Remove wrapper properties for OSD and video position updates, use the
new mechanism for them. We can mark the options directly. Update
behavior will work for more options (since I've casually marked more
affected options than the old less direct mechanism covered).
My original idea was making mpv_initialize() a no-op, but it seems this
can't happen after all. The problem is especially with subtle
interactions in option parsing (basically all pre-parse options).
Instead, I might go into the opposite direction, and add a new API
function that takes over the role of mpv_create+mpv_initialize, and
which will take a list of options. This list will be for the purpose
of setting options that can be set only at initialization time (such
as config-dir). This would also make it more uniform with the command-
line player initialization.
Maybe.
In any case, for now revert parts of commit 453fea87 to remove the
initialization-related freedoms it added. Fortunately, this wasn't
released yet, so we remove it from the API as if it never happened.
(The rest of that commit is still fine, just not the additional
freedom.)
Move the MPV_LEAK_REPORT env query to mp_create(), where it will also be
used by the client API (it might be helpful, so why not). The same
applies to MPV_VERBOSE.
The prepare_playlist() call doesn't need to be in mp_initialize() and
can just be in mp_play_files() to reduce the size of mp_initialize().
Also, remove wakeup_playloop(), which is 100% redundant with
mp_wakeup_core_cb().
So client API users don't have to care about whether to set this before
or after mpv_initialize().
We still don't enable terminal at any point before mpv_initialize(),
because reasons.
This also subtly changes some behavior how terminal options are applied
while parsing. This essentially reverts the behavior as it was reported
in issue #2588. Originally, I was hoping to get rid of the pre-parse
option pass, but it seems this is absolutely not possible due to the way
config and command line parsing are entangled. Command line options take
priority over configfile options, so they have to be applied later - but
we also want to apply logging and terminal options as specified on the
command-line, but _before_ parsing the config files. It has to be this
way to see config file error messages on the terminal, or to hide them
if --no-terminal is used. libmpv considerations also factor into this.
Until now, the terminal thread always sent a quit command if the
terminal thread was torn down (whether it happened via terminal_uninit()
or a quit signal). This is not so good if we want to enable toggling
terminal use at runtime, since disabling the terminal would always make
the player quit. So we want terminal_uninit() not to send quit.
This can be easily fixed by using the "death byte" sent to the pipe used
for thread tear-down to indicate whether it was caused by a signal or
terminal_uninit().
Extend the flag-based notification mechanism that was used via
M_OPT_TERM. Make the vo_opengl update mechanism use this (which, btw.,
also fixes compilation with OpenGL renderers forcibly disabled).
While this adds a 3rd mechanism and just seems to further the chaos, I'd
rather have a very simple mechanism now, than actually furthering the
mess by mixing old and new update mechanisms. In particular, we'll be
able to remove quite some property implementations, and replace them
with much simpler update handling. The new update mechanism can also
more easily refactored once we have a final mechanism that handles
everything in an uniform way.
--quiet can be always set - the playloop checks it whenever rendering
the status line. Nothing special about it.
The ytdl- options are simply refetched by the Lua script every time a
stream is opened, so it makes sense to be able to change them at runtime
as well.
The VO options don't have a real reason to be marked with it anymore.
For audio files, this is identical to time-pos (except read-only).
For audio-video files, this returns the audio position. Unlike
time-pos, this is not quantized to a video frame.
For video-only files, this property is unavailable.
This was in the parser code all along. As far as I can tell, *cp was
intended. There is no need to check cp for NULL (nor does it make any
sense to do so every time around the loop) for AF_CONTROL_COMMAND.
However, s->matrixstr can be NULL, so checking for that separately is in
order.
For stereo and typical L/R-first channel arrangements, this avoids
undesirable phasing artifacts, especially obvious when speed is changed
and then reset. Without this, there is a very audible change in the
stereo field even when librubberband is no longer actually making any
speed changes.
Oops, this is kind of important, isn't it?
Stopped working for properties which don't implement
M_PROPERTY_GET_CONSTRICTED_TYPE directly, as do_action() goes to the
property directly, while m_property_do() does a fallback.
Some properties had a different type from their equivalent options (such
as mute, volume, deinterlace, edition). This wasn't really sane, as raw
option values should be always within their bounds. On the other hand,
these properties use a different type to reflect runtime limits (such as
range of available editions), or simply to improve the "UI" (you don't
want to cycle throuhg the completely useless "auto" value when cycling
the "mute" property).
Handle this by making them always return the option type, but also
allowing them to provide a "constricted" type, which is used for UI
purposes. All M_PROPERTY_GET_CONSTRICTED_TYPE changes are related to
this.
One consequence is that you can set the volume property to arbitrary
high values just like with the --volume option, but using the "add"
command it still restricts it to the --volume-max range.
Also deprecate --chapter, as it is grossly incompatible to the chapter
property. We pondered renaming it to --chapters, or introducing a more
powerful --range option, but concluded that --start --end is actually
enough.
These changes appear to take care of the last gross property/option
incompatibilities, although there might still be a few lurking.
For some odd reason, value ranges for the window-scale option and
property are different, and the property has a more narrow range. Change
it to the option range.
Also store the window-scale value into the option value when setting the
property, so it will be persistent if the window is closed and reopened.
Conflicts with the "playlist-pos" property. They're really a bit too
different, and since the --playlist-pos option is relatively new and
obscure, just rename it to get this out of the way.
Make the option type exactly the same as the underlying option's one. I
think this has no user-visible consequences, but makes more sense for
the option-property bridge.
These are not mapped as property, so the option-property bridge has to
skip them. Do this automatically if a property is not found. I know that
this affects --quiet and --really-quiet, but in theory there could be
more.
There was both user-agent and user_agent options, the former is deprecated in FFmpeg/FFmpeg@27714b462 master.
Libav uses both forms.
This avoids constant `[ffmpeg] http: the user-agent option is deprecated, please use user_agent option` warnings using ytdl_hook.
All option write accesses are now put through the property interface,
which means runtime option value verification and runtime updates are
applied. This is done even for command line arguments and config files.
This has many subtle and not-so-subtle consequences. The potential for
unintended and intended subtle or not-subtle behavior changes is very
large.
Architecturally, this is us literally jumping through hoops. It really
should work the other way around, with options being able to have
callbacks for value verification and applying runtime updates. But this
would require rewriting the entirety of command.c. This change is more
practical, and if anything will at least allow incremental changes.
Some options are too incompatible for this to work - these are excluded
with an explicit blacklist.
This change fixes many issues caused by the mismatch between properties
and options. For example, this fixes#3281.
There were multiple values under M_OPT_EXIT (M_OPT_EXIT-n for n>=0).
Somehow M_OPT_EXIT-n either meant error code n (with n==0 no error?), or
the number of option valus consumed (0 or 1). The latter is MPlayer
legacy, which left it to the option type parsers to determine whether an
option took a value or not. All of this was changed in mpv, by requiring
the user to use explicit syntax ("--opt=val" instead of "-opt val").
In any case, the n value wasn't even used (anymore), so rip this all
out. Now M_OPT_EXIT-1 doesn't mean anything, and could be used by a new
error code.
This makes m_config_set_option_raw() the function that is always called
on the lowest level (as leaf function for all other functions).
To do this, m_config_parse_option() has to do something special to deal
with "impure" options like --vf-add, which work on the previous option
value, instead of fully replacing it. m_config_set_option_raw() itself
always completely replaced the previous value.
This meant "cannot be used as per-file option" (wrt. playlist items).
Doesn't make too much sense anymore, especially given how obscure
per-file options are.
This _actually_ does what commit 8716c2e8 promised, and gives a slight
performance improvement for client API users which make a lot of
requests (like reading properties).
The main issue was that mp_dispatch_lock() (which client.c uses to get
exclusive access to the core) still called the wakeup callback, which
made mp_dispatch_queue_process() exit. So the playloop got executed
again, and since it does a lot of stuff, performance could be reduced.
If --blend-subtitles=yes is given, vo_opengl will call osd_draw()
multiple times, once for subtitles, and once for OSD. This meant that
the want_redraw flag was reset before the OSD was rendered, which in
turn meant that update_osd() was never called. It seems like removing
the per-OSD object want_redraw wasn't such a good idea. Fix it by
reintroducing such a flag for OSDTYPE_OSD only.
Also, the want_redraw flag is now unused, so kill it.
Another regression caused by commit 9c9cf125. Fixes#3535.
If we were waiting, and then exiting due to timeout, we still have to
recheck the condition protected by the condition variable/mutex in order
to get back to a consistent state. In this case, the queue was locked
with mp_dispatch_lock(), and mp_dispatch_queue_process() got to return
without waiting for unlock.
Also caused commit 8716c2e8. Probably an argument for replacing the
dispatch queue by a simple mutex.
Negative height is used to signal a flipped framebuffer. There's
absolutely no reason to pass this down to overlay_adjust(), and only
requires implementers to deal with an additional special-case.
Instead of using input_ctx for waiting, use the dispatch queue directly.
One big change is that the dispatch queue will just process commands
that come in (e.g. from client API) without returning. This should
reduce unnecessary playloop excutions (which is good since the playloop
got a bit fat from rechecking a lot of conditions every iteration).
Since this doesn't force a new playloop iteration on every access, this
has to be enforced manually in some cases.
Normal input (via terminal or VO window) still wakes up the playloop
every time, though that's not too important. It makes testing this
harder, though. If there are missing wakeup calls, it will be noticed
only when using the client API in some form.
At this point we could probably use a normal lock instead of the
dispatch queue stuff.
They're useless, and I have no idea what they're actually supposed to do
(wrt. pending input processing changes).
Also remove their implicit uses from the IPC handlers.
This does 3 kinds of changes:
- change sleeptime=x to mp_set_timeout()
- change sleeptime=0 to mp_wakeup_core() calls (to be more explicit)
- change commands etc. to call mp_wakeup_core() if they do changes that
require the playloop to be rerun
This is preparation for the following changes. The goal is to process
client API requests without having to rerun the playloop every time. As
of this commit, the changes should not change behavior. In particular,
the playloop is still implicitly woken up on every command.
Currently, calling mp_input_wakeup() will wake up the core thread (also
called the playloop). This seems odd, but currently the core indeed
calls mp_input_wait() when it has nothing more to do. It's done this way
because MPlayer used input_ctx as central "mainloop".
This is probably going to change. Remove direct calls to this function,
and replace it with mp_wakeup_core() calls. ao and vo are changed to use
opaque callbacks and not use input_ctx for this purpose. Other code
already uses opaque callbacks, or has legitimate reasons to use
input_ctx directly (such as sending actual user input).
This could in theory lead to missed updates if subtitles were switched
or external OSD overlays (via overlay-add) were updated. While the
change IDs of each of those were consistent, switching between two
separate OSD sources is not, and we have to explicitly trigger a change.
Regression since commit 9c9cf125. The new code is actually better,
because we do exactly what is needed, and don't just mess with the
update ID for libass-based OSD.
'cuda-gl' isn't right - you can turn this on without any GL and
get some non-zero benefit (with the cuda-copy hwaccel). So
'cuda-hwaccel' seems more consistent with everything else.
When playing audio-only, and changing the audio output device, playback
froze until the next time the playback core happened to wakeup (like
moving the mouse, or OSD redrawing). This is probably because of the
awful statemachine in fill_audio_out_buffers() - just make it recreate
the AO directly instead.
Remove the per-part force_redraw flags, and instead make the difference
between flagging dirty state and returning it to the player frontend
more explicit. The big issue is that 1. the OSD needs to know the dirty
state, and it should be cleared strictly when it is re-rendered
(force_redraw flag), and 2. the player core needs to be notified once,
and the notification must be reset (want_redraw flag).
The call in loadfile.c is replaced by making osd_set_sub() set the
change flag. Increasing the change flag on dirty state (the force_redraw
check in render_object()) should not be needed, because OSD part
renderers set it correctly (at least now).
Doing this just because someone pointed this out.
This also lets you just do "mpv --hwdec file.mkv", with the minor caveat
that the legacy syntax "--hwdec val" or "-hwdec val" (without "=") does
not work as expected anymore.
The previous commit merely copied the profile string to a file (plus
changing how RPI-specific defaults are initialized), now make some
changes on top of it. In particular, remove the --input-lirc option,
which was removed a long time ago, but forgotten from the libmpv
profile.
Move the embedded string with the builtin profiles to a separate
builtin.conf file. This makes it easier to read and edit, and you can
also check it for errors with --include=etc/builtin.conf. (Normally
errors are hidden intentionally, because there's no way to output error
messages this early, and because some options might not be present on
all platforms or with all configurations.)
Just wow. This function is implemented in ipc-win.c, and was surely be
meant to be called. But it wasn't called. This could in theory cause
crashes during exit if IPC clients were active.
Untested whether it really works.
