JSON doesn't support these for some god-awful reason. (JSON would have
been so much better if it weren't based on JavaScript, the plague of
this world.)
We don't really care whether these specific values "round trip", so we
might as well write them in a standard-compliant way.
Untested. I was too lazy to even run this, but it probably works.
See #6691.
Somewhat useful for debugging. Unfortunately libass (or something else)
strips leading whitespace, making it look slightly more ugly than
necessary. Still an improvement.
This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.
There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.
A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).
common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.
codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.
From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).
misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.
screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.
We escape only characters below 32, plus " and \. UTF-8 should be apssed
through verbatim. Since char can be signed (and usually is), the check
broke and happened to escape UTF-8 encoded bytes too. This broke UTF-8
completely.
Note that we don't check for broken or invalid UTF-8, such as described
both in the client API and IPC docs.
Fixes#1874.
It assumed that any >\"< sequence was an escape for >"<, but that is not
the case with JSON such as >{"ducks":"\\"}<. In this case, the second
>\< is obviously not starting an escape.
The JSON parser was introduced for the IPC protocol, but I guess it's
useful here too.
The motivation for this commit is the same as with 8e4fa5fc (again).
