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.
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.
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.)
These two options were supported by ALSA and OSS only. Further, their
values were specific to the respective audio systems, so it doesn't make
sense to keep them as top-level options.
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.
There was a MPOpts fullscreen field, a mp_vo_opts.fs field, and
VOFLAG_FULLSCREEN. Remove all these and introduce a
mp_vo_opts.fullscreen flag instead.
When VOs receive VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN, they are supposed to set the
current fullscreen mode to the state in mp_vo_opts.fullscreen. They
also should do this implicitly on config().
VOs which are capable of doing so can update the mp_vo_opts.fullscreen
if the actual fullscreen mode changes (e.g. if the user uses the
window manager controls). If fullscreen mode switching fails, they
can also set mp_vo_opts.fullscreen to the actual state.
Note that the X11 backend does almost none of this, and it has a
private fs flag to store the fullscreen flag, instead of getting it
from the WM. (Possibly because it has to deal with broken WMs.)
The fullscreen option has to be checked on config() to deal with
the -fs option, especially with something like:
mpv --fs file1.mkv --{ --no-fs file2.mkv --}
(It should start in fullscreen mode, but go to windowed mode when
playing file2.mkv.)

DVD playback had some trouble with PTS resets: libavformat's genpts
feature would try reading until EOF (worst case) to find a new usable
PTS in case a packet's PTS is not set correctly. Especially with slow
DVD access, this would make the player to appear frozen.
Reimplement it partially in demux_lavf.c, and use that code in the DVD
case. This is heavily "inspired" by the code in av_read_frame from
libavformat/utils.c. The difference is that we stop reading if no PTS
has been found after 50 packets (consider this a heuristic). Also, we
don't bother with the PTS wrapping and last-frame-before-EOF handling.
Even with normal PTS wraps, the player frontend will go to hell for the
duration of a frame anyway, and should recover quickly after that.
The terribleness of this commit is mostly that we duplicate libavformat
functionality, and that we suddenly need a packet queue.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Should we actually get into trouble for unproper handling of
frame-based subtitle formats, this might be the simplest way to
work this around. Also is a bit more intuitive than -subfps, which
might use an unknown, misdetected, or non-sense video FPS.
Still pretty silly, though.
demux_libass.c allows us to make subtitle format detection part of the
normal file loading process. libass has no probe function, but trying to
load the start of a file (the first 4 KB) is good enough. Hope that
libass can even handle random binary input gracefully without printing
stupid log messages, and that the libass parser doesn't accept too many
non-ASS files as input.
This doesn't handle the -subcp option correctly yet. This will be fixed
later.
subreader.c (before this commit renamed to demux_subreader.c) was
special cased to the -sub option. The plan is using the normal demuxer
codepath for all subtitle formats (so we can prefer libavformat demuxers
for most formats).
There are some subtle changes. The probe size is restricted to 32 KB
(instead of unlimitted + giving up after 100 lines of input). For
formats like MicroDVD, the video FPS isn't used anymore, because it's
not available on the subtitle demuxer level. Instead, hardcode it to
23.976 FPS (libavformat seems to do the same). The user can probably
still use -sub-fps to fix the timing. Checking the file extension for
".utf"/".utf8"/".utf-8" is simply removed (seems worthless, was in the
way, and I've never seen this anywhere).
The core didn't use these fields, and use of them was inconsistent
accross AOs. Some didn't use them at all. Some only set them; the values
were completely unused by the core. Some made full use of them.
Remove these fields. In places where they are still needed, make them
private AO state.
Remove the --abs option. It set the buffer size for ao_oss and ao_dsound
(being ignored by all other AOs), and was already marked as obsolete. If
it turns out that it's still needed for ao_oss or ao_dsound, their
default buffer sizes could be adjusted, and if even that doesn't help,
AO suboptions could be added in these cases.
Use the recently introduced screensaver VOCTRLs to control the
screensaver in the X11 backend. This means the behavior when paused
changes: the old code always kept the screensaver disabled, but now the
screensaver is reenabled on pausing.
Rename the --stop-xscreensaver option to --stop-screensaver and make it
more generic. Now it affects all backends that respond to the
screensaver VOCTRLs.
This commit addresses some issues with the users had with the previous
implementation in commit c39efb9. Here's the changes:
* Use Quartz Event Taps to remove Media Key events mpv handles from
the global OS X queue. This prevents conflicts with iTunes. I did this on
the main thread since it is mostly idling. It's the playloop thread that
actually does all the work so there is no danger of blocking the event tap
callback.
* Introduce `--no-media-keys` switch so that users can disable all of mpv's
media key handling at runtime (some prefer iTunes for example).
* Use mpv's bindings so that users can customize what the media keys do via
input.conf. Current bindings are:
MK_PLAY cycle pause
MK_PREV playlist_prev
MK_NEXT playlist_next
An additional benefit of this implementation is that it is completly handled
by the `macosx_events` file instead of `macosx_application` making the
project organization more straightforward.
This branch heavily refactors the subtitle code (both loading and
rendering), and adds support for a few new formats through FFmpeg.
We don't remove any of the old code yet. There are still some subtleties
related to subreader.c to be resolved: code page detection & conversion,
timing post-processing, UTF-16 subtitle support, support for the -subfps
option. Also, SRT reading and loading ASS via libass should be turned
into proper demuxers. (SRT is needed because Libav's is gravely broken,
and we want ASS loading via libass to cover full libass format support.
Both should be demuxers which are probed _before_ libavformat, so that
all subtitles can be loaded through the demuxer infrastructure, and
libavformat subtitles don't need to be treated in a special way.)
After killing the non functional AR support in c8fd9e5 I got much complaints so
this adds AR support back in (and it works). I am using the HIDRemote class by
Felix Schwarz and that part of the code is under the BSD license. I slightly
modified it replacing [NSApplication sharedApplication] with NSApp. The code
of the class is quite complex (probably because it had to deal with all the
edge cases with IOKit) but it works nicely as a black box.
In a later commit I'll remove the deprecation warnings caused by HIDRemote's
usage of Gestalt.
Check out `etc/input.conf` for the default bindings.
Apple Remote functionality is automatically compiled in when cocoa is enabled.
It can be disabled at runtime with the `--no-ar` option.
Most of these are rather questionable, the rest you rarely need to set
manually. You still can set all of them with -lavdopts-o (because
libavcodec has AVOptions for them).
When AAC is streamed over HTTP, using libavformat defaults is
pathetically slow. One solution for that is skipping probing and using
the mimetype to identify that it's AAC instead. This is what we did
before this commit (and ffmpeg does it too, but their logic is too
"inaccessible" for mpv).
This is still pretty fragile though. Make it a bit more robust by
requiring minimal probing. A probescore of 25 is reached after feeding
2 KB to libavformat (instead of > 500 KB for the normal probescore), so
use that. This is done only when streaming AAC from HTTP to reduce the
possibility of weird breakages for other formats.
Also reduce analyzeduration. The default analyzeduration will make
libavformat read lots of data, which makes playback start slow. So we
set analyzeduration to a low value. On the other hand, doing that for
other formats is risky, because there are unspecified effects with
certain "strange" formats (like transport streams). So we do this only
if we're streaming AAC from HTTP as well.
tl;dr libavformat is shit for media players
This can control whether demux_lavf should use the HTTP mime type to
determine the format, instead of probing the data with the libavformat
API. Do this to allow easier debugging in case the mimetype is
incorrect. (This is done only for AAC streams right now.)
Apparently useful for dumping DVD. Could also be used to rip streams
with libquvi and such, but for that there are better tools. Actually
I doubt there aren't better tools to dump DVDs, but whatever, this was
a feature request, so I don't need a good reason.
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.
This adds Mission Control fullscreen functionality to mpv. Since this doesn't
play well with many of mpv's features disable it by default. Users can activate
this feature by using `--native-fs` when starting mpv.
Fixes#34
A "watch later" command is now mapped to Shift+Q. This quits the player
and stores the playback state in a config file in ~/.mpv/watch_later/.
When calling the player with the same file again, playback is resumed
at that time position.
It's also possible to make mpv save playback state always on quit with
the --save-position-on-quit option. Likewise, resuming can be disabled
with the --no-resume-playback option.
This also attempts to save some playback parameters, like fullscreen
state or track selection. This will unconditionally override config
settings and command line options (which is probably not what you would
expect, but in general nobody will really care about this). Some things
are not backed up, because that would cause various problems. Additional
subtitle files, video filters, etc. are not stored because that would be
too hard and fragile. Volume/mute state are not stored because it would
mess up if the system mixer is used, or if the system mixer was
readjusted in the meantime.
Basically, the tradeoff between perfect state restoration and
complexity/fragility makes it not worth to attempt to implement
it perfectly, even if the result is a little bit inconsistent.
Rename the struct MPOpts "start_pause" field to "pause". Store the user-
pause state in that field, so that both runtime pause toggling and the
--pause switch change the same variable. Simplify the initialization of
pause so that using --pause and changing the file while paused is
exactly the same case (changing the file while paused doesn't unpause,
this has been always this way).
Also make it a bit more consistent. Before, starting with --pause would
reset the pause state for every file, instead of following the usual
semantics for option switches (compare with behavior of --fs).
Block X11's native key repeat, and use mpv's key repeat handling in
input.c instead.
No configure check for XKB. Even though it's an extension, it has been
part of most (all?) xlibs since 1996. If XKB appears to be missing,
just refuse enabling x11.
This is a potentially controversial change. mpv will use its own key
repeat rate, instead of X11's. This should be better, because seeking
will have a standardized "speed" (seek events per seconds when keeping
a seek key held down). It will also allow disabling key repears for
certain commands, though this is not done anywhere yet.
The new behavior can be disabled with the --native-keyrepeat option.
This option can be used to selectively reset settings when playing the
next file in the playlist (i.e. restore mplayer and mplayer2 behavior).
Might remove this option again should it turn out that nobody uses it.
