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.
Stream implementations could set this to a unix file descriptor. The
generic stream code could use it as fallback for a few things. This
was confusing and insane. In most cases, the stream implementations
defined all callbacks, so setting the fd member didn't have any
advantages, other than avoiding defining a private struct to store it.
It appears that even if the stream implementation used close() on the
fd (or something equivalent), stream.c would close() it a second time
(and on windows, even would call closesocket()), which should be proof
for the insanity of this code.
For stream_file.c, additionally make sure we don't close stdin or
stdout if "-" is used as filename.
For stream_vcd.c, remove the control() code. This code most likely
didn't make the slightest sense, because it used a different type
for stream->priv. It also leaked memory. Maybe it worked, but it's
incorrect and insignificant anyway, so kill it. This code was added
with commit 9521c19 (svn commit 31019).
Untested for all protocols other than stream_file.c.
Get rid of the strange and messy reliance on DEMUXER_TYPE_ constants.
Instead of having two open functions for the demuxer callbacks (which
somehow are both optional, but you can also decide to implement both...),
just have one function. This function takes a parameter that tells the
demuxer how strictly it should check for the file headers. This is a
nice simplification and allows more flexibility.
Remove the file extension code. This literally did nothing (anymore).
Change demux_lavf so that we check our other builtin demuxers first
before libavformat tries to guess by file extension.
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.
Generally remove all accesses to demux_stream from all the code, except
inside of demux.c. Make it completely private to demux.c.
This simplifies the code because it removes an extra concept. In demux.c
it is reduced to a simple packet queue. There were other uses of
demux_stream, but they were removed or are removed with this commit.
Remove the extra "ds" argument to demux fill_buffer callback. It was
used by demux_avi and the TV pseudo-demuxer only.
Remove usage of d_video->last_pts from the no-correct-pts code. This
field contains the last PTS retrieved after a packet that is not NOPTS.
We can easily get this value manually because we read the packets
ourselves. Reuse sh_video->last_pts to store the packet PTS values. It
was used only by the correct-pts code before, and like d_video->last_pts,
it is reset on seek. The behavior should be exactly the same.
Currently, all demuxer fill_buffer functions have a demux_stream
parameter. We want to remove that, but the TV code still depends on
it. Add a hack to remove that dependency.
The problem with the TV code is that reading video and audio frames
blocks, so in order to avoid a deadlock, you should read either of
them only if the decoder actually requests new data.
This is not directly related to the handling of format changes itself,
but playing audio normally after the change. This was broken: the output
byte rate was not recalculated, so audio-video sync was simply broken.
Fix this by calculating the byte rate on the fly, instead of storing it
in sh_audio.
Format changes are relatively common (switches between stereo and 5.1
in TV recordings), so this fixes a somewhat critical bug.
Add this option, which lets users set the cache size without forcing it
even when playing from the local filesystem.
Also document the default value explicitly.
The Matroska linked segments case is slightly simplified: they can
never come from network (mostly because it'd be insane, and we can't
even list files from network sources), so the cache will never be
enabled automatically.
This is a regression caused by 854303a. This commit removed the include of
`sys/time.h` which was included in `cache.c` through a chain of recurvive
includes.
These separate arrays were used by the old demuxers and are not needed
anymore. We can simplify track switching as well.
One interesting thing is that stream/tv.c (which is a demuxer) won't
respect --no-audio anymore. It will probably work as expected, but it
will still open an audio device etc. - this is because track selection
is now always done with the runtime track switching mechanism. Maybe
the TV code could be updated to do proper runtime switching, but I
can't test this stuff.
Delete demux_avi, demux_asf, demux_mpg, demux_ts. libavformat does
better than them (except in rare corner cases), and the demuxers have
a bad influence on the rest of the code. Often they don't output
proper packets, and require additional audio and video parsing. Most
work only in --no-correct-pts mode.
Remove them to facilitate further cleanups.
Commit 7b16d4b changed some stream implementations to check the buffer
size passed to them. This made stream_cdda stop working, because the
default buffer size is smaller than the CDIO frame size. So pass the
sector size instead of the (arbitrary) default buffer size.
Seeking to position 0 meant to try reconnecting with some streams,
actually just the internal http implementation. This has been removed,
so we don't need the special handling anymore.
This means we don't have to be stuck in a retry loop if the stream
doesn't even support reconnect.
stream_vstream.c in particular was actually dependent on the network
code, and didn't compile anymore.
Cleanup the protocol list in mpv.rst, and add some missing ones
supported by libavformat to stream_lavf.c.
This was an old leftover from an earlier cleanup (which happened in
2003), and which used "special" stuff for streams that could be only
forward-seeked.
Also, don't add mode flags to s->flags; they're supposed to be in
s->mode instead.
This was under CONFIG_NETWORKING, so in theory it should have been save
to remove. But actually this disables forward skipping when reading
from a pipe. (Still a questionable feature, because it doesn't behave
well with libavformat - but it was not supposed to be changed.)
This commit removes the "old" networking code in favor of libavformat's
code.
The code was still used for mp_http, udp, ftp, cddb. http has been
mapped to libavformat's http support since approximately 6 months ago.
udp and ftp have support in ffmpeg (though ftp was added only last
month). cddb support is removed with this commit - it's probably not
important and rarely used if at all, so we don't care about it.
When reading something successfully, the eof flag should never be 1, so
clear it in these situations. The eof flag will be set properly on the
next read call.
STREAM_CTRL_GET_METADATA will be used to poll for streamcast metadata.
Also add DEMUXER_CTRL_UPDATE_INFO, which could in theory be used by
demux_lavf.c. (Unfortunately, libavformat is too crappy to read metadata
mid-stream for mp3 or ogg, so we don't implement it.)
stream_read_unbuffered() can sometimes return negative values on error.
Change that to return 0 - the negative values are nowhere used anyway.
If distinguishing errors and EOF is really needed, a flag could be added
instead.
This also fixes the stream_read_partial() call in cache.c, which assumes
the return values is always >= 0.
Querying this caused the cache to block and wait. Some parts of the
frontend (like progress bar) call this very often, so cache performance
was ruined in these cases.
Also print a message in -v mode when the cache is blocked for a
STREAM_CTRL. This should make debugging similar issues easier.
Seems like a completely unnecessary complication. Instead, always add a
1 byte padding (could be extended if a caller needs it), and clear it.
Also add some documentation. There was some, but it was outdated and
incomplete.
Or rather, keep hacking it until it somehow works. The problem here was
that trying to avoid calling STREAM_CTRL_GET_CURRENT_TIME too often
didn't really work, so the cache sometimes returned incorrect times.
Also try to avoid the situation that looking up the time with an
advanced read position doesn't really work, as well as when trying to
look it up when EOF or cache end has been reached. In that case we have
read_filepos == max_filepos, which is "outside" of the cache, but
querying the time is still valid.
Should also fix the issue that demuxing streams with demux_lavf and if
STREAM_CTRL_GET_CURRENT_TIME is not supported messed up the reported
playback position.
This stuff is still not sane, but the way the player tries to fix the
playback time and how the DVD/BD stream inputs return the current time
based on the current byte position isn't sane to begin with. So, let's
leave it at bad hacks.
The two changes that touch s->eof are unrelated and basically of
cosmetic nature (separate commit would be too noisy.)
This is useless on the cache side. The sector is needed only to deal
with stream implementations which are not byte addressable, and the
cache is always byte addressable.
Also set a default read_chunk value. (This value is never used unless
you chain multiple caches, but it's cleaner.)
DVD and bluray packet streams carry (essentially) random timestamps,
which don't start at 0, can wrap, etc. libdvdread and libbluray provide
a linear timestamp additionally. This timestamp can be retrieved with
STREAM_CTRL_GET_CURRENT_TIME.
The problem is that this timestamp is bound to the current raw file
position, and the stream cache can be ahead of playback by an arbitrary
amount. This is a big problem for the user, because the displayed
playback time and actual time don't match (depending on cache size),
and relative seeking is broken completely.
Attempt to fix this by saving the linear timestamp all N bytes (where
N = BYTE_META_CHUNK_SIZE = 16 KB). This is a rather crappy hack, but
also very effective.
A proper solution would probably try to offset the playback time with
the packet PTS, but that would require at least knowing how the PTS can
wrap (e.g. how many bits is the PTS comprised of, and what are the
maximum and reset values). Another solution would be putting the cache
between libdvdread and the filesystem/DVD device, but that can't be done
currently. (Also isn't that the operating system's responsibility?)
This was probably done this way to ensure that after a successful seek,
the reported stream position is the same as the requested seek position.
But it doesn't make too much sense, since both stream->pos and the
stream implementation's internal position will go out of sync.
The stream EOF flag should only be set when trying to read past the end
of the file (relatively similar to unix files). Always clear the EOF
flag on seeking. Trying to set it "properly" (depending whether data is
available at seek destination or not) might be an ok idea, but would
require attention to too many special cases. I suspect before this
commit (and in MPlayer etc. too), the EOF flag wasn't handled
consistently when the stream position was at the end of the file.
Fix one special case in ebml.c and stream_skip(): this function couldn't
distinguish between at-EOF and past-EOF either.
EOF should be set when reading more data fails. The stream
implementations have nothing to say here and should behave correctly
when trying to read when EOF was actually read.
Even when seeking, a correct EOF flag should be guaranteed. stream_seek()
(or actually stream_seek_long()) calls stream_fill_buffer() at least
once, which also updates the EOF flag.
This function was called in various places. Most time, it was used
before a seek. In other cases, the purpose was apparently resetting
the EOF flag. As far as I can see, this makes no sense anymore. At
least the stream_reset() calls paired with stream_seek() are completely
pointless. A seek will either seek inside the buffer (and reset the
EOF flag), or do an actual seek and reset all state.
This happens with something like "mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch".
The URL is obviously not valid, but the stream layer tries to reconnect.
This commit at least allows to use the terminal to abort gracefully.
(Other than killing the process.)
Basically rewrite all the code supporting the cache (i.e. anything other
than the ringbuffer logic). The underlying design is untouched.
Note that the old cache2.c (on which this code is based) already had a
threading implementation. This was mostly unused on Linux, and had some
problems, such as using shared volatile variables for communication and
uninterruptible timeouts, instead of using locks for synchronization.
This commit does use proper locking, while still retaining the way the
old cache worked. It's basically a big refactor.
Simplify the code too. Since we don't need to copy stream ctrl args
anymore (we're always guaranteed a shared address space now), lots of
annoying code just goes away. Likewise, we don't need to care about
sector sizes. The cache uses the high-level stream API to read from
other streams, and sector sizes are handled transparently.
demux_lavf probes up to 2 MB of data in the worst case. When the ffmpeg
demuxer is actually opened, the stream is seeked back to 0, and the
previously read data is thrown away.
This wasn't a problem for playback of local files, but it's less than
ideal for playing from slow media (like web streams), and breaks
completely if the media is not seekable (pipes, some web streams).
This new function is intended to allow fixing this. demux_lavf will use
it to put the read probe data back into the buffer.
The simplest way of implementing this function is by making it
transparently extend the normal stream buffer. This makes sure no
existing code is broken by new weird special cases. For simplicity
and to avoid possible performance loss due to extra dereferencing
when accessing the buffer, we just extend the static buffer from
8 KB to 2 MB. Normally, most of these 2 MB will stay uncommitted, so
there's no associated waste of memory. If demux_lavf really reads all
2 MB, the memory will be committed and stay unused, though.
Before this commit, the cache was franken-hacked on top of the stream
API. You had to use special functions (like cache_stream_fill_buffer()
instead of stream_fill_buffer()), which would access the stream in a
cached manner.
The whole idea about the previous design was that the cache runs in a
thread or in a forked process, while the cache awa functions made sure
the stream instance looked consistent to the user. If you used the
normal functions instead of the special ones while the cache was
running, you were out of luck.
Make it a bit more reasonable by turning the cache into a stream on its
own. This makes it behave exactly like a normal stream. The stream
callbacks call into the original (uncached) stream to do work. No
special cache functions or redirections are needed. The only different
thing about cache streams is that they are created by special functions,
instead of being part of the auto_open_streams[] array.
To make things simpler, remove the threading implementation, which was
messed into the code. The threading code could perhaps be kept, but I
don't really want to have to worry about this special case. A proper
threaded implementation will be added later.
Remove the cache enabling code from stream_radio.c. Since enabling the
cache involves replacing the old stream with a new one, the code as-is
can't be kept. It would be easily possible to enable the cache by
requesting a cache size (which is also much simpler). But nobody uses
stream_radio.c and I can't even test this thing, and the cache is
probably not really important for it either.
These assumed that the buffer provided with fill_buffer() was at least
sector sized, instead of checking the size parameter.
This is just a cleanup, since every caller made sure to align everything
on sector sizes, if a stream has the sector size set.
Of course all of stream_dvd.c (as well as libdvdread) is completely
insane, but at least this hack for ancient broken compilers on really
obscure platforms should be safe to remove.
Some code in mplayer.c did stuff like accessing (dvd_priv_t *)st->priv.
Do this indirectly by introducing STREAM_CTRL_GET_DVD_INFO. This is
extremely specific to DVD, so it's not worth abstracting this further.
This is a preparation for turning the cache into an actual stream, which
simply wraps the cached stream. There are other streams which are
accessed in the way DVD was, at least TV/radio/DVB. We assume these
can't be used with the cache. The code doesn't look thread-safe or fork
aware.
Internally, stream_dvd.c returned DEMUXER_TYPE_MPEG_PS, and the same
value was hardcoded to enforced usage of demux_lavf in demux.c. But
"-demuxer mpegps" basically did the same, so that switch was broken
for this format. Undo this and don't request a demuxer in stream_dvd.c.
demux_lavf.c is (probably) good enough to probe correctly with DVD.
Otherwise, we'd actually have to do something completely different to
force the libavformat demuxer.
Tests with demux_mkv show that the speed doesn't change (or actually,
it seems to be faster after this change). In any case, there is not
the slightest reason why these should be inline. Functions for which
this will (probably) actually matter, like stream_read_char, are
still left inline.
This was tested with demux_mkv's indexing. For broken files without
index, demux_mkv creates an on-the-fly index. If you seek to a later
part of the file, all data has to be read and parsed until the wanted
position is found. This means demux_mkv will do mostly I/O, calling
stream_read_char() and stream_read(). This should be the most I/O
intensive non-deprecated part of mpv that uses the stream interface.
(demux_lavf has its own buffering.)
GetTimer() is generally replaced with mp_time_us(). Both calls return
microseconds, but the latter uses int64_t, us defined to never wrap,
and never returns 0 or negative values.
GetTimerMS() has no direct replacement. Instead the other functions are
used.
For some code, switch to mp_time_sec(), which returns the time as double
float value in seconds. The returned time is offset to program start
time, so there is enough precision left to deliver microsecond
resolution for at least 100 years. Unless it's casted to a float
(or the CPU reduces precision), which is why we still use mp_time_us()
out of paranoia in places where precision is clearly needed.
Always switch to the correct time. The whole point of the new timer
calls is that they don't wrap, and storing microseconds in unsigned int
variables would negate this.
In some cases, remove wrap-around handling for time values.
This helps passing the channel layout correctly from decoder to audio
filter chain. (Because that part "reuses" the demuxer level codec
parameters, which is very disgusting.)
Note that ffmpeg stuff already passed the channel layout via
mp_copy_lav_codec_headers(). So other than easier dealing with the
demuxer/decoder parameters mess, there's no real advantage to doing
this.
Make the --channels option accept a channel map. Since simple numbers
map to standard layouts with the given number of channels, this is
downwards compatible. Likewise for demux_rawaudio.
Uses the same mechanisms as stream_dvd to report the virtual playback
time as known by libdvdread/libbluray, instead of the raw demuxer
output.
This should solve many problems with BD playback, like correct display
of playback time and duration.
On the other hand, this causes some new problems. For example, the
reported stream time has a rather low resolution (1-2 seconds), so
doing precise seeking on it is near impossible.
Allow the stream layer to report chapter times. Extend stream_dvd to do
this. I'm not 100% sure whether the re-used code is bug-free (because it
was used for slave-mode and/or debugging only).
MAke the frontend do time-based seeks when switching DVD chapters. I'm
not sure if there's a real reason STREAM_CTRL_SEEK_TO_CHAPTER exists
(maybe/hopefully not), but we will see.
Note that querying chapter times in demuxer_chapter_time() with the new
STREAM_CTRL_GET_CHAPTER_TIME could be excessively slow, especially with
the cache enabled. The frontend likes to query chapter times very often.
Additionally, stream_dvd uses some sort of quadratic algorithm to list
times for all chapters. For this reason, we try to query all chapters on
start (after the demuxer is opened), and add the chapters to the demuxer
chapter list. demuxer_chapter_time() will get the time from that list,
instead of asking the stream layer over and over again.
This assumes stream_dvd knows the list of chapters at the start, and
also that the list of chapters never changes during playback. This
seems to be true, and the only exception, switching DVD titles, is not
supported at runtime (and doesn't need to be supported).
These were found by the cppcheck and scan-build static analyzers. Most
of these aren't interesting (the 2 previous commits fix some interesting
cases found by these analyzers), and they don't nearly fix all warnings.
(Most of the unfixed warnings are spam, things MPlayer never cared
about, or false positives.)
Commit 4d14a42, a seemingly harmless change, introduced very bad cache
behavior when the cache isn't forked, such as on Windows, where it uses
threads. Apparently the cache code was designed for forking, and an
unknown obscure condition causes severe performance degradation if a
STREAM_CTRL is sent to the cache on every frame.
Since the cache code is literally insane (uses shared memory + fork(),
and has hacks to make it work with threads, is messed into the stream
code in extra-hacky ways), we just fix it by caching the STREAM_CTRL in
question.
This is also done for some other STREAM_CTRLs that are called on each
frame, such as playback duration. This indicates that the cache code has
some inherent problem with answering such requests in a timely matter,
and that there's no easy way around this.
(Even if the cache is eventually rewritten, these things will probably
have to be cached, otherwise you'd have to forcibly block until the
stream implementation is done with a blocking read. The real question
is why it worked fine with the forked cache, though.)
Will be needed to override the demuxer's start time reporting. We could
be lazy and special-case it since the result is always 0 for the streams
that care, but doing it properly is better.
DVD playback uses a demuxer that signals to the frontend that timestamp
resets are possible. This made the frontend calculate the OSD playback
position based on the byte position and the total size of the stream.
This actually broke DVD playback position display. Since DVD reports a
a linear playback position, we don't have to rely on the demuxer
reported position, so disable this functionality in case of DVD
playback. This reverts the OSD behavior with DVD to the old behavior.

This also fixes specifying an end chapter via -chapter.

Remove the "object settings" based track range parsing (needed by
stream_cdda only), and make stream_cdda use CONF_TYPE_INT_PAIR.
This makes the -vf parsing code completely independent from other
options. A bit of that code was used by the mechanism removed with
this commit.
ntddcdrm.h is no longer under the 'ddk' directory in MinGW-w64,
and since MPV focuses on it instead of the old MinGW32, there's no
reason to keep that dir prefix, as it stops VCD support from being
built at all for Windows.
Handle the severely broken headers QuickTime Streaming Server sends.
