Make concat streams use the "worst" origin of its parts, which may or
may not be what makes sense. stream_memory has no natural way to do
this, so just add a vague comment.
mpv has a very weak and very annoying policy that determines whether a
playlist should be used or not. For example, if you play a remote
playlist, you usually don't want it to be able to read local filesystem
entries. (Although for a media player the impact is small I guess.)
It's weak and annoying as in that it does not prevent certain cases
which could be interpreted as bad in some cases, such as allowing
playlists on the local filesystem to reference remote URLs. It probably
barely makes sense, but we just want to exclude some other "definitely
not a good idea" things, all while playlists generally just work, so
whatever.
The policy is:
- from the command line anything is played
- local playlists can reference anything except "unsafe" streams
("unsafe" means special stream inputs like libavfilter graphs)
- remote playlists can reference only remote URLs
- things like "memory://" and archives are "transparent" to this
This commit does... something. It replaces the weird stream flags with a
slightly clearer "origin" value, which is now consequently passed down
and used everywhere. It fixes some deviations from the described policy.
I wanted to force archives to reference only content within them, but
this would probably have been more complicated (or required different
abstractions), and I'm too lazy to figure it out, so archives are now
"transparent" (playlists within archives behave the same outside).
There may be a lot of bugs in this.
This is unfortunately a very noisy commit because:
- every stream open call now needs to pass the origin
- so does every demuxer open call (=> params param. gets mandatory)
- most stream were changed to provide the "origin" value
- the origin value needed to be passed along in a lot of places
- I was too lazy to split the commit
Fixes: #7274
It was set, but its value was never used. The stream cache used to use
it, but it was removed. It controlled how much data it tried to read
from the underlying stream at once.
The user can now control the buffer size with --stream-buffer-size,
which achieves a similar effect, because the stream will in the common
case read half of the buffer size at once. In fact, the new default size
is 128KB, i.e. 64KB read size, which is as much as stream_file and
stream_cb requested by default. stream_memory requested more, but it
doesn't matter anyway. Only stream_smb set a larger size with 128KB.
Add yet another variant of the stream open function. This time, make it
so that it's possible to add new open parameters in an extendable way,
which should put an end to having to change this every other year.
Effectively get rid of the overly special stream_create_instance()
function and use the new one instead, which requires changes in
stream_concat.c and stream_memory.c. The function is still in private in
stream.c, but I preferred to make the mentioned users go through the new
function for orthogonality. The error handling (mostly logging) was
adjusted accordingly.
This should not have any functional changes. (To preempt any excuses, I
didn't actually test stream_concat and stream_memory.)
Instead of having to rely on the protocol matching, make a function that
creates a stream from a stream_info_t directly. Instead of going through
a weird indirection with STREAM_CTRL, add a direct argument for non-text
arguments to the open callback. Instead of creating a weird dummy
mpv_global, just pass an existing one from all callers. (The latter one
is just an artifact from the past, where mpv_global wasn't available
everywhere.)
Actually I just wanted a function that creates a stream without any of
that bullshit. This goal was slightly missed, since you still need this
heavy "constructor" just to setup a shitty struct with some shitty
callbacks.
The demuxer cache is the only cache now. Might need another change to
combat seeking failures in mp4 etc. The only bad thing is the loss of
cache-speed, which was sort of nice to have.
Parsing the texture data as raw strings makes the textures the most
portable and self-contained. In order to facilitate different types of
shaders, the parse_user_shader interaction has been changed to instead
have it loop through blocks and call the passed functions for each valid
block parsed. This is more modular and also cleaner, with better code
separation.
Closes#4586.
This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.
There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.
A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).
common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.
codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.
From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).
misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.
screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.
While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations
(it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write
section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only
when we really need.
For some reason, we support writeable streams. (Only encoding uses that,
and the use of it looks messy enough that I want to replace it with FILE
or avio today.)
It's a chaos: most streams do not actually check the mode parameter like
they should. Simplify it, and let streams signal availability of write
mode by setting a flag in the stream info struct.
Stop using it in most places, and prefer STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE. The
advantage is that always the correct size will be used. There can be no
doubt anymore whether the end_pos value is outdated (as it happens often
with files that are being downloaded).
Some streams still use end_pos. They don't change size, and it's easier
to emulate STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE using end_pos, instead of adding a
STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE implementation to these streams.
Make sure int64_t is always used for STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE (it was
uint64_t before).
Remove the seek flags mess, and replace them with a seekable flag. Every
stream must set it consistently now, and an assertion in stream.c checks
this. Don't distinguish between streams that can only be forward or
backwards seeked, since we have no such stream types.
The way the url_options field was handled was not entirely sane: it's
actually a flexible array member, so it points to garbage for streams
which do not initialize this member (it just points to the data right
after the struct, which is garbage in theory and practice). This was
not actually a problem, since the field is only used if priv_size is
set (due to how this stuff is used). But it doesn't allow setting
priv_size only, which might be useful in some cases.
Also, make the protocols array not a fixed size array. Most stream
implementations have only 1 protocol prefix, but stream_lavf.c has
over 10 (whitelists ffmpeg protocols). The high size of the fixed
size protocol array wastes space, and it is _still_ annoying to
add new prefixes to stream_lavf (have to bump the maximum length),
so make it arbitrary length.
The two changes (plus some more cosmetic changes) arte conflated into
one, because it was annoying going over all the stream implementations.
Move the URL parsing code from m_option.c to stream.c, and simplify it
dramatically. This code originates from times when http code used this,
but now it's just relict from other stream implementations reusing this
code. Remove the unused bits and simplify the rest.
stream_vcd is insane, and the priv struct is different on every
platform, so drop the URL parsing. This means you can't specify a track
anymore, only the device. (Does anyone use stream_vcd? Not like this
couldn't be fixed, but it doesn't seem worth the effort, especially
because it'd require potentially touching platform specific code.)
These were printed only with -v. Most streams had them set to useless
or redundant values, so it's just badly maintained bloat.
Since we remove the "author" field too, and since this may have
copyright implications, we add the contents of the author fields to
the file headers, except if the name is already part of the file header.
This removes the dependency on DEMUXER_TYPE_* and the file_format
parameter from the stream open functions.
Remove some of the playlist handling code. It looks like this was
needed only for loading linked mov files with demux_mov (which was
removed long ago).
Delete a minor bit of dead network-related code from stream.c as well.
