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.
Especially with other components (libavcodec, OSX stuff), the thread
list can get quite populated. Setting the thread name helps when
debugging.
Since this is not portable, we check the OS variants in waf configure.
old-configure just gets a special-case for glibc, since doing a full
check here would probably be a waste of effort.
Because 1) Lua is terrible, and 2) popen() is terrible. Unfortunately,
since Unix is also terrible, this turned out more complicated than I
hoped. As a consequence and to avoid that this code has to be maintained
forever, add a disclaimer that any function in Lua's utils module can
disappear any time. The complexity seems a bit ridiculous, especially
for a feature so far removed from actual video playback, so if it turns
out that we don't really need this function, it will be dropped again.
The motivation for this commit is the same as with 8e4fa5fc.
Note that there is an "#ifndef __GLIBC__". The GNU people are very
special people and thought it'd be convenient to actually declare
"environ", even though the POSIX people, which are also very special
people, state that no header declares this and that the user has to
declare this manually. Since the GNU people overtook the Unix world with
their very clever "embrace, extend, extinguish" strategy, but not 100%,
and trying to build without _GNU_SOURCE is hopeless; but since there
might be Unix environments which support _GNU_SOURCE features partially,
this means that in practice "environ" will be randomly declared or not
declared by system headers. Also, gcc was written by very clever people
too, and prints a warning if an external variable is declared twice (I
didn't check, but I suppose redeclaring is legal C, and not even the gcc
people are clever enough to only warn against a definitely not legal C
construct, although sometimes they do this), ...and since we at mpv hate
compiler warnings, we seek to silence them all. Adding a configure test
just for a warning seems too radical, so we special-case this against
__GLIBC__, which is hopefully not defined on other libcs, especially not
libcs which don't implement all aspects of _GNU_SOURCE, and redefine
"environ" on systems even if the headers define it already (because they
support _GNU_SOURCE - as I mentioned before, the clever GNU people wrote
software THAT portable that other libcs just gave up and implemented
parts of _GNU_SOURCE, although probably not all), which means that
compiling mpv will print a warning about "environ" being redefined, but
at least this won't happen on my system, so all is fine. However, should
someone complain about this warning, I will force whoever complained
about this warning to read this ENTIRE commit message, and if possible,
will also force them to eat a printed-out copy of the GNU Manifesto, and
if that is not enough, maybe this person could even be forced to
convince the very clever POSIX people of not doing crap like this:
having the user to manually declare somewhat central symbols - but I
doubt it's possible, because the POSIX people are too far gone and only
care about maintaining compatibility with old versions of AIX and HP-UX.
Oh, also, this code contains some subtle and obvious issues, but writing
about this is not fun.
This gets rid of this warning:
Could not update timestamps for skipped samples.
This required an API addition to FFmpeg (otherwise it would instead
doing arithmetic on the timestamps itself), so whether it works depends
on the FFmpeg version.
This warning makes absolutely no sense. Passing an empty string to
printf-like functions is perfectly fine. In the OSD case, it just sets
an empty message, practically clearing the OSD.
Use libwaio to read from pipes (stdin or named pipes) on Windows. This
liberates us from nasty issues, such as pipes (as created by most
programs) not being possible to read in a non-blocking or event-driven
way. Although it would be possible to do that in a somewhat sane way
on Vista+, it's still not easy, and on XP it's especially hard. libwaio
handles these things for us.
Move pipe.c to pipe-unix.c, and remove Windows specific things. Also
adjust the input.c code to make this work cleanly.
Replace select() usage with poll() (and reduce code duplication).
Also, while we're at it, drop --disable-audio-select, since it has the
wrong name anyway. And I have doubts that this is needed anywhere. If
it is, it should probably fallback to doing the right thing by default,
instead of requiring the user to do it manually. Since nobody has done
that yet, and since this configure option has been part of MPlayer ever
since ao_oss was added, it's probably safe to say it's not needed.
The '#ifdef SNDCTL_DSP_GETOSPACE' was pointless, since it's already used
unconditionally in another place.
The oldest supported FFmpeg release doesn't provide
av_vdpau_alloc_context(). With these versions, the application has no
other choice than to hard code the size of AVVDPAUContext. (On the other
hand, there's av_alloc_vdpaucontext(), which does the same thing, but is
FFmpeg specific - not sure if it was available early enough, so I'm not
touching it.)
Newer FFmpeg and Libav releases require you to call this function, for
ABI compatibility reasons. It's the typcal lakc of foresight that make
FFmpeg APIs terrible. mpv successfully pretended that this crap didn't
exist (ABI compat. is near impossible to reach anyway) - but it appears
newer developments in Libav change the function from initializing the
struct with all-zeros to something else, and mpv vdpau decoding would
stop working as soon as this new work is relewased.
So, add a configure test (sigh).

If the Xrandr configuration changes, re-read it. So if you change
display modes or screen configuration, it will update the framedrop
refresh rate accordingly.
This passes the rootwin to XRRSelectInput(), which may or may not be
allowed. But it works, and the documentation (which is worse than used
toilet paper, great job Xorg) doesn't forbid it, or in fact say anything
about what the window parameter is even used for.
This is always included in the Xorg development headers. Strictly
speaking it's not necessarily available with other X implementations,
but these are hopefully all dead.
Drop use of the ancient XF86VM, and use the slightly less ancient Xrandr
extension to retrieve the refresh rate. Xrandr has the advantage that it
supports multiple monitors (at least the modern version of it).
For now, we don't attempt any dynamic reconfiguration. We don't request
and listen to Xrandr events, and we don't notify the VO code of changes
in the refresh rate. (The later works by assuming that X coordinates map
directly to Xrandr coordinates, which probably is wrong with compositing
window manager, at least if these use complicated transformations. But I
know of no API to handle this.)
It would be nice to drop use of the Xinerama extension too, but
unfortunately, at least one EWMH feature uses Xinerama screen numbers,
and I don't know how that maps to Xrandr outputs.
This was needed by very old (0.9) versions only. Get rid of it.
Unfortunately, I can't cross-check with the original bug report, since
the bug URL leads to this:
Internal Server Error
TracError: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/lennart/svn/trac/pulseaudio/VERSION'
This fixes the build on platform where the atomic calls can't be turned into
lock-free instructions and thus need the external libatomic library (e.g. mips).
The error log callback was not thread-safe and not library-safe. And
apparently there were some other details that made it not library-safe,
such as a global lcms plugin registry.
Switch the the thread-safe API provided by lcms2 starting with 2.6.
Remove our approximate thread-safety hacks.
Note that lcms basically provides 2 APIs now, the old functions, and
the thread-safe alternatives whose names end with THR. Some functions
don't change, because they already have a context of some sort. Care
must be taken not to accidentally use old APIs.
If a single person complains, I will readd it. But I don't expect that
this will happen.
The main reason for removing this is that it's some of the most unclean
code remaining, it's unmaintained, and I've never ever heard of someone
using it.
This call was used limited the buffer size if installed RAM was below 16
MB. This stopped being useful a decade ago. The check could also
overflow on 32 bit systems. Just get rid of it.
Also sneak in some cosmetics.
setmode() exists on Windows/msvcrt only, so there's no need for a
config test.
I couldn't reproduce the problem with seekable pipes on wine, so axe
it. (I'm aware that it still could be an issue on real Windows.)
In at least 2 places, we want to "shift" positional parameters by a
certain amount, or remove all parameters if there are fewer parameters.
bash handled this just fine, but dash vomits upon it. POSIX shell allows
both behaviors, so we have to fix it.
Fix a comparison done with "==" instead of "=".
In my opinion, we shouldn't use atomics at all, but ok.
This switches the mpv code to use C11 stdatomic.h, and for compilers
that don't support stdatomic.h yet, we emulate the subset used by mpv
using the builtins commonly provided by gcc and clang.
This supersedes an earlier similar attempt by Kovensky. That attempt
unfortunately relied on a big copypasted freebsd header (which also
depended on much more highly compiler-specific functionality, defined
reserved symbols, etc.), so it had to be NIH'ed.
Some issues:
- C11 says default initialization of atomics "produces a valid state",
but it's not sure whether the stored value is really 0. But we rely on
this.
- I'm pretty sure our use of the __atomic... builtins is/was incorrect.
We don't use atomic load/store intrinsics, and access stuff directly.
- Our wrapper actually does stricter typechecking than the stdatomic.h
implementation by gcc 4.9. We make the atomic types incompatible with
normal types by wrapping them into structs. (The FreeBSD wrapper does
the same.)
- I couldn't test on MinGW.
This started as a bunch of smaller changes to make the old configure
script maintainable with minimum effort. It ended up as complete
rewrite, because at once point I started to like shell programming (I
hope this sickness is curable), and I wanted to see how small I can
make the configure script. The typical configure test is now 1 or 2
lines big, located in 1 or 2 places, instead of >15 lines and being
spread over 5 or 6 places.
The main "trick" is factoring the tests into a few generic, commonly
needed tests, instead of writing everything manually.
A lot of effort was spent on making the waf based build-system work
properly on all supported platforms, while the old configure script was
neglected. It seems that nobody maintains the non-Linux parts of the
configure script anymore, and all improvements go into the waf scripts.
Thus it makes no sense anymore to maintain the non-Linux parts. They're
just dead weight. Remove them completely.
Also apply some additional simplifications. For example, listing
enabled/disabled VO modules seems like a waste of effort.
waf has a proper test, but no test was added to old-configure.
This means that on OSX, old-configure is not supposed to work anymore.
But still allow it to compile cleanly on OSX.
Not needed anymore. I'm not opposed to having asm, but inline asm is too
much of a pain, and it was planned long ago to eventually get rid fo all
inline asm uses.
For the note, the inline asm use that was removed with the previous
commits was almost worthless. It was confined to video filters, and most
video filtering is now done with libavfilter. Some mpv filters (like
vf_pullup) actually redirect to libavfilter if possible.
If asm is added in the future, it should happen in the form of external
files.
Mainly meant to apply simple VapourSynth filters to video at runtime.
This has various restrictions, which are listed in the manpage.
Additionally, this actually copies video frames when converting frame
references from mpv to VapourSynth, and a second time when going from
VapourSynth to mpv. This is inefficient and could probably be easily
improved. But for now, this is simpler, and in fact I'm not sure if
we even can references VapourSynth frames after the core has been
destroyed.
I have no tolerance for this garbage anymore. There are tons of issues
with it (see e.g. previous commit), and there is no reason to use it
either. Use Libav git, or Libav 10 when it's released.
This also drops support for earlier FFmpeg release, which have exactly
the same issues as Libav 9. FFmpeg 2.1.4 is still supported, because
it's the latest release, and is reasonably recent. (Although this will
probably also be dropped as soon as FFmpeg 2.2 is released.)
Assumed version table (lots of nonsensical numbers):
FFmpeg 2.1.4 FFmpeg (n2.2-rc2) Libav (v10_beta2)
lavu 52.48.101 52.66.100 53.3.0
lavc 55.39.101 55.52.102 55.34.1
lavf 55.19.104 55.33.100 55.12.0
lsws 2.5.101 2.5.101 2.1.2
lavi 3.90.100 4.2.100 4.2.0
lswr 0.17.104 0.18.100 -
lavr 1.1.0 1.2.0 1.1.0
libpostproc and libavdevice are not interesting.
Following this commit, code needed just to support old Libav versions
will start to be removed.
The main incompatibility was that Libav didn't have av_opt_set_int_list.
But since that function is excessively ugly and idiotic (look how it
handles types), I'm not missing it much. Use an aformat filter instead
to handle the functionality that was indirectly provided by it. This is
similar to how vf_lavfi works.
The other incompatibility was channel handling. Libav consistently uses
channel layouts only, why ffmpeg still requires messing with channel
counts to some degree. Get rid of most channel count uses (and hope
channel layouts are "exact" enough). Only in one case FFmpeg fails with
a runtime check if we feed it AVFrames with channel count unset.
Another issue were AVFrame accessor functions. FFmpeg introduced these
for ABI compatibility with Libav. I refuse to use them, and it's not my
problem if FFmpeg doesn't manage to provide a stable ABI for fields
provided both by FFmpeg and Libav.
