Until now, cache_read() (which calls read_buffer()) could return short
reads. This was a simplification allowed by the stream interface. But
for cache resizing, it will be more practical to make read_buffer() do
a full read.
Seems like a good idea. One possible bad effect would be slowing down
uncached controls, but they're already slow. The good thing is that
many controls make intrusive changes to the stream (at least controls
which do write accesses), so the cached parameters should be updated.
Some of these property implementations already send notifications on
their own, but most don't. This takes care of them.
Of course this still doesn't handle all propertry changes - this is
impossible without special-casing each property that can change on its
own.
This might be a good idea in order to prevent queuing a frame too far in
the future (causing apparent freezing of the video display), or dropping
an infinite number of frames (also apparent as freezing).
I think at this point this is most of what we can do if the vdpau time
source is unreliable (like with Mesa). There are still inherent race
conditions which can't be fixed.
The strange thing about this code was the shift parameter of the
prev_vs2 function. The parameter is used to handle timestamps before the
last vsync, since the % operator handles negative values incorrectly.
Most callers set shift to 0, and _usually_ pass a timestamp after the
last vsync. One caller sets it to 16, and can pass a timestamp before
the last timestamp.
The mystery is why prev_vs2 doesn't just compensate for the % operator
semantics in the most simple way: if the result of the operator is
negative, add the divisor to it. Instead, it adds a huge value to it
(how huge is influenced by shift). If shift is 0, the result of the
function will not be aligned to vsyncs.
I have no idea why it was written in this way. Were there concerns about
certain numeric overflows that could happen in the calculations? But I
can't think of any (the difference between ts and vc->recent_vsync_time
is usually not that huge). Or is there something more clever about it,
which is important for the timing code? I can't think of anything
either.
So scrap it and simplify it.
vo_vdpau used a somewhat complicated and fragile mechanism to convert
the vdpau time to internal mpv time. This was fragile as in it couldn't
deal well with Mesa's (apparently) random timestamps, which can change
the base offset in multiple situations. It can happen when moving the
mpv window to a different screen, and somehow it also happens when
pausing the player.
It seems this mechanism to synchronize the vdpau time is not actually
needed. There are only 2 places where sync_vdptime() is used (i.e.
returning the current vdpau time interpolated by system time).
The first call is for determining the PTS used to queue a frame. This
also uses convert_to_vdptime(). It's easily replaced by querying the
time directly, and adding the wait time to it (rel_pts_ns in the patch).
The second call is pretty odd: it updates the vdpau time a second time
in the same function. From what I can see, this can matter only if
update_presentation_queue_status() is very slow. I'm not sure what to
make out of this, because the call merely queries the presentation
queue. Just assume it isn't slow, and that we don't have to update the
time.
Another potential issue with this is that we call VdpPresentationQueueGetTime()
every frame now, instead of every 5 seconds and interpolating the other
calls via system time. More over, this is per video frame (which can be
portantially dropped, and not per actually displayed frame. Assume this
doesn't matter.
This simplifies the code, and should make it more robust on Mesa. But
note that what Mesa does is obviously insane - this is one situation
where you really need a stable time source. There are still plenty of
race condition windows where things can go wrong, although this commit
should drastically reduce the possibility of this.
In my tests, everything worked well. But I have no access to a Mesa
system with vdpau, so it needs testing by others.
See github issues #520, #694, #695.
This turned out ridiculously complex. I think it will have to be
simplified some day. Main reason for the complexity are:
- filtering properties by forcing clients to observe individual
properties explicitly
(to avoid spamming clients with changes they don't want)
- optional retrieval of property value with the notification
(the basic idea was that this is more user friendly)
- allowing to the client to specify a format in which the value
should be retrieved
(because if a property changes its type, the client API couldn't
convert it properly, and compatibility would break)
I don't know yet which of these are important, and everything could
change. In particular, the interface and semantics should be adjusted
to reduce the implementation complexity.
While I consider the API complete, there could (and probably will) be
bugs left. Also while the implementation is complete, it's inefficient.
The complexity of the property matching is O(a*b*c) with a clients,
b observed properties, and c properties changing at once. I threw away
an earlier implementation using bitmasks, because it was too unwieldy.
Remove the use of mp_ring and use a simple array and a bunch of
variables instead. This is way less awkwad.
The change in reserve_reply fixes incorrect tracking of free events.
Now they can be paused and resumed.
Since pausing and disabling the timer is essentially the same underlying
operation, we also just provide one method for it.
mp.cancel_timer probably still works, but I'm considering this
deprecated, and it's removed from the manpage. (We didn't have a release
with this function yet, so no formal deprecation.)
This commit adds support for automatic selection of color profiles based on
the display where mpv is initialized, and automatically changes the color
profile when display is changed or the profile itself is changed from
System Preferences.
@UliZappe was responsible with the testing and implementation of a lot of this
commit, including the original implementation of `cocoa_get_icc_profile_path`
(See #594).
Fixes#594
The --ass-styles option is implemented by calling ass_read_styles().
This function can take a codepage (so libass will use iconv to convert
it). This was implemented before our --subcp option was changed, and
this code was not updated. Now libass fails opening iconv, because
--subcp is not always (and not by default) a valid iconv codepage.
Just always pass NULL, which means the file passed to --ass-styles must
be in UTF-8. The --ass-styles option is a fringe option anyway (and will
destroy your subtitles), so having codepage support for it isn't
important at all.
Change the type of the property from a string list (alternating
key/value entries) to a map. Using the client API, this will return
MPV_FORMAT_NODE_MAP, while Lua mp.get_property_native returns a
dictionary-like table.
The function tag_property() in command.c passed a key action with empty
path to m_property_read_list. This is normally not valid, because key
actions are supposed to access sub-paths. But it's kind of inconvenient
to check for this case in tag_property(). So make it valid by providing
a m_property_unkey() function, which turns a key access to "" into a
top-level action.
We've just checked whether a sub-path started with "name/", but that
changes behavior whether the property name has a trailing '/' or not.
Using a helper function to split of path components avoids this problem.
Also fix a format string mistake in a log call using it.
I wonder if this code shouldn't use FormatMessage, but it looks kind
of involved [1], so: no, thanks.

There are two kind of encryption for Blu-ray disc, AACS and BD+,
and both of them can be checked through BLURAY_DISC_INFO object.
This commit makes the bluray and bdnav streams refuse playback
if AACS/BD+ is detected and decryption is failed.
This played the file at a wrong sample rate if the rate was out of
certain bounds.
A comment says this was for the sake of libaf/af_resample.c. This
resampler has been long removed. Our current resampler
(libav/swresample) checks supported sample rates on reconfiguration, and
will error out if a sample rate is not supported. And I think that is
the correct behavior.
