fps below display fps. It did prevent the framedrop counter from going
up, though. So change it so that dropped interpolated frames are never
reported. (Doing so can give confusing results, such as dropping 1000s
of frames on slow operations like video start or changing filters.)
The MSDN documentation for IsFormatSupported says a return code of
AUDCLNT_E_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT means the function "succeeded but the
specified format is not supported in exclusive mode." This seems to
imply that the format is supported in shared mode, and that's what the
old code assumed, however try_format would incorrectly return success
with some drivers.
The remarks section of the documentation contradicts that assumption. It
says that in shared mode, if the audio engine does not support the
caller-specified format or any similar format, ppClosestMatch is set to
NULL and the function returns AUDCLNT_E_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT. This is the
same as in exclusive mode, so treat AUDCLNT_E_UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT the
same regardless of opt_exclusive. In shared mode, the format selection
code will fall back to the mix format, which should always be supported.
`core-idle` depends on seeking state `mpctx->restart_complete`,
so make `core-idle` notified whenever `seeking` is notified, too.
`paused-for-cache` can be changed on MPV_EVENT_CACHE_UPDATE obviously.
Finally, `MPV_EVENT_PLAYBACK_RESTART` should be notified after
`mpctx->restart_complete` changed.
SmoothMotion is a way to time and blend frames made popular by MadVR. It's
intended behaviour is to remove stuttering caused by mismatches between the
display refresh rate and the video fps, while preserving the video's original
artistic qualities (no soap opera effect). It's supposed to make 24fps video
playback on 60hz monitors as close as possible to a 24hz monitor.
Instead of drawing a frame once once it's pts has passed the vsync time, we
redraw at the display refresh rate, and if we detect the vsync is between two
frames we interpolated them (depending on their position relative to the vsync).
We actually interpolate as few frames as possible to avoid a blur effect as
much as possible. For example, if we were to play back a 1fps video on a 60hz
monitor, we would blend at most on 1 vsync for each frame (while the other 59
vsyncs would be rendered as is).
Frame interpolation is always done before scaling and in linear light when
possible (an ICC profile is used, or :srgb is used).
These aliases were removed in commit 1ec77214. Add a notice to the
manpage how to get these back. Apparently, "lanczos2" and "lanczos3"
were the only interesting aliases possibly used by someone, so the
description is limited to these two.
These are now auto-detected sanely; and enabled whenever it would be a
performance or quality gain (which is pretty much everything except
bilinear/bilinear scaling).
Perhaps notably, with the absence of scale_sep, there's no more way to
use convolution filters on hardware without FBOs, but I don't think
there's hardware in existence that doesn't have FBOs but is still fast
enough to run the fallback (slow) 2D convolution filters, so I don't
think it's a net loss.
This is significantly faster for FBOs on most modern GPUs, although it
did not result in a huge difference for the video source texture on the
sizes I tested. It might be more significant for 1080p or 4K content, so
it's worth revisiting this in the future.
It also renames SAMPLE_BILINEAR to SAMPLE_TRIVIAL to match the
semantics.
This is better even for non-separable. The only exception is when using
bilinear for both lscale and cscale. I've fixed the
documentation/comments to make more sense.
