The "auto" logic is vastly better than setting a specific size. This
option amounts to "allow users to shoot themselves in the foot" flag,
given that the vast majority of ICC profiles in the wild are fine on
17x17x17 or even smaller 3DLUTs.
Setting stupidly high --3dlut-size is the main source of ICC-related
slow startup issues, and there is absolutely no conceivably benefit to
going above the defaults except for pixel peeping and chasing tiny PSNR
increments.
D3D11 is actually the main platform that suffers from slow shader
compilation, typical Vulkan/GL drivers are either very fast to begin
with, or already internally cache.
Display aspect ratio (aspect) and pixel aspect ratio (par) are already
exported, but storage aspect ratio (sar) isn't. This value is needed to
display the storage aspect ratio for non-square pixel sources in stats.lua.
This exports two new properties: video-params/sar and video-params/sar-name.
Docmentation is updated accordingly.
Stretch a subtitle duration so it ends when the next one starts.
Should help with subtitles which erroneously have zero durations.
I found such a subrip substitles stream in the wild.

There's some geometry-related things that mpv has to calculate before
the window is actually mapped onto the screen in wayland. But there's no
way to know which output the window will end up on before it happens, so
it's possible to calculate it using the wrong values. mpv corrects
itself later when the surface event happens, but making the initial
guess work better can help in certain cases.
find_output is the only thing that needs to be changed here. Its main
purpose is to grab the right output based on user settings when we're
trying to full screen and giving a fallback in case we don't have
wl->current_output yet. The x11 code already does something similar, so
we're basically just copying it. Allow user settings like --screen and
--screen-name to influence the initial wl_output guess. Those options
won't actually place the window on that specific screen since we can't
do that in wayland, but if the user knows where the window will end up
beforehand it makes sense to listen to the arguments they pass. If
something goes wrong, then we just fallback to 0 like before.
currently hysteresis-secs only works when the demuxer-max-bytes fills
up. but it's possible for the cache-secs/demuxer-readahead-secs to be
reached first.
in those cases, hysteresis-secs doesn't work and keeps buffering
non-stop. but the goal of this option was to save power by avoiding
non-stop buffering so go ahead and make it respect cache-secs as well.
additionally remove some redundant repetition from the docs.
5f74ed5828 deprecated this many years ago.
The utility is questionable at best given that -remove exists and is
more natural to use. Free up some code and drop it.
The MPV_LEAK_REPORT environment variable was previously read in order to
determine whether or not to enable memory reporting for javascript
scripts. This is kind of weird and deviates from the norm of exposing an
option to the user. So let's just add --js-memory-report and disable it
by default instead.
--play-dir sounds like it has something to do with directories so change
it. The play_dir variable is used a bunch everywhere internally so
whatever just leave it alone instead of renaming that.
This option has exactly the same semantics are other mpv options that
override a particular thing with something from the user. So instead of
the "force-style" name, use "-overrides" which is more consistent.
The plural form is used since it's a list option.
Other similar options are in the form of --foo-override not
--override-foo. The display-fps one was backwards so flip it around the
other way for consistency reasons.
This better reflects what it actually does. As a bonus, script writers
won't be misled into thinking that fps displays the actual video or
display fps.
Peak detection greatly increases HDR experience. Performance hit of
non-delayed detection is not that significant and is in line with
current default settings.
Nobody except a chosen few (I'm not one of them) even knows what it
means. Multiple people thought it was actually some kind of rendering
bug. Just disable it by default. Closes#12671.
I started going through the blame but once I got to mplayer commits from
20 years ago, I stopped bothering. This obscure option has always been
disabled by default, but there's zero reason, as far as I know, to not
just enable it today. Some CDs (particularly very old ones) have the
first sector shifted a bit and not starting exactly at 0. This makes the
logic that tries to get all the chapters completely fail and thus you
can't skip through tracks. However if you just enable this obscure
option, it just works. For anything that starts exactly at 0, the
calculated offset is just 0 anyway so it's a no-op and works exactly the
same. So basically, there's literally no reason to not just always try
to correct for the offset of the first sector by default.
Fixes#8777.
Why a bigger search-interval is required:
scaletempo2 doesn't do a good job when the signal contains frequencies
less then 1/search_interval. With a search interval of 30ms that means
anything below 33.333Hz sounds bad.
Depending on the genre it's very for music to contain frequencies down
to 30Hz, and sometimes even a little bit below that. Therefore a higher
default value is needed to handle such cases.
Based on that an argument can be made for a value of 50, as that should
work down to 20Hz, or something even higher because movies sometimes
have some infrasonic content.
However the downside of big search intervals is increased CPU usage and
intelligibility at higher speeds, as it effectively leads to parts of
the audio being skipped.
A value of 40 can handle frequencies down to 25Hz, enough for all music
except very rare edge cases, while still providing decent
intelligibility.
Why a smaller window-size is required:
Large values reduce intelligibility at high speeds and therefore small
values are preferred.
However when values get too small it starts to sound weird
(similar to librubberband).
In my testing a value of 10 already works well, but adding a small
safety margin seems like a good idea, especially since it made no
noticeable difference to intelligibility, which is why 12 was chosen.
add support for vulkan through metal and a translation layer like
MoltenVK. also add the possibility to use different render timing modes
for testing.
i still consider this experimental atm.
Added to the functions `mp.add_timeout` and `mp.add_periodic_timer`.
If the `disabled` argument is set to `true` or a truthy value, the
timer will wait to be manually started with a call to its `resume()`
method.
Only vpdau-copy works with EGL. 2d1d815cc7 already added this to
manpage, and 1c8d2246bf removed it again, but that seems to be a mistake
because I can only get vdpau to work with GLX, and another user also
reported that only vdpau-copy was working for him with the default EGL.
playlist-prev-playlist goes to the beginning of the previous playlist
because this seems more useful and symmetrical to
playlist-next-playlist. It does not go to the beginning when the current
playlist-path starts with the previous playlist-path, e.g. with mpv
--loop-playlist foo/, which expands to foo/{1..9}.zip, the current
playlist path foo/1.zip beings with the playlist-path foo/ of {2..9}.zip
and thus playlist-prev-playlist goes to 9.zip rather than to 2.zip.
Closes#12495.
Completion suggestions are now nicely formatted into a table.
Maximum width of the table is estimated based on OSD size and
font size.
This requires a new scaling factor option `font_hw_ratio`.
A factor of 2.15 works great for me,
but the default is 2.0 to avoid problems with other fonts.
The space between columns is automatically adjusted to be
between 2 and 8 spaces.
It tries to use as few rows as possible.
There's really no reason not to do this especially since sub-codepage
already defaults to auto. Also change logging in charset_conv since
telling us that the data is UTF-8 if the passed codepage value is "auto"
or "utf-8" is really not useful information (that's the expectation).
What are cue sheets not metadata or something? No reason this needs to
be a separate option so just deprecate it. This does mean that the
default value changes from "auto" to "utf-8" for this obscure fringe
case. I really hope people don't use non-UTF-8 cuesheets, but the next
commit will change the default of --metadata-codepage to "auto" so
there's no actual change in behavior to users.
