Well, whatever. Only results in an error message being printed, because
there is no other error reporting mechanism, and the general policy is
to keep trying with the rest of the data (i.e. not report EOF).
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.
Accepting ":" in addition to "," seems confusing and dumb. It only
causing problems when you want to pass a value that contains ":". Remove
support for ":", it is now treated like any other normal character. This
affects all options that are listed as "Key/value list" in the option
list.
It's possible that this breaks for someone who happened to use ":" as
separator. But this was undocumented, and never recommended. Originally,
the option treated many other characters in a special way, but this was
changed in commit a3d561f950. I'm, not sure why ":" was explicitly
included. Maybe because -the absurd -vf/--af syntax uses ":" as list
separator. But "," was always recommended and used in examples for
key/value options.
Fixes: #8021 (if you consider it a bug)
this fixes some race condition where the content of the layer wasn't
updated because the size didn't changed and the layer was already marked
as updated. just force an update on reconfig.

this is preparation for new backends. currently this is done via the
libmpv API but for future new new VOs not based on libmpv we need these
VOCTRL events.
remove the libmpv observer for the macOS specific options and use a
config cache + change callback for runtime changes. this is also a
preparation for new backends and generalises even more, since libmpv
functions can't and shouldn't be used in usual vo backends. for feature
parity the config cache is used.
move all backend independent code parts in their own folder and files,
to simplify adding new backends. the goal is to only extend one class
and add the backend dependent parts there. usually only the (un)init,
config and related parts need to be implemented per backend. furthermore
all needed windowing and related events are propagated and can be
overwritten. the other backend dependent part is usually the surface for
rendering, for example the opengl oder metal layer.
in the best case a new backend can be added with only a few hundred
lines.
The software rendering API makes libswscale directly write into supplied
user memory. As such, weird memory corruption bugs on non-optimal buffer
configurations are exposed to the user.
It was possible for sway to get incorrectly sized borders if you resized
the mpv window in a creative manner (e.g. open a video in a non-floating
mode, set window scale to 2, then float it and witness wrong border
sizes). This is possibly a sway bug (Plasma doesn't have these border
issues at least), but there's a reasonable workaround for this.
The reason for the incorrect border size is because it is possible for
mpv to ignore the width/height from the toplevel listener and set its
own size. This new size can differ from what sway/wlroots believes the
size is which is what causes the sever side decorations to be drawn on
incorrect dimensions.
A simple trick is to just explicitly commit the surface after a resize
is performed. This is only done if mpv is not fullscreened or maximized
since we always obey the compositor widths/heights in those cases.
Sending the commit signals the compositor of the new change in the
surface and thus sway/wlroots updates its internal coordinates
appropriately and borders are no longer broken.
This allows users to control whether full dialogue subtitles are displayed
with an audio track already in their preferred subtitle language.
Additionally, this improves handling for the forced flag, automatically
selecting between forced and unforced subtitle streams based on the user's
settings and the selected audio.
The original goal was to simplify all this logic to make it less fragile
and breaky. Unfortunately, that didn't exactly happen and things might
actually be more complicated in some ways (well in other ways it's
simplier). There's a lot of negotiation back and forth between the
client and the compositor regarding sizes. The client (aka mpv) can do a
resize on its own. But also the compositor can request its own resize
(which we should be nice and listen to of course). The older method had
a lot of breakfalls/edgecases that were gradually patched up as time
went on, but that approach is really fragile. This refactor should,
hopefully, be on a more solid foundation.
Don't call any of the xdg toplevel state changing functions
(fullscreen, maximized, etc.) directly. Use the toggle wrapper
functions. These signal that the state was changed which is later
handled in the toplevel listener.
Introduce a new vdparams variable that stores the actual dimensions of
the video. This does create some new (but neccesary) complexity.
wl->vdparams stores what the actual dimensions of the video are
(according to mpv). wl->window_size stores the last size of the window
(so it includes any manual resizes for instance). wl->geometry is the
actual size of the output that gets displayed on the screen.
Add support for reading a byte range from a stream via
the `slice://` protocol.
Syntax is `slice://start[-end]@URL` where end is a maximum
(read until end or eof).
Size suffixes support in `m_option` is reused so they can
be used with start/end.
This can be very useful with e.g. large MPEGTS streams with
corruption or time-stamp jumps or other issues in them.

We've had some serious issues with GNOME in the past, but since then
their compositor has undergone some major internal improvements. The
most severe one [1], random vsync spikes and mistimed frames, can no
longer be reproduced by the original author of the issue. There are some
minor UI-related things (lack of window decorations for instance since
there is no xdg-decoration support), but users don't seem to complain
about that too much and they aren't revelant to playback.
3.38 isn't out quite yet, but that should also fix playback issues when
on a multimonitor setup (the fix is in the master branch at the moment).
In terms of playback, the only real concerning issue is the lack of idle
inhibit so a warning is still displayed. But GNOME has their own
workaround that users can use for that so if anyone happens to complain,
we can just point them to that.

When using presentation time, we have to be sure to update the ust when
no presentation events are received to make sure playback is still
smooth and in sync. Part of the recent presentation time refactor was to
use the presentation discarded event to signal that the window is
hidden. Evidently, this doesn't work the same everywhere for whatever
reason (drivers?? hardware??) and at least one user experienced issues
with playback getting out of sync since (presumably) the discarded event
didn't occur when hiding the window. Instead, let's just go back to the
old way of checking if the last_ust is equal to the ust value of the
last member in the wayland sync queue. Fixes#8010.
The motivation for this change was a segfault caused by e107342 which
has complicated reasons for occuring (i.e. I'm not 100% sure but I think
it is a really weird race). The major part of this commit is moving the
initialization of presentation listener to the frame_callback function.
Calling it in swap_buffers worked fine but in practice it meant a lot of
meaningless function calls if a window was hidden (the presentation
would just be immediately discarded). By calling it in frame_callback,
we ensure the listener is only created when it is possible to receive a
presentation event.
Of course calling the presentation listener in feedback_presented or
feedback_discarded was considered, but ultimately these events are too
slow. Receiving the ust/msc/sbc triplet here and then passing it to mpv
results in higher vsync judder since there is (likely) not enough time
before the next pageflip. By design, the frame callback is meant to give
us as much time as possible before the next repaint so calling it here
is probably optimal.
Additionally, we can make better use of the feedback_discarded event.
The wp_presentation_feedback should not be destroyed here. It will be
taken care of either when we get feedback again or when the player
quits. Instead what we can do is set a bool that tells wayland_sync_swap
to update itself based on mp_time delta. In practice, the result is not
any different than before, but it should be more understandable what is
going on now.
Of course, the segfault mentioned at the beginning is fixed with this as
well.
lua/js utils.get_env_list() uses `environ' which was ANSI, thus
it broke any unicode names/values.
mpv already has an internal utf8_environ for win32, but it's used
only at the getenv(..) wrapper and not exposed in itself, and also it
has lazy initialization - on first getenv() call.
Now `environ' maps to a function which ensures initialization while
keeping it an l-value (like posix expects).
The cost of this fuglyness is that files should include osdep/io.h
(which now declares environ as extern) rather than declaring it
themselves, or else the build will break on mingw.
This was a vague idea how to handle passing byte arrays from Lua to the
mpv command interface in a somewhat reasonable way. The idea was
cancelled, but leave the Lua part of it, since it might get useful
later, and prevents passing (and silently cutting off) such byte
strings.
Barely tested, let's say not tested at all.
Make it possible to feed a string to stdin of a subprocess. Out of
laziness, it can't be an arbitrary byte string. (Would require adding an
option type that takes in a Lua byte string.)
Do not set stdin of a subprocess to fd 0 (i.e. mpv's stdin) anymore,
because it makes things more consistent. Enabling stdin didn't make too
much sense in the first place, so this behavior change seems
justifiable.
win32 support missing.
Fixes: #8003
Such files violate the specification. Unfortunately, I could not test
whether it really works correctly, since I don't have a sample at hand
that is not broken in this regard.
Nothing major but it's technically possible for the
wp_presentation_feedback struct to still be allocated when quitting the
player. Just destroy it if it exists like all of the other wayland
objects.
In a playlist of videos with different sizes, going to the next video
would not properly resize the window. This actually broke way back in
7170910 (oops), but somehow nobody ever complained. The fix is simple.
If a window isn't maximized, be sure to set the window geometry again.
Just some small changes when creating the xdg_surface. Don't set the
toplevel title (or app id) in create_xdg_surface anymore because it's
entirely pointless. Also make it possible for create_xdg_surface to
return something other than 0 so the error checking is somewhat
meaningful. It's not really clear if these xdg functions can even fail
in the first place (perhaps some weird proxy marshalling crap could
possibly go wrong somehow), but it can't hurt. Note that all app id
stuff has been removed (temporarily) in this commit. See the next commit
which adds it back in.
The subtitle list is returned in randomized order, because a table (i.e.
JSON object) is used. To make the order stable across repeated
invocations, sort it by language.
This was incorrect, and grossly misleading. It created the impression
that the buffer is passed to mpv_render_context_create(), instead of
mpv_render_context__render().
(The recommendation is to add the document to the project git root, but
I'm against dumping such things into git. I'd rather replace the
Copyright full text files with links and move contribute.md to the wiki
than add the CCoC text as a file.)
Seems like this is requested all the time.
It seems libass allows out of range values, but does allows the subtitle
to go out of the screen at the bottom (only when moving it to the top
it's "clamped"). Too bad, don't do that then. The bitmap sub rendering
code on the other hand is under our control, and will not move a
subtitle out of the screen.
Fixes: #7986
Options like --sub-ass-force-style and others could not be changed at
runtime (the changes didn't take any effect). Fix this by using the
brutal approach, and completely reinit the subtitle state when this
happens. Maybe a bit clunky, but for now I'd rather not put more effort
into this.
Fixes: #7689
Requested. Should be good for simple use cases. "sub2" is technically
inconsistent (since the option is called --secondary-sid), but fuck the
consistent name.
The same was done to matroska.py before, so at least it's consistent.
Doesn't matter for waf, because it imports this script (rather than
executing it).
This sets the activeCodePage property in the manifest, which forces the
ANSI code page to be UTF-8 in Windows 10 1903 and up. It shouldn't make
a difference for mpv itself, since mpv already uses the wide-char APIs
for most functions, however some of mpv's dependencies, such as Lua,
rely on the ANSI codepage. Hence this change enables support for Unicode
file names in Lua's I/O library.
Thanks @avih for finding this property.

FFmpeg expects those fields to be set on the AVFrame when
encoding audio, not doing so will cause the avcodec_send_frame
call to return EINVAL (at least in recent builds).
Uses the mechanism introduced in the previous commit. The hope was to
make auto-profiles easier to use, and to get rid of the need for
manually created inverse profiles. Not sure if the end result is useful.
Make it possible to restore from profiles by backing up the option
values before profile application. This is sort of like unapplying a
profile. Since there might be multiple ways to do this, a profile needs
to explicitly provide the "profile-restore" option, which specifies how
exactly this should be done.
This is a big mess. There is not natural way to do this. Profile
application is "destructive" and simply changes the values of the
options. Maybe one could argue that the option system should have
hierarchical "overlays" of profiles instead, where unset options will
use the value of the lower profiles. Options set interactively by the
user would be the top profile. Default values would be in the lowest
profile. You could unapply a profile by simply removing it from this
overlay stack.
But uh, let's not, so here's something stupid. It reuses some code used
for file local options to reduce code size. At least the overlay idea
would still be possible in theory, and could be added as another
profile-restore mode.
This is used by the following commit.
The callback now gets an object argument with defer/cont functions.
Like the lua code, the behavior is that each hook event allows at
most one continue, but nothing enforces the order of continuations
if more hook events arrive before prior ones were continued - which
is possible now with the defer option, but wasn't possible before
(continuation was synchronous from the hook event handler).
The property observation mechanism is fairly asynchronous to the player
core, and Lua scripts also are (they run in a separate thread). This may
sometimes lead to profiles being applied when it's too load.
For example, you may want to change network options depending on the
input URL - but most of these options would have to be set before the
HTTP access is made. But it could happen that the profile, and thus the
option, was applied at an slightly but arbitrary later time.
This is generally not fixable. But for the most important use-cases,
such as applying changes before media opening or playback
initialization, we can use some of the defined hooks.
Hooks make it synchronous again, by allowing API users (such as scripts)
to block the core because it continues with loading.
For this we simply don't continue a given hook, until we receive an idle
event, and have applied all changes. The idle event is in general used
to wait for property change notifications to settle down. Some of this
relies on the subtle ways guarantees are (maybe) given. See commit
ba70b150fb for the messy details. I'm not quite sure whether it
actually works, because I can't be bothered to read and understand my
bullshit from half a year ago. Should provide at least some improvement,
though.
This can now opt to not continue a hook after the hook callback returns.
This makes it easier for scripts, and may make it unnecessary to run
reentrant event loops etc. for scripts that want to wait before
continuing while still running the event loop.
This is taken from a somewhat older proof-of-concept script. The basic
idea, and most of the implementation, is still the same. The way the
profiles are actually defined changed.
I still feel bad about this being a Lua script, and running user
expressions as Lua code in a vaguely defined environment, but I guess as
far as balance of effort/maintenance/results goes, this is fine.
It's a bit bloated (the Lua scripting state is at least 150KB or so in
total), so in order to enable this by default, I decided it should
unload itself by default if no auto-profiles are used. (And currently,
it does not actually rescan the profile list if a new config file is
loaded some time later, so the script would do nothing anyway if no auto
profiles were defined.)
This still requires defining inverse profiles for "unapplying" a
profile. Also this is still somewhat racy. Both will probably be
alleviated to some degree in the future.
