This caused failures when doing single threaded decoding in some cases.
It's unknown what exactly the reasons are for these failures, but
direct rendering is probably worthless anyway.
Disable slices by default as well, just to be sure not to invoke broken
code paths. Multithreading disables these too.
The old behavior can be restored by passing the -dr1 -slices command
line options. (-dr1 is left undocumented intentionally.)
Multithreaded decoding worked fine, because vd_ffmpeg.c automatically
disables direct rendering in this case.
The -ni option does something with the AVI demuxer only.
Also fix misleading error messages when the packet queue overflows (it
suggests using -ni, which in the typical case of playing NI AVI files
will not work, as demux_lavf is used by default).
This controlled the generation of the palette for DVD subs if no palette
was found. The option name and description is confusing, and it was
probably barely useful. Remove the option, and hardcode the behavior to
the option's default value.
The code for this option attempted to emulate the old as-documented
behavior. It wasn't very good at it, and now that the old OSD code has
been removed, it's entirely pointless.
This removes the factor 1.7 with which --subfont-text-scale was
multiplied.
Most of these cased working when the OSD was switched to libass, or
didn't do anything even before that.
Also don't recursively include subreader.h in sub.h.
To ease changing all the VOs to the new OSD rendering, fallbacks,
conversions, support code etc. was left all over the code. Now that
all VOs have been changed, all that code is inactive. Remove it.
Strip down spudec.c. We don't need the old grayscale and scaling stuff
anymore. (Not removing spudec itself yet - I'm not confident that the
libavcodec DVD sub decoder is sufficient, and it would also require
some hacks to get DVD palette and resolution information from libdvdread
to libavcodec.)
The option --spuaa, --spualign, --spugauss were used with the old sub
scaling code, and don't do anything anymore.
Useless. It complicated the code and caused flicker, and was useless
otherwise. The manpage describes this option as "should not normally
be used".
One possibly useful effect from the point of view of the user was that
vsync was disabled. You can do this with the --vsync option, or by
changing X/driver settings directly.
There are a number of options which modify ASS subtitle rendering. Most
of these do things that can interfere with the styling done by subtitle
scripts, resulting in incorrect rendering. Add the --ass-style-override
option to make it easy to disable all overrides. This helps trouble-
shooting, and makes it more practical to use the override features. (You
can simply toggle the ass-style-override property at runtime, should
one of the style override options break subtitle rendering at a certain
point.)
This mainly affects whether most --ass-* options are applied, as well
as --sub-pos. Some things, like explicit style overrides loaded with
--ass-force-style, can't be changed at runtime using the
ass-style-override property.
Replaces the status line with a custom string.
This is probably useful for hacking old slave mode applications into
working again. Even if not, this might be generally useful.
Make more properties use the property-to-option bridge to reduce code
size and to enforce consistency. Some options are renamed to the same
as the properties (the property names are better in all cases).
Do some other minor cleanups. One bigger issue was memory management of
strings: M_PROPERTY_TO_STRING assumed the strings were statically
allocated, and no dynamic allocations could be returned. Fix this in
case the need for such properties arises in the future. Get rid of
m_property_string_ro(), because it's not always clear that the "action"
parameter is M_PROPERTY_SET and the string argument will be used.
This removes the alternative values like "off", "0", "false" etc., and
also the non-English versions of these.
This is done for general consistency. It's better to have a single way
of doing things when multiple ways don't add singificant value.
Also update some choices for consistency.
This was the option parser for the off_t C type. These days, off_t is
always int64_t, so replace all its uses by int64_t and CONF_TYPE_INT64.
Fix the --sstep option. It used CONF_TYPE_INT with an off_t variable,
which will result in invalid memory accesses. Make it use type double
instead, which seems to make more sense for this option.
Rename both the option and property to "osd-level", which fits a bit
better with the general naming scheme. Make it a choice instead of an
integer range. I failed to come up with good names for the various
levels, so leave them as-is.
Remove the useless property handler for the "loop" property too.
Replace --hardframedrop with --framedrop=hard. Rename the framedrop
property from "framedropping" to "framedrop" for the sake of making
command line options have the same name as their corresponding
property. Change the property to accept choice values instead of
numeric values.
Remove unused/forgotten auto_quality variable.
This allows to define which stream is to be used as first output stream.
This is useful because dvdauthor refuses VOB files where the audio
stream is the first stream.
This removes the alternative values like "off", "0", "false" etc., and
also the non-English versions of these.
This is done for general consistency. It's better to have a single way
of doing things when multiple ways don't add singificant value.
Also update some choices for consistency.
--softvol is enabled by default. For most audio outputs, this is a good
thing, as they have either their own (bad) soft volume implementation,
or control the system mixer. With ao_pulse, the situation is a bit
different: it supports per-application volume (i.e. volume control is
not really global). More importantly, ao_pulse uses a rather large audio
buffer, and changing the volume with mplayer's volume filter has a large
delay. With the native ao_pulse volume control, it's instant, because
PulseAudio's audio filtering happens at a later stage in its processing
pipeline (inaccessible for mplayer).
This means native volume control should really be allowed for ao_pulse,
while it's the reverse for other audio outputs. Make --softvol a choice
option, and add a new "auto" choice. This is default and will use PA's
volume control with ao_pulse, and mplayer's volume filter otherwise
(i.e. the old softvol behavior).
When playing a network stream, the cache is automatically enabled. We
don't want the cache to stay enabled when playback ends. (For example,
the next file to be played could be a local file, and even if that is
relatively contrieved, we want to do the right thing.)
Introduced the flag M_OPT_LOCAL to force an option to be always file
local. This allows enabling the old mplayer semantics on a per option
basis.
Previously, Matroska source files other than the initially opened one
were always accessed without caching. Enable cache for extra files
too. A separate cache process/thread is started for each file, which
is less than optimal but probably better than no caching if the user
explicitly enabled cache. This commit only implements caching for
Matroska ordered chapters (not for EDL timeline).
To build the timeline we need to demux the files in the current
directory to look for segments with matching uuid. This first demux is
done with no cache since we don't need to read a lot of the stream. If
the file is recognized as one of the needed sources it's reopened with
cache enabled.
Also move the stream_cache_size global variable to the options struct.

The --vid, --aid, --sid options now accept the values 'off' and 'auto',
instead of having the user deal with the numeric values -2 and -1. The
numeric values are not allowed anymore.
Remove the --audio option. It was probably meant as compensation option
for --no-audio. There are no such options for sub/video, and it was not
documented, so just remove it. The replacement is "--aid=auto".
Also do some updates to the manpage.
The --loop option takes slightly different parameters now. --loop=0
used to mean looping forever. Now it means looping is disabled (this is
more logical: 2 means playing 2 more times, 1 means playing 1 more time,
and 0 should mean playing not again).
Now --loop=inf must be used to enable looping forever.
Extend choice types to allow an optional range of integers as values.
If CONF_RANGE is added to the flags of a m_option_type_choice option,
m_option.min/max specify a range of allowed integer values. This can be
used to remove "special" values from make integer range options. These
special values are unintuitive, and sometimes expose mplayer internals
to the user. The (internal) choice values can be freely mixed with the
specified integer value range. If there are overlaps, the choice values
are preferred for conversion to/from strings.
Also make sure the extension to choice options works with properties.
Add the ability to step choice properties downwards, instead of just
upwards.
This was to make an option without value use the option's default value
(e.g. --term-osd is the same as --term-osd=auto). Make it simpler by
handling this case as an empty choice.
The flag was probably needed when option handling still did ambiguous
argument parsing.
It can't be re-implemented, because this isn't supported by libass. The
-subalign option and the associated sub-align slave property did
nothing. Remove them.
Remove VESA and FBDEV specific code that was forgotten when the
respective VOs were removed. Remove references to old or broken
stuff from example.conf.
Remove the following #defines, which should never change in practice:
CONFIG_FAKE_MONO, OUTBURST, FAST_OSD, FAST_OSD_TABLE
The configure script hardcoded these to particular values in config.h.
They could only be changed by manually editing it. I don't think
anyone would want to.
X11_FULLSCREEN
This once did something, but became meaningless years ago and was now
always set to true if the files using it were compiled at all.

Merged from mplayer2. The OSD defines were already removed in this fork.
The main excuse for removing this is that LIVE555 deprecated the API
the mplayer implementation was using. The old API still seems to be
somewhat supported, but must be explicitly enabled at LIVE555
compilation, so mplayer won't always work on any user installation.
The implementation was also very messy, in C++, and FFmpeg support is
available as alternative.
Remove it completely.
libavformat replaces demux_audio completely. I don't know/care what
vivo (demux_viv) is. libavformat has a Real demuxer; it seems it works
slightly better, with a different set of bugs.
Remove the win32 loader - the win32 emulation layer, as well as the
code for using DirectShow/DMO/VFW codecs. Remove loading of xanim,
QuickTime, and RealMedia codecs.
The win32 emulation layer is based on a very old version of wine.
Apparently, wine code was copied and hacked until it was somehow able
to load a limited collection of binary codecs. It poked around in the
code segment of some known binary codecs to disable unsupported win32
API calls to make them work. Example from module.c:
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e842)[i]=0x90; // make_new_region ?
for (i=0;i<28;i++) RVA(0x19e86d)[i]=0x90; // call__call_CreateCompatibleDC ?
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e898)[i]=0x90; // jmp_to_call_loadbitmap ?
for (i=0;i<9;i++) RVA(0x19e8ac)[i]=0x90; // call__calls_OLE_shit ?
for (i=0;i<106;i++) RVA(0x261b10)[i]=0x90; // disable threads
Just to show how utterly insane this code is. You wouldn't want even
your worst enemy to have to maintain this. In fact, it seems nobody
made major changes to this code ever since it was committed.
Most formats can be decoded by libavcodecs these days, and the loader
couldn't be used on 64 bit platforms anyway. The same is (probably)
true for the other binary codecs.
General note about how support for win32 codecs could be added back:
It's not possible to replace the win32 loader code by using wine as
library, because modern wine can not be linked with native Linux
programs for certain reasons. It would be possible to to move DirectShow
video decoding into a separate process linked with wine, like the
CoreAVC-for-Linux patches do. There is also the mplayer-ww fork, which
uses the dshownative library to use DirectShow codecs on Windows.
Rename -slave to -slave-broken to prevent slave mode applications from
working. Do this to prevent horrible user experiences, in case someone
should attempt to try this version of mplayer with smplayer and others.
This also makes it clear that we don't intend to keep slave mode
compatibility, because the slave mode protocol is horrible and bad.
See the changes in options.rst for further reasons and comments.
Doesn't make sense because we broke/are going to break compatibility
with everything anyway.
Remove mechanism for warning the user against disabled options.
Remove colorspace alternative option values.
Options parsing used to be ambiguous, as in the splitting into option
and values pairs was ambiguous. Example:
-option -something
It wasn't clear whether -option actually takes an argument or not. The
string "-something" could either be a separate option, or an argument
to "-option". The code had to call the option specific parser function
to resolve this.
This made everything complicated and didn't even have a real use. There
was only one case where this was actually used: string lists
(m_option_type_string_list) and options based on it. That is because
this option type actually turns a single option into a proxy for several
real arguments, e.g. "vf*" can handle "-vf-add" and "-vf-clr". Options
suffixed with "-clr" are the only options of this group which take no
arguments.
This is ambiguous only with the "old syntax" (as shown above). The "new"
option syntax always puts option name and value into same argument.
(E.g. "--option=--something" or "--option" "--something".)
Simplify the code by making it statically known whether an option takes
a parameter or not with the flag M_OPT_TYPE_OLD_SYNTAX_NO_PARAM. If it's
set, the option parser assumes the option takes no argument.
The only real ambiguity left, string list options that end on "-clr",
are special cased in the parser.
Remove some duplication of the logic in the command line parser by
moving all argument splitting logic into split_opt(). (It's arguable
whether that can be considered code duplication, but now the code is a
bit simpler anyway. This might be subjective.)
Remove the "ambiguous" parameter from all option parsing related code.
Make m_config unaware of the pre-parsing concept.
Make most CONF_NOCFG options also CONF_GLOBAL (except those explicitly
usable as per-file options.)
This was already treated like CONF_GLOBAL.
Profiles can actually be file-local, as long as the profile sets file
local options only. Allow them to do so.
Remove variable that is only assigned but never used.

Teletext requires special OSD support. Because I can't even test
teletext, I can't restore support for it. Since teletext can be
considered ancient and obscure, and since it doesn't make sense to keep
the remaining teletext code without being able to use it, I'm removing
it.
