Avi Halachmi (:avih) 89684976ac win32: support the property 'focused'
And also change the existing WM_KILLFOCUS handler to return 0 instead
of 'break' (which later calls DefWindowProcW), as MSDN says we should
do for WM_{KILL,SET}FOCUS.

It seems that the 'focused' property is now supported by all main VOs:
x11, macOS, wayland, Windows.

TCT/sixel/caca probably don't support it, and unknown with SDL.

Niklas Haas 353cccfa8c vo_gpu: replace --icc-contrast by --icc-force-contrast
Not only does this have semantics that make far more sense, it also has
a default that makes far more sense. (Equivalent to the old
`icc-contrast=inf`)

This removes the weird 1000:1 contrast default assumption which
especially broke perceptual profiles and also screws things up for
OLED/CRT/etc.

Should probably close some issues but I honestly can't be bothered to
figure out which of the thousands colorimetry-related issues are
affected.

Your Name adcf51dccd edl: add a way to add tags
Add new header which shows up as tags/metadata (associated with
--display-tags). The way this is added means it doesn't always work,
because root->meta (see code) can be NULL for some absurd reason. But it
works for the one case I intended to use it (ytdl_hook, see next
commit), though only in default configurations.

Dudemanguy a88fdfde0c command: add display-width/display-height property
For some reason, this never existed before. Add VOCTRL_GET_DISPLAY_RES
and use it to obtain the current display's resolution from each
vo/windowing backend if applicable. Users can then access the current
display resolution as display-width and display-height as per the client
api. Note that macOS/cocoa was not attempted in this commit since the
author has no clue how to write swift.

Avi Halachmi (:avih) 8edfe70b83 DOCS/input.rst: clarify --no-input-default-keybindings docs
This commit describes more accurately what currently gets disabled
by this option - specifically also keys from mp.add_key_binding.

It's not necessarily the best behavior because libmpv clients might
want to disable mpv's own builtin keybindings while still allowing
scripts to define keys which `input.conf' can override.

In the future we might exclude mp.add_key_binding from this option,
but for now at least document this option accurately.

Avi Halachmi (:avih) ef1d0b2cdb options: win32: ignore and deprecate --fit-border
The accurate description of this option was:
- fit-border is enabled by default. When disabled, it adds a bug where
  if the window has borders and mpv shrinks it to fit the desktop, then
  the calculation ignores the borders and adds incorrect video crop.

The option was added at commits 70f64f3c and 949247d6, in order to
solve an issue (#2935) where if mpv wanted to display a video with
size WxH, then w32_common.c incorrectly set the window to WxH, while
down-scaling the video slightly to fit (even with small sizes).

It was addressed with a new option which is enabled by default, but
does the right thing (sets the client area to WxH) only when disabled,
so that everyone who prefers their video slightly downscaled could
keep their default behavior.

(#2935 also addressed an off-by-one issue, fixed before fit-border)

While disabling the option did avoid unnecessary downscaling, it also
added a bug when disabled: the borders are no longer taken into
account when the size is too big for the desktop. Most users don't
notice and are unaffected as it's enabled by default.

Shortly later (981048e0) the core issue is fixed, and now the client
area is correctly set to WxH instead of the window (and together with
the three following commits which center the video, adds a new bug
where the window title can be outside the display - addressed next).

However, fit-border remained, now without any effect, except that it
still has the same bug when disabled and the window is too big.

Later code changes and refactoring preserved this issue with great
attention to details, and it remained in identical form until now.

Simply rip out fit-border.

LaserEyess dd86f195a6 vo_gpu: adjust interpolation_threshold's default
When mpv attempts to play a video that is, on average, 60 FPS on a
display that is not exactly 60.00 Hz, two options try to fight each
other: `video-sync-max-video-change` and `interpolation-threshold`.
Normally, container FPS in something such as an .mp4 or a .mkv is
precise enough such that the video can be retimed exactly to the display
Hz and interpolation is not activated.

In the case of something like certain live streaming videos or other scenario
where container FPS is not known, the default option of 0.0001 for
`interpolation-threshold` is extremely low, and while
`video-sync-max-video-change` retimes the video to what it approximately
knows as the "real" FPS, this may or may not be outside of
`interpolation-threshold`'s logic at any given time, which causes
interpolation to be frequently flipped on and off giving an appearance
of stuttering or repeated frames that is oftern quite jarring and makes
a video unwatchable.

This commit changes the default of `interpolation-threshold` to 0.01,
which is the same value as `video-sync-max-video-change`, and guarantees
that if the user accepts a video being retimed to match the display,
they do not additionally have to worry about a much more
precise interpolation threshold randomly flipping on or off. No internal
logic is changed so setting `interpolation-threshold` to -1 will still
disable this logic entirely and always enable interpolation.

The documentation has been updated to reflect this change and give
context to the user for which scenarios they might want to disable
`interpolation-threshold` logic or change it to a smaller value.

This change only affects command arguments which mpv parses (not array
commands), and not tokens before the arguments (where applicable - key
name, input section, command prefixes, command name).

der richter af26402948 mac: use visible frame rectangle for window geometry calculation
currently we use the whole screen rectangle to calculate the window
geometry. this doesn't take the menu bar or the Dock into account.

by default use the visible screen rectangle instead. this is also a
change in behaviour, since the window can't be placed outside of this
rectangle anymore. also add an option to change to the old behaviour,
because it can still be useful in certain cases, like placing the window
directly underneath the menu bar when used a desktop background.

Guido Cella d4bf179e78 manpage: clarify that you can prefetch m3u8 urls
With the current wording, I thought that playlist-prefetch doesn't
prefetch the next url within a playlist of m3u8 urls, but it makes a big
difference, and I would have enabled it earlier if it wasn't for this
paragraph.

This makes it clear that you can prefetch any file, but that it won't
prefill the cache with the video data. This is true for any video,
there's nothing unique about HLS streams in the behavior of this option.

Avi Halachmi (:avih) 62fb374349 vo_sixel: change default dither to "auto"
For two reasons:
1. It was counter intuitive that there's an "auto" value (which is
   actually a libsixel value and not an mpv one), but it's not the
   default value - our default was Atkinson.
2. "auto" provides better dithering than Atkinson with libsixel, which
   is especially noticeable with smooth gradients - where Atkinson has
   visible banding.

In libsixel 1.8.2 the "auto" value maps to Atkinson if the output
palette has up to 16 colors, or to Floyd-Steinberg otherwise (e.g.
using fixed palette with 256 colors chooses Floyd-Steinberg).

Avi Halachmi (:avih) 59c32a04b0 vo_sixel: fix the image corruption with mlterm
The issue was that we only uploaded the palette to the terminal when it
changed (once on init with fixed palette, every frame with dynamic
palette with trheshold=-1, only on scene change with threshold >= 0).

Now we upload it on every frame, and it seems to fix the mlterm image
corruption both with fixed palette and also with dynamic palette with
threshold (i.e. at frames which did not upload a palette).

It's not entirely clear why it's required with mlterm.

It would seem that the palette which libsixel uses with fixed palette
matches the built in default palette in xterm, but not in mlterm.
With dynamic palette we can guess that mlterm resets the palette after a
sixel image, but that's not confirmed.

Uploading the palette on every frame doesn't seem to slow down xterm
when using fixed palette - not clear yet why uploading a different
palette (when using fixedpalette=no) slows it down while same palette
on every frame doesn't.

In mlterm there's no slowdown either way - and now also no corruption.

rcombs 4dcaf70b96 Revert "options: disable vsfilter blur compat by default"
This reverts commit 3d17e19c2c.

The effect of turning off this setting is that mpv doesn't tell libass what
the video stream's resolution is. This happens to result in some files having
their transforms scaled in ways that give higher performance (as described
in #7435) because libass happened to guess a video resolution that resulted
in transforms yielding smaller bitmaps, but it's just as easy for the opposite
to happen depending on the resolutions and effects involved.

The option's name is also somewhat misleading: setting the storage size affects
blur, but it also affects stroke (which is far more important for the vast
majority of scripts) and 3D transforms (which look very screwy when done wrong).

Shreesh Adiga 6ad3e2bfbd vo_sixel: Add aspect ratio based output centering
Resize the image based on the dimensions reported by
vo_get_src_dst_rects to correctly handle aspect ratio
that might be set/ignored.

Added pad-x and pad-y options for padding.
These options will be used to remove the extra padding.
Some terminals report the padding of 2px in the ioctl
dimensions which can't be used for displaying sixel
output. These options can be used for fine tuning
the output video resolution.

Now all the terminal size detection and calculation logic
is done in a single function at resize. Also top and left
values are computed from the dst_rect parameters to simplify
the logic for the aspect ratio based centering.

Additionally vo-sixel-rows and vo-sixel-cols options
have been added to enable the user to override the values
in case of failures with get_terminal_size2.

This commit also adds ability to handle video zoom correctly.
Whenever video-zoom is triggered, the src and dst rects
will be updated. Scaling seems to work well now.

wm4 26fc70dbfd path: do not use old_home for win32 exe dir
Apparently mpv supports loading config files from the same directory as
the mpv.exe. This is a fallback of some sort. It used the old_home
mechanism.

I want to add a warning if old_home exists, but that would always show
the warning on win32. Obviously we don't want that.

Add a separate exe_dir entry to deal with that.

Untested, but probably works.

Mistakenly reverted as part of the default configuration directory
location switch-back in aa18a8e1cd.

Separation of the mpv executable directory from old_path is a
good change now that we warn about the old_config directory also
existing.

Avi Halachmi (:avih) 932c1ada0f js: report scripts CPU/memory usage statistics
This can be viewed at page 4 of the internal stats display (i or I).

CPU time report is the same as at lua.c, but untested - doesn't seem
to work on windows - also not for lua.

TL;DR: Set env MPV_LEAK_REPORT=1 to enable js memory reporting stats.
       This also almost doubles the memory usage by js scripts.

For memory reporting, we don't have enough info by default, because
even when using a custom allocator, mujs doesn't report the old size
(on free or realloc) because it doesn't track this value, and as
a result we can't track the overall size.

Our option are either to track the size of each allocation on our own,
or use talloc which tracks this value.

However, using talloc for mujs allocations adds a considerable
overhead, and almost doubles(!) the overall memory used, because each
individual allocation includes a considerable talloc header, and mujs
does many small allocations.

So our solution is that by default we behave like previously - not
using a custom allocator with mujs, and stats does not display memory
usage for js scripts.

However, if the env var MPV_LEAK_REPORT is set to 1, then we use
a custom allocator with talloc and track/report memory usage.

We can't switch allocator at runtime, so an mpv instance either tracks
or doesn't track js scripts memory usage, according to the env var.
(we could use a property and apply it whenever a new script starts,
so that it could change for newly launched scripts, but we don't).
