Before this change, mpv used to get the total duration from
`avformat_find_stream_info` and used the per-track duration as a
fallback. This change reverses this order of preference.
The timestamps returned by `avformat_find_stream_info` are truncated or
rounded or floored (depending on the decoder) at the 6th decimal place.
For e.g. `avformat_find_stream_info` may return us a duration like
44.138667, whereas the duration we get from the per-track struct has a
higher degree of precision like 44.13866666666... and so on.
This caused various problems such as the playback_pts being a bigger
value than the duration, which would cause time-remaining to be a
negative value in some cases. Or cause you to reach a negative starting
timestamp when looping on an audio file with `gapless-audio`.
Moreover, we already skipped calling `avformat_find_stream_info` for
mp4, so we had already been utilizing this per-track fallback method for
finding the duration for mp4 files. It should be noted that while this
change is only required for audio-only formats, there is no harm in
doing this for videos as well.
64959c450d solved the problems with resuming playback, so default to
--directory-mode=lazy because it's faster, especially on slow drives,
and results in smaller playlists.

09c701b797 added a fallback for headerless
m3u files. However, it requires that the bstr len be greater than 10.
This means that a m3u playlist with a single entry with a very short
filename (such as "test.flac") will not be recognized as a playlist
since the amount of data is too small. The reason for this restriction
is unexplained and really shouldn't matter given that the important
thing mpv should be doing is checking if the data is text. Instead,
loosen the check so that it only needs to be 2 or greater. This covers a
single byte filename and a line terminator.
This only existed as essentially a workaround for meson's behavior and
to maintain compatibility with the waf build. Since waf put everything
in a generated subdirectory, we had to put make a subdirectory called
"generated" in the source for meson so stuff could go to the right
place. Well now we don't need to do that anymore. Move the meson.build
files around so they go in the appropriate place in the subdirectory of
the source tree and change the paths of the headers accordingly. A
couple of important things to note.
1. mpv.com now gets made in build/player/mpv.com (necessary because of
a meson limitation)
2. The macos icon generation path is shortened to
TOOLS/osxbundle/icon.icns.inc.
Directories were always loaded recursively, which can be slow
(e.g. one of the subdirectories is a mounting point to a slow device)
and can unexpectedly expand into a massive playlist.
Due to the problems described in 503dada42f,
this defaults to recursive loading.

--no-config should prevent loading user files of any type: configs,
cache, etc. For cache files, this case wasn't properly handled and it
was assumed they would always get something. vo_gpu's shader cache
actually already handles this, so it was left untouched. In theory,
demuxer cache should never have this issue because saving it to disk is
disabled by default (and likely that will never change), but go ahead
and change it for consistency's sake. Fixes some segfaults with
--no-config and various combinations of settings (particularly
--vo=gpu-next).
If demux_open_lavf fails between calling avformat_alloc_context() and
assigning the context to priv->avfc, it will never be properly freed.
Fixes#11793.
Pass "dummy.m3u8" filename to work around FFmpeg commit
6b1f68ccb04d791f0250e05687c346a99ff47ea1 which broke their HLS demuxer
and its ability to probe.
Since the above commit, libavformat will check the filename of the file
to be probed and reject it if it doesn't end with a valid HLS extension
i.e. m3u8,hls,m3u (never mind that .hls is not a valid HLS extension).
In addition to a bug with query strings, this also breaks mpv
functionality as mpv explicitly doesn't tell libavformat the filename
when probing, in order to properly detect the file based only on their
contents.
The [HLS specification](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8216.txt) aka
RFC 8216, specifies in section 4 that "Each Playlist file MUST be
identifiable either by the path component of its URI or by HTTP
Content-Type." Notably, it does not require both, so this FFmpeg commit
is noncompliant. We work around this noncompliance by checking the MIME
type ourselves. If the mimetype matches one of the valid HLS mimetypes
(and also application/x-mpegurl, a legacy pre-standardization type),
then we pass "dummy.m3u8" to libavformat in order to work around its
overly strict checking of filenames.
Without this patch, we are unable to play many HLS streams, including a
few from the ytdl hook. This patch restores those ability to play those
streams when built against FFmpeg master. Do note that if the server
sends an invalid content-type header then we cannot implement this
workaround so those streams will still fail to play.
This adds cache as a possible path for mpv to internally pick
(~/.cache/mpv for non-darwin unix-like systems, the usual config
directory for everyone else). For gpu shader cache and icc cache,
controlling whether or not to write such files is done with the new
--gpu-shader-cache and --icc-cache options respectively. Additionally,
--cache-on-disk no longer requires explicitly setting the --cache-dir
option. The old options, --cache-dir, --gpu-shader-cache-dir, and
--icc-cache-dir simply set an override for the directory to save cache
files. If unset, then the cache is saved in XDG_CACHE_HOME.
`io_close2` was introduced as a superior replacement for `io_close` in
ffmpeg 5.0, and then deprecated in 6.0. The difference is that
`io_close2` can return errors. In our case, we're just calling through
to the original function anyway, so we don't need to do more than pass
the return value back.
c784820454 introduced a bool option type
as a replacement for the flag type, but didn't actually transition and
remove the flag type because it would have been too much mundane work.
In debug mode the macro causes an assertion failure.
In release mode it works differently and tells the compiler that it can
assume the codepath will never execute. For this reason I was conversative
in replacing it, e.g. in mpv-internal code that exhausts all valid values
of an enum or when a condition is clear from directly preceding code.
In `new_demux_packet_from`, we initialise a new packet and allocate a
buffer which we copy the source data into. But I was then assigning
the original source pointer as the packet's buffer, rather than keeping
the newly allocated one. Whoops.
Without this change the same track encoded as Opus - which requires R128
tagging - and e.g. Vorbis with ReplayGain tagging have different volumes.
This is caused by ReplayGain 2 having a higher reference level of -18 dB
LUFS, while EBU R128 has a lower reference level of -23 dB LUFS.
For the results of gain application to match, the read EBU R128
values need to be boosted according to the difference in reference
levels.
Patch inspired by mpd's source code.
Buffering ahead nonstop into the cache results in nonstop disk or network
activity to read stream data from wherever it may originate. Currently,
there's no way to configure the demuxer to back off once it's buffered
ahead enough data, since the cache limit will be perpetually not-reached as
a stream continues to play, until the entire stream is eventually buffered.
On a laptop with an i9-12900H with decoding performed by the iGPU,
watching a locally-saved 1080p video which hasn't been buffered into the
page cache consumes approximately 15 W even with caching enabled. When
configuring a hysteresis to make the demuxer back off, power consumption
drops to 9 W when watching the same video, resulting in a whopping 6 W of
power savings.
To make it possible to attain significant power savings via caching, add
a --demuxer-hysteresis-secs option to configure a hysteresis to make the
demuxer back off until there's only the configured number of seconds
remaining in the cache from the current playback position.
This feature is disabled by default.
In the previous change, I replaced the callsites that used
`av_init_packet`, but there are a handful of places that use stack
allocated packets with no initialisation.
In one case, I just switched to heap allocation as it's only done once
per stream at most.
In the other case, I removed our usage of the AVPackets as a
convenience mechanism to transfer data into a heap allocated packet.
Instead, I inlined the data copying.
Now that 0.35 has been released, we can consider increasing our minimum
required ffmpeg version. Currently, we think 4.4 is the most recent
version we can move to (from the current requirement of 4.0).
This allows us to remove a few conditionals. There are more that we
won't be able to remove unless we move further up to 5.1.
This patch adds support for two extra WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE GUID tags
that can appear inside RIFF headers. It also adds support for extra
codec IDs that may appear as their own unique wSubFormats inside RIFF
headers, such as ATRAC9 inside matroska, as one example.
Fixes#10757.
This define was always just a stopgap for that two month period (August
2021 - October 2021) where the bytes_read field in ffmpeg was completely
missing. Before that time, it was a private member in a struct (which
mpv used). Afterwards, it officially became public. Fortunately, the
lack of this field never actually made it into a release, so it could
have only possibly affected people building from the master branch.
Since ffmpeg 5.0 came out recently, and it's been plenty of months since
that two month window, we can go ahead and drop this check. This
finishes up the work done in 78cfeee2b9.
Sidenote: the cached ffmpeg version in the mingw ci were from that time
period when the bytes_read field was missing. The N in the workflow is
bumped to force a full rebuild and fresh clone of ffmpeg.
This needs to be forwarded from the AVStream to the AVPacket itself, so
that it reaches the decoder. There exists an FFmpeg function for this,
we just need to call it. (Also add some logging)
The extension is completely arbitrary since ebml_defs.c isn't a real c
file that actually is compiled at any point in time. It's just used as
an include. The reason for changing the extension is because meson needs
to add this to its list of sources for dependency/ordering purposes.
Understandably, meson will try to compile any .c file added to a c
project executable object. Obviously, this compilation will never
succeed, and this shouldn't be compiled anyways. Just make it .inc
instead.
This seems to work on gcc, clang and mingw as-is, but I made it
conditional on __GNUC__ just in case, even though I can't figure out
which compilers we care about that don't export this define.
Also replace all instances of assert(0) in the code by MP_UNREACHABLE(),
which is a strict improvement.
