The --flip option flipped the image upside-down, by trying to use VO
support, or if not available, by inserting a video filter. I'm not sure
why it existed. Maybe it was important in ancient times when VfW based
decoders output an image this way (but even then, flipping an image is a
free operation by negating the stride).
One nice thing about this is that it provided a possible path for
implementing video orientation, which is a feature we should probably
support eventually. The important part is that it would be for free for
VOs that support it, and would work even with hardware decoding.
But for now get rid of it. It's useless, trivial, stands in the way, and
supporting video orientation would require solving other problems first.
In particular, this disables mpeg4. There are some files out there that
use GMC, a usually rarely used and ineffective feature, which is not
supported by most hardware decoders. In these cases the hw decoder
outputs garbage, while software decoding works perfectly fine. We can't
really fallback to software decoding in these cases, because we don't
know that something is wrong in the first place. I can't see any
advantages of hw decoding of mpeg4, so it's better to disable it.
Apparently this stopped working after some planar changes (broken format
negotiation). Radically change option parsing in an incompatible way.
Suggest alternatives to this filter, since it barely has any importance
anymore.
Don't bother explaining the sample format naming schema. The "ne" bit is
outdated anyway, and anyone who has to use this option will be able to
understand the naming schema just by looking at the names too.
vf_stereo3d now uses vf_lavfi, if mpv was compiled with libavfilter.
vf_swapuv is hereby undeprecated. It's too trivial to wrap it with
libavfilter, and it's also too useless that even typing this commit
message is not really worth the time to spend on it.
Just in case someone expects these are unchanged just because they're
not mentioned in changes.rst anywhere. Documenting all of these changes
would be too much work and not helpful either.
Mostly backwards compatible, we don't change much because we just want
to get rid of the legacy option string handling.
You can't pass an aspect as first argument anymore.
Apparently you can get this with: stereo3d=ab[2]{l,r}:sbs[2]{l,r}
So it seems the filter is redundant and can be removed.
Also see FFmpeg commit 2f11aa141a01.
Unfortunately, this forces filtering both luma and chroma, because
otherwise we'd have to deal with libavfilter's vf_noise weird handling
of YUV vs. RGB formats. Would we e.g. filter luma only, it would filter
red in RGB mode only, because it goes by component and there's no way to
distinguish YUV and RGB by just using the filter's options.
Also remove the ability to disable deinterlacing at runtime. You can
still disable deinterlacing at runtime by using the ``D`` key and its
automatical filter insertion/removal.
This will allow old filter to run libavfilter instead by calling
vf_lw_set_graph(), which turns the filter into a wrapper, using a given
libavfilter graph.
Later commits use that to automatically "reroute" a bunch of filters to
libavfilter. We want to get rid of the old MPlayer filter code, because
it's bad an unmaintained, but we still don't want to force everyone to
use vf_lavfi, so this solution will do for a while.
mpv was hardcoded to always consider the right Alt key as Alt Gr, but there
are parituclar combinations of platforms and keyboard layouts where it's more
convenient to treat the right Alt as a keyboard modifier just like the left
one.
Fixes#388
This allows vo_opengl to use GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE textures, either by
enabling it with the 'rectangle-textures' sub-option, or by having a
hwdec backend force it. By default it's off.
The _only_ reason we're adding this is because VDA can export rectangle
textures only.
There are some use cases for this. For example, you can use it to set
defaults of automatically inserted filters (like af_lavrresample). It's
also useful if you have a non-trivial VO configuration, and want to use
--vo to quickly change between the drivers without repeating the whole
configuration in the --vo argument.
See the changes in input.rst for explanations.
Technically speaking, this also gets rid of some undefined behavior:
passing NULL as a vararg (execl()) is always a bug.
This partially reverts commit 7d152965. It turns out that at least some
ALSA drivers (at least snd-hda-intel) report incorrect audio delay with
non-native sample rates, even if the sample rate is only very slightly
different from the native one.
For example, 48000Hz is fine on my hda-intel system, while both 8000Hz
and 47999Hz lead to a delay off by 40ms (according to mpv's A/V
difference display), which suggests that something in ALSA is
calculating the delay using the wrong sample rate.
As an additional problem, with ALSA resampling enabled, using
48001Hz/float/2ch fails, while 49000Hz/float/2ch or 48001Hz/s16/2ch
work. With resampling disabled, all these cases work obviously, because
our own resampler doesn't just refuse any of these formats.
Since some people want to use the ALSA resampler (because it's highly
configurable, supports multiple backends, etc.), we still allow enabling
ALSA resampling with an ao_alsa suboption.
It appears PTS sorting was useful only for avi files (and VfW-muxed
mkv). Maybe it was historically also important for decoders with broken
or non-existent PTS reordering (win32 codecs?). But now that we handle
demuxers which outputs DTS only correctly, it just seems dead weight.
Disable it by default. The --pts-association-mode option is now forced
to always use the decoder's PTS value. You can still enable the old
default (auto) or force sorting. But we will probably remove this option
entirely at some point.
Make demux_mkv export timestamps at DTS when it's in VfW mode. This is
needed to get correct timestamps with the new default mode. demux_lavf
already does that.
This was needed to determine PTS from DTS, but the previous commits
make it unnecessary.
The builtin genpts hack was used for DVD, because libavformat's genpts
essentially went amok on DVD timestamp resets. See commit 65d87091 for
details.
This drops the --pp option, which was probably broken for a while. The
option automatically inserted the "pp" filter. The value passed to it
was ignored (which is probably broken, it always selected maximal
quality).
Inserting this filter can be done simply with --vf=pp, so this is not
needed anymore.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
This was forgotten when the parser for mplayer2 EDL files was removed.
Change the header of the mpv EDL format to include a '#', so a naive
parser could skip the header as comment. (Maybe this is questionable;
on the other hand, if it can be simpler, why not.)
Also, strip the header in demux_edl.c before passing on the data, so the
header check doesn't need to be duplicated in tl_mpv_edl.c.
