The options don't change, but they're now declared and used privately by
demux_mkv.c. This also brings with it a minor refactor of the subpreroll
seek handling - merge the code from playloop.c into demux_mkv.c. The
change in demux.c is pretty much equivalent as well.
Remove the colorspace-related top-level options, add them to vf_format.
They are rather obscure and not needed often, so it's better to get them
out of the way. In particular, this gets rid of the semi-complicated
logic in command.c (most of which was needed for OSD display and the
direct feedback from the VO). It removes the duplicated color-related
name mappings.
This removes the ability to write the colormatrix and related
properties. Since filters can be changed at runtime, there's no loss of
functionality, except that you can't cycle automatically through the
color constants anymore (but who needs to do this).
This also changes the type of the mp_csp_names and related variables, so
they can directly be used with OPT_CHOICE. This probably ended up a bit
awkward, for the sake of not adding a new option type which would have
used the previous format.
This option allows the user to pass non-supported options directly to
youtube-dl, such as "--proxy URL", "--username USERNAME" and
'--password PASSWORD".
There is no sanity checking so it's possible to break things (i.e.
if you pass "--version" mpv exits with random JSON error).

Now --ass-use-margins doesn't apply to normal subtitles anymore. This is
probably the inverse from the mpv behavior users expected so far, and
thus a breaking change, so rename the option, that the user at least has
a chance to lookup the option and decide whether the new behavior is
wanted or not.
The basic idea here is:
- plain text subtitles should have a certain useful defalt behavior,
like actually using margins
- ASS subtitles should never be broken by default
- ASS subtitles should look and behave like plaintext subtitles if
the --ass-style-override=force option is used
This also subtly changes --sub-scale-with-window and adds the --ass-
scale-with-window option. Since this one isn't so important, don't
bother with compatibility.
Make it accept "," as separator, instead of only ":". Do this by using
the key-value-list parser. Before this, the option was stored as a
string, with the option parser verifying that the option value as
correct. Now it's stored pre-parsed, although the log levels still
require separate verification and parsing-on-use to some degree (which
is why the msg-level option type doesn't go away).
Because the internal type changes, the client API "native" type also
changes. This could be prevented with some more effort, but I don't
think it's worth it - if MPV_FORMAT_STRING is used, it still works the
same, just with a different separator on read accesses.
In ancient times, this was needed because it was not default, and many
VOs had problems with it. But it was always default in mpv, and all VOs
are required to deal with it. Also, running --fixed-vo=no is not useful
and just creates weird corner cases. Get rid of it.
This allows getting the log at all with --no-terminal and without having
to retrieve log messages manually with the client API. The log level is
hardcoded to -v. A higher log level would lead to too much log output
(huge file sizes and latency issues due to waiting on the disk), and
isn't too useful in general anyway. For debugging, the terminal can be
used instead.
Fixes#1472.
(Maybe these options should have been named --autofit-max and
--autofit-min, but since --autofit-larger already exists, use
--autofit-smaller for symmetry.)
--sub-scale-by-window=no attempts to keep subs always at the same pixel
size.
The implementation is a bit all over the place, because it compensates
already done scaling by an inverse scale factor, but it will probably do
its job.
Fixes#1424. (The semantics and name of --sub-scale-with-window are
kept, and this adds a new option - the name is confusingly similar, but
it's actually analogue to --osd-scale-by-window.)
This attempts to increase user-friendliness by excluding useless tags.
It should be especially helpful with mp4 files, because the FFmpeg mp4
demuxer adds tons of completely useless information to the metadata.
Fixes#1403.
- --lua and --lua-opts change to --script and --script-opts
- 'lua' default script dirs change to 'scripts'
- DOCS updated
- 'lua-settings' dir was _not_ modified
The old lua-based names/dirs still work, but display a warning.

Makeshift-solution for working around certain fontconfig issues.
With --use-text-osd=no, libass and fontconfig won't be initialized, and
fontconfig won't block everything with scanning for fonts.
It's passed with the '--format' option to youtube-dl.
If it isn't set, we don't pass '--format best' so that youtube-dl can
use the options from its configuration file.

Probably needs to be polished a bit more. Also, might require a key
binding that can set/clear the loop points in a more intuitive way.
For now, something like this can be put into input.conf to use it:
ctrl+y set ab-loop-a ${time-pos} # set A
ctrl+x set ab-loop-b ${time-pos} # set B
ctrl+c set ab-loop-a no # clear (mostly)
Fixes#1241.
Make the changes started in commit c827ae5f more eloborate, and provide
an option to control the amount of data read before the seek-target. To
achieve this, rewrite the loop that finds the lowest still acceptable
target cluster. It is now searched by time instead of file position. The
behavior (both with and without preroll option) may be different from
before this change, although it shouldn't be worse.
The change demux_mkv_read_cues() fixes a bug: when seeking after playing
normally, the code would erroneously assume that durations are set. This
doesn't happen if the first operation after loading was a seek instead
of playback.
The main need I see for this is with libmpv - it would be confusing if
some application showed up as "mpv" on whateverthehell PulseAudio uses
it for (generally it does show up on various PA GUI tools).
Note that you can't pass .cue or .edl files to it, at least not yet.
Requested in context of allowing to specify custom chapters. For that
to work well, we probably need to add some sort of chapter metadata
pseudo-demuxer.
This is probably what libmpv users want; and it also improves error
reporting (or we'd have to add a way to communicate such mid-playback
failures as events).
No development activity (or even any sign of life) for almost a year.
A replacement based on youtube-dl will probably be provided before the
next mpv release. Ask on the IRC channel if you want to test.
Simplify the Lua check too: libquvi linking against a different Lua
version than mpv was a frequent issue, but with libquvi gone, no
direct dependency uses Lua, and such a clash is rather unlikely.
Apparently using the stream index is the best way to refer to the same
streams across multiple FFmpeg-using programs, even if the stream index
itself is rarely meaningful in any way.
For Matroska, there are some possible problems, depending how FFmpeg
actually adds streams. Normally they seem to match though.
This is the first of a series of commits that will change the Cocoa way in a
way that is easily embeddable inside parent views. To reach that point common
code must avoid referencing the parent NSWindow since that could be the host
application's window.
Apparently this is what users want. When playing with normal speed,
nothing is done. When playing slower than normal, resampling is used
instead, because scaletempo (which does the pitch correction) adds
too many artifacts.
This would play some silence in case video was slower than audio. If
framedropping is already enabled, there's no other way to keep A/V
sync, short of changing audio playback speed (which would give worse
results). The --audiodrop option inserted silence if there was more
than 500ms desync.
This worked somewhat, but I think it was a silly idea after all. Whether
the playback experience is really bad or slightly worse doesn't really
matter. There also was a subtle bug with PTS handling, that apparently
caused A/V desync anyway at ridiculous playback speeds.
Just remove this feature; nobody is going to use it anyway.
It's just confusing; users are encouraged to edit input.conf instead
(changing the argument to the "add" command).
Update input.conf to keep the old behavior.
Until now, you could override only level 3 with --osd-status-msg. Extend
this, add add --osd-msg1 to --osd-msg3 (one for each OSD level). OSD
level 0 always means disable OSD, so that isn't included.
--osd-msg3 corresponds to --osd-status-msg, but they're not exactly the
same. To allow more customization, --osd-msgN do not include the OSD
symbol. The symbol can be manually added with "${osd-sym-cc}". We keep
the "old" option for some short-term compatibility.
--osd-msg1 should be particularly useful; for example you could do:
--osd-msg1='${?pause==yes:${osd-sym-cc}}'
to display a "paused" symbol when paused, and nothing during normal
playback. (Although admittedly, the syntax is quite a bit of work.)
--hls-bitrate=min/max lets you select the min or max bitrate. That's it.
Something more sophisticated might be possible, but is probably not even
worth the effort.
This inserts an automatic conversion filter if a Matroska file is marked
as 3D (StereoMode element). The basic idea is similar to video rotation
and colorspace handling: the 3D mode is added as a property to the video
params. Depending on this property, a video filter can be inserted.
As of this commit, extending mp_image_params is actually completely
unnecessary - but the idea is that it will make it easier to integrate
with VOs supporting stereo 3D mogrification. Although vo_opengl does
support some stereo rendering, it didn't support the mode my sample file
used, so I'll leave that part for later.
Not that most mappings from Matroska mode to vf_stereo3d mode are
probably wrong, and some are missing.
Assuming that Matroska modes, and vf_stereo3d in modes, and out modes
are all the same might be an oversimplification - we'll see.
See issue #1045.
Add the --cache-secs option, which literally overrides the value of
--demuxer-readahead-secs if the stream cache is active. The default
value is very high (10 seconds), which means it can act as network
cache.
Remove the old behavior of trying to pause once the byte cache runs
low. Instead, do something similar wit the demuxer cache. The nice
thing is that we can guess how many seconds of video it has cached,
and we can make better decisions. But for now, apply a relatively
naive heuristic: if the cache is below 0.5 secs, pause, and wait
until at least 2 secs are available.
Note that due to timestamp reordering, the estimated cached duration
of video might be inaccurate, depending on the file format. If the
file format has DTS, it's easy, otherwise the duration will seemingly
jump back and forth.
--demuxer-readahead-secs now controls how much the demuxer should
readahead by an amount of seconds. This is based on the raw packet
timestamps. It's not always very exact. For example, h264 in Matroska
does not store any linear timestamps (only PTS values which are going
to be reordered by the decoder), so this heuristic is usually off by
several hundred milliseconds.
The decision whether to readahead is basically OR-ed with the other
--demuxer-readahead-packets options. Change the manpage descriptions
to subtly convey these semantics.
Since the display FPS is currently detected on X11 only (and even there
it's known to be wrong on certain setups), it seems like a good idea to
make this user-configurable.
