Note that you still need --vd-lavc-o='strict=-2' to enable the decoder.
Also, there's no guarantee that all required features for HEVC demuxing
are actually implemented, nor that the current muxing schema is the
final one.
The way this was added to FFmpeg is less than ideal, because it requires
text parsing in the Matroska demuxer. But in order to use the FFmpeg
webvtt-to-ass converter, we still have to mimic this in some way. We do
this by putting the parsing into sd_lavc_conv.c, before the subtitle
packet is passed to libavcodec. At least this keeps the ugliness out of
unrelated code.
There is some change that FFmpeg will fix their design eventually.
Instead of rewriting the parsing code, we simply borrow it from FFmpeg's
Matroska demuxer.
Nobody uses this, and this is an absolute waste of time. Even the user
who reported this turned out to have produced a sample manually.
Sample produced with:
wget http://diracvideo.org/download/test-streams/raw/vts/vts.LD-8Mb.drc
mkvmerge -o dirac.mkv vts.LD-8Mb.drc
mkvmerge writes a sort of broken aspect ratio. libavformat interprets it
as 1:1 PAR, while demux_mkv thinks this is a 1:1 DAR. Maybe libavformat
is more correct here.
FFmpeg recently changed how it writes Opus-in-Matroska to match
the A_OPUS/EXPERIMENTAL name that mkvmerge uses, with the caveat
that things will change and compatibility with old files can get
worked out when the spec is finalized.
This adds both A_OPUS and A_OPUS/EXPERIMENTAL so that *hopefully*
it can play both the newer files that use A_OPUS/EXPERIMENTAL, and
older ones muxed by FFmpeg that were simply A_OPUS, since this is
also what FFmpeg seems to be doing to handle the situation.
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.
