Now loading cover art through mp_add_external_file requires an
additional argument to be set to true. This way not all video-add
commands end up being marked as cover art when they move through
mp_add_external_file, as originally changed in 55d7f9ded1 .
Additionally, this lets us clean up some logic that would otherwise be
duplicated between open_external_files and autoload_external_files, if
the logic had been kept split from mp_add_external_file.
Fixes#8358
Some tracks happen to lack bitrate information (ie. no tbr value).
In that case, just ignore the track while computing the max bitrate.
For an example, this is a stream in which all audio tracks
have no bitrate: https://www.raiplay.it/dirette/rai1
Previously the mouse command never ended up in enter/leave keypresses
for the default section even when logically required, because input.c
does not know the area of the default section and relies on something
feeding it ENTER/LEAVE presses - which the VO typically does but the
mouse command didn't.
Now the mouse command feeds it ENTER/LEAVE if required.
It's possible to handle it differently and more consistently by:
1. reverting this commit.
2. Updating the default section area whenever the osd dimensions change.
3. Always ignore MOUSE_ENTER keys because the position is not known yet
(but MOSE_MOVE typically follows right away).
4. On mouse move: first generate ENTER/LEAVE if required.
That would guarantee consistency between mouse position and enter/leave
events but could be more sensitive to manage (the default section has
"infinite" area which is used to capture any event outside of specific
section areas), while this commit keeps consistency same as before and
depending on correct external feeding - which we now do better, even if
still not optimally (like before, it's still technically possible that
a script recieves MOUSE_ENTER and then reads the position before it got
updated after the ENTER).
Add a third field: "hover", which is updated from input.c after input
keys MP_KEY_MOUSE_LEAVE and MP_KEY_MOUSE_ENTER - which are typically
sent by the VO.
It's part of mouse-pos and not a new property because it's highly tied
to mouse-pos - it makes x/y invalid while the cursor doesn't hover the
window.
Unike mouse-move, no dummy command was generated, so we add dummy
command in order for observer notification to work even while nothing
is bound.
Like mouse-pos, clients could not detect whether the mouse pointer
hovers the window because the OSC force-binds the MOUSE_LEAVE key, and
now they can using the hover field.
The lua mp.get_mouse_pos() wrapper still returns only x, y because
that's what osc.lua needs. Other clients can simply read the property.
mp.get_mouse_pos() is undocumented and is no longer required - the
property can be used officially by any client now, however, osc.lua
uses it, and also some user scripts learnt to rely on it, so we keep
it - as a trivial wrapper around the new mouse-pos property.
This is a read-only MPV_NODE value with integer fields: x, y.
The values are unmodified from mp_input_get_mouse_pos(...).
Observer notification of this property is tied to the INPUT_PROCESSED
event, which fires after mouse move even if no command is bound
(dummy commands are generated if nothing is bound to ensure that
mp_input_get_mouse_pos returns the latest values - see ac927e39 ).
This allows clients such as JSON IPC to observe mouse position even
while the OSC is enabled - the OSC force-binds mouse move for most
of the window area, making it impossible for other clients to bind
mouse move without breaking the OSC.
This can be viewed at page 4 of the internal stats display (i or I).
CPU time report is the same as at lua.c, but untested - doesn't seem
to work on windows - also not for lua.
TL;DR: Set env MPV_LEAK_REPORT=1 to enable js memory reporting stats.
This also almost doubles the memory usage by js scripts.
For memory reporting, we don't have enough info by default, because
even when using a custom allocator, mujs doesn't report the old size
(on free or realloc) because it doesn't track this value, and as
a result we can't track the overall size.
Our option are either to track the size of each allocation on our own,
or use talloc which tracks this value.
However, using talloc for mujs allocations adds a considerable
overhead, and almost doubles(!) the overall memory used, because each
individual allocation includes a considerable talloc header, and mujs
does many small allocations.
So our solution is that by default we behave like previously - not
using a custom allocator with mujs, and stats does not display memory
usage for js scripts.
However, if the env var MPV_LEAK_REPORT is set to 1, then we use
a custom allocator with talloc and track/report memory usage.
We can't switch allocator at runtime, so an mpv instance either tracks
or doesn't track js scripts memory usage, according to the env var.
(we could use a property and apply it whenever a new script starts,
so that it could change for newly launched scripts, but we don't).
This allows keybindings such as:
a script-message-to console type "seek :0 absolute" 6
% script-message-to console type "seek absolute-percent" 6
The cursor position 0 isn't allowed because it has the weird effect of
filling the console with the text twice, leaving the cursor in the
middle.
Negative positions would put the cursor n characters before the end, and
positions greater than the text's length at the end. They seem to work
at first, but the console breaks when you move the cursor, so they
aren't allowed.
It seems that float values don't cause issues, but I'm using the
argument's floor anyway to be safe. Using >= 1 instead of > 0 ignores
values like 0.5.
This introduces the delete-watch-later-config command, to complement
write-watch-later-config. This is an alternative to #8141.
The general problem that this change is attempting to help solve has
been described in #336, #3169 and #6574. Though persistent playback
position of a single file is generally a solved problem, this is not
the case for playlists, as described in #8138.
The motivation is facilitating intermittent playback of very large
playlists, consisting of hundreds of entries each many hours
long. Though the current "watch later" mechanism works well - provided
that the files each occur only once in that playlist, and are played
only via that playlist - the biggest issue is that the position is
lost completely should mpv exit uncleanly (e.g. due to a power
failure). Existing workarounds (in the form of Lua scripts which call
write-watch-later-config periodically) fail in the playlist case, due
to the mechanism used by mpv to determine where within a playlist to
resume playback from.
The missing puzzle piece needed to allow scripts to implement a
complete solution to this problem is simply a way to clean up the
watch-later configuration that the script asked mpv to write using
write-watch-later-config. With that in place, scripts can then
register an end-file event listener, check the stop playback reason,
and in the "eof" and "stop" case, invoke delete-watch-later-config to
delete any saved positions written by write-watch-later-config. The
script can then proceed to immediately write a new one when the next
file is loaded, which altogether allows mpv to resume from the correct
playlist and file position upon next startup.
Because events are delivered and executed asynchronously,
delete-watch-later-config takes an optional filename argument, to
allow scripts to clear watch-later configuration for files after mpv
had already moved on from playing them and proceeded to another file.
A Lua script which makes use of this change can be found here:

(A modification of the one written by @Hakkin, in that this one takes
advantage of the new command, and also saves the state immediately
when a new file is loaded.)
Picks up files like "cover.jpg". It's made part of normal external file
loading, so I'm adding 3 new options that are direct equivalents for the
options that control loading of external subtitle and audio files. Even
though I bet nobody wants them and they just increase confusion... I
guess the world is actually hell, so this outcome should be fine.
It prefers non-specific external files like "cover.jpg" over embedded
cover art. Not sure if that's wanted or unwanted.
There's some pain over explicitly marking such files as external
pictures. This is basically an optimization: in most cases, a heuristic
would treat an image file loaded with --external-file the same (it's a
heuristic because ffmpeg can't tell us whether something is an image or
a video). However, even with this heuristic, it would decode the cover
art picture again on each seek, which would essentially slow down
seeking in audio files. This bothered me greatly, which is why I'm
adding these additional options at all, and bothered with the previous
commit.
Fixes: #3056
Essentially, this lets video.c decide whether to consider a video track
cover art, instead of having the decoder wrapper use the lower level
sh_stream flag.
Some pain because of the dumb threading shit. Moving the code further
down to make some of it part of the lock should not change behavior,
although it could (framedrop nonsense).
This commit should not change actual behavior, and is only preparation
for the following commit.
Pause can be changed during a file change, such as with for example
--reset-on-next-file=pause, or in hooks, or by being quick, and in this
case the AO's pause state was not updated correctly. mpctx->ao_chain is
only set if playback is fully initialized, while the AO itself in
mpctx->ao can be reused across files.
Fix this by always running set_pause_state() if the pause option is
changed. Could cause new bugs since running this used to be explicitly
avoided outside of the loaded state. The handling of time_frame is
potentially worrisome.
Regression due to recent audio refactor; before that, the AO didn't have
a separate/persistent pause state.
Fixes: #8079
Since b74c09efbf, audio-only files let you seek to arbitrary points
beyond the end of the file (but still displayed the time clamped to the
nominal file duration). This was confusing and just not wanted. The
reason is probably that the commit removed setting the audio PTS for
data before the seek target, so if you seek past the end of the file,
the audio PTS is never set. This in turn means the logic to determine
the current playback time has no PTS at all, and thus falls back to the
seek PTS.
This happened in the past for other reasons (like efe43d768f). I have
enough of this, so I'm just changing the code to clamp the seek
timestamp to a "known" range. Do this when seeking ends, because in the
fallback case, the playback time shouldn't be stuck at e.g. "end +
seek_argument". Also do it when initiating a new seek (mp_seek), because
if the previous seek hasn't finished yet, it shouldn't add them up and
allow it to go "out of range" either. The latter is especially relevant
for hr-seeks.
Doing this clamping is problematic because the duration is a possibly
invalid value from the demuxer, or just missing. Especially with
timestamp resets, fun sometimes happens, and in these situations it
might be better not to clamp.
One could argue you should just use the last audio timestamp returned by
the decoder or demuxer (even if that directly conflicts with --end), but
that sounds even more hairy.
In summary: what a dumb waste of time, what the fuck.
Add a property that returns whether the window is focused, currently
only for X11 and Wayland.
My use cause for this is having an equivalent of pause-when-minimize.lua
for tiling window managers: make mpv play only while it's in the current
workspace or is focused (I'm fine with either one but prefer focus).
On X I do this by observing display-names, which is empty when the
rectangles of the display and mpv don't intersect, but on Wayland its
value doesn't change when mpv leaves the current workspace (and the same
check doesn't work since the geometries still intersect).
This could later be made writable as requested in #6252.
Note that on Wayland se shouldn't consider an unactivated window with
keyboard input focused.
The wlroots compositors I tested set activated after changing the
keyboard focus, so if you set wl->focused only in
keyboard_handle_enter() and keyboard_handle_leave() to avoid adding the
"has_keyboard_input" member, focused isn't set to true when first
opening mpv until you focus another window and focus mpv again.
Conversely, if that order can't be assumed for all compositors, we
should toggle wl->focused when necessary in keyboard_handle_enter() and
keyboard_handle_leave() as well as in handle_toplevel_config().
The render API replaced the opengl_cb API over 2 years ago. Since then,
the opengl_cb API was emulated on top of the render API. While it would
probably be reasonable to emulate these APIs until they're removed in an
eventual libmpv 2.0 bump, I have some non-technical reasons to disable
the API now.
The API stubs remain; they're needed for formal ABI compatibility.
If you encode to e.g. an audio-only format, then video is disabled
automatically. This also takes care of the very cryptic error message.
It says "[vo/lavc] codec for video not found". Sort of true, but
obscures the real problem if it's e.g. an audio-only format.
I don't see the point of this. Not doing it may defer an error to later.
That's OK? For now, it seems better to reduce the encoding internal API.
If someone can demonstrate that this is needed, I might reimplement it
in a different way.
Since this is a messy and fragile mechanism, I want it logged (even if
it's somewhat in conflict with the verbose logging policy). On the other
hand, it's unconditionally logged on every playloop iteration. So add
some nonsense to log it only on progress.
Just for the redundant message. The function which is called here,
ao_drain(), does not care in which state it is called, and already
handled this gracefully.
This replaces the two buffers (ao_chain.ao_buffer in the core, and
buffer_state.buffers in the AO) with a single queue. Instead of having a
byte based buffer, the queue is simply a list of audio frames, as output
by the decoder. This should make dataflow simpler and reduce copying.
It also attempts to simplify fill_audio_out_buffers(), the function I
always hated most, because it's full of subtle and buggy logic.
Unfortunately, I got assaulted by corner cases, dumb features (attempt
at seamless looping, really?), and other crap, so it got pretty
complicated again. fill_audio_out_buffers() is still full of subtle and
buggy logic. Maybe it got worse. On the other hand, maybe there really
is some progress. Who knows.
Originally, the data flow parts was meant to be in f_output_chain, but
due to tricky interactions with the playloop code, it's now in the dummy
filter in audio.c.
At least this improves the way the audio PTS is passed to the encoder in
encoding mode. Now it attempts to pass frames directly, along with the
pts, which should minimize timestamp problems. But to be honest, encoder
mode is one big kludge that shouldn't exist in this way.
This commit should be considered pre-alpha code. There are lots of bugs
still hiding.
This can happen if a file contains headers only, or if decoding of all
data failed, and such. Interestingly, it also happened when doing "mpv
--loop emptyfile.png", because demux_mf still detects file formats by
file extension.
In this situation, the player burned a lot of CPU by restarting playback
after doing nothing. Although such "degenerate" behavior can't be
avoided in all situations (what if you loop a file with 1 audio
sample?), detecting this seems to make sense.
For now, this actually decrements the loop count by 1, and then errors
out with a warning. Works for --loop and --ab-loop, while
--loop-playlist already avoids this situation with an existing
mechanism.
