This would get stuck in reconfiguring the filter chain forever, because
params was mutated ("params.rotate = 0;"). This was used as input for
vf_reconfig(), but the filter chain input must always be equivalent to
the decoder output, or filter chain reconfiguration will be triggered.
The line of code to reset the rotation is from a time when this used to
work differently.
Also remove the unnecessary try_filter() parameter.
Unfortunately I see no better solution.
The refresh seek is skipped if the amount of buffered audio is not
overly huge.
Unfortunately softvol af_volume insertion still can cause this issue,
because it's outside of the normal dynamic filter chain changing code.
Move the video refresh call to reinit_video_filters() to make it more
uniform along with the audio code.
See --lavfi-complex option.
This is still quite rough. There's no support for dynamic configuration
of any kind. There are probably corner cases where playback might freeze
or burn 100% CPU (due to dataflow problems when interaction with
libavfilter).
Future possible plans might include:
- freely switch tracks by providing some sort of default track graph
label
- automatically enabling audio visualization
- automatically mix audio or stack video when multiple tracks are
selected at once (similar to how multiple sub tracks can be selected)
Will be helpful for the coming filter support. I planned on merging
audio/video decoding, but this will have to wait a bit longer, so only
remove the duplicate status codes.
These changes don't make too much sense without context, but are
preparation for later. Then the audio_src/video_src fields will be
actually be NULL under circumstances.
Regression caused by commit 3b95dd47. Also see commit 4c25b000. We can
either use video_next_pts and add "delay", or we just use video_pts. Any
other combination breaks. The reason why the assumption that delay==0 at
this point was wrong exactly because after displaying the first video
frame (usually done before audio resync) a new frame might be "added"
immediately, resulting in a new video_next_pts and "delay", which will
still amount to video_pts.
Fixes#2770. (The reason why display-sync was blamed in this issue is
because enabling display-sync in the options forces a prefetch by 2
instead of 1 frames for seeks/playback restart, which triggers the
issue, even if display-sync is not actually enabled. In this case,
display-sync is never enabled because the frames have a unusually high
frame duration. This is also what exposed the initial desync issue.)
Even though the timing logic is correct, it tends to mess with looping
videos and such in unappreciated ways.
It also has to be admitted that most file formats seem not to properly
define the duration of the last video frame (or libavformat does not
export it in a useful way), so whether or not we should use the demuxer
reported framerate for the last frame is questionable. (Still, why would
you essentially just discard the last frame?)
The timing logic is kept, but disabled for video with "normal" FPS
values. In particular, we want to keep it for displaying images, which
implicitly set the frame duration to 1 second by reporting 1 FPS. It's
also good for slide shows with mf://.
Fixes#2745.
vo_chain_uninit() isn't supposed to care much about the decoder
(although decoders and outputs still go strictly together, so there is
not much of an actual difference now).
Also unset track.d_video correctly.
Remove a stale declaration from dec_video.h as well.
Similar to the video path. dec_audio.c now handles decoding only. It
also looks very similar to dec_video.c, and actually contains some of
the rewritten code from it. (A further goal might be unifying the
decoders, I guess.)
High potential for regressions.
Eventually we want the VO be driven by a A->V filter, so a decoder
doesn't even have to exist. Some features definitely require a decoder
though (like reporting the decoder in use, hardware decoding, etc.), so
for each thing which accessed d_video, it has to be redecided if and how
it can access decoder state.
At least the "framedrop" property slightly changes semantics: you can
now always set this property, even if no video is active.
Some untested changes in this commit, but our bio-based distributed
test suite has to take care of this.
This moves some code related to decoding from video.c to dec_video.c,
and also removes some accesses to dec_video.c from the filtering code.
dec_video.ch is starting to make sense, and simply returns video frames
from a demuxer stream. The API exposed is also somewhat intended to be
easily changeable to move decoding to a separate thread, if we ever want
this (due to libavcodec already being threaded, I don't see much of a
reason, but it might still be helpful).
Lots of noise to remove the vfilter/vo fields from dec_video.
From now on, video filtering and output will still be done together,
summarized under struct vo_chain.
There is the question where exactly the vf_chain should go in such a
decoupled architecture. The end goal is being able to place a "complex"
filter between video decoders and output (which will culminate in
natural integration of A->V filters for natural integration of
libavfilter audio visualizations). The vf_chain is still useful for
"final" processing, such as format conversions and deinterlacing. Also,
there's only 1 VO and 1 --vf option. So having 1 vf_chain for a VO seems
ideal, since otherwise there would be no natural way to handle all these
existing options and mechanisms.
There is still some work required to truly decouple decoding.
Instead of handling this on filter chain reinit, do it directly after
the decoder. This makes the code less entangled. In particular, this
gets rid of the really weird "override params" concept in the video
filter code.
The last_format/fixed_formats have some redundance with decoder_output,
but unfortunately the latter has a slightly different use.
Basically reimplement it. The old implementation was quite stupid, and
was probably done this way because video filtering and output used to be
way less decoupled. Now we can reimplement it in a very simple way: when
backstepping, seek to current time, but keep the last frame that was
supposed to be discarded when reaching the target time. When the seek
finishes, prepend the saved frame to the video frame queue.
A disadvantage is that the new implementation fails to skip over
timeline boundaries (ordered chapters etc.), but this never worked
properly anyway. It's possible that this will be fixed some time in the
future.
This is mainly a refactor. I'm hoping it will make some things easier
in the future due to cleanly separating codec metadata and stream
metadata.
Also, declare that the "codec" field can not be NULL anymore. demux.c
will set it to "" if it's NULL when added. This gets rid of a corner
case everything had to handle, but which rarely happened.
This is another attempt at making files with sparse video frames work
better.
The problem is that you generally can't know whether a jump in video
timestamps is just a (very) long video frame, or a timestamp reset. Due
to the existence of files with sparse video frames (new frame only every
few seconds or longer), every heuristic will be arbitrary (in general,
at least).
But we can use the fact that if video is continuous, audio should also
be continuous. Audio discontinuities can be easily detected, and if that
happens, reset some of the playback state.
The way the playback state is reset is rather radical (resets decoders
as well), but it's just better not to cause too much obscure stuff to
happen here. If the A/V sync code were to be rewritten, it should
probably strictly use PTS values (not this strange time_frame/delay
stuff), which would make it much easier to detect such situations and
to react to them.
Slightly change how it is decided when a new packet should be read.
Switch to demux_read_packet_async(), and let the player "wait properly"
until required subtitle packets arrive, instead of blocking everything.
Move distinguishing the cases of passive and active reading into the
demuxer, where it belongs.
MPlayer traditionally always used the display aspect ratio, e.g. 16:9,
while FFmpeg uses the sample (aka pixel) aspect ratio.
Both have a bunch of advantages and disadvantages. Actually, it seems
using sample aspect ratio is generally nicer. The main reason for the
change is making mpv closer to how FFmpeg works in order to make life
easier. It's also nice that everything uses integer fractions instead
of floats now (except --video-aspect option/property).
Note that there is at least 1 user-visible change: vf_dsize now does
not set the display size, only the display aspect ratio. This is
because the image_params d_w/d_h fields did not just set the display
aspect, but also the size (except in encoding mode).
Helps with files that have occasional broken timestamps. For larger
discontinuities, e.g. caused by actual timestamp resets, we still want
to realign audio.
(I guess in general, this should be removed and replaced by a more
general resync-on-desync logic, but not now.)
At least I hope so.
Deriving the duration from the pts was not really correct. It doesn't
include speed adjustments, and becomes completely wrong of the user e.g.
changes the playback speed by a huge amount. Pass through the accurate
duration value by adding a new vo_frame field.
The value for vsync_offset was not correct either. We don't need the
error for the next frame, but the error for the current one. This wasn't
noticed because it makes no difference in symmetric cases, like 24 fps
on 60 Hz.
I'm still not entirely confident in the correctness of this, but it sure
is an improvement.
Also, remove the MP_STATS() calls - they're not really useful to debug
anything anymore.
This was just converting back and forth between int64_t/microseconds and
double/seconds. Remove this stupidity. The pts/duration fields are still
in microseconds, but they have no meaning in the display-sync case (also
drop printing the pts field from opengl/video.c - it's always 0).
Instead of periodically trying to enable it again. There are two cases
that can happen:
1. A random discontinuity messed everything up,
2. Things are just broken and will desync all the time
Until now, it tried to deal with case 1 - but maybe this is really rare,
and we don't really need to care about it. On the other hand, case 2 is
kind of hard to diagnose if the user doesn't use the terminal.
Seeking will reenable display-sync, so you can fix playback if case 1
happens, but still get predictable behavior in case 2.
Use the demux_set_ts_offset() added in the previous commit to base each
timeline segment to use timestamps according to its relative position
within the overall timeline. As a consequence we don't need to care
about these timestamps anymore, and everything becomes simpler.
(Another minor but delicious nugget of sanity.)
If the player sends a frame with duration==0 to the VO, it can trivially
underrun. Don't panic, but keep the correct time.
Also, returning the absolute time from vo_get_next_frame_start_time()
just to turn it into a float with relative time was silly. Rename it and
make it return what the caller needs.
