Allow the --window-maximized and --window-minimized flags to actually
work when the player is started. since macOS doesn't like using both at
the same time the minimized state takes precedence over the maximized
state.
The option code is very old and was added to MPlayer in the early 2000s,
when C99 was still new. MPlayer did not use the "bool" type anywhere,l
and the logical option equivalent to bool, the "flag" option type, used
int, with the convention that only the values 0 and 1 are allowed.
mpv may have hammered many, many additional tentacles to the option
code, but some of the basics never changed, and m_option_type_flag still
uses int. This seems a bit weird, since mpv uses bool for booleans. So
finally introduce an m_option_type_bool. To avoid duplicating too much
code, change the flag code to bool, and "reimplement" m_option_type_flag
on top of m_option_type_bool.
As a "demonstration", change the --fullscreen option to this new type.
Ideally, all options would be changed too bool, and m_option_type_flag
would be removed. But that is a lot of monotonous thankless work, so I'm
not doing it, and making it a painful years long transition.
At the same time, I'm introducing a new concept for option declarations.
Instead of OPT_BOOL(), which define the full m_option struct contents,
there's OPTF_BOOL(), which only takes the option field name itself. The
name is provided via a normal struct field initializer. Other fields
(such as flags) can be provided via designated initializers.
The advantage of this is that we don't need tons of nested vararg
macros. We also don't need to deal with 0-sized varargs being a pain
(and in fact they are not a thing in standard C99 and probably C11).
There is no need to provide a mandatory flags argument either, which is
the reason why so many OPT_ macros are used with a "0" argument. (The
flag argument seems to confuse other developers; they either don't
immediately recognize what it is, and sometimes it's supposed to be the
option's default value.)
Not having to mess with the flag argument in such option macros is also
a reason for the removal of M_OPT_RANGE etc., for the better or worse.
The only place that special-cased the _flag option type was in
command.c; change it to use something effectively very similar that
automatically includes the new _bool option type. Everything else should
be transparent to the change. The fullscreen option change should be
transparent too, as C99 bool is basically an integer type that is
clamped to 0/1 (except in Swift, Swift sucks).
Commits ba70b150fb and 8a4f812b76 should have mentioned this. These
things should be quite useful for client API users, and thus should be
mentioned in a prominent place.
Although I'm not sure if anyone will understand from this gibberish what
this really means.
Commit 8d965a1bfb changed option/property min/max handling. As a
consequence, ranges that contain only 1 or 0 elements are not possible
anymore. Normally that's fine, because it makes no sense to have an
option that has only one or none allowed value (statically).
But edition switching used some sort of mechanism where the property can
return a different, dynamically decided range at runtime. That meant
that if there were <2 editions, edition switching with the "cycle"
command would always pick the same value. But with the recent commit,
this changed to having "no range set" and would cycle through all
integer values.
Work this around with a simple change. Now, edition switching on a file
without editions shows "edition: auto" instead of "edition: 0", which
may appear odd. But the former is the --edition default value, and
previous mpv versions rendered the edition property like this when not
using switching.
(Who the fuck uses editions?)
Before this commit, option declarations used M_OPT_MIN/M_OPT_MAX (and
some other identifiers based on these) to signal whether an option had
min/max values. Remove these flags, and make it use a range implicitly
on the condition if min<max is true.
This requires care in all cases when only M_OPT_MIN or M_OPT_MAX were
set (instead of both). Generally, the commit replaces all these
instances with using DBL_MAX/DBL_MIN for the "unset" part of the range.
This also happens to fix some cases where you could pass over-large
values to integer options, which were silently truncated, but now cause
an error.
This commit has some higher potential for regressions.
Try to remove m_config implementation details from m_config_frontend.
Not sure if I like it. Seems to be ~100 lines of awkward code more, and
not much is gained from it. Also it took way too long to do it, and
there might be bugs.
Move the "old" mostly command line parsing and option management related
code to m_config_frontend.c/h. Move the the code that enables other part
of the player to access options to m_config_core.c/h. "frontend" is out
of lack of creativity for a better name.
Unfortunately, the separation isn't quite clean yet. m_config_frontend.c
still references some m_config_core.c implementation details, and
m_config_new() is even left in m_config_core.c for now. There some odd
functions that should be removed as well (marked as "Bad functions").
Fixing these things requires more changes and will be done separately.
struct m_config is left with the current name to reduce diff noise.
Also, since there are a _lot_ source files that include m_config.h, add
a replacement m_config.h that "redirects" to m_config_core.h.
This was mostly unused, and has certain problems. Just get rid of it.
It was still used in CDDA (--cdda-span) and a debug option for OpenGL
(--opengl-check-pattern). Replace both of these with 2 options, where
each sets the start/end values of the former span. Both were
undocumented somehow (normally we require all options to be documented),
so I'm not caring about compatibility, and not bothering to add it to
the API changelog.
The emulation is pretty bad, and C11 compilers are everywhere now. It's
time to retire the emulation, which was always meant as temporary hack
for transition.
In theory, a user can still use --disable-stdatomic to enable the
emulation code, but that's sort of hidden. Actual support will be
removed after the next release or so.
We have this cap now thanks to e2976e662, but we don't actually make
sure our FBOs are storable before we blindly attempt using them with
compute shaders.
There's no more need to unconditionally set `storage_dst = true` as long
as we make sure to include an extra condition on the `fbo_format`
selection to prevent users from accidentally enabling
compute-shader-only features with non-storable FBOs, alongside some
other miscellaneous adjustments to eliminate instances of "assumed
storability" from vo_gpu.
This simply makes the "is the destination FBO format bad?" check a tiny
bit less awful, by making sure we prefer storable FBO formats over
non-storable FBO formats. I'd love to make this also conditional on
whether or not we actually *need* a storable FBO format, but that logic
is decided later, in `pass_draw_to_screen`, and I don't want to
replicate the logic.
Fixes#7017.
Previously if the --fs-screen option was set, it would only use the
screen if mpv was launched with --fs and only on startup. During
runtime, the toggle would ignore it. Rework the logic here so that mpv's
fullscreen always uses --fs-screen if it is set. Additionally, cleanup
some unneeded cruft in vo_wayland_reconfig and make find_output more
useful.
Really minor detail that doesn't really matter. If frame stepping pauses
playback on end (why does this special case even exist), it should
probably be done after on_unload, because all works is supposed to be
finished at that point.
This was not reset in the num_properties==0 case. This didn't really
matter, but for debugging it's slightly nicer to see new_property_events
reset once the client thread is done with it.
Change to it 1000 hours, which is "infinite" enough. (Hesitant to use
INFINITY, as that is not in the option's range. The option parser
rejects it because it causes only problems in API users and so on.)
Until now the 'update' method used mp.command_native with a hardcoded
list of key names.
Change it to use whatever keys the user set to this object, so that
we can remain oblivious to new keys which 'osd-overlay' may support.
This is how the lua code did it from the begining. We didn't, and now
we pay the price.
Note: could be implemented either as we have now (clone `this`
excluding the methods) or by moving the methods up the prototype chain
(i.e. class methods) so they don't get enumerated and use `this` as
the command object itself.
However, in the latter approach we'll have to save the values which we
change (name, res_x, res_y) and restore them after the command, so it's
simpler to just clone `this`.
When the current file changes (or rather, when starting/finishing
playback of a playlist entry), clients tend to have the problem that
it's hard to tell whether a property change notification (via
mpv_observe_property() and mechanisms layered on top of it) is from the
previous or new playlist entry. The previous commit probably helps, but
all the asynchronity is still a bit unhelpful.
Try to make this better by adding new hooks, that are run before/after
playback init/deinit. This is similar to the existing hooks, except
they're outside of "initialized" playback, which excludes that you might
accidentally get an overlap between the current and the previous/next
playlist entry.
That still doesn't seem quite enough, since normally, property change
notifications come after the hook event. So basically a client would
have to explicitly "drain" the event queue within the hook, and make the
hook continue only after that is done. Knowing when property
notifications are done is another asynchronous nightmare (how exactly it
works keeps changing within client.c, and an API user probably can't
tell anymore when all pending properties are truly done). So introduce
another guarantee: properties that were changed before the hook happens
will be returned before the hook event is returned. That means the
client will have received all pending property notifications from the
previous playlist entry (or whatever) before the hook is entered.
As another minor complication, we shouldn't just keep the hook pending
until _all_ property notifications are done, since the client's hook
could produce new ones. (Or just consider things like the demuxer thread
hammering the client with cache update events, while the "on_preloaded"
hook is run.) So there is some extra untested, fragile logic in client.c
to handle this (the waiting_for_hook flag).
This probably works, but was barely tested. Not sure if this helps
anyone, but I think it's fine for my own purposes. (I really hated this
aspect of the API whenever I used it myself.)
This could happen if a property was flagged as changed, then updated,
then flagged again, but gen_property_change_event() was called before
the value was updated a second time. Then the function simply returned
the old value, and would later trigger a new change event again.
This was considered acceptable before, since property notifications are
asynchronous anyway (so they may always be "outdated", it just mattered
whether the most recent value was eventually delivered).
But consider ordering with events. It seems desirable that specific
important events (e.g. MPV_EVENT_START_FILE) should not be followed by
property updates that happened before it, because that would make
application logic really a mess, and property notification near-useless
in certain cases.
Avoid this by never returning a value if it was marked changed, but not
updated yet.
Unfortunately, this could lead to clients never receiving a value (or
receiving it with a high random delay), if they're too slow to read it
(or the property simply updates too often). Note that this is done for
_all_ property notifications, not just returned events. Hopefully not a
problem in practice. If it turns out to be one, this mechanism could be
restricted to actually returned events, for which this really matters.
No replacement. Qt or C++ code has no business in this repository, and
new code (even if it uses Qt) should not use it. Get rid of it.
We consider the libmpv API itself as stable. Symbols can be deprecated,
but not be removed. However, qthelper.hpp was never considered part of
the libmpv API. There no ABI implications either, since it's a header-
only implementation that uses C API symbols only. It's just a header
provided for convenience for Qt/C++ programs (i.e. extremely limited
usefulness).
This is more or less a minimal hack to make _some_ text measurement
functionality available to scripts. Since libass does not support such a
thing, this simply uses the bounding box of the rendered text.
This is far from ideal. Problems include:
- using a bitmap bounding box
- additional memory waste and/or flushing caches
- dependency on window size
- odd small deviations with different window sizes (run osd-test.lua and
resize the window after each timer update; the bounding boxes aren't
adjusted in an overly useful way)
- inability to query the size _after_ actual rendering
But I guess it's a start. Since I'm aware that it's crap, add a threat
to the manpage that this may be changed/removed again. For now, I'm
interested whether anyone will have use for it in its current form, as
it's an often requested feature.
When the demuxer cache read until the end of the stream, and was
finished and completely inactive, the cache properties were not updated
anymore via MP_EVENT_CACHE_UPDATE.
Unfortunately, many cache properties depend on the current playback
position, such as cache-duration or fw-bytes. This is especially visible
on the OSC. If everything was cached, seeking around didn't update the
displayed forward cache duration.
That means checking demuxer_reader_state.idle is not enough. You also
need to check whether the current playback position changed.
Fix this by explicitly using the current playback position, and update
the properties if it changed "enough". "Enough" is 1 second of media
time in this example, which may or may not be appropriate.
In general, this could probably be done better. There are many other
triggers that change the cache state and that are not covered. For now
I'm content with getting rid of the obvious problems.
I think the OSC problem in particular was caused by changing it from
polling to using property change notifications.
Apparently this bit-rotted a lot, and now causes more problems that it
helps. In particular picking up broadcom EGL instead of Mesa EGL will
break things. With RPI getting proper Mesa/DRM/V4L support, this problem
should solve itself as well.
Some filters may block the playloop for a longer time. For example, if a
decoder fails to decode anything and somehow just discards packets, the
filter graph would run (in a blocking manner) until all packets are
read, which could take a longer time if the demuxer thread is fast
enough.
Make it exit every 100ms. That should at least give the user a chance to
stop playback.
Filtering could run on a different thread, but I don't see much value in
doing that in the general case. It would just waste a thread. Although
being able to use mp_filter_graph_interrupt() would be slightly nicer
than such a timeout mechanism. Decoding in particular can actually use a
separate thread (--vd-queue-enable), but again, this is not enabled by
default, because it just wastes a thread.
Like the previous f_decoder_wrapper commit, this is probably a sin.
The mp_filter_run() invocation blocks as long as the demuxer provides
packets and the queue can be filled. That means it may block quite a
long time of the decoder queue size is large (since we use libavcodec in
a blocking manner; it regrettably does not have an async. API).
This made the main thread freeze in certain situations, because it has
to wait on the decoder thread.
Other than I suspected (I wrote that code, but that doesn't mean I know
how the hell it works), this did not freeze during seeking: seek resets
flushed the queue, which also prevented the decoder thread from adding
more frames to it, thus stopping decoding and responding to the main
thread in time. But it does fix the issue that exiting the player waited
for the decoder to finish filling the queue when stopping playback.
(This happened because it called mp_decoder_wrapper_set_play_dir()
before any resets. Related to the somewhat messy way play_dir is
generally set. But it affects all "synchronous" decoder wrapper API
calls.)
This uses pretty weird mechanisms in filter.h and dispatch.h. The
resulting durr hurr interactions are probably hard to follow, and this
whole thing is a sin. On the other hand, this is a _very_ user visible
issue, and I'm happy that it can be fixed in such an unintrusive way.
p->log has a prefix set that gives some context and distinguishes audio
and video decoders. The "public" wrapper filter didn't use it, which is
a regression since commit a3823ce0e0.
Filtering is integrated into an event loop, which is something the
filter API user provides. To make interacting with the event loop
easier, and in particular to avoid filtering to block event handling,
add functions the event loop code can suspend filtering.
While we cannot actually suspend a single filter, it's pretty easy to
suspend the filter graph run loop itself, which is responsible for
selecting which filter to run next.
This commit shouldn't change behavior at all, but the functions will be
used in later commits.
This was forgotten.
Hardware decoding typically breaks immediately, because many hw decoding
APIs require allocating all surfaces in advance (and/or libavcodec was
not made flexible enough to add new surfaces later). If the queue is
large enough, it will run out of surfaces, fail decoding, and fall back
to software decoding. We consider this the user's fault.
--hwdec-extra-frames can be used to avoid this, if you have enough GPU
memory, and the needed number of frames is lower than the arbitrary
mpv-set maximum limit of that option.
I don't know what should happen when the same value is written to the
property. It seems that it would be more natural if it were ignored
(since that's also what is done with options now), but you could argue
the other way around as well. In any case, changing it silently could
leads to user scripts etc. breaking, so don't change it now.
Instead, add blabla to the manpage to put the responsibility on the
user, so when we suddenly change it one day, we can blame any breakages
on someone else.
See: #7501
This required libsmbclient, which is a heavy dependency, and as a
library, has all kinds of problems. For one, the API requires completely
unacceptable global state (in particular, leaks auth state), and is not
thread-safe (meaning concurrent reads to multiple files block each
other).
There are better replacements: you can use the Linux kernel's builtin
CIFS support, fusesmb, or contribute supoport for libdsm.
This commit fixes a bug where handle for a framebuffer gets double
freed.
It seems to happen that the same prime fd gets two framebuffers.
As the prime fd is the same the resulting prime handle is also the
same.
This means one handle but 2 framebuffers and can lead to the following
chain:
1. The first framebuffer gets deleted the handle gets also freed via
the ioctl.
2. In startup phase not all 4 dumb buffers for overlay drawing
are set up. It can happen that the last dumb buffer gets the
handle we freed above.
3. The second framebuffer gets freed and the handle will be
freed again resulting that the 4's dumb buffer handle is not
backed by a buffer.
4. Drm prime continues to assign handles to its prime fds an
will lead to have this handle which was just freed to
reassign again but to an prime buffer.
5.Now the overlay should be drawn into dumb buffer 4 which
still has the same handle but is backed by the wrong buffer.
This leads to two different behaviors:
- MPV crashes as the drm prime buffers size als calculated
by the decoder output format. The overlay output format
differs and it takes more space. SO the size check
in kernel fails.
- MPV is continuing play. This happens when the decoders
allocates a bigger buffer than needed for the overlay.
For example overlay is Full HD and decoder output is 4k.
This leads to the behavior das the overlay wil be drawn
into the wrong buffer as its a drm prime buffer and results
in a flicker every fourth step.
