There was already an undocumented mechanism provided by
mp.set_key_bindings and other functions, but this was relatively
verbose, and also weird. It was mainly to make the OSC happy (including
being efficient and supporting weird corner cases), while the new
functions try to be a bit simpler.
This also provides a way to let users rebind script-provided commands.
(This mechanism is less efficient, because it's O(n^2) for n added key
bindings, but it shouldn't matter.)
Until now, the --no-config was explicitly checked in multiple places to
suppress loading of config files.
Add such a check to the config path code itself, and refuse to resolve
_any_ configuration file locations if the option is set.
osc.lua needs a small fixup, because it didn't handle the situation when
no path was returned. There may some of such cases in the C code too,
but I didn't find any on a quick look.
Instead, chain them.
Note that there's no logic to prevent the other event handlers to be run
from an event handler (like it's popular in GUI toolkits), because I
think that's not very useful for this purpose.
In particular, this affects drag & drop of subtitles, which uses sub_add
internally. This will make the subtitles show up immediately, instead of
requiring manual selection of the added subtitle.
Might be not so ideal when adding multiple subtitles at once, because
that leads to multiple sub_add commands, and will end up with the last
subtitle instead of the first selected. But this is a minor detail.
The initialization code was split and refactored for the libmpv changes.
One change, moving a part of cocoa initialization, accidentally broke
--force-window on OSX, which creates a VO in a certain initialization
stage. We still don't know how cocoa should behave with libmpv, so fix
this with a hack to beat it back into working. Untested.
Return the error Lua-style, instead of raising it as Lua error. This is
better, because raising errors is reserved for more "fatal" conditions.
Pretending they're exceptions and trying to do exception-style error
handling will just lead to pain in this language.
This library will export the client API functions.
Note that this doesn't allow compiling the command line player to link
against this library yet. The reason is that there's lots of weird stuff
required to setup the execution environment (mostly Windows and OSX
specifics), as well as things which are out of scope of the client API
and every application has to do on its own. However, since the mpv
command line player basically reuses functions from the mpv core to
implement these things, it's not very easy to separate the command
line player form the mpv core.
This is partial only, and it still accesses some MPContext internals.
Specifically, chapter and track lists are still read directly, and OSD
access is special-cased too.
The OSC seems to work fine, except using the fast-forward/backward
buttons. These buttons behave differently, because the OSC code had
certain assumptions how often its update code is called.
The Lua interface changes slightly.
Note that this has the odd property that Lua script and video start
at the same time, asynchronously. If this becomes an issue, explicit
synchronization could be added.
Add a client API, which is intended to be a stable API to get some rough
control over the player. Basically, it reflects what can be done with
input.conf commands or the old slavemode. It will replace the old
slavemode (and enable the implementation of a new slave protocol).
This avoids trouble if another mpv instance is initialized in the same
process.
Since timeBeginPeriod/timeEndPeriod are hereby not easily matched
anymore, use an atexit() handler to call timeEndPeriod, so that we
can be sure these calls are matched, even if we allow multiple
initializations later when introducing the client API.
This sometimes happened when changing playback speed (= reinitializing
audio) after seeking of playback start. The assertion in audio.c:441 was
triggered, because buffer_playable_samples wasn't reset correctly when
the audio buffer was cleared or shortened. The assertion is correct and
should hold up any time.
The code removed from handle_input_and_seek_coalesce() did two things:
1. If there's a queued seek, stop accepting non-seek commands, and delay
them to the next playloop iteration.
2. If a seek is executing (i.e. the seek was unqueued, and now it's
trying to decode and display the first video frame), stop accepting
seek commands (and in fact all commands that were queued after the
first seek command). This logic is disabled if seeking started longer
than 300ms ago. (To avoid starvation.)
I'm not sure why 1. would be needed. It's still possible that a command
immediately executed after a seek command sees a "seeking in progress"
state, because it affects queued seeks only, and not seeks in progress.
Drop this code, since it can easily lead to input starvation, and I'm
not aware of any disadvantages.
The logic in 2. is good to make seeking behave much better, as it
guarantees that the video display is updated frequently. Keep the core
idea, but implement it differently. Now this logic is applied to seeks
only. Commands after the seek can execute freely, and like with 1., I
don't see a reason why they couldn't. However, in some cases, seeks are
supposed to be executed instantly, so queue_seek() needs an additional
parameter to signal the need for immediate update.
One nice thing is that commands like sub_seek automatically profit from
the seek delay logic. On the other hand, hitting chapter seek multiple
times still does not update the video on chapter boundaries (as it
should be).
Note that the main goal of this commit is actually simplification of the
input processing logic and to allow all commands to be executed
immediately.
Instead of printing lines like:
Demuxer info GENRE changed to Alternative Rock
Just output all tags once they change. The assumption is that individual
tags rarely change, while all tags change in the common case.
This changes tag updates to use polling. This could be fixed later,
although the ICY stuff makes it a bit painful, so maybe it will remain
this way.
Also remove DEMUXER_CTRL_UPDATE_INFO. This was intended to check for tag
updates, but now we use a different approach.
Windows applications that use LoadLibrary are vulnerable to DLL
preloading attacks if a malicious DLL with the same name as a system DLL
is placed in the current directory. mpv had some code to avoid this in
ao_wasapi.c. This commit just moves it to main.c, since there's no
reason it can't be used process-wide.
This change can affect how plugins are loaded in AviSynth, but it
shouldn't be a problem since MPC-HC also does this and it's a very
popular AviSynth client.
Windows users expect this when a program crashes. Without it, the
program just disappears. Also change the SetErrorMode call to use macros
instead of a hardcoded constant.
If there's more than one edition, print the list of editions, including
the edition name, whether the edition is selected, whether the edition
is default, and the command line option to select the edition. (Similar
to stream list.)
Move reading the tags to a separate function process_tags(), which is
called when all other state is parsed. Otherwise, that tags will be lost
if chapters are read after the tags.
Do two things:
1. add locking to struct osd_state
2. make struct osd_state opaque
While 1. is somewhat simple, 2. is quite horrible. Lots of code accesses
lots of osd_state (and osd_object) members. To make sure everything is
accessed synchronously, I prefer making osd_state opaque, even if it
means adding pretty dumb accessors.
All of this is meant to allow running VO in their own threads.
Eventually, VOs will request OSD on their own, which means osd_state
will be accessed from foreign threads.
The plan is to make the whole OSD thread-safe, and we start with this.
We just put locks on all entry points (fortunately, dec_sub.c and all
sd_*.c decoders are very closed off, and only the entry points in
dec_sub.h let you access it). I think this is pretty ugly, but at least
it's very simple.
There's a special case with sub_get_bitmaps(): this function returns
pointers to decoder data (specifically, libass images). There's no way
to synchronize this internally, so expose sub_lock/sub_unlock functions.
To make things simpler, and especially because the lock is sort-of
exposed to the outside world, make the locks recursive. Although the
only case where this is actually needed (although trivial) is
sub_set_extradata().
One corner case are ASS subtitles: for some reason, we keep a single
ASS_Renderer instance for subtitles around (probably to avoid rescanning
fonts with ordered chapters), and this ASS_Renderer instance is not
synchronized. Also, demux_libass.c loads ASS_Track objects, which are
directly passed to sd_ass.c. These things are not synchronized (and
would be hard to synchronize), and basically we're out of luck. But I
think for now, accesses happen reasonably serialized, so there is no
actual problem yet, even if we start to access OSD from other threads.
These were needed before the last commit, but now they don't do anything
anymore. (They were used to decide whether to replace or stack the
previous OSD message when a new one was displayed.)
If certain OSD messages were displayed at the same time, the hidden
messages were put on the stack, and displayed again once the higher
priority messages disappeared. The idea was probably that lower priority
messages could not hide higher priority ones, and also that the lower
messages did not get lost.
But in practice, this gives confusing results with OSD messages randomly
reappearing for a brief time. Remove it.
Showing subtitles on terminal used the OSD message stack (which uses a
stack to "pile up" messages that were displayed at the same time). This
had a bunch of weird and annoying consequences. This accessed a certain
osd_state field, which is a minor annoyance since I want to make that
struct opaque. Implement this differently.
The values set by this new option can be queried by Lua scripts using
the mp.getopt() function. The function takes a string parameter, and
returns the value of the first key that matches. If no key matches, nil
is returned.
When the Lua code was written, the core didn't have names for log levels
yet (just numbers). The only user visible change is that "verbose"
becomes "v", since this level had different names.
Adds the following Lua function to enable message events:
mp.enable_messages(size, level)
size is the maximum number of messages the ringbuffer consists of. level
is the minimum log level for a message to be added to the ringbuffer,
and uses the same values as the mp.log() function. (Actually not yet,
but this will be fixed in the following commit.)
The messages will be delivered via the mp_event() in the user script,
using "message" as event name. The event argument is a table with the
following fields:
level: log level of the message (string as in mp.log())
prefix: string identifying the module of origin
text: contents of the message
As of currently, the message text will contain newline characters. A
message can consist of several lines. It is also possible that a
message doesn't end with a newline, and a caller can use multiple
messages to "build" a line. Most messages will contain exactly 1 line
ending with a single newline character, though.
If the message buffer overflows (messages are not read quickly enough),
new messages are lost until the queued up messages are read. At the
point of the overflow, a special overflow message is inserted. It will
have prefix set to "overflow", and the message text is set to "".
Care should be taken not to print any messages from the message event
handler. This would lead to an infinite loop (the event handler would be
called again after returning, because a new message is available). This
includes mp.log() and all mp.msg.* functions. Keep in mind that the Lua
print() function is mapped to mp.msg.info().
Before that, it just returned -1.
The print case is inconsistent with that, but I'll leave it for now,
because it's consistent with status line / show_progress behavior.
Starting a network stream could stall by executing uncacheable stream
control requests (STREAM_CTRL_GET_LANG and STREAM_CTRL_GET_DVD_INFO).
Being uncacheable means the player has to wait until the cache is done
reading the current block of data. These requests can't be cached
because they're too complicated, so the only way to avoid them is
special casing the DVD and Bluray streams (which are the only things
which need these requests), and not doing them in other cases.
(This is kind of inelegant, but so is the rest of the DVD/BD code.)
The terminal OSD code includes the handling of the terminal status line,
showing player OSD messages on the terminal, and showing subtitles on
terminal (the latter two only if there is no video window, or if
terminal OSD is forced).
This didn't handle some corner cases correctly. For example, showing an
OSD message on the terminal always cleared the previous line, even if
the line was an important message (or even just the command prompt, if
most other messages were silenced).
Attempt to handle this correctly by keeping track of how many lines the
terminal OSD currently consists of. Since there could be race conditions
with other messages being printed, implement this in msg.c. Now msg.c
expects that MSGL_STATUS messages rewrite the status line, so the caller
is forced to use a single mp_msg() call to set the status line.
Instead of littering print_status() all over the place, update the
status only once per playloop iteration in update_osd_msg(). In audio-
only mode, the status line might now be a little bit off, but it's
perhaps ok.
Print the status line only if it has changed, or if another message was
printed. This might help with extremely slow terminals, although in
audio+video mode, it'll still be updated very often (A-V sync display
changes on every frame).
Instead of hardcoding the terminal sequences, use
terminfo/termcap to get the sequences. Remove the --term-osd-esc option,
which allowed to override the hardcoded escapes - it's useless now.
The fallback for terminals with no escape sequences for moving the
cursor and clearing a line is removed. This somewhat breaks status line
display on these terminals, including the MS Windows console: instead of
querying the terminal size and clearing the line manually by padding the
output with spaces, the line is simply not cleared. I don't expect this
to be a problem on UNIX, and on MS Windows we could emulate escape
sequences. Note that terminal OSD (other than the status line) was
broken anyway on these terminals.
In osd.c, the function get_term_width() is not used anymore, so remove
it. To remind us that the MS Windows console apparently adds a line
break when writint the last column, adjust screen_width in terminal-
win.c accordingly.
Seeking usually show the status on OSD. In terminal OSD mode, no status
is shown, because there is already a separate status line.
Unfortunately, the mechanism for showing the status was still active,
which forced showing no message while the code for showing seek status
was active.
Insane .ass subtitle scripts can cause severe slowdown (depending on the
speed of the machine, or the insanity of the script), so mention how to
test without subtitles. This is mainly to make the user aware that
subtitle rendering can be a problem. For longwinded explanation, there
isn't enough space.
Use the video chain for this instead. This is for facilitating coming
changes, which will clean up the vo->aspdat stuff, and this code would
be in the way.
This fixes two things:
1. Dropping files on the VO window will auto-load subtitles (since most
drag & drop code prefixes the filenames with 'file://', and the
subtitle auto-load code considers 'file://' non-local)
2. Fix behavior of the %x screenshot filename template (similar problem)
One could force all that code to special-case 'file://' URLs, but just
replacing the filename on playback start is simpler.
This was inconsistent: the actual statusline used [statusline] as
message prefix, while other parts of the terminal OSD used [cplayer]
(and MSGL_STATUS). This commit makes it consistent.
Note that we can't use mp_msg, because it's not async-signal safe (we
might be running other threads while forking, so only functions
specified to be async-signal safe can be called, and this doesn't
include stdio; mp_msg acquires a mutex too).
Also, always print a \n before running the program to flush the status
line. The effect is that a program running successfully as well as the
error message will effectively start on a new line.
Quvi subtitles are considered external subtitles (simply because they're
separate from the audio/video stream), but for the sake of subtitle
auto-selection, they should not be considered external.
Change this so that quvi subtitles are treated like muxed subtitles
(with default flag never set). This means subtitles won't be selected by
default, unless explicitly requested with --sid or --slang.
demux_subreader.c contains the old MPlayer subtitle parser, and I have
absolutely no confidence in this (very crappy) code. There might be
one or two security risks associated with running that code on
arbitrary input.
This is necessary to start mpv without forcing a console window,
but also breaks console usability. A workaround is to call mpv
from a wrapper process that uses the console subsystem and helps
redirecting the standard streams and WriteConsole output to where
they belong.
The Haali Matroska splitter is basically the reference implementation
for this crap, and it knows only:
application/vnd.ms-opentype
application/x-font-ttf
application/x-truetype-font
Two of them were missing in our code. One of them, "application/x-font",
is probably plain incorrect, but I can't really tell.
Also see: http://www.cccp-project.net/beta/test_files/fontsample.mkv
This is probably useful.
Note that this includes a small, stupid hack to prevent loading of the
config file if vf_lavfi is not available. The profile by default uses
vf_lavfi, and the config parser will output errors if vf_lavfi is not
available.
As another caveat, we install the example profile even if encoding is
disabled (though we don't load it, since this would print errors).
This applies the usual logic of resetting stream selections to default
when switching to a file with a different track layout. (This is to
prevent selecting random streams.)
Also, make sure that a track can't be selected twice. While this might
work in some situations, it certainly won't work with subtitles demuxed
from a stream.
Fixes#425.
This is relatively hacky, but it's Christmas, so it's ok. This does two
things: 1. allow selecting two subtitle tracks, and 2. include a hack
that renders the second subtitle always as toptitle. See manpage
additions how to use this.
Normally, there can be only one demuxer stream active for each demuxer
of an external file, but this assumption will be broken for multiple
subtitles support.
For some reason, this checked whether there are external tracks at all
before doing any seeks. Possibly this was to avoid multiple
get_main_demux_pts() calls, but calling this multiple times shouldn't be
too bad.
Normally we shouldn't load these files. But for some reason it was added
in commit b784346e some years ago, and disabling this hack would
probably be an inconvenience. So just print a warning.
The only thing that used mp_load_per_file_config() was inside
configfiles.c too, so remove the declaration from core.h and move the
function before its use.
Code for loading "[vo.vdpau]" profiles and similar. The messages printed
on loading change, but other than that, everything should behave about
the same.
Including the "." in the returned extension was too inconvenient. I
think originally, the semantics were supposed to work like in Python,
but screw this.
Also, return NULL instead of "" on failure (which is what its only user
actually seems to expect).
I find this annoying. It's the reason common/version.c exists at all.
options.c did this for the user agent, which contains the version
number. Because not including version.h means you can't build the user
agent and use it in mp_default_opts anymore, do something rather awkward
in main.c to initialize the default user agent.
There's a single mp_msg() in path.c, but all path lookup functions seem
to depend on it, so we get a rat-tail of stuff we have to change. This
is probably a good thing though, because we can have the path lookup
functions also access options, so we could allow overriding the default
config path, or ignore the MPV_HOME environment variable, and such
things.
Also take the chance to consistently add talloc_ctx parameters to the
path lookup functions.
Also, this change causes a big mess on configfiles.c. It's the same
issue: everything suddenly needs a (different) context argument. Make it
less wild by providing a mp_load_auto_profiles() function, which
isolates most of it to configfiles.c.
The TV code pretends to be part of stream/, but it's actually demuxer
code too. The audio_in code is shared between the TV code and
stream_radio.c, so stream_radio.c needs a small hack until stream.c is
converted.
This is pretty nasty, because FFmpeg/Libav is yet another library with a
global message callback. We do something with mutexes trying to get it
done, but of course we can't actually solve this problem. If more than
one library in a process use FFmpeg/Libav, only one of them will get log
messages.
Always pass around mp_log contexts in the option parser code. This of
course affects all users of this API as well.
In stream.c, pass a mp_null_log, because we can't do it properly yet.
This will be fixed later.
Until now, there were two functions to add input sources (stuff like
stdin input, slave mode, lirc, joystick). Unify them to a single
function (mp_input_add_fd()), and make sure the associated callbacks
always have a context parameter.
Change the lirc and joystick code such that they take store their state
in a context struct (probably worthless), and use the new mp_msg
replacements (the point of this refactoring).
Additionally, get rid of the ugly USE_FD0_CMD_SELECT etc. ifdeffery in
the terminal handling code.
Basically, reimplement --msglevel. Instead of making the new msg code
use the legacy code, make the legacy code use the reimplemented
functionality.
The handling of the deprecated --identify switch changes. It temporarily
stops working; this will be fixed in later commits.
The actual sub-options syntax (like --msglevel-vo=...) goes away, but I
bet nobody knew about this or used this anyway.
Instead of making msg.c an ifdef hell for unix vs. windows code, move
the code to separate functions defined in terminal-unix.c/terminal-
win.c.
Drop the code that selects random colors for --msgmodule prefixes.
So you can pass a command as list of strings (each item is an argument),
instead of having to worry about escaping and such.
These functions also take an argument for the default command flags. In
particular, this allows setting saner defaults for commands sent by
program code.
Expose this to Lua as mp.send_commandv command (suggestions for a better
name welcome). The Lua version doesn't allow setting the default command
flags, but it can still use command prefixes. The default flags are
different from input.conf, and disable OSD and property expansion.
Remove these because I'm too lazy to convert them to proper
STREAM_CTRLs. Considering that probably nobody uses radio://, caring
about this is a complete waste of time. I will add these commands back
if someone asks for them, but I don't expect this to happen.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
