For platforms which send emulated mouse inputs for touch-unaware clients,
such as Win32 and X11, this option enables the native multitouch handling
and disables emulated mouse inputs. This enables interested scripts to
handle multitouch events while keeping compatibility with touch-unaware
scripts.
This adds --input-touch-emulate-mouse option, which controls whether to
enable legacy touch handling where touch inputs are emulated as mouse
inputs. This establishes a primary touch point (the one with the lowest
index) as the emulated mouse position, and MBTN_LEFT up/down with the
appearance of the first touch point and the disappearance of the last
touch point.
This fixes some problems with touch handling on Wayland, for example
attempting to pinch results in a double click.
This adds touch-pos property, which contains the information of all
current touch points. The property has sub properties:
touch-pos/count: the number of current touch points
touch-pos/N/x,y: the position of touch point N
touch-pos/N/id: unique identifier of the touch point
the Screen property localizedName returns a none unique dynamic name
that doesn't allow a specific selection of a Screen on every OS boot.
the name consists of the vendor name and model name (eg DELL U2723QE).
if the same model display is connected to the system several times,
macOS starts to add numbers to the localizedName (eg DELL U2723QE (1)),
that may not be associated to the same Screen on every OS boot or
connecting the display. it also changes the name of the first connected
display by adding that numeration. this makes it impossible specify the
proper screen with the screen-name option every time.
to circumvent this we remove the enumeration from the name and instead
add the serial number to the display-names property. this makes the
actual Screen unique and none dynamic. furthermore the selection of a
screen by name will check for equality for the old localizedName, simple
name without enumeration, serial number and the combined name with
serial number. this makes it possible to select the screen by either of
those names and identifiers, and keeps backwards compatibility with the
old behaviour.
Examples:
localized name (System Settings name): DELL U2723QE, DELL U2723QE (1)
simple name: DELL U2723QE
serial number: 123456789
combined name: DELL U2723QE (123456789)
Currently they refer to the OSC documentation. However,
the "mp.options functions" already documents that, is more detailed,
and does not contain false statements like "there may be no spaces around
the ``=`` or anywhere else" (the primitive parser does not care about
them, so starting a string option value with spaces is perfectly fine).
Change them to refer to "mp.options functions" and remove the redundant
section in the OSC documentation.
This allows users to set buffer duration in exclusive mode. We have
been using the default device period as the buffer size and it is
robust enough in most cases. However, on some devices there are
horrible glitches after a stream reset. Unfortunately, the issue is not
consistently reproducible, but using a smaller buffer size (e.g., the
minimum device period) seems to resolve the problem.
Fixes#13715.
This option type is not used only by filter options: they're already
used by --ao, --vo, and --gpu-context. Replace the mentions of
"filter" to "item" instead, and changes some languages to improve clarity.
Also change the documentation on "Filter options" to describe what it
really is, and fix a typo.
This gives these properties the "time" type, which allows them to be pretty-printed as HH:MM:SS easily (but also still allows raw formatting using e.g. ${=sub-start}).
This lets you press / in page 4 of the stats and type a keybinding or
part of its command to filter it by using mp.input.
This works badly without a VO because both stats.lua and console.lua use
show-text and only one can be displayed at a time, but it's still better
than not having the search available at all.
Enable ASS_FEATURE_{WHOLE_TEXT_LAYOUT, BIDI_BRACKETS} and auto base
detection by default, and add an option to disable this if needed.
This is strictly an improvement for webvtt files as they always use
auto base detection. This _fixes_ right-to-left text rendering for
webvtt files which correctly mark rtl/ltr. Webvtt files obtained from
sources which sideload the RTL information through css also see an
improvement due to the auto detection.
Generally SRT files also want this, but some are also written to
workaround VSFilter quirks.

Avoid having to configure both the OSD and the stats script opts when
you change the OSD options, in particular avoid having to convert colors
to BGR.
Also document the shadow options.
font_size, border_size and shadow offset defaults are kept because the
same values look much bigger in the stats than in the corresponding OSD
options.
osd-back-color is now respected without extra checks until you
explicitly set a shadow_color.
Showing media titles in the playlist is pointless when sources are ill
tagged and media titles contain only garbage. Being able to opt for
file names at least gives us a choice in such cases.
Turns out that adding more medatata like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision would
produce a lot of duplication and it is better to centralize it around
the track-list property.
Fixes: e720159f72
Adds support for extracting codec profile. Old properties are redirected
to new one and removed from docs. Likely will stay like that forever as
there is no reason to remove them.
As a effect of unification of properties between audio and video,
video-codec will now print codec (format) descriptive name, not decoder
long name as it were before. In practice this change fixes what docs
says. If you really need decoder name, use the `track-list/N/decoder-desc`.
Probing for hwdec can be very slow: on my setup (Nvidia GPU without
VP9 hwdec capability), this causes 2x hot cache startup time compared
to explicitly disabling VP9 in this list (500 ms -> 1 000 ms).
Also remove --vo=vdpau reference.
In many places, flags options have duplicate descriptions like
--break-player and --no-break-player. This is redundant since the
equivalence of this syntax to --break-player=<yes|no> is already
documented, and the =<yes|no> syntax is more in line with the syntax
of other option types.
This replaces all usage of --no-foobar with --foobar=no, and use
--foobar=<yes|no> when possible.
Basically a simple way to perform any command/property action from the
command line. This takes the exact same syntax as input.conf but not
including the key naturally. Potentially useful for weird properties
that don't map well to options (like ao-volume). Fixes#12353.
This enhancement makes it easier to create constant width property
expansions, useful for the `--term-status-msg`. Additionally, it changes
to `%f` printing with manual zero trimming, which is easier to control
than `%g`. With this method, we can directly specify precision, not just
significant numbers. This approach also avoids overly high precision for
values less than 1, which is not necessary for a generic floating-point
print function.
A new print helper function is added, which can be used with adjusted
precision for specific cases where a different default is needed. This
also unifies the code slightly.
Escape all messages in osc.lua, because other than the title they
weren't being escaped at all. If for example you did mpv foo.mp4
'{\fs50}bar.mp4' and script-message osc-playlist, it would just render
the second entry as bar.mp4 in big text.
The title was escaped partially, now the escaping is complete because:
- It escapes \. Backslashes at the end of the title are escaped instead
of being stripped, and \n, \N and \h are now printed verbatim. In
particular, "\\n" is no longer converted to space and is printed
verbatim instead which is more correct.
- Newlines ("\n", not the "\\n" escape sequence) are converted to spaces
instead of rendering them and messing up the text positioning within
the OSC.
- Spaces at the start are preserved.
Fixes#11209, fixes#11275.
This adds a command to escape ASS tags to remove code duplication
between sub/osd_libass.c, console.lua, osc.lua, stats.lua and any user
script that calls mp.create_osd_overlay().
A command is used instead of scripting functions so that all clients can
use this and not just use Lua and JS ones.
osd_mangle_ass() also interprets osd-sym-cc and osd-ass-cc/{0,1}, but
since they use invalid UTF-8 characters there is no risk of escape-ass
users using them by accident, like with any OSD message.
Always replacing \n with \\N in mangle_ass() even when it is not called
by escape-ass doesn't seem to cause any issue, but I made it conditional
anyway to avoid changing how all OSD messages are treated unnecessarily.
There was no way for scripts to know the current size of the terminal,
which is essintial if they want to provide a good user experience even
without a window.
The terminal is assumed to be 80x24 in size, the new options
`term_width_limit` and `term_height_limit` can be used to overwrite
that.
Lines longer then the terminal width cause problems with scrolling
pages and need to be shortened.
The algorithm used for shortening can deal with tabs and escape
sequences, has rudimentary support for UTF-8 and runs in O(n).
avih helped in the creation of the term_ellipsis() function and split()
is also from him.
Manually editing interface-changes.rst is a giant maintenance pain that
causes merge conflicts all the time. Stop doing that nonsense and
instead have changes be written to files in DOCS/interface-changes. Also
remove that one sentence in changes.rst because it's just not true.
Fixes the issue described in https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/11862
for SDR files for non-d3d11 gpu-api. We currently don't have a smarter
way to get the real on-the-wire bpc for other APIs, so this is the best
that can be done.
Clarify that --autofit-larger sets the maximum size of the window.
The original wording was not written with runtime change in mind,
so the implication of "not changing size" is ambiguous.
As the first aligned format this required a fix to reconfig().
Adding the other component-swapped formats in this group would be trivial
but I checked the DRM database [1] and no driver exists that supports
one of those but not YUYV and this is quite fringe as-is, so I opted not to.

replaces the old focus-on-open option with a more generic focus-on

Some incorrect syntax is used in DOCS/man/input.rst with c678033c1d
causing failure of PDF manual generation with rst2pdf. There are single
rather than double back-ticks for insert-at and insert-at-play so this
is fixed and a couple of typos are also corrected with this commit.
Previously there was no way to specify the field order of interlaced videos
when deinterlacing with inbuilt filters. Lavfi deinterlacers seemed to prefer
top field order while inbuilt ones (vdpaupp, vavpp, d3d11vpp) seemed to prefer
bottom field order. The default "auto" option should work exactly as before
while specifying either "tff" or "bff" should force the specified field order
This command initializes a vo dragging request for VOs that implement
the new VOCTRL_BEGIN_DRAGGING voctrl. This allows scripts to begin vo
dragging for any button press event.
Ended up being a bad idea. As a property, this inherently has more
functionality and the tradeoff of being able to do --ao-volume wasn't
worth it.
This reverts commit 58ed620c06.
The --alpha option currently covers two related but different concepts:
whether or not to ignore the alpha component and possibly blending it
with a background. Because of the way the option currently works, it is
impossible to have a transparent window (which requires setting
--alpha=yes) while blending it with the background at the same time. To
solve this, let's rework it so it it superseded by the background
option.
--background controls what kind of background to set for the image if
possible. It can be blended with the set background color, with tiles,
or not blended at all (the last one is still broken on X11/mesa except
for GLX, *sigh*). In this new paradigm, --alpha=no has no real purpose
because you can simply set the background to color and whatever color
you want for exactly the same effect. So the option is removed. Instead,
the hint set by windowing backends (i.e. setting
ra_ctx->opts.want_alpha) can by done with the --background option.
As an aside, the colors in vo_gpu are currently bugged due to not
pre-multiplying the alpha and it seems no one ever noticed. The next
commit fixes that. vo_gpu_next support happens latter since it requires
new things from libplacebo.
Fixes#9615.
Beef up the barebones description for the Mitchell filter and make it
consistent with the other --scale examples. In addition to this, make
some wording changes to make the language in the documentation a bit
more unified.
Before this change it was pretty obvious that multiple authors
contributed to this part of the manual (at completely different
timeframes), so the language was somewhat disjointed. The Mitchell
description was also not very helpful.
All other ao options are documented there so make ALSA the same.
Also remove the (Linux only) wording since some systems (e.g. FreeBSD)
provide compatibility layer for it.
While making this larger do make audio filters react slower, it doesn't
always make softvol react slower. This is because the softvol reaction
speed is related to the ao buffer size which on many systems have an
upper limit, typically much lower than 200 ms. In this case the softvol
won't react slower. Change the wording to clarify this.
This commit adds a DND_INSERT_NEXT action option for drag-and-drop,
allows for selecting it through the --drag-and-drop=insert-next option,
and adds the necessary plumbing to make that happen when something is
dragged onto the player.
Analogous changes to the previous commit ("add loadfile insert-next commands"),
but for the `loadlist` command.
This allows us to insert a new playlist next in the current playlist,
rather than just appending it to the end.
This commit adds two new commands (`insert-next` and `insert-next-play`)
which mirror the existing commands, `append` and `append-play` in
functionality, with the difference that they insert directly after the
current playlist entry, rather than at the end of the playlist.
This change gives MPV a piece of functionality already found in (for
example) Spotify's media player: "play next". Additionally, using the
new `insert-next` command, users can trivially write a script to play a
new piece of media immediately without otherwise clearing or altering
the remainder of the playlist.
This has defaulted to yes for a very long time, but evidentally it
annoys a lot of people (including myself). My argument is that this
makes no sense. mpv is for videos; not text. A 1920x1080 video should
open as 1920x1080 regardless of whatever the DPI settings of the OS is.
This can get very silly when you consider watching a 4k video which will
get this additional scale factor which is virtually never desirable.
Whether or not the OS and/or WM prevents it from getting larger than the
screen depends on a lot of things.
Previously some windowing backends required that this option be set to
yes in order to report a dpi scale value other than 1, but this should
be fixed with the previous commits. The only difference is whether or
not to scale the window by the additional factor.
Fixes#13465.
On wayland, depending on the wl_output protocol version used,
the display-names property can have different values. Mention
this in the documentation, like for other platforms.
Document the use cases for enabling or disabling the wheel preprocessing.
Also note that this option has no effect on any filtering already done
by the OS/driver.
The current documentation lacks clarity regarding the interaction
between the `repeatable` and `complex` options. Through an analysis
of the source code (`player/lua/defaults.lua` and
`player/js/defaults.js`), it was observed that the `repeatable` option
is only meaningful when the `complex` option is not enabled.
Additionally, the `complex` option in the existing documentation is
confusing, actually `fn` can be called on key repeat when `complex` is
`true` and `repeatable` is not `true`.
To address these issues, the documentation for the `repeatable` option
was updated to specify that it only applies when the `complex` option is
not set to `true`. Furthermore, the description of the `complex` and
`event` were revised to acknowledge the occurrence of key repeat events.
This is technically due to the previous commits that made subtitle
rendering more efficient by eliminating redraws, but working around this
particular edge case is useless. The sub-clear-on-seek option was
originally introduced in d5940fabcd and
specifically is a workaround for completely broken mkv files. There is
no reason to use it otherwise. Because that option disables all
duplicate checking and the previous commits rework subtitle rendering in
the still image case to be dependent on keeping track of packets, the
end result is that you will get the same line rendered multiple times.
However the important case of broken mkv files with duplicate ReadOrder
fields still work just fine with --no-video. So instead of bothering
trying to make this option "work", just clarify that stuff can break
since, again, there's no reason to use it other than as a workaround for
broken files.
* Range of accepted values for teletext_page now include 0 and -1.
* 0 means "subtitle" and -1 means "*".
* Make 0 the default.

Deinterlacing required that the user set it on/off themselves, but we
actually have handy flags for detecting if a frame is interlaced. So
it's pretty simple to make an auto option using that. Unfortunately,
life is not quite that simple and there are known cases of false
positives from the ffmpeg flags so we can't make auto the default value.
However, it still may have some utility for some people, and the
detection could potentially be improved upon later. Closes#10358.
vo_rpi and its related code has pretty much historically been a
disaster in mpv. The build regularly gets broken and since nobody uses
it, it takes months for anyone to notice. There was also that time where
fullscreen was broken for about a year and a half. Also building in waf
was entirely broken for about a couple of years or so due to mysterious
reasons no one ever figured out (meson magically fixed it).
Anyways, once again the build is broken due to rpi being forgotten about
again, but instead of pretending to support this crap. Just drop it all.
Nowadays, mmal hwdec is a relic since these devices are better off using
the v4l2m2m ffmpeg fork instead which actually uses KMS properly. RPI 1
and 2 probably can't do this and will remain broken but oh well blame
Broadcom for being special snowflakes and not using standard APIs (my
rockpro worked out of the box; just saying). RPI 2 is nearly 10 years
old anyways, so I think you can afford a new SBC by now. If we were
nicer, there would be a deprecation period, but this is broken in the
last major release anyway so too late.
Closes#13402.
This can be used to auto reload the input configuration file, e.g. in
vim:
autocmd BufWritePost ~/.config/mpv/input.conf silent !echo load-input-conf %:p | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket
Partially fixes#6362.
Additionally this can be used as a replacement for deprecated input
sections if they are ever actually removed. For example, if you want to
define different bindings for images, you can load-input-conf an
input.conf for images, and load the original again when switching to a
video. Though currently you would have to redefine builtin bindings that
were overwritten with image ones in the default input.conf.
Unlike set include mpv.conf, this works after playback has started. It
can be used to auto reload the configuration, e.g. in vim:
autocmd BufWritePost ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf silent !echo load-config-file %:p | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket
Partially fixes#6362.
Some X11 window managers support controlling the title bar independently
from other window decorations with _MOTIF_WM_HINTS. This allows hiding
the title bar while keeping other decorations like the resizing borders.
Let mpv respect the --title-bar option on X11 so --no-title-bar can hide
the title bar only like on win32.
Save the cache to separate files to avoid loading/saving a huge combined
libplacebo.cache. This approach allows the saving of only new cache
objects and avoids resaving the entire cache, especially even if only a
tiny change was made.
This commit improves the cold start time of mpv and avoids saving data
when it's not necessary.
Number of changes were made:
- each cached object is saved in its own file
- cache files are prefixed with the name of cached object
- cache directory is cleaned on each uninit
- the least recently used cache files are removed if cumulative cache
size is above limit
- files used in the recent 24 hours are not removed to allow changes
to mpv.conf without worrying about the cache being removed during
experimentation
- shader cache size limit is set to 128 MiB
- icc cache size limit is set to 1.5 GiB
- cache objects are loaded/saved as needed
This commit eliminates the runtime performance penalty associated with
the size cache. While we continue to maintain the cache limit to prevent
retaining stale objects, mpv now only loads a small subset of files that
are currently required for playback, instead of loading all files.
I don't actually deinterlace ever but allegedly this is better than
yadif, and there's no real reason to not have this be the fallback
deinterlace when we're not using hw frames. Also change various mentions
of yadif to bwdif. Ref #12835.
This exports `current-gpu-context` property, which is the string
description of the current active GPU context. This allows scripts to
uniquely identify the platform and backend used for --vo=gpu
and --vo=gpu-next.
mp.observe_property('foo', nil, ...) calls the handler at least 2 times
on each playlist change even when the property doesn't change. This is
dangerous because if you haven't read observe_property's documentation
in a long time this is easy to forget, and you can end up using it for
handlers that are computationally expensive or that cause unintended
side effects.
Therefore, this commit discourages its use more explicitly in the
documentation, and replaces its usages in scripts.
For console.lua, observing focused with type nil leads to calling
mp.osd_message('') when changing file while playing in the terminal with
the console disabled. I don't notice issues from this, but it's safer to
avoid it.
For playlist and track-list this doesn't really matter since they
trigger multiple changes on each new file anyway, but changing it can
avoid encouraging people to imitate the code.
One usage of none in stats.lua is kept because according to b9084dfd47
it is a hack to replicate the deprecated tick event.
When running the console in the terminal, style log lines with the same
escape sequences as msg.c.
mp.input can also specify terminal escape sequences, e.g. a script to
select a playlist entry can invert the color of the selection.
Also add a missing newline to help's error message.
This doesn't actually work on either Windows or Linux with --terminal.
With --no-terminal or --no-input-terminal the SIGTERM handler is never
registered, so it definitely can't work.
Just remove the note about signals because it would be complicated to
explain that they don't terminate abruptly only with --terminal and only
if that signal has a handler, and it wouldn't be of interest to most
users.
fe875083b3 confused things a bit and made
--no-subs-with-matching-audio actually mean what it says: no subtitles
if the languages match. However, the option actually meant no non-forced
subtitles not no subtitles at all. This isn't really intuitive so
instead of changing the behavior back to the old way (we already have a
release since then), add a third option "forced" which is equivalent to
the old meaning of --no-subs-with-matching audio. Fixes#13151.
Currently, libplacebo always tries to reconfigure the d3d11 swapchain
to a 10-bit output format because disable_10bit_sdr isn't set to true,
even when an 8-bit format is explicitly requested via
--d3d11-output-format.
Fix this by passing the requested output format preference to libplacebo.
Document that this option may be ignored.
--ao=pipewire has been preferred on Linux for a long time, and this note
even makes it sound like alsa is preferred on any system. Just say that
the print order is the order in which the drivers are tried so this note
won't have to be updated again in the future, like --gpu-context's
documentation does.
This section has no reason to exist anymore because:
- No "desktop issues" sections exist for other platforms, and all other
Linux-specific issues are represented as notes for options. This section
only addressed one specific issue.
- This section was shortened significantly with commit
2c46ae8ea3, so there is no need for
this to be a separate section anymore.
- This section was shortened again with commit
d5e681e95d, when the original rationale
behind this section became outdated because GNOME has implemented the
idle inhibit protocol.
The historical info is moved to the documentation of --stop-screensaver.
Some places in the manpage uses `.. admonition:: Warning` instead of
the specific directive type `.. warning::` for warning admonitions.
This causes the "Warning" text appearing in black color instead of red.
Correct them here.
- --image-display-duration does not hide the OSC.
- Saying "Setting --image-display-duration" makes no sense because it is
not a boolean and it cannot be unset.
When hovering certain elements over the OSC, using the mouse wheel can
result in special commands (such as seeking, changing audio tracks,
etc.) Not everyone neccessarily wants this feature, so add an option to
make it possible to disable all of it. Maybe more fine-tuned control
would be more ideal, but probably not worth it. Fixes#13096.
f1c4d20e65 added this option, but the
documentation is actually backwards. --replaygain-clip allows clipping.
Having it disabled, the default, prevents it. Keep the behavior the
same, but change the documentation to reflect reality. Closes#13111.
This is useful for completing files and more rarely for profiles. It
will also be useful to third-party scripts interacting with the console
once the API to do it is merged.
I honestly don’t care either way but I also don’t believe this innocent
and cute hat is worth repeatedly having people show up on the issue
tracker to aggressively virtue signal and then shit-talk the project
elsewhere when their “concerns” are ignored and made fun of.
For the record, I approve of neither brand of childish nonsense.
If your workflow depends on December festivities, feel free to use an
alternative OSC implementation.
Fixes#13082 and #9548
This filter is a bit complicated, but one of the essential parts of it
is removing text enclosed by particular set of characters (e.g. text
inbetween []). This was previously hardcoded to only take into account
parenthesis and brackets, but people may want to filter more things so
make this customizable. The option only takes "left hand characters" so
the right pair is mapped internally if applicable. If not, then we just
use the same character. Fixes#8268 since the unicode character in
question can just be passed to this option.
A simplified version of the text width estimation code from uosc.
An osd_overlay is created with compute_bounds=true for measuring the
width of the lower case alphabet at what's estimated to be the largest
font size possible without clipping.
The lower case alphabet was chosen to get decent results for proportional
fonts, even if they aren't officially supported.
Add --secondary-sub-delay option and decouple --sub-delay from secondary
subtitles. This produces desirable behavior in most cases as secondary
and primary subtitles tracks tend to be timed independently of one
another.
This feature is implemented by turning the sub_delay field in
mp_subtitle_opts into an array of 2 floats. From here the track index is
either passed around or derived when sub_delay is needed. There are some
cases in dec_sub.c where it is possible for dec_sub.order (equivalent to
track index) to be -1. In these cases, sub_delay is inferred as 0.
the cocoa backend was removed and all functionality is either available
on all macOS backends or explicitly only with cocoa-cb. the manual
should properly reflect that change.
also remove the last mention of the old cocoa backend.
This property was never encouraged. The manual even stated that "You
should avoid using it, unless you absolutely have to." Since we now have
user-data which is superior in every single way and replaces this,
delete this property. The manual also has threatened people for years
with the line "It's a makeshift solution which could go away any time
(for example, when a better solution becomes available)." We were nice
and deprecated it in 1d00aee8e1 for a
while to give script authors some time to update. Let's remove it for
good now.
Only vaapi-copy variant as nothing can map D3D12 resources currently.
And even if we would add resource sharing to D3D11 it would invoke copy
at some point, so there is no point really. Maybe in the future when
libplacebo get smarter about resource sharing on Windows, but practical
advantages are really small. I've tested it with Vulkan <-> D3D11
sharing and GPU <-> GPU copy is still invoked. Better than CPU memcpy,
something for the future.
The "auto" logic is vastly better than setting a specific size. This
option amounts to "allow users to shoot themselves in the foot" flag,
given that the vast majority of ICC profiles in the wild are fine on
17x17x17 or even smaller 3DLUTs.
Setting stupidly high --3dlut-size is the main source of ICC-related
slow startup issues, and there is absolutely no conceivably benefit to
going above the defaults except for pixel peeping and chasing tiny PSNR
increments.
D3D11 is actually the main platform that suffers from slow shader
compilation, typical Vulkan/GL drivers are either very fast to begin
with, or already internally cache.
Display aspect ratio (aspect) and pixel aspect ratio (par) are already
exported, but storage aspect ratio (sar) isn't. This value is needed to
display the storage aspect ratio for non-square pixel sources in stats.lua.
This exports two new properties: video-params/sar and video-params/sar-name.
Docmentation is updated accordingly.
Stretch a subtitle duration so it ends when the next one starts.
Should help with subtitles which erroneously have zero durations.
I found such a subrip substitles stream in the wild.

There's some geometry-related things that mpv has to calculate before
the window is actually mapped onto the screen in wayland. But there's no
way to know which output the window will end up on before it happens, so
it's possible to calculate it using the wrong values. mpv corrects
itself later when the surface event happens, but making the initial
guess work better can help in certain cases.
find_output is the only thing that needs to be changed here. Its main
purpose is to grab the right output based on user settings when we're
trying to full screen and giving a fallback in case we don't have
wl->current_output yet. The x11 code already does something similar, so
we're basically just copying it. Allow user settings like --screen and
--screen-name to influence the initial wl_output guess. Those options
won't actually place the window on that specific screen since we can't
do that in wayland, but if the user knows where the window will end up
beforehand it makes sense to listen to the arguments they pass. If
something goes wrong, then we just fallback to 0 like before.
currently hysteresis-secs only works when the demuxer-max-bytes fills
up. but it's possible for the cache-secs/demuxer-readahead-secs to be
reached first.
in those cases, hysteresis-secs doesn't work and keeps buffering
non-stop. but the goal of this option was to save power by avoiding
non-stop buffering so go ahead and make it respect cache-secs as well.
additionally remove some redundant repetition from the docs.
5f74ed5828 deprecated this many years ago.
The utility is questionable at best given that -remove exists and is
more natural to use. Free up some code and drop it.
The MPV_LEAK_REPORT environment variable was previously read in order to
determine whether or not to enable memory reporting for javascript
scripts. This is kind of weird and deviates from the norm of exposing an
option to the user. So let's just add --js-memory-report and disable it
by default instead.
--play-dir sounds like it has something to do with directories so change
it. The play_dir variable is used a bunch everywhere internally so
whatever just leave it alone instead of renaming that.
This option has exactly the same semantics are other mpv options that
override a particular thing with something from the user. So instead of
the "force-style" name, use "-overrides" which is more consistent.
The plural form is used since it's a list option.
Other similar options are in the form of --foo-override not
--override-foo. The display-fps one was backwards so flip it around the
other way for consistency reasons.
This better reflects what it actually does. As a bonus, script writers
won't be misled into thinking that fps displays the actual video or
display fps.
Peak detection greatly increases HDR experience. Performance hit of
non-delayed detection is not that significant and is in line with
current default settings.
Nobody except a chosen few (I'm not one of them) even knows what it
means. Multiple people thought it was actually some kind of rendering
bug. Just disable it by default. Closes#12671.
I started going through the blame but once I got to mplayer commits from
20 years ago, I stopped bothering. This obscure option has always been
disabled by default, but there's zero reason, as far as I know, to not
just enable it today. Some CDs (particularly very old ones) have the
first sector shifted a bit and not starting exactly at 0. This makes the
logic that tries to get all the chapters completely fail and thus you
can't skip through tracks. However if you just enable this obscure
option, it just works. For anything that starts exactly at 0, the
calculated offset is just 0 anyway so it's a no-op and works exactly the
same. So basically, there's literally no reason to not just always try
to correct for the offset of the first sector by default.
Fixes#8777.
Why a bigger search-interval is required:
scaletempo2 doesn't do a good job when the signal contains frequencies
less then 1/search_interval. With a search interval of 30ms that means
anything below 33.333Hz sounds bad.
Depending on the genre it's very for music to contain frequencies down
to 30Hz, and sometimes even a little bit below that. Therefore a higher
default value is needed to handle such cases.
Based on that an argument can be made for a value of 50, as that should
work down to 20Hz, or something even higher because movies sometimes
have some infrasonic content.
However the downside of big search intervals is increased CPU usage and
intelligibility at higher speeds, as it effectively leads to parts of
the audio being skipped.
A value of 40 can handle frequencies down to 25Hz, enough for all music
except very rare edge cases, while still providing decent
intelligibility.
Why a smaller window-size is required:
Large values reduce intelligibility at high speeds and therefore small
values are preferred.
However when values get too small it starts to sound weird
(similar to librubberband).
In my testing a value of 10 already works well, but adding a small
safety margin seems like a good idea, especially since it made no
noticeable difference to intelligibility, which is why 12 was chosen.
add support for vulkan through metal and a translation layer like
MoltenVK. also add the possibility to use different render timing modes
for testing.
i still consider this experimental atm.
Added to the functions `mp.add_timeout` and `mp.add_periodic_timer`.
If the `disabled` argument is set to `true` or a truthy value, the
timer will wait to be manually started with a call to its `resume()`
method.
Only vpdau-copy works with EGL. 2d1d815cc7 already added this to
manpage, and 1c8d2246bf removed it again, but that seems to be a mistake
because I can only get vdpau to work with GLX, and another user also
reported that only vdpau-copy was working for him with the default EGL.
playlist-prev-playlist goes to the beginning of the previous playlist
because this seems more useful and symmetrical to
playlist-next-playlist. It does not go to the beginning when the current
playlist-path starts with the previous playlist-path, e.g. with mpv
--loop-playlist foo/, which expands to foo/{1..9}.zip, the current
playlist path foo/1.zip beings with the playlist-path foo/ of {2..9}.zip
and thus playlist-prev-playlist goes to 9.zip rather than to 2.zip.
Closes#12495.
Completion suggestions are now nicely formatted into a table.
Maximum width of the table is estimated based on OSD size and
font size.
This requires a new scaling factor option `font_hw_ratio`.
A factor of 2.15 works great for me,
but the default is 2.0 to avoid problems with other fonts.
The space between columns is automatically adjusted to be
between 2 and 8 spaces.
It tries to use as few rows as possible.
There's really no reason not to do this especially since sub-codepage
already defaults to auto. Also change logging in charset_conv since
telling us that the data is UTF-8 if the passed codepage value is "auto"
or "utf-8" is really not useful information (that's the expectation).
What are cue sheets not metadata or something? No reason this needs to
be a separate option so just deprecate it. This does mean that the
default value changes from "auto" to "utf-8" for this obscure fringe
case. I really hope people don't use non-UTF-8 cuesheets, but the next
commit will change the default of --metadata-codepage to "auto" so
there's no actual change in behavior to users.
This reverts commit 576e86bfa1 (functionally).
Right now, the --config-dir option silently causes all watch_later and cache
files to be written in the --config-dir as well. This is pretty uninitutive
and also not desirable in most cases so get rid of this.
libmpv users will have to set the corresponding options or env vars if they
want to keep the old behaviour.
Combine the cover art whitelist with the extensions in
--cover-art-auto-exts instead of hardcoding them. This is shorter,
checks for more extensions, saves us from updating the whitelist
everytime we add a new image extension, and since the whitelist had
gotten so big and the priority is calculated as
MP_ARRAY_SIZE(cover_files) - n, files like cover.jpg were taking
priority over cover art loaded by --cover-art-auto=exact.
