Use char* for strings instead of bstr (data ptr + length pair). Matroska
actually (probably) allows "padding" strings with \0 bytes, so using
normal C strings instead of byte strings is more appropriate.
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.)
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).
This inserts an automatic conversion filter if a Matroska file is marked
as 3D (StereoMode element). The basic idea is similar to video rotation
and colorspace handling: the 3D mode is added as a property to the video
params. Depending on this property, a video filter can be inserted.
As of this commit, extending mp_image_params is actually completely
unnecessary - but the idea is that it will make it easier to integrate
with VOs supporting stereo 3D mogrification. Although vo_opengl does
support some stereo rendering, it didn't support the mode my sample file
used, so I'll leave that part for later.
Not that most mappings from Matroska mode to vf_stereo3d mode are
probably wrong, and some are missing.
Assuming that Matroska modes, and vf_stereo3d in modes, and out modes
are all the same might be an oversimplification - we'll see.
See issue #1045.
It seems that it was causing issues with certain perl setups (such as
the one on issue #549). It also turns out that it was not behaving correctly
(not all constants were being promoted to big nums as they should), so we
use explicit objects to derive the constants.
There were also precedence issues. I wonder if this even worked right to
begin with.
The 'double' path (8-byte floats) is untested, as I couldn't easily find
a file with such a field.
Closes#549.
file2string.pl and vdpau_functions.pl are direct ports.
matroska.py was reimplemented as the Parse::Matroska module in CPAN,
and matroska.pl was made a client of Parse::Matroska.
A copy of Parse::Matroska is included in TOOLS/lib, and matroska.pl
looks there first when trying to load the module.
osxbundle.py was not ported since I have no means to verify it.
Python is always available on OSX though, so there is no harm in
removing the check for it on configure.
