- Say built-in which is more common than builtin
- Move "By default" because only the key to open the console is
customizable, and fix the punctuation and case of the sentence
- ` opens the console, not ´
- Remove the sentences that explains which user script console.lua is
based on since it's no longer relevant now that the console has been
part of mpv for over 2 years.
Now that a separate --cover-art-whitelist option exists, files like
cover.jpg are loaded even without setting --cover-art-auto to fuzzy, so
only load files that have exactly the media filename by default, since
fuzzy loading is probably more likely to load unwanted images than to
load cover art that the user intended to display, especially if you play
audio files with a short filename like a.mp3.
This allows more fine grained control over which cover art to load. With
--cover-art-auto=exact and --cover-art-whitelist=yes, you can now load
cover art with the exact media filename and the whitelisted filenames,
but not cover art that contains the media filename
(--cover-art-auto=fuzzy).
This adds a section to the documentation to explain how resuming
playback works, and in particular it explains how it affects which
playlist entry mpv starts playing from, since this feature was only
implied in the --playlist-start documentation.
It also groups the documentation of the watch later options together to
make them easier to find.
Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), aka Freesync or Adaptive Sync can be used
with DRM by setting the VRR_ENABLED property on a crtc if the
connector reports that it is VRR_CAPABLE. This is a useful feature
for us as it is common to play 24/25/50 fps content on displays that
are nominally locked to 60Hz. VRR can allow this content to play at
native framerates.
This is a simple change as we just need to check the capability
and set the enabled property if requested by the user. I've defaulted
it to disabled for now, but it might make sense to default to auto
in the long term.
The documentation's current discussion of hwdec usage is out of date,
and unnecessarily pessemistic when applied to modern hardware. The
reality is that modern APIs on modern hardware produce reasonable
results and there's no need to pretend otherwise. The current language
that tries to drive people away from using hwdecs at all leads to them
making bad choices when they do try to use it.
Let's also make it clearer that users should use vo=gpu with hwdecs
rather than vo=vaapi or vo=vdpau. Even the existing admonitions have
proven insufficient, so let's strengthen that language.
There are two major ways of going about this:
1. Expose the native ra_gl/ra_pl/ra_d3d11 objects to the pre-existing
hwdec mappers, and then add code in vo_gpu_next to rewrap those
ra_tex objects into pl_tex.
2. Wrap the underlying pl_opengl/pl_d3d11 into a ra_pl object and expose
it to the hwdec mappers, then directly use the resulting pl_tex.
I ultimately opted for approach 1 because it enables compatibility with
more hardware decoders, specifically including ones that use native
OpenGL calls currently. The second approach only really works with
cuda_vk and vaapi_pl.
I was initially hesitant to link to an external article from the manpage
but a lot of other places in the man page already do something like
this, and it really makes more sense to have this as a wiki article
rather than trying to keep the manpage up-to-date by hand, since this
evolves quickly and the two are expected to converge over time.
The stop-screensaver option is currently limited to a simple yes/no
option. While the no option does always disable mpv trying to stop the
screensaver, yes does not mean the screensaver is always stopped. The
screensaver will be enabled again depending on certain conditions (like
if the player is paused). Simply introduce a new value for this option,
always, which does exactly what the name implies: the screensaver will
always be disabled.
- Make it clearer that playback_only affects subprocess' behavior when
the playback of the current playlist entry terminates, rather than
when mpv quits.
- Explain when status is positive and when it is negative.
- Replace "exited gracefully" in status' and error_string's
documentation with "terminated normally" so it can't be misinterpreted
as exiting successfully.
- Reword the playback_only warning
We have a few examples with vf=rotate=90, but libavfilter's rotate
accepts radians - not degrees, so a value of 90 is valid but misleading
because it's not 90 degrees.
Change the value of 90 at those examples.
Also replace "vf-add=hflip" with "vf add hflip", since that example
lists commands, not options, to run.
When utils.get_user_path was added, the expand-path command didn't
exist. Now it does, so remove the C code, make it a trivial wrapper.
Keep this function for backward compat to not break scripts, but
technically it's not required anymore.
Currently the profile-restore field is intentionally omitted if it
holds the default value (i.e. no values are stored for the profile,
and trying to restore would only warn).
See m_config_get_profiles at command.c .
Changes:
- rewrite to use new internal MPV API;
- code refactoring;
- fix buffers size calculations;
- buffer set to auto;
- reset() - clean/reinit device only after errors;
Previously, the sub-visibility option changed the visibility of all
subtitles including secondary ones. This meant that it was not possible
to only display secondary subtitles while hiding the primary ones. This
modifies the sub-visibility option so that it only affects primary
subtitles which allows only secondary subtitles to be displayed.
This reverts commit 04f0b0abe4.
It's not a good idea to unify the names only for visibility, while
keeping secondary-* for everything else.
This needs a bit more thought before we allow secondary sub to be
visible on its own.
Adds --sub-visibility choices 'primary-only' for only displaying the
primary subtitle track, and 'secondary-only' for only displaying
secondary subtitle track.
Removes --secondary-sub-visibility and displays a message telling the
user to use --sub-visibility=yes/primary-only instead.
These changes make it so that the default 'sub-visibility' bind 'v'
cycles through all the 'sub-visibility' choices, 'no', 'yes',
'primary-only', and 'secondary-only'.
The AO provides a way for mpv to directly submit audio to the PipeWire
audio server.
Doing this directly instead of going through the various compatibility
layers provided by PipeWire has the following advantages:
* It reduces complexity of going through the compatibility layers
* It allows a richer integration between mpv and PipeWire
(for example for metadata)
* Some users report issues with the compatibility layers that to not
occur with the native AO
For now the AO is ordered after all the other relevant AOs, so it will
most probably not be picked up by default.
This is for the following reasons:
* Currently it is not possible to detect if the PipeWire daemon that mpv
connects to is actually driving the system audio.
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/1835)
* It gives the AO time to stabilize before it is used by everyone.

Useful to strip dolbyvision from the output, in cases where the user
does not want it applied. Doing this as a video filter gives users the
abiilty to easily toggle this stripping at runtime in a way that
properly propagates to any (potentially stateful) VO.
It also thematically fits the rest of the options in vf_format, which
are similarly concerned with modifying the video image parameters.
This merges the old desaturation control options into a single
enumeration, with the goal of both simplifying how these options work
and also making this list more extensible (including, notably, new
options only supported by vo_gpu_next).
For the hybrid option, I decided to port the (slightly tweaked) values
from libplacebo's pre-refactor defaults, rather than the old values we
had in mpv, to more visually match the look of the vo_gpu_next hybrid.
Merge --gamut-clipping and --gamut-warning into a single option,
--gamut-mapping-mode, better corresponding to the new vo_gpu_next APIs
and allowing us to easily extend this option as new modes are added in
the future.
Not all deprecated symbols were removed. Only three events were removed for now
since these are not used internally.
This bumps the library version to 2.0.
Previously OSD was always displayed on {ch,pl}_{next,prev} left-click,
and seekbar-hover-chapter was always enabled and with fixed format.
Now it can be controlled with:
- chapters_osd, playlist_osd: yes/no (only affects left-click).
- chapter_fmt: lua string.format template, or "no" to disable.
Fixes#4675
The audio rewrite in d27ad96542 originally
broke this ao. However, 0ac724f002 fixed
and the documentation was never updated to reflect that. OpenAL has
worked fine for a while not. Just remove this sentence.
Completely untested, since Linux still can't into HDR in 2021. Somebody
please make sure it works.
Technically covers #8219, since gpu-context=drm can be combined with
vo=gpu-next.
Looking at this again I'm not sure it does anything useful at all. The
man page entry is also wrong: `bicubic` is not affected, only
`bicubic_fast`, and those filters are not configurable anyways.
So this would only ever be a debugging option, and I don't see a
pressing need for it.
No interface-change.rst update because it only just got added anyways.
As discussed in #8799, this will eventually replace vo_gpu. However, it
is not yet complete. Currently missing:
- OpenGL contexts
- hardware decoding
- blend-subtitles=video
- VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT
However, it's usable enough to cover most use cases, and as such is
enough to start getting in some crucial testing.
