Refactor file local options handling: instead of making all options
implicitly file local between loading a file and terminating playback,
explicitly make options file local which are required to be file local.
Or in other words, introduce a M_SETOPT_BACKUP flag, which forces file
local-ness when setting an option, and use this for file local command
line options, per-file config files, and per-protocol/extension/vo/ao
profiles.
In particular, this changes the "vf" input command such that video
filters stay permanent even when going to the next file in the playlist.
The underlying reason for this is that the "vf" command uses the option
setting command. This influences the "af" command as well.
This has two goals:
1. Getting rid of global variables to make the core library-safe.
2. Getting rid of all the MSGT_* constants and the inconsistent
prefixes spread throughout the source code.
Both goals are not immediately reached with this commit. It's a huge
transition that will take time. There are over >2500 mp_msg calls in the
source, which all have to be replaced for this to work.
The inconsistent prefixes are in particular annoying. Lots of code
manually prefixes messages, e.g. mp_msg(MSGT_VO, MSGL_V, "[vo] ...").
Sometimes the prefixes don't even follow this convention (for example
vo_direct3d.c uses "<vo_direct3d>" as prefix). This commit allows
automatically adding prefixes on request, so consistency will
hopefully improve.
For now, this commit adds unused stuff, and behavior should not change.
In mplayer.c, move the GetCpuCaps() call, because that used mp_msg()
before mp_msg_init() was run.
Move the decoder parts from vo_vdpau.c to a new file vdpau_old.c. This
file is named so because because it's written against the "old"
libavcodec vdpau pseudo-decoder (e.g. "h264_vdpau").
Add support for the "new" libavcodec vdpau support. This was recently
added and replaces the "old" vdpau parts. (In fact, Libav is about to
deprecate and remove the "old" API without deprecation grace period,
so we have to support it now. Moreover, there will probably be no Libav
release which supports both, so the transition is even less smooth than
we could hope, and we have to support both the old and new API.)
Whether the old or new API is used is checked by a configure test: if
the new API is found, it is used, otherwise the old API is assumed.
Some details might be handled differently. Especially display preemption
is a bit problematic with the "new" libavcodec vdpau support: it wants
to keep a pointer to a specific vdpau API function (which can be driver
specific, because preemption might switch drivers). Also, surface IDs
are now directly stored in AVFrames (and mp_images), so they can't be
forced to VDP_INVALID_HANDLE on preemption. (This changes even with
older libavcodec versions, because mp_image always uses the newer
representation to make vo_vdpau.c simpler.)
Decoder initialization in the new code tries to deal with codec
profiles, while the old code always uses the highest profile per codec.
Surface allocation changes. Since the decoder won't call config() in
vo_vdpau.c on video size change anymore, we allow allocating surfaces
of arbitrary size instead of locking it to what the VO was configured.
The non-hwdec code also has slightly different allocation behavior now.
Enabling the old vdpau special decoders via e.g. --vd=lavc:h264_vdpau
doesn't work anymore (a warning suggesting the --hwdec option is
printed instead).
Change how m_config is initialized. Make it more uniform; now all
m_config structs are intialized in exactly the same way. Make sure
there's only a single m_option[] array defining the options, and keep
around the pointer to the optstruct default value, and the optstruct
size as well. This will allow reconstructing the option default values
in the following commit.
In particular, stop pretending that the handling of some special options
(like --profile, --v, and some others) is in any way elegant, and make
them explicit hacks. This is really more readable and easier to
understand than what was before, and simplifies the code.
Prevents some awkwardness in a later commit, and makes the code more
uniform with other places where MPOpts is accessed.
This is a pretty annoying commit (touches tons of lines all over the
place), but it hurts only once.
Remove the (now unused) code for determining correct-pts mode based on
the demuxer in use. Change its description in the manpage to reflect
what this option does now.
In general, this warning can hint to actual bugs. We don't enable it
yet, because it would conflict with some unmerged code, and we should
check with clang too (this commit was done by testing with gcc).
This also affects --audiofile. The previous behavior wasn't really
useful. There are even separate switches for that: --audio-demuxer and
--sub-demuxer.
Make the VF/VO/AO option parser available to audio filters. No audio
filter uses this yet, but it's still a quite intrusive change.
In particular, the commands for manipulating filters at runtime
completely change. We delete the old code, and use the same
infrastructure as for video filters. (This forces complete
reinitialization of the filter chain, which hopefully isn't a problem
for any use cases. The old code forced reinitialization too, but it
could potentially allow a filter to cache things; e.g. consider loaded
ladspa plugins and such.)
The AO creation part was split into two separate parts (one calling
ao_create and one calling ao_init). This didn't really have good
reasons, and obfuscates how AO creation works. Put them together.
Nothing should change from user perspective.
mpv --vo=opengl:help now works.
Remove the vo_opengl inline help text. The new code can list option
names for you, but that's it. Refer to the manpage if you have trouble.
Instead of handling colorspaces with VFCTRLs/VOCTRLs, make them part of
the normal video format negotiation. The colorspace is passed down like
other video params with config/reconfig calls.
Forcing colorspaces (via the --colormatrix options and properties) is
handled differently too: if it's changed, completely reinit the video
chain. This is slower and requires a precise seek to the same position
to perform an update, but it's simpler and less bug-prone. Considering
switching the colorspace at runtime by user-interaction is a rather
obscure feature, this is a good change.
The colorspace VFCTRLs and VOCTRLs are still kept. The VOs rely on it,
and would have to be changed to get rid of them. We'll do that later,
and convert them incrementally instead of in one go.
Note that controlling the output range now always works on VO level.
Basically, this means you can't get vf_scale to output full-range YUV
for whatever reason. If that is really wanted, it should be a vf_scale
option. the previous behavior didn't make too much sense anyway.
This commit fixes a few bugs (such as playing RGB video and converting
that to YUV with vf_scale - a recent commit broke this and forced the
VO to display YUV as RGB if possible), and might introduce some new
ones.
This was useless for anything but the raw demuxers. In most cases, this
would most likely lead to display of bogus duration values, because the
bitrates used are per-track, not the total file bitrate. There was
actually no case left where this code was helpful.
Note that demux_lavf has its own code for this using the total file
bitrate. Also, mplayer.c can calculate the playback percentage from
current file position / current file size. This is not removed.
All demuxers make a reasonable effort to set packet timestamps, and thus
support correct-pts mode. This commit also implicitly switches
demux_rawvideo to correct-pts mode.
We still allow demuxers to disable correct-pts mode in theory.
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.
Before this commit, we tried to play along with libavformat and tried
to pretend that attached pictures are video streams with a single
frame, and that the frame magically appeared at the seek position when
seeking. The playback core would then switch to a mode where the video
has ended, and the "remaining" audio is played.
This didn't work very well:
- we needed a hack in demux.c, because we tried to read more packets in
order to find the "next" video frame (libavformat doesn't tell us if
a stream has ended)
- switching the video stream didn't work, because we can't tell
libavformat to send the packet again
- seeking and resuming after was hacky (for some reason libavformat sets
the returned packet's PTS to that of the previously returned audio
packet in generic code not related to attached pictures, and this
happened to work)
- if the user did something stupid and e.g. inserted a deinterlacer by
default, a picture was never displayed, only an inactive VO window)
- same when using a command that reconfigured the VO (like switching
aspect or video filters)
- hr-seek didn't work
For this reason, handle attached pictures as separate case with a
separate video decoding function, which doesn't read packets. Also,
do not synchronize audio to video start in this case.
The code touched by this commit makes sure that DVD subtitle tracks
known by libdvdread but not known by demux_lavf can be selected and
displayed properly. These subtitle tracks have the first packet
some time late in the packet stream, so that libavformat won't
immediately recognize them, and will add the track as soon as the
first packet is seen during normal demuxing.
demux_mpg used to handle this elegantly: you just set the MPEG ID of
the stream you wanted. demux_lavf couldn't do this, so it was emulated
with a DEMUXER_CTRL. This commit changes it so that new streams are
selected by default (if autoselect is enabled), and the playloop
simply can take appropriate action before the lower layer throws away
the first packet.
This also changes the demux_lavf behavior that subtitle packets are
always demuxed, even if not needed. (They were immediately thrown away,
so there was no advantage to this.)
Further, this adds the ability to demux.c to deal with demuxing more
than one stream of a kind at once. (Though currently it's not useful.)
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.
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.
Removing this code doesn't change anything. All remaining audio decoders
are well-behaved enough to not overwrite sh_audio->pts if they don't
know the PTS. And if they don't know the PTS, the d_audio->last_pts
field can't contain any usable value either, because both fields contain
theame value: the last known valid PTS found in an audio packet.
As the comment n the removed code says, this was once needed for
something subtitle related. This code has been cleaned up long ago,
so at least the original reason for it is gone.
Partial packet reads were needed because the video/audio parsers were
working on top of them. So it could happen that a parser read a part of
a packet, and returned that to the decoder. With libavformat/libavcodec,
packets are already parsed, and everything is much simpler.
Most of the simplifications in ad_spdif could have been done earlier.
Remove some other stuff as well, like the questionable slave mode start
time reporting (could be replaced by proper code, but we don't bother).
Remove the unused skip_audio_frame() functionality as well (it was used
by old demuxers). Some functions become private to demux.c, like
demux_fill_buffer(). Introduce new packet read functions, which have
simpler semantics. Packets returned from them are owned by the caller,
and all packets in the demux.c packet queue are considered unread.
Remove special code that dropped subtitle packets with size 0. This
used to be needed because it caused special cases in the old code.
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 code used to be part of the demux_mpg and vobsub specific code
path. Then (just recently) the different code paths for subtitles were
merged, so this code became active even for demux_lavf and demux_mkv.
As far as I can tell, this code won't help much, and at least sd_lavc
(which will be used for DVD subs and other potentially weird things) can
deal with NOPTS values.
Remove the special handling for mng/mkv. These don't profit at all from
no-correct-pts mode, and even removing the mkv specific code makes mkv
work better (wow!).
Don't check for (int)fps == 1000. I don't know where this value comes
from. Maybe it was once a special value which triggered certain
behavior, but the code for that must have gone away. The only way to
trigger this value would be by coincidence if two frames are 1 ms apart.
Otherwise, the behavior should be exactly the same, except for some
removed messages.
The demux_open as well as demux_open_withparams calls don't use the
stream selection parameters anymore, so remove them everywhere.
Completes the previous commit.
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.
Update Cocoa parts to remove usage of the mp_fifo internal API to send events
to the core and use the input context directly. This is to follow commits the
work in commits 70a8079c and d603e73c.
For some reason mp_fifo specifically handled double clicks, and other
than that was a pointless wrapper around input.c functionality.
Move the double click handling into input.c, and get rid of mp_fifo. Add
some compatibility wrappers, because so much VO code uses these
functions. Where struct mp_fifo is still used it's just a casted
struct input_ctx.
