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.
Having the DTS directly can be useful for restoring PTS values.
The avi file format doesn't actually store PTS values, just DTS. An
older hack explicitly exported the DTS as PTS (ignoring the [I assume]
genpts generated non-sense PTS), which is not necessary anymore due to
this change.
Pointless, using stream->start_pos/end_pos instead.
demux_mf was the only place where this was used specially, but we can
rely on timestamps instead for this case.
To support edition references in matroska chapters, editions need to be
remembered for each chapter and source. To facilitate easier management
of these now-paired uids, a single structure is used.
There is uninitialized memory access if the actual size isn't passed
along. In the worst case, this can cause a source to be loaded against
the uninitialized memory, causing a false count of found versus required
sources, preventing the "Failed to find ordered chapter part" message.
Retrieve per-chapter metadata, but don't do much with it. We just make
the metadata of the _current_ chapter available as chapter-metadata
property. Returning the full chapter list with metadata would be no
problem, except that the property interface isn't really good with
structured data, so it's not available for now.
Not sure if it's worth it, but it was requested via github issue #201.
Modeled after the old playlist_parser.c, but actually new code, and it
works a bit differently.
Demuxers (and sometimes streams) are the component that should be used
to open files and to determine the file format. This was already done
for subtitles, but playlists still use a separate code path.
Remove the (now unused) code for determining correct-pts mode based on
the demuxer in use. Change its description in the manpage to reflect
what this option does now.
All demuxers make a reasonable effort to set packet timestamps, and thus
support correct-pts mode. This commit also implicitly switches
demux_rawvideo to correct-pts mode.
We still allow demuxers to disable correct-pts mode in theory.
Get rid of the strange and messy reliance on DEMUXER_TYPE_ constants.
Instead of having two open functions for the demuxer callbacks (which
somehow are both optional, but you can also decide to implement both...),
just have one function. This function takes a parameter that tells the
demuxer how strictly it should check for the file headers. This is a
nice simplification and allows more flexibility.
Remove the file extension code. This literally did nothing (anymore).
Change demux_lavf so that we check our other builtin demuxers first
before libavformat tries to guess by file extension.
This removes the dependency on DEMUXER_TYPE_* and the file_format
parameter from the stream open functions.
Remove some of the playlist handling code. It looks like this was
needed only for loading linked mov files with demux_mov (which was
removed long ago).
Delete a minor bit of dead network-related code from stream.c as well.
Move codec_tags.h include to demux_mkv.c, because this is the only file
which still uses it.
Move new_sh_stream() to demux.h, because this is more proper.
The code touched by this commit makes sure that DVD subtitle tracks
known by libdvdread but not known by demux_lavf can be selected and
displayed properly. These subtitle tracks have the first packet
some time late in the packet stream, so that libavformat won't
immediately recognize them, and will add the track as soon as the
first packet is seen during normal demuxing.
demux_mpg used to handle this elegantly: you just set the MPEG ID of
the stream you wanted. demux_lavf couldn't do this, so it was emulated
with a DEMUXER_CTRL. This commit changes it so that new streams are
selected by default (if autoselect is enabled), and the playloop
simply can take appropriate action before the lower layer throws away
the first packet.
This also changes the demux_lavf behavior that subtitle packets are
always demuxed, even if not needed. (They were immediately thrown away,
so there was no advantage to this.)
Further, this adds the ability to demux.c to deal with demuxing more
than one stream of a kind at once. (Though currently it's not useful.)
Generally remove all accesses to demux_stream from all the code, except
inside of demux.c. Make it completely private to demux.c.
This simplifies the code because it removes an extra concept. In demux.c
it is reduced to a simple packet queue. There were other uses of
demux_stream, but they were removed or are removed with this commit.
Remove the extra "ds" argument to demux fill_buffer callback. It was
used by demux_avi and the TV pseudo-demuxer only.
Remove usage of d_video->last_pts from the no-correct-pts code. This
field contains the last PTS retrieved after a packet that is not NOPTS.
We can easily get this value manually because we read the packets
ourselves. Reuse sh_video->last_pts to store the packet PTS values. It
was used only by the correct-pts code before, and like d_video->last_pts,
it is reset on seek. The behavior should be exactly the same.
Currently, all demuxer fill_buffer functions have a demux_stream
parameter. We want to remove that, but the TV code still depends on
it. Add a hack to remove that dependency.
The problem with the TV code is that reading video and audio frames
blocks, so in order to avoid a deadlock, you should read either of
them only if the decoder actually requests new data.
Partial packet reads were needed because the video/audio parsers were
working on top of them. So it could happen that a parser read a part of
a packet, and returned that to the decoder. With libavformat/libavcodec,
packets are already parsed, and everything is much simpler.
Most of the simplifications in ad_spdif could have been done earlier.
Remove some other stuff as well, like the questionable slave mode start
time reporting (could be replaced by proper code, but we don't bother).
Remove the unused skip_audio_frame() functionality as well (it was used
by old demuxers). Some functions become private to demux.c, like
demux_fill_buffer(). Introduce new packet read functions, which have
simpler semantics. Packets returned from them are owned by the caller,
and all packets in the demux.c packet queue are considered unread.
Remove special code that dropped subtitle packets with size 0. This
used to be needed because it caused special cases in the old code.
The demux_open as well as demux_open_withparams calls don't use the
stream selection parameters anymore, so remove them everywhere.
Completes the previous commit.
These separate arrays were used by the old demuxers and are not needed
anymore. We can simplify track switching as well.
One interesting thing is that stream/tv.c (which is a demuxer) won't
respect --no-audio anymore. It will probably work as expected, but it
will still open an audio device etc. - this is because track selection
is now always done with the runtime track switching mechanism. Maybe
the TV code could be updated to do proper runtime switching, but I
can't test this stuff.
The audio parser was needed only by the "old" demuxers, and
demux_rawaudio. All other demuxers output already parsed packets.
demux_rawaudio is usually for raw audio, so using a parser with it
doesn't usually make sense. But you can also force it to read
compressed formats with fixed packet sizes, in which case the parser
would have been used. This use case is probably broken now, but you
will be able to do the same thing with libavformat demuxers.
Delete demux_avi, demux_asf, demux_mpg, demux_ts. libavformat does
better than them (except in rare corner cases), and the demuxers have
a bad influence on the rest of the code. Often they don't output
proper packets, and require additional audio and video parsing. Most
work only in --no-correct-pts mode.
Remove them to facilitate further cleanups.
STREAM_CTRL_GET_METADATA will be used to poll for streamcast metadata.
Also add DEMUXER_CTRL_UPDATE_INFO, which could in theory be used by
demux_lavf.c. (Unfortunately, libavformat is too crappy to read metadata
mid-stream for mp3 or ogg, so we don't implement it.)
demux_libass.c allows us to make subtitle format detection part of the
normal file loading process. libass has no probe function, but trying to
load the start of a file (the first 4 KB) is good enough. Hope that
libass can even handle random binary input gracefully without printing
stupid log messages, and that the libass parser doesn't accept too many
non-ASS files as input.
This doesn't handle the -subcp option correctly yet. This will be fixed
later.
subreader.c (before this commit renamed to demux_subreader.c) was
special cased to the -sub option. The plan is using the normal demuxer
codepath for all subtitle formats (so we can prefer libavformat demuxers
for most formats).
There are some subtle changes. The probe size is restricted to 32 KB
(instead of unlimitted + giving up after 100 lines of input). For
formats like MicroDVD, the video FPS isn't used anymore, because it's
not available on the subtitle demuxer level. Instead, hardcode it to
23.976 FPS (libavformat seems to do the same). The user can probably
still use -sub-fps to fix the timing. Checking the file extension for
".utf"/".utf8"/".utf-8" is simply removed (seems worthless, was in the
way, and I've never seen this anywhere).
If a subtitle is external, read it completely and add all subtitle
events in advance when the subtitle track is selected. This is done
for text subtitles only. (Note that subreader.c and subtitles loaded
with libass are different and don't have anything to do with this
commit.)
Before this, subtitle packets were returned as data ptr/len pairs, and
mplayer.c got the rest (pts and duration) directly from the demuxer
data structures. Then mplayer.c reassembled the packet data structure
again.
Pass packets directly instead. The mplayer.c side stays a bit awkward,
because the (now by default unused) DVD path keeps getting in the way.
In demux.c there's lots of weird stuff (3 functions that read packets,
really?), but we want to keep the code equivalent for now to avoid
hitting weird issues and corner cases.
Subtitle files are opened in mplayer.c, not using the demuxer
infrastructure in general. Pretend that this is not the case (outside of
the loading code) by opening a pseudo demuxer that does nothing. One
advantage is that the initialization code is now the same, and there's
no confusion about what the difference between track->stream,
track->sh_sub and mpctx->sh_sub is supposed to be.
This is a bit stupid, and it would be much better if there were proper
subtitle demuxers (there are many in recent FFmpeg, but not Libav). So
for now this is just a transition to a more proper architecture. Look
at demux_sub like an artifical limb: it's ugly, but don't hate it - it
helps you to get on with your life.
The frontend doesn't use this.
Also use double for returning the chapter times. Everything uses double
for times, and there's no reason to use float here.
Some preparations to simplify demux_mkv and demux_lavf.
struct demux_stream manages state for each stream type that is being
demuxed (audio/video/sub). demux_stream is rather annoying, especially
the id and sh members, which are often used by the demuxers to determine
current stream and so on. Demuxers don't really have to access this,
except for testing whether a stream is selected and to add packets.
Add a new_sh_stream(), which allows creating streams without having the
caller specify any kind of stream ID. Demuxers should just use sh_stream
pointers, instead of multiple kinds of IDs and indexes.
Matroska files can contain multiple segments, which are literally
further Matroska files appended to the main file. They can be referenced
by segment linking.
While this is an extraordinarily useless and dumb feature, we support it
for the hell of it.
This is implemented by adding a further demuxer parameter for skipping
segments. When scanning for linked segments, each file is opened
multiple times, until there are no further segments found. Each segment
will have a separate demuxer instance (with a separate file handle
etc.).
It appears the Matroska spec. has an even worse feature for segments:
live streaming can completely reconfigure the stream by starting a new
segment. We won't add support for it, because there are 0 people on this
earth who think Matroska life streaming is a good idea. (As opposed to
serving Matroska/WebM files via HTTP.)
The condition that checked whether the chapters are out of order and
should be sorted was inverted. This likely wasn't noticed in testing,
because even if the chapters are unsorted, if the last two chapters
were sorted, the rest got sorted too.
Instead of doing this silly check, always sort the chapters after
demuxer initialization. Also make sure the sort order is stable in case
chapter start times are the same (original_index check).
Makes sure that seeking to a given time position shows the subtitle at
that position. This can fail if the subtitle packet is not close enough
to the seek target. Always enabled for hr-seeks, and can be manually
enabled for normal seeks with --mkv-subtitle-preroll.
This helps displaying subtitles correctly with ordered chapters. When
switching ordered chapter segments, a seek is performed. If the subtitle
is timed slightly before the start of the segment, it normally won't be
demuxed. This is a problem with all seeks, but in this case normal
playback is affected. Since switching segments always uses hr-seeks,
the code added by this commit is always active in this situation.
If no subtitles are selected or the subtitles come from an external
file, the demuxer should behave exactly as before this commit.
Emulate percentage-seeks (SEEK_FACTOR) as normal time-seeks if possible.
This fixes some issues with (let's call it) low quality implementations
of SEEK_FACTOR (e.g. demux_mkv basically interprets this as byte-seek,
and also seeking to 99.9% makes it seek back to the start).
For weird MPEG formats the demuxer level SEEK_FACTOR is still used.
These formats, which can have timestamp resets, are identified by
setting demuxer->ts_resets_possible to true.
Also, have get_current_pos_ratio() follow the same rules, and calculate
the percentage position with the file position if timestamp resets are
possible.
This actually fixes percentage-seeks in .ts files with demux_lavf.c.
This kind of seek is not really used now, but it will be more important
when we add a progress bar.
Note: seeking in chained ogg files is still completely broken. The main
issue is that ffmpeg doesn't provide a sane API for dealing with
timestamp resets, and trying to do byte seeks with ogg confuses demuxer
and decoder (or something like this) and just does random things.
(Tested with two concatenated flac-in-ogg files).
The percent position is used for the OSD, the status line, and for the
OSD bar (shown on seeks). By default, the PTS of the last demuxed packet
was used to calculate it. This led to a "jumpy" display when the
percentage value (casted to int) was changing. The reasons for this were
the presence of video frame reordering (packet PTS is not monotonic), or
getting PTS values from different streams (like audio/subs).
Since these rely on PTS values and correct file durations anyway,
simplify it by calculating it with the current playback position in
mplayer.c instead.
There should be no functional changes, except that way how avoiding
spamming the terminal with the overflow warning is handled changes a
bit.
The removed check for ds->eof looks suspicious, but it should be
redundant now.
Rearrange some code to make it easier readable. Remove some dead code,
and stop printing AVI headers in demux_lavf. (These are not actual AVI
headers, just for internal use.)
There should be no functional changes, other than reducing output in
verbose mode.
Change the only usage of HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT, demux.h, to use an #ifdef
instead. In theory, a configure check is better, but nobody does it this
way anyway, and we seek to reduce the configure script.
Improve EOF handling in ds_fill_buffer for the case where one stream ends
much earlier than the others, in particular make sure the "too many ..."
message is not printed over and over.

libavformat wants to read a full ~400KB of data to determine whether
it's really AAC. This causes slow startup with AAC web radio streams [1]
(possible due to a broken initial packet). There are similar issues
with other file formats.
Make the probe "score" (libavformat's mechanism for testing file
formats) configurable with the -lavfdtops:probescore option. This allows
lowering the amount of data read on probing. If the probe score is below
the probescore option value, demux_lavf will try to get a higher score
by feeding more data to libavformat, until the required score or the
max. probe size is reached.
Remove the lavf_preferred demuxer entry. This had a purpose in
mplayer-svn, but now there doesn't seem to be any good reason for it
to exist. Make sure that our native "good" demuxers are above
demux_lavf in demuxer_list[] instead (so that they are preferred).

Finish renaming directories and moving files. Adjust all include
statements to make the previous commit compile.
The two commits are separate, because git is bad at tracking renames
and content changes at the same time.
Also take this as an opportunity to remove the separation between
"common" and "mplayer" sources in the Makefile. ("common" used to be
shared between mplayer and mencoder.)
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
