The complex filter support that will be added makes much more complex
use of libavfilter, and I'm not going to bother with adding hacks to
keep libavfilter optional.
Will be helpful for the coming filter support. I planned on merging
audio/video decoding, but this will have to wait a bit longer, so only
remove the duplicate status codes.
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.
Makes the next commit simpler. It's probably a bad idea to add more
fields to the global state, but on the other hand the client API state
is pretty much per-instance anyway. It also will help with things like
the proposed libmpv custom stream API.
mp_parse_escape() is used by the JSON parser in json.c, and JSON allows
escaping "/" (solidus).
Although it makes no sense, apparently Javascript traditionally allowed
that as escape sequence for working around issues with embedding
Javascript in HTML. (Or something like this must have been the history
of this issue.) Since it's valid in Javascript, it had to be valid in
JSON as well, and JSON explicitly specifies it as valid escape.
Fixes#2694.
If you do "mpv /bla/", and then branch out into sub-directories using
playlist navigation, and then used quit and watch later, then playing
the same directory did not resume from the previous point. This was
because resuming is based on the path hash, so a path prefix can't be
detected when resuming the parent directory.
Solve this by writing each path prefix when playing directories is
involved. (This includes all parent paths, so interestingly, "mpv /"
would also resume in the above example.)
Something like this was requested multiple times, and I want it too.
This fixes initial decoding of some samples. See #1341.
According to Libav devs, this should be considered a libavcodec bug, but
as it's hard to fix, here we go.
As the removed comment says, not copying this field may cause problems
on older libav* releases. See also commit 5f7de399.
Remove this, as newer FFmpeg releases are available. As of this commit,
use of mpv with FFmpeg 2.5.x and below, or Libav 11 and below is not
recommended, and may lead to random video decoding issues. (Although the
failure cases are apparently somewhat obscure.)
That just makes no sense, but seems to be a somewhat common user error.
The detection is not perfect. It's conceivable that EXT-X-... headers
are used in normal m3u playlists. After all, HLS playlists are by
definition a compatible extension to m3u playlists, as stupid as it
sounds.
Client API users can enable log output with mpv_request_log_messages().
But you can enable only a single log level. This is normally enough, but
the --msg-level option (which controls the terminal log level) provides
more flexibility. Due to internal complexity, it would be hard to
provide the same flexibility for each client API handle. But there's a
simple way to achieve basically the same thing: add an option that sends
log messages to the API handle, which would also be printed to the
terminal as by --msg-level.
The only change is that we don't disable this logic if the terminal is
disabled. Instead we check for this before the message is output, which
in theory can lower performance if messages are being spammed. It could
be handled with some more effort, but the gain would be negligible.
This happens with av_log(NULL, ...) calls. Drop the "?: " fallback
prefix, because it was confusing.
(Of course FFmpeg should not do this at all, but it's a very long way to
making the FFmpeg log callback sane.)
This is slightly "dangerous", because it could overwrite a log callback
another library has set, after we've set our own callback. But it's
probably still slightly better than leaving our own callback, which will
run the fallback code if no mpv instance is set. (Multiple mpv instances
sharing the same global state will safely avoid overwriting each other's
log callback.)
Note that we can't do much better, because the global state in FFmpeg is
obviously insane.
This provides a new method for enabling spdif passthrough. The old
method via --ad (--ad=spdif:ac3 etc.) is deprecated. The deprecated
method will probably stop working at some point.
This also supports PCM fallback. One caveat is that it will lose at
least 1 audio packet in doing so. (I don't care enough to prevent this.)
(This is named after the old S/PDIF connector, because it uses the same
underlying technology as far as the higher level protoco is concerned.
Also, the user should be renamed that passthrough is backwards.)
Right now, the default behavior is to pick the numerically lowest screen
ID that overlaps the window in any way - but this means that mpv will
decide to pick an ICC profile in a pretty arbitrary way even if the
window only overlaps another screen by a single pixel.
The new behavior is to query it based on the center of the window
instead.
This was traditionally needed to silence terminal output from errors
during command line parsing preparsing. Preparsing is done so that
options controlling the terminal and config files are parsed and applied
first, with a second command line parsing pass applying all other
options, _and_ printing error messages for the preparsed ones.
But the hack silencing log output during the preparse pass is actually
not needed anymore, since the terminal is enabled only after preparsing
is finished. update_logging() in main.c does this.
So as long as update_logging() is called before
m_config_preparse_command_line(), this will work.
This duplicates the logic which FFmpeg's libavcodec uses. The effects
are unknown, though it's somewhat clear that a single thread doesn't
necessarily saturate a single CPU.
(Eventually we should just let FFmpeg auto-init the thread count, but
for now I prefer it this way, so e.g. verbose mode will print the
thread count.)
It was possible to make the player play local files by putting rar://
links into remote playlists, and some other potentially unsafe things.
Redo the handling of it. Now the rar-redirector (the thing in
demux_playlist.c) sets disable_safety, which makes the player open any
playlist entries returned. This is fine, because it redirects to the
same file anyway (just with different selection/interpretation of the
contents). On the other hand, rar:// itself is now considered fully
unsafe, which means that it is ignored if found in normal playlists.
The code in main.c calls exit() explicitly, but the code is actually
easier to follow by simply exiting from main() instead. The exit() call
in av_log.c happens only on severely broken builds, so replace it with
abort().
(Shuts up rpmlint warnings.)
Make it accept "," as separator, instead of only ":". Do this by using
the key-value-list parser. Before this, the option was stored as a
string, with the option parser verifying that the option value as
correct. Now it's stored pre-parsed, although the log levels still
require separate verification and parsing-on-use to some degree (which
is why the msg-level option type doesn't go away).
Because the internal type changes, the client API "native" type also
changes. This could be prevented with some more effort, but I don't
think it's worth it - if MPV_FORMAT_STRING is used, it still works the
same, just with a different separator on read accesses.
FFmpeg and Libav have the stupid practice of replacing and deprecating
API symbols on the same day. So with FFmpeg git, this is useless and
will print a compile time warning, while it's required with all stable
releases, and might lead to decoding errors with xvid/avi (apparently).
Add a comment before someone writes a patch and I have to explain it all
over again.
This allows getting the log at all with --no-terminal and without having
to retrieve log messages manually with the client API. The log level is
hardcoded to -v. A higher log level would lead to too much log output
(huge file sizes and latency issues due to waiting on the disk), and
isn't too useful in general anyway. For debugging, the terminal can be
used instead.
And remove all uses of the VFCAP_CSP_SUPPORTED* constants. This is
supposed to reduce conversions if many filters are used (with many
incompatible pixel formats), and also for preferring the VO's natively
supported pixel formats (as opposed to conversion).
This is worthless by now. Not only do the main VOs not use software
conversion, but also the way vf_lavfi and libavfilter work mostly break
the way the old MPlayer mechanism worked. Other important filters like
vf_vapoursynth do not support "proper" format negotation either.
Part of this was already removed with the vf_scale cleanup from today.
While I'm touching every single VO, also fix the query_format argument
(it's not a FourCC anymore).
bstr is a bounded string type, consisting of a pointer and a length
value. If the length is 0, the pointer can be NULL. This is somewhat
logical due to how this abstraction works, but it can leak when
converting to C strings.
talloc_strndup() returns NULL instead of "" in this case, which broke
some other code. Use bstrto0() instead, which is the "proper" function
to convert bstr to char*.
Fixes#1462.
Remove the "all" special-behavior, and instead interpret trailing "*"
characters. --display-tags=all is replaced by --display-tags=* as a
special-case of the new behavior.
See #1404.
Note that the most straight-forward value for matchlen in the normal
case would be INT_MAX, because it should be using the entire string.
I used keylen+1 instead, because glibc seems to handle this case
incorrectly:
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%.*s", INT_MAX, "hello");
The result is empty, instead of just containing the string argument.
This might be a glibc bug; it works with other libcs (even MinGW-w64).
Our own code was introduced when FFmpeg didn't provide this API (or
maybe didn't even have a way to determine the CPU count). But now,
av_cpu_count() is available for all FFmpeg/Libav versions we support,
and there's no reason to have our own code.
libavutil's code seems to be slightly more sophisticated than our's, and
it's possible that the detected CPU count is different on some platforms
after this change.
Do so by using mp_subprocess(). Although this uses completely different
code on Unix too, you shouldn't notice a difference. A less ncie thing
is that this reserves an entire thread while the command is running
(which wastes some memory for stack, at least). But this is probably
still the simplest way, and the fork() trick is apparently not
implementable with posix_subprocess().
This attempts to increase user-friendliness by excluding useless tags.
It should be especially helpful with mp4 files, because the FFmpeg mp4
demuxer adds tons of completely useless information to the metadata.
Fixes#1403.
...because everything is terrible.
strerror() is not documented as having to be thread-safe by POSIX and
C11. (Which is pretty much bullshit, because both mandate threads and
some form of thread-local storage - so there's no excuse why
implementation couldn't implement this in a thread-safe way. Especially
with C11 this is ridiculous, because there is no way to use threads and
convert error numbers to strings at the same time!)
Since we heavily use threads now, we should avoid unsafe functions like
strerror().
strerror_r() is in POSIX, but GNU/glibc deliberately fucks it up and
gives the function different semantics than the POSIX one. It's a bit of
work to convince this piece of shit to expose the POSIX standard
function, and not the messed up GNU one.
strerror_l() is also in POSIX, but only since the 2008 standard, and
thus is not widespread.
The solution is using avlibc (libavutil, by its official name), which
handles the unportable details for us, mostly. We avoid some pain.
The one in msg.c was mistakenly removed with commit e99a37f6.
I didn't actually test the change in ao_sndio.c (but obviously "ap"
shouldn't be static).
