This was in the "Window" section. It has absolutely nothing to do with
windows. Move it to the "Miscellaneous" section instead. The "--mc"
option, which has a similar function, was already there.
Fixes PNG cover art not showing up immediately (for example when running
with --pause).
libavformat exports embedded cover art as a single packet. For example,
a PNG attachment simply contains the PNG image, which can be sent to the
decoder. Normally you would expect that the PNG decoder would return 1
frame for 1 packet, without any delays. But this stopped working, and it
incurs a 1 frame delay.
This is perfectly legal (even if unexpected), so let our code feed the
decoder packets until we get something back. (In theory feeding the
packet instead of a real flush packet is still somewhat questionable.)
last_av_difference can be MP_NOPTS_VALUE under certain circumstances
(like no video timestamp yet). This triggered the desync message,
because fabs(MP_NOPTS_VALUE) is quite a large value. We don't want to
show a message in this situation.
The build failed because rst2pdf apparently has problems with
page breaks. In this case, the link to the ALSA upmix guide was
causing a page break in an admonition block. My guess is that
rst2pdf screws up when it can’t fill at least one line of text
following a page break, so I worked around this by making that
paragraph a little longer. Seems to do the trick.
I also shortened the URL using GitHub’s service because it was
causing some rather unsightly formatting in the manpage output.
Maybe we should just build HTML instead of a PDF.
Since joystick support was removed and is a difference from mplayer, it
should be included in the document with the mplayer changes.
It will help new users who were using mplayer's joystick support to
seek alternatives when switching to mpv. It will also be helpful for
people that had problems with the joystick support in mplayer (for
example, by incorrectly recognizing other input devices as joystick)
to know that those problems won't persist in mpv.
MP_IMGFIELD_TOP/MP_IMGFIELD_BOTTOM were completely unused, and
MP_IMGFIELD_ORDERED was always set (even though vf_vdpaupp.c strangely
checked for the latter).
This was traditionally needed to silence terminal output from errors
during command line parsing preparsing. Preparsing is done so that
options controlling the terminal and config files are parsed and applied
first, with a second command line parsing pass applying all other
options, _and_ printing error messages for the preparsed ones.
But the hack silencing log output during the preparse pass is actually
not needed anymore, since the terminal is enabled only after preparsing
is finished. update_logging() in main.c does this.
So as long as update_logging() is called before
m_config_preparse_command_line(), this will work.
The options don't change, but they're now declared and used privately by
demux_mkv.c. This also brings with it a minor refactor of the subpreroll
seek handling - merge the code from playloop.c into demux_mkv.c. The
change in demux.c is pretty much equivalent as well.
This change allows forward seeking even if there are no more video
keyframes in forward direction. This helps with files that e.g. encode
cover art as a single video frame (within a _real_ video stream - ffmpeg
seems to like to produce such files). Seeking backwards will still jump
to the nearest video frame, so this improvement has limited use.
The old code didn't do this because of the logic the min_diff variable
followed. Instead of somehow using the timestamp of the last packet read
for min_diff, use the first index entry for it. This actually makes it
fall back to the first/last index entry as the (removed) comment claims.
Note that last_pts is basically random at this point (because the
demuxer can be far ahead of playback position), so this didn't make
sense in the first place.
An approximate measure to make it exit possibly slightly earlier.
Relatively speaking, some time will pass between cancellation and
the cache actually being requested to exit, so it's good if the
cache returns EOF immediately.
The caller can check for cache interruption instead. There's no need to
define special return values and such. It would be rather hard to make
waiting for the condition and stream cancellation atomic too (and
pointless, since the underlying stream will also be "cancelled" and exit
early), so nothing about cancellation being a separate call will change.
This put some effort into distinguishing between two messages to print -
all worthless. Even more so, this kept printing the message, which
doesn't feel overly useful either. (The message will be printed
repeatedly anyway if network recovers for a while and then gets stuck
again.)
All in all, the demuxer cache triggering the buffering state does a
better job here. But don't remove it completely, since knowing that the
network did nothing for a relatively short time is still useful.
It's annoying and unnecessary. They can be manually loaded if really
needed (for things like previewing).
Also remove the #if. It was for suppressing warnings, and we don't need
to be so careful about this in the relatively obscure encoding mode.
Approximate time of video buffered in the demuxer, in seconds. Same as
`demuxer-cache-duration` but returns the last timestamp of bufferred
data in demuxer.

If user switched terminals frantically, mpv could get SIGUSR1 twice in a
row, which, up until now, resulted in destroying CRTC twice. This caused
it to segfault. After this fix, double SIGUSR1 should be ignored.
This will be used in the following commit, which adds screenshot_raw.
The reasoning is that this will be better for binding scripting
languages.
One could special-case the screenshot_raw commit and define fixed
semantics for passing through a pointer using the current API, like
formatting a pointer as string. But that would be ridiculous and
unclean.
On EOF, this stopped reporting the actual cache duration, and just
signalled unknown duration. Fix this and keep reporting whatever is left
in the packet queue.
This reverts commit 5438a8b3. The commit doesn't give a good explanation
as to why it is needed, but I guess it was because the reporting was
imperfect (it switched between unknown or 0, and the correct duration).
This also removes a line added in commit 848546f2. The line is
ds->active = false;
The "active" flag basically says that data from this stream is actively
needed, and it's used to calculate the minimum data that can actually be
played (approximately). If this were ignored, a sparse subtitle stream
would set the cache duration to 0s. The commit message adding the line
says "actually does nothing, but in theory it's cleaner". Well, screw
it.
Vapoursynth made an incompatible API change: clips with unknown length
are not supported anymore. In fact, Vapoursynth abort()s the program
(which by the way invalidate all of its claims of API/ABI stability).
So add some nonsense to make it work again.
Remove the old implementation for these properties. It was never very
good, often returned very innaccurate values or just 0, and was static
even if the source was variable bitrate. Replace it with the
implementation of "packet-video-bitrate". Mark the "packet-..."
properties as deprecated. (The effective difference is different
formatting, and returning the raw value in bits instead of kilobits.)
Also extend the documentation a little.
It appears at least some decoders (sipr?) need the
AVCodecContext.bit_rate field set, so this one is still passed through.
This prevents the machine from going to sleep while a video-only stream
is playing. When audio is playing, the audio stack should make this
request for us.
