It's been missing since mplayer2 times, not sure why. It originates from
subreader.c. No analysis on whether it can be relicensed to LGPL was
done yet.
Most contributors have agreed. This claims it's based on gstreamer code,
but this was LGPL at the time (and still is). Contributors whose code
was removed were not accounted for. There are still some potentially
problematic cases:
06eee1b67 is potentially the most problematic case. Most of these
changes are gone due to mpv not using BITMAPINFOHEADER anymore. Some
of the other changes are rather trivial. If someone contests this and
claims that copyrightable changes are left, the original change can
simply be reverted.
62bfae140 has only 2 lines left: a "char *name;" struct field, and a
line that prints a message. All other code was removed. The parsing code
in particular was made declarative, which replaced reading this element
explicitly (and other elements, see 1b22101c77). I'm putting the log
message under HAVE_GPL, but I don't think the declaration is
copyrightable, or the mere concept of reading this element. Redoing the
other 2 lines of code would result in the same program text.
d41e860ba was applied by someone who (potentially) disagreed. The patch
itself is from someone who did agree, though. It's unknown whether the
applier changed the patch. But it seems unlikely, and the change was
mostly rewritten.

The only definitions from MPlayer code are the CONTROL_* defines (added
in 7a2eec4b as part of libao2 - not part of libao), and MP_NOPTS_VALUE,
which was added in e6338c58. The latter is by "michael", who has agreed
under the condition that the core is LGPL, which has not happened yet,
but considering the macro definition used to be different, has the same
value and similar name to libavformat's AV_NOPTS_VALUE (which existed
first, and as LGPL), and that this almost certainly not copyrightable,
I'm assuming that this is fine.
Reduces the ifdeffery, which is good and will avoid silent breakages, or
weird behavior if a lib is omitted.
Also reorder the x11_common.c include statements.
All contributors of the code used for these files agreed to the LGPL
relicensing.
There are some unaccounted contributors, but all of their code was
completely removed before. (The only exception is one contributor whose
only line left was "#include <string.h>". I don't know if that's
copyrightable, but it wasn't needed anyway, so just remove it.)
These files started out as libvo/sub.* (renamed to sub/sub.*, then
renamed again to sub/osd.*). They used to contain code for rendering
the OSD (as in, actual pixel manipulation and text layouting). But
later all this code was dropped, and libass was used to render the OSD
instead. Actual subtitle rendering was reimplemented in other files
(the old subtitle rendering path is completely gone).
One potential problem are the option declarations, which makes this
harder, as these options involve more history. But it turns out most of
them were reimplemented since 80270218cb, rather than taken from old
code. (Although not all - but the rest covered by relicensing
agreements.)
This also affects osd_state.h, which was apparently incorrectly implied
to be LGPL.
All contributors have agreed.
Compared to sd_ass.c, this has a pretty simple history:
av_sub.c -> sub/av_sub.c -> sub/sd_lavc.c
At one point, some code from spudec.c was added to it, but it was
removed again later.
All contributors of the code used for sd_ass.c agreed to the LGPL
relicensing. Some code has a very chaotic history, due to MPlayer
subtitle handling being awful, chaotic, and having been refactored a
dozen of times. Most of the subtitle code was actually rewritten from
scratch (a few times), and the initial sd_ass.c was pretty tiny. So we
should be fine, but it's still a good idea to look at this closely.
Potentially problematic cases of old code leaking into sd_ass.c are
mentioned below.
Some code originates from demux_mkv. Most of this was added by eugeni,
and later moved into mplayer.c or mpcommon.c. The old demux_mkv ASS/SSA
subtitle code is somewhat dangerous from a legal perspective, because it
involves 2 patches by a certain Tristan/z80, who disagreed with LGPL,
and who told us to "rewrite" parts we need. These patches were for
converting the ASS packet data to the old MPlayer text subtitle data
structures. None of that survived in the current code base.
Moving the subtitle handling out of demux_mkv happened in the following
commits: bdb6a07d2a, de73d4dd97, 61e4a80191. The code by
z80 was removed in b44202b69f.
At this time, the z80 code was located in mplayer.c and subreader.c.
The code was fully removed, being unnecessary due to the entire old
subtitle rendering code being removed. This adds a ass_to_plaintext(),
function, which replaces the old ASS tag stripping code in
sub_add_text(), which was based on the z80 code. The new function was
intended to strip ASS tags in a correct way, instead of somehow
dealing with other subtitle types (like HTML-style SRT tags), so it
was written from scratch.
Another potential issue is the --sub-fix-timing option is based on
-overlapsub added in d459e64463. But the implementation is new, and
no code from that commit is used in sd_ass.c. The new implementation
started out in 64b1374a44. (The following commit, bd45eb468c
removes the original code that was replaced.) The code was later
moved into sd_ass.c.
The --sub-fps option has a similar history.
Somewhat chaostic history: libass/ass_mp.* -> ass_mp.* -> sub/ass_mp.*
As far as I can tell, everyone who ever touched these files has agreed
to the relicensing.
IMMDeviceEnumerator_RegisterEndpointNotificationCallback() will start
listening for notifications, and is the point at which callbacks can
start firing. These callbacks will read the fields we set after the
register calls, which is a potential race condition. Move it upwards.
There is explicit code to handle the libmpv case, but it expects that
a dispatch queue is running. This is not necessarily the case. E.g.
edit the simple.c mpv example not to do any playback and to destroy
the mpv handle immediately. It will freeze on exit, because nothing
will release the mpv_handle.
I'm not sure how this should be fixed, so disable it for now in
library mode.
When the format of the subtitle bitmaps changes, such as with taking
screenshots with vo_vaapi (RGBA for the VO vs. Y8 for screenshots), the
cache image obviously needs to be recreated.
Fixes#4325.
due to the System inherent fullscreen animation the option and the
actual fullscreen state can be out of sync, leading to a wrongly
reported unfs window size in the time of the animation.
just always fall back to the window size, we keep track of, when we
either are in fullscreen or are currently switching to it.
Fixes#4323
Wayland is still too amateurish, and multiple features don't work,
including critical ones. There is no solution in sight, so prefer X11.
(Which seems to mostly work ok via xwayland.)
Once all problems are solved, the defaults can be switched back.
When doing harder filtering not require a space after : results
in lines with a clock (like 10:05) to be taken as a speaker label.
So require a space after : even when doing harder filtering as
missing space is very uncommon.
Some like to add text in parentheses in the speaker label,
like XXX (loud): or just (loud):
allow parentheses when doing harder filtering
The license text refers a "above copyright notice", so I guess it'd be
good to actually provide such a notice.
Add the license to some files that were missing it (since in theory, our
Copyright file says that such files are LGPL by default).
Remove the questionable remarks about the license in the client API.
It's all explained in the DOCS changes. Although this option was always
kind of obscure and pointless. Until it is removed, the only reason for
setting it would be to raise the static default limit, so change its
default to INT_MAX so that it does nothing by default.
The previous commit set "mpctx->playback_active = false;" before unload
hooks were processed. This was intentional, but could in theory cause
playback_active to be set to true again, and actually it's plain wrong
if playback was exited in the middle it. There needs to be something
else that forces playback_active to be set to false while in this
unloading state.
Make mpv_observe_property() work correctly on them even with
--keep-open-pause=no.
This also changes the situations in which the screensaver is
enabled/disabled subtly.
Merge the pause_player() and unpause_player() functions. Make sure the
pause events are emitted properly. We can now set the internal pause
state based on a predicate, instead of e.g. handle_pause_on_low_cache()
making a mess to trigger the internal pause state as wanted.
Preparation for some more changes.
Instead of pausing if --keep-open is active, stop
at end but continue playing if seeking backwards.
And then stop again when end is reached.

Over the PR, the option was renamed, and the manpage additions were
slightly changed/enhanced.
