Since meson has its own unit testing system, let's rework mpv's tests so
they integrate nicely with this. To prepare for this, start off by
dropping the unittest option. Of course, this means that tests will no
longer be supported in the waf build at all but it will be dropped
anyway. Note that the tests option is preserved for the meson build. We
will still make use of this in the future commits.
mpv's window resizing logic always automatically resized the window
whenever the video resolution changed (i.e. advancing forward in a
playlist). This simply introduces the option to make this behavior
configurable. Every windowing backend would need to implement this
behavior in their code since a reconfigure event must always be a
resize. The params of the frame changed so you either have to resize the
window to the new size of the params or make the params the same size as
the window. This commit implements it for wayland, win32, and x11.
These options make it possible to specify the directory that will be
passed to ass_set_fonts_dir(), akin to VLC's `--ssa-fontsdir` and
FFmpeg's `fontsdir`.
Fixes#8338
This returns the value of the target OS that mpv was built on as
reported by the build system. It is quite conceivable that script
writers and API users would need to make OS-dependent choices in some
cases. Such people end up writing boilerplate/hacks to guess what OS
they are on. Assuming you trust the build system (if you don't, we're in
really deep trouble), then mpv actually knows exactly what OS it was
built on. Simply take this information at configuration time, make it a
define, and let mp_property_platform return the value.
Note that mpv has two build systems (waf and meson), so the names of the
detected OSes may not be exactly the same. Since meson is the newer
build system, the value of this property follows meson's naming
conventions*. In the waf build, there is a small function to map known
naming deviations to match meson (i.e. changing "win32" to "windows").
waf's documentation is a nightmare to follow, but it seems to simply
take the output of sys.platform in python and strip away any trailing
numbers if they exist (exception being win32 and os2)*.

The playlist title only got set when it was specified in the
playlist file.
If there is a title after opening a file, that should also be reflected
in the playlist.

PipeWire supports a global volume control for streams that works on top
of the per-channel volumes.
As mpv only supports a single volume with ao-volume it can make sense to
use the single global volume from PipeWire for it.
This allows the user to also specify per-channel volumes and not have
mpv trample over them.
This mode is not the default as pulseaudio does not support this
global volume control and all tooling controlling PipeWire via
pipewire-pulse (like pavucontrol) will not be able to see this channel.
This option is a bit obscure, but some people do use it and it can be
useful. The actual code that implements this is very simple, so there's
really no need to have a scary note in the docs about it possibly
changing or being removed.
With significant improvements to the color tagging support in various
screenshot formats, e.g. cICP in FFmpeg, and JPEG XL's generally robust
color support, it's safe to default this to yes.
Previously, this defaulted to yes and configure-bounds from the
compositor would always apply. In the case where the user explicitly set
autofit or geometry, this could be confusing because configure-bounds
would take precedence over it. Instead, let's add an auto choice and
make that the default. If we detect that the option is on auto and that
there is autofit/geometry being set, then ignore the event. This should
be more intuitive since someone who bothers to explicitly set mpv's
geometry would naturally expect that geometry to actually apply.

burden.
--vd-lavc-dr defaulted to "yes", which caused issues on certain
hardware. Instead of disabling it, add a new "auto" value and
make it the default.
The "auto" choice will enable DR only when we can request host-cached

The situation here is that HWND is always a 32-bit value but the
win32 API also accepts sign-extended values as valid. The trouble
starts when the numeric value is negative, as mpv ignores those.
Apparently this only happens after a while (related to uptime
or number of handles created), which meant this problem was rare.
addresses #10189
The watch-later mechanism has always unconditionally wrote start to
files to save the playback position. When this was later expanded to
watch-later-options, this logic was kept in place. But we don't actually
have to unconditionally write this and can allow users to remove the
option from the list if they want to. The start value still requires
some special handling; it should always be written if possible
regardless of the value changing. However, we can just place it within
the default set of options for watch-later-options so it can be removed
like any other.
So far there was no way to sync video to display and have audio sync to
video without changes in pitch.
With this option the audio does not get resampled (pitch change) and
instead the corrected audio speed is applied to audio filters.
Buffering ahead nonstop into the cache results in nonstop disk or network
activity to read stream data from wherever it may originate. Currently,
there's no way to configure the demuxer to back off once it's buffered
ahead enough data, since the cache limit will be perpetually not-reached as
a stream continues to play, until the entire stream is eventually buffered.
On a laptop with an i9-12900H with decoding performed by the iGPU,
watching a locally-saved 1080p video which hasn't been buffered into the
page cache consumes approximately 15 W even with caching enabled. When
configuring a hysteresis to make the demuxer back off, power consumption
drops to 9 W when watching the same video, resulting in a whopping 6 W of
power savings.
To make it possible to attain significant power savings via caching, add
a --demuxer-hysteresis-secs option to configure a hysteresis to make the
demuxer back off until there's only the configured number of seconds
remaining in the cache from the current playback position.
This feature is disabled by default.

This makes no attempt at querying terminal features or handling
terminal errors, as it would require mpv to pass the response codes
from the terminal to the vo instead of interpreting them as
keystrokes made by the user and acting very unpredictably.
Tested with kitty and konsole.
Fixes#9605
currently only supported on x11.
one practical use-case of this is wanting to embed something (such as
dmenu) into the mpv window to use as a menu/selection. there might be
other use-cases as well (e.g doing some shenanigans with `xdotool` or
whatnot).
it's currently possible to:
* listen for 'current-window-scale' change (to check if the
window has been created or not)
* call an external tool like `xdo` or `xdotool` and grab the xid
from mpv's pid.
however it adds unnecessary dependency on external tools when mpv is
fully capable of easily providing this information.

The legacy DRM API adds some complexity to the DRM code. There
are only 4 drivers that do not support the DRM Atomic API:
1. radeon (early GCN amd cards)
2. gma500 (ancient intel GPUs)
3. ast (ASPEED SoCs)
4. nouveau
Going forward, new DRM drivers will be guaranteed to support the atomic
API so this is a safe removal.
The content-type protocol allows mpv to send compositor a hint about the
type of content being displayed on its surface so it could potentially
make some sort of optimization. Fundamentally, this is pretty simple but
since this requires a very new wayland-protocols version (1.27), we have
to mess with the build to add a new define and add a bunch of if's in
here. The protocol itself exposes 4 different types of content: none,
photo, video, and game.
To do that, let's add a new option (wayland-content-type) that lets
users control what hint to send to the compossitor. Since the previous
commit adds a VOCTRL that notifies us about the content being displayed,
we can also add an auto value to this option. As you'd expect, the
compositor hint would be set to photo if mpv's core detects an image,
video for other things, and it is set to none for the special case of
forcing a window when there is not a video track. For completion's sake,
game is also allowed as a value for this option, but in practice there
shouldn't be a reason to use that.
mpv has an internal optimization on a couple of platforms where it will
not render any frames if the window is minimized or hidden. There's at
least once possible use case for wanting to force a render anyway
(screensharing with pipeware) so let's just add a simple switch for
this that always forces mpv to render. Closes#10846.
This is a very simple but easy way of doing it. Ideally, it would be
nice if we could also add some sort of introspection about shader
parameters at runtime, ideally exposing the entire list of parameters as
a custom property dict. But that is a lot of effort for dubious gain.
It's worth noting that, as currently implemented, re-setting
`glsl-shader-opts` to a new value doesn't reset back previously mutated
values to their defaults.
Deduplicate history like the fish shell. So for example
entering "cmd 1" then "cmd 2" then "cmd 3" then "cmd 1"
would result in a history of
[cmd 2][cmd 3][cmd 1]
instead of
[cmd 1][cmd 2][cmd 3][cmd 1]
Adds a function `history_add` to replace directly adding to history.
Adds an option `history_dedup` to activate the deduplication.
Defaults to on.
vo_dmabuf_wayland has its own ra and context so it can handle all the
different hwdec correctly. Unfortunately, this API was pretty clearly
designed with vo_gpu/vo_gpu_next in mind and has a lot of concepts that
don't make sense for vo_dmabuf_wayland. We still want to bolt on a
ra_ctx, but instead let's rework the ra_ctx logic a little bit. First,
this introduces a hidden bool within the ra_ctx_fns that is used to hide
the wldmabuf context from users as an option (unlike the other usual
contexts). We also want to make sure that hidden contexts wouldn't be
autoprobed in the usual ra_ctx_create, so we be sure to skip those in
that function. Additionally, let's create a new ra_ctx_create_by_name
function which does exactly what says. It specifically selects a context
based on a passed string. This function has no probing or option logic
is simplified just for what vo_dmabuf_wayland needs. The api/context
validations functions are modified just a little bit to make sure hidden
contexts are skipped and the documentation is updated to remove this
entries. Fixes#10793.
Wayland VO that can display images from either vaapi or drm hwdec
The PR adds the following changes:
1. a context_wldmabuf context with no gl dependencies
2. no-op ra_wldmabuf and dmabuf_interop_wldmabuf objects
no-op because there is no need to map/unmap the drmprime buffer,
and there is no need to manage any textures.
Tested on both x86_64 and rk3399 AArch64
Pushing E (aka Shift+e) cycles through Editions for containers
that support editions, such as Matroska, although this feature was not
documented before this commit.
We've had some annoying names for interops, which we can't simply
rename because that would break config files and command lines. So we
need to put a little more effort in and add a concept of legacy names
that allow us to continue loading them, but with a warning.
The two I'm renaming here are:
* vaapi-egl -> vaapi (vaapi works with Vulkan too)
* drmprime-drm -> drmprime-overlay (actually describes what it does)
* cuda-nvdec -> cuda (cuda interop is not nvdec specific)
This has had no effect since libplacebo v4.192.0, and was deprecated
upstream a year ago. No deprecation period in mpv is justified by this
being a debug / work-around option.
Removed the outdated information about environmental brightness
with respect to --gamma-factor, and mention that the option is
deprecated and subject to future removal. Also deprecated the
--gamma-auto option as it relies on the same outdated way of doing
things.
In wayland-protocols 1.25, xdg-shell got a version bump which added the
configure_bounds event. The compositor can send this to clients to
indicate that they should not resize past a certain size. For mpv, we'll
choose to only listen to this on reconfig events (i.e. when the window
first appears and if the video resolution changes later in the
playlist). However, this behavior is still exposed as a user option
(default on) because it will neccesarily conflict with a user setting a
specific geometry size and/or window scale. Presumably, if someone is
setting a really large size that goes beyond the bounds of their
monitor, they actually want it like that. The wayland-protocols version
is newer-ish, but we can get around having to poke the build system by
just using a define that exists in the generated xdg-shell header.
In the confusing landscape of hardware video decoding APIs, we have had
a long standing support gap for the v4l2 based APIs implemented for the
various SoCs from Rockship, Amlogic, Allwinner, etc. While VAAPI is the
defacto default for desktop GPUs, the developers who work on these SoCs
(who are not the vendors!) have preferred to implement kernel APIs
rather than maintain a userspace driver as VAAPI would require.
While there are two v4l2 APIs (m2m and requests), and multiple forks of
ffmpeg where support for those APIs languishes without reaching
upstream, we can at least say that these APIs export frames as DRMPrime
dmabufs, and that they use the ffmpeg drm hwcontext.
With those two constants, it is possible for us to write a
hwdec-interop without worrying about the mess underneath - for the most
part.
Accordingly, this change implements a hwdec-interop for any decoder
that produces frames as DRMPrime dmabufs. The bulk of the heavy
lifting is done by the dmabuf interop code we already had from
supporting vaapi, and which I refactored for reusability in a previous
set of changes.
When we combine that with the fact that we can't probe for supported
formats, the new code in this change is pretty simple.
This change also includes the hwcontext_fns that are required for us to
be able to configure the hwcontext used by `hwdec=drm-copy`. This is
technically unrelated, but it seemed a good time to fill this gap.
From a testing perspective, I have directly tested on a RockPRO64,
while others have tested with different flavours of Rockchip and on
Amlogic, providing m2m coverage.
I have some other SoCs that I need to spin up to test with, but I don't
expect big surprises, and when we inevitably need to account for new
special cases down the line, we can do so - we won't be able to support
every possible configuration blindly.
Whether or not the GNOME project has a tendency to make life
difficult for anyone outside their ecosystem, the user manual is
no place for childish rants such as this.
Keep it to what is relevant for users.
Generally, the hard-coded sizes used for the OSC elements are
comfortable regardless of the font used, but the timecode fields have
relatively many characters, and so are affected to a greater degree by
fonts with a wider or narrower average character width than expected.
This allow users to adjust the space reserved for the timecode fields to
compensate.
Previously if the raw command_native_async returned an error then the
callback function was run directly. This meant that script writers
potentially had to account for both synchronous and asynchronous logic
in the callback, which can happen even with seemingly 'safe' commands
if the mpv event queue is full.
This was at odds with the Javascript implementation of
the function, which always runs the callback asynchronously.
Now the mp.add_timeout function is used to run the callback
asynchronously on error, replicating the Javascript implementation.
This provides consistency for developers in how the callback is handled
in Lua, and increases consistency between the Lua and Javascript APIs.
With the recent addition of the libxpresent, it should improve frame
timings for most users. However, there were known cases of bad behavior
(Nvidia) which lead to a construction of a whitelist instead of just
enabling this all the time. Since there's no way to predict whatever
combination of hardware/drivers/etc. may work correctly, just give users
an option to switch the usage of xorg's presentation statistics on/off.
The default value, auto, works like before (basically, Mesa drivers and
no Nvidia are allowed), but now one can force it on/off if needed.
The `absolute` value was incorrectly labelled as the default instead of
the value named `default`, which was somewhat confusing. When the newer
default option was added in 679e410 it seems like wm4 forgot to remove
the label in the manual on the previous default.
This is mainly for other user scripts that may conflict with the osc
logo in some way. Although it is possible to listen for
shared-script-properties, this has many edge cases that could easily pop
up. A user could want other OSC things to happen at the same time (say
osc-message). They just don't want the logo. The idlescreen option
disables all idlescreen related things (including the santa hat) if it
is set to "no". A new script message (osc-idlescreen) is also added so
users can easily toggle the value (passing "cycle" or just explictly
setting "yes" or "no"). Some more discussion on this is found in the
below github issues.

This driver makes use of dmabuffer and viewporter interfaces
to enable efficient display of vaapi surfaces, avoiding
any unnecessary colour space conversion, and avoiding scaling

Add Jpeg XL as a possible output format for screenshots, which

- Say built-in which is more common than builtin
- Move "By default" because only the key to open the console is
customizable, and fix the punctuation and case of the sentence
- ` opens the console, not ´
- Remove the sentences that explains which user script console.lua is
based on since it's no longer relevant now that the console has been
part of mpv for over 2 years.
Now that a separate --cover-art-whitelist option exists, files like
cover.jpg are loaded even without setting --cover-art-auto to fuzzy, so
only load files that have exactly the media filename by default, since
fuzzy loading is probably more likely to load unwanted images than to
load cover art that the user intended to display, especially if you play
audio files with a short filename like a.mp3.
This allows more fine grained control over which cover art to load. With
--cover-art-auto=exact and --cover-art-whitelist=yes, you can now load
cover art with the exact media filename and the whitelisted filenames,
but not cover art that contains the media filename
(--cover-art-auto=fuzzy).
This adds a section to the documentation to explain how resuming
playback works, and in particular it explains how it affects which
playlist entry mpv starts playing from, since this feature was only
implied in the --playlist-start documentation.
It also groups the documentation of the watch later options together to
make them easier to find.
Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), aka Freesync or Adaptive Sync can be used
with DRM by setting the VRR_ENABLED property on a crtc if the
connector reports that it is VRR_CAPABLE. This is a useful feature
for us as it is common to play 24/25/50 fps content on displays that
are nominally locked to 60Hz. VRR can allow this content to play at
native framerates.
This is a simple change as we just need to check the capability
and set the enabled property if requested by the user. I've defaulted
it to disabled for now, but it might make sense to default to auto
in the long term.
The documentation's current discussion of hwdec usage is out of date,
and unnecessarily pessemistic when applied to modern hardware. The
reality is that modern APIs on modern hardware produce reasonable
results and there's no need to pretend otherwise. The current language
that tries to drive people away from using hwdecs at all leads to them
making bad choices when they do try to use it.
Let's also make it clearer that users should use vo=gpu with hwdecs
rather than vo=vaapi or vo=vdpau. Even the existing admonitions have
proven insufficient, so let's strengthen that language.
There are two major ways of going about this:
1. Expose the native ra_gl/ra_pl/ra_d3d11 objects to the pre-existing
hwdec mappers, and then add code in vo_gpu_next to rewrap those
ra_tex objects into pl_tex.
2. Wrap the underlying pl_opengl/pl_d3d11 into a ra_pl object and expose
it to the hwdec mappers, then directly use the resulting pl_tex.
I ultimately opted for approach 1 because it enables compatibility with
more hardware decoders, specifically including ones that use native
OpenGL calls currently. The second approach only really works with
cuda_vk and vaapi_pl.
I was initially hesitant to link to an external article from the manpage
but a lot of other places in the man page already do something like
this, and it really makes more sense to have this as a wiki article
rather than trying to keep the manpage up-to-date by hand, since this
evolves quickly and the two are expected to converge over time.
The stop-screensaver option is currently limited to a simple yes/no
option. While the no option does always disable mpv trying to stop the
screensaver, yes does not mean the screensaver is always stopped. The
screensaver will be enabled again depending on certain conditions (like
if the player is paused). Simply introduce a new value for this option,
always, which does exactly what the name implies: the screensaver will
always be disabled.
- Make it clearer that playback_only affects subprocess' behavior when
the playback of the current playlist entry terminates, rather than
when mpv quits.
- Explain when status is positive and when it is negative.
- Replace "exited gracefully" in status' and error_string's
documentation with "terminated normally" so it can't be misinterpreted
as exiting successfully.
- Reword the playback_only warning
We have a few examples with vf=rotate=90, but libavfilter's rotate
accepts radians - not degrees, so a value of 90 is valid but misleading
because it's not 90 degrees.
Change the value of 90 at those examples.
Also replace "vf-add=hflip" with "vf add hflip", since that example
lists commands, not options, to run.
When utils.get_user_path was added, the expand-path command didn't
exist. Now it does, so remove the C code, make it a trivial wrapper.
Keep this function for backward compat to not break scripts, but
technically it's not required anymore.
Currently the profile-restore field is intentionally omitted if it
holds the default value (i.e. no values are stored for the profile,
and trying to restore would only warn).
See m_config_get_profiles at command.c .

- code refactoring;
- fix buffers size calculations;
- buffer set to auto;

Previously, the sub-visibility option changed the visibility of all
subtitles including secondary ones. This meant that it was not possible
to only display secondary subtitles while hiding the primary ones. This
modifies the sub-visibility option so that it only affects primary
subtitles which allows only secondary subtitles to be displayed.
This reverts commit 04f0b0abe4.
It's not a good idea to unify the names only for visibility, while
keeping secondary-* for everything else.
This needs a bit more thought before we allow secondary sub to be
visible on its own.
Adds --sub-visibility choices 'primary-only' for only displaying the
primary subtitle track, and 'secondary-only' for only displaying
secondary subtitle track.
Removes --secondary-sub-visibility and displays a message telling the
user to use --sub-visibility=yes/primary-only instead.
These changes make it so that the default 'sub-visibility' bind 'v'
cycles through all the 'sub-visibility' choices, 'no', 'yes',
'primary-only', and 'secondary-only'.
The AO provides a way for mpv to directly submit audio to the PipeWire
audio server.
Doing this directly instead of going through the various compatibility
layers provided by PipeWire has the following advantages:
* It reduces complexity of going through the compatibility layers
* It allows a richer integration between mpv and PipeWire
(for example for metadata)
* Some users report issues with the compatibility layers that to not
occur with the native AO
For now the AO is ordered after all the other relevant AOs, so it will
most probably not be picked up by default.
This is for the following reasons:
* Currently it is not possible to detect if the PipeWire daemon that mpv
connects to is actually driving the system audio.
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/1835)
* It gives the AO time to stabilize before it is used by everyone.

Useful to strip dolbyvision from the output, in cases where the user
does not want it applied. Doing this as a video filter gives users the
abiilty to easily toggle this stripping at runtime in a way that
properly propagates to any (potentially stateful) VO.
It also thematically fits the rest of the options in vf_format, which
are similarly concerned with modifying the video image parameters.
This merges the old desaturation control options into a single
enumeration, with the goal of both simplifying how these options work
and also making this list more extensible (including, notably, new
options only supported by vo_gpu_next).
For the hybrid option, I decided to port the (slightly tweaked) values
from libplacebo's pre-refactor defaults, rather than the old values we
had in mpv, to more visually match the look of the vo_gpu_next hybrid.
Merge --gamut-clipping and --gamut-warning into a single option,
--gamut-mapping-mode, better corresponding to the new vo_gpu_next APIs
and allowing us to easily extend this option as new modes are added in
the future.
Not all deprecated symbols were removed. Only three events were removed for now
since these are not used internally.
This bumps the library version to 2.0.
Previously OSD was always displayed on {ch,pl}_{next,prev} left-click,
and seekbar-hover-chapter was always enabled and with fixed format.
Now it can be controlled with:
- chapters_osd, playlist_osd: yes/no (only affects left-click).
- chapter_fmt: lua string.format template, or "no" to disable.
Fixes#4675
The audio rewrite in d27ad96542 originally
broke this ao. However, 0ac724f002 fixed
and the documentation was never updated to reflect that. OpenAL has
worked fine for a while not. Just remove this sentence.
Completely untested, since Linux still can't into HDR in 2021. Somebody
please make sure it works.
Technically covers #8219, since gpu-context=drm can be combined with
vo=gpu-next.
Looking at this again I'm not sure it does anything useful at all. The
man page entry is also wrong: `bicubic` is not affected, only
`bicubic_fast`, and those filters are not configurable anyways.
So this would only ever be a debugging option, and I don't see a
pressing need for it.
No interface-change.rst update because it only just got added anyways.
As discussed in #8799, this will eventually replace vo_gpu. However, it
is not yet complete. Currently missing:
- OpenGL contexts
- hardware decoding
- blend-subtitles=video
- VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT
However, it's usable enough to cover most use cases, and as such is
enough to start getting in some crucial testing.
mpv doesn't have other dot files in its config dir, and it also
shouldn't be "invisible".
The new name ~~/init.js now replaces ~~/.init.js
While mpv usually deprecates things before outright removing them,
in this case the old (dot) name is replaced without deprecation:
- It's a bad idea to execute hidden scripts, even if at a config dir,
and we don't want to do that for the next release cycle too.
- We warn if the old (dot) name exists and the new name doesn't,
which should be reasonably visible for affected users.
- It's likely niche enough to not cause too much pain.
If for some reason both names are needed, e.g. when using also an old
mpv versions, then the old name could be symlinked to the new one, or
simply have one line: `require("~~/init")` to load the new name, while
a new mpv version will load (only) the new name without warning.
As the documentation of the toggle says - the implementation can (and
will actually if they follow the GLX/EGL spec) return context version
greater than the one requested.
This happens with all Mesa drivers that I've tested as well as the
Nvidia binary drivers.
This toggle seems like a workaround for buggy drivers, yet it's lacking
context about the vendor and version.
Remove it for now - I'll be happy to reinstate it (partially or in full)
as we get concrete details.
This allows us to simplify ra_gl_ctx_test_version() making the whole
context creation business easier to follow by mere mortals.

This behavior is more convenient and allows profile conditions like:
[video]
profile-cond=get('current-tracks/video/image') == false
[image]
profile-cond=get('current-tracks/video/image')
Otherwise, these profiles have to be manually applied and restored in a
script.
The note about discouraging the use of current-tracks in scripts is
removed, because it makes people avoid using this convenient property.
It was added in 720bcd79d0 without leaving an explanation of why you
shouldn't use it, and the only reason seems to be that it doesn't work
with lavfi-complex, but this commit changes that.
This exposes whether a video track is detected as an image, which is
useful for profile conditions, property expansion and lavfi-complex.
The lavf demuxer sets image to true when the existing check detects an
image.
When the lavf demuxer fails, the mf one guesses if the file is an image
by its extension, so sh->image is set to true when the mf demuxer
succeds and there's only one file.
The mkv demuxer just sets image to true for any attached picture.
The timeline demuxer just copies the value of image from source to
destination. This sets image to true for attached pictures, standalone
images and images added with !new_stream in EDL playlists, but it is
imperfect since you could concatenate multiple images in an EDL playlist
(which should be done with the mf demuxer anyway). This is good enough
anyway since the comment of the modified function already says it is
"Imperfect and arbitrary".
The custom init script should be considered a configuration file, and
as such it should be ignored when the user wants vanilla mpv - and now
it is ignored with --no-config.
This is similar to [no-]input-default-bindings, but affects only
builtin bindings (while input-default-bindings affects anything which
config files can override, like scripting mp.add_key_binding).
Arguably, this is what input-default-binding should have always done,
however, it does not.
The reason we add a new option rather than repurpose/modify the
existing option is that it behaves differently enough to raise
concerns that it will break some use cases for existing users:
- The new option is only applied once on startup, while
input-default-bindings can be modified effectively at runtime.
- They affects different sets of bindings, and it's possible that
the set of input-default-bindings is useful enough to keep.
Implementation-wise, both options are trivial, so keeping one or the
other or both doesn't affect code complexity.
It could be argued that it would be useful to make the new option
also effective for runtime changes, however, this opens a can of
worms of how the bindings are stored beyond the initial setup.
TL;DR: it's impossible to differentiate correctly at runtime between
builtin bindings, and those added with mp.add_key_bindings.
The gist is that technically mpv needs/uses two binding "classes":
- weak/builtin bindings - lower priority than config files.
- "user" bindings - config files and "forced" runtime bindings.
input-default-bindings affects the first class trivially, but
input-builtin-bindings would not be able split this class further
at runtime without meaningful changes to a lot of delicate code.
So a new option it is. It should be useful to some libmpv clients
(players) which want to disable mpv's builtin bindings without
breaking mp.add_key_bindings for scripts.
Fixes#8809
(again. the previous fix 8edfe70b only improved the docs, while
now we're actually making the requested behavior possible)
Unfortunately, this functionality in large part based on a struct
member that was made private in FFmpeg/FFmpeg@7489f63281
in May. Unfortunately, this was not noticed during review.
This reverts commit 0862664ac9.
This exposes whether a video track is detected as an image. This is
useful for profile conditions, property expansion and lavfi-complex, and
is more accurate than any detection even Lua scripts can perform, since
they can't differentiate between images and videos without container-fps
and audio and with duration 1 (which is the duration set by the mf
demuxer with the default --mf-fps=1).
The lavf demuxer image check is moved to where the number of frames is
available for comparison, and is modified to check the number of frames
and duration instead of the video codec. This doesn't misdetect videos
in a codec commonly used for images (e.g. mjpeg) as images, and can
detect images in a codec commonly used for videos (e.g. 1-frame gifs).
pix files are also now detected as images, while before they weren't
since the condition was checking if the AVInputFormat name ends with
_pipe, and alias_pix doesn't.
Both nb_frames and codec_info_nb_frames are checked because nb_frames is
0 for some video codecs (hevc, av1, vc1, mpeg1video, vp9 if forcing
--demuxer=lavf), and codec_info_nb_frames is 1 for others (mpeg, mpeg4,
wmv3).
The duration is checked as well because for some uncommon codecs and
containers found in FFMpeg's FATE suite, libavformat returns nb_frames =
0 and codec_info_nb_frames = 1. For some of them it even returns
duration = 0, so they are blacklisted in order to never be considered
images.
The extra codecs that would have to be blacklisted without checking the
duration are AV_CODEC_ID_4XM, AV_CODEC_ID_BINKVIDEO,
AV_CODEC_ID_DSICINVIDEO, AV_CODEC_ID_ESCAPE130, AV_CODEC_ID_MMVIDEO,
AV_CODEC_ID_NUV, AV_CODEC_ID_RL2, AV_CODEC_ID_SMACKVIDEO and
AV_CODEC_ID_XAN_WC3, while the containers are film-cpk, ivf and ogg.
The lower limit for duration is 10 because that's the duration of
1-frame gifs.
Streams with codec_info_nb_frames 0 are not considered images because
vp9 and av1 have nb_frames = 0 and codec_info_nb_frames = 0, and we
can't rely on just the duration to detect them because they could be
livestreams without an initial duration, and actually even if we could
for these codecs libavformat returns huge negative durations like
-9223372036854775808.
Some more images in the FATE suite that are really frames cut from a
video in an uncommon codec and container, like cine/bayer_gbrg8.cine,
could be detected by allowing codec_info_nb_frames = 0, but then any
present and future video codec with nb_frames = 0 and
codec_info_nb_frames = 0 would need to be added to the blacklist. Some
even have duration > 10, so to detect these images the duration check
would have to be removed, and all the previously mentioned extra codecs
and containers would have to be added added to the blacklists, which
means that images that use them (if they exist anywhere) will never be
detected. These FATE images aren't detected as such by mediainfo either
anyway, nor can a Lua script reliably detect them as images since they
have container-fps and duration > 0 and != 1, and you probably will
never see files like them anywhere else.
For attached pictures the lavf demuxer always set image to true, which
is necessary because they have duration > 10. There is a minor change in
behavior for which audio with attached pictures now has mf-fps as
container-fps instead of unavailable, but this makes it consistent with
external cover art, which was already being assigned mf-fps.
When the lavf demuxer fails, the mf one guesses if the file is an image
by its extension, so sh->image is set to true when the mf demuxer
succeds and there's only one file.
Even if you add a video's file type to --mf-type and open it with the mf
protocol, only the first frame is used, so setting image to true is
still accurate.
When converting an image to the extensions listed in demux/demux_mf.c,
tga and pam files are currently the only ones detected by the mf demuxer
rather than lavf. Actually they are detected with the image2 format, but
it is blacklisted; see d0fee0ac33.
The mkv demuxer just sets image to true for any attached picture.
The timeline demuxer just copies the value of image from source to
destination. This sets image to true for attached pictures, standalone
images and images added with !new_stream in EDL playlists, but it is
imperfect since you could concatenate multiple images in an EDL playlist
(which should be done with the mf demuxer anyway). This is good enough
anyway since the comment of the modified function already says it is
"Imperfect and arbitrary".
Because youtube-dl is inactive and the yt-dlp fork is becoming more
popular, make mpv use yt-dlp without any extra configuration.
yt-dlp is ordered before youtube-dl because it's more obscure, so users
who have yt-dlp installed are more likely to want to use it rather than
youtube-dl.
Fixes#9208.
The "cycle" command _declaration_ enables repeatability by default,
however, the command handler applies additional logic to augment it,
based on the property which is being cycled - using some guesswork.
Specifically, properties with discrete values are not repeatable
(like sub or osd-level), while continuous properties are repeatable
(like volume).
Previously, the "repeatable" prefix could not override this additional
logic.
This commit changes the behavior so that the logic affects only the
default repeatability (still based on the property like before),
however, the "repeatable" prefix is now allowed to override it.
Previously, a list of commands was always considered repeatable.
This behavior was added at 6710527a (and moved around since then),
in order to fix#807 (impossible to make a repeatable list).
The problem was that a list doesn't have the normal repeatability
flags and so it was never repeatable, so it was hardcoded to be
repeatable instead. Presumably it was deemed good enough.
However, this made it impossible to have a non-repeatable list.
This commit changes the behavior so that a list repeatability is
that of the first command at the list.
This way, any list can be made either repeatable or non-repeatable
using the following idiom (e.g. at input.conf), based on the fact
that the "ignore" command is not repeatable by default:
x ignore; cmd1...; cmd2... # non-repeatable
y repeatable ignore; cmd1...; cmd2... # repeatable

- Escape \b in show-text "This is ${osd-ass-cc/0}{\b1}bold text".
- Link the Flat command syntax section because it's no longer true that

The previous wording gave the false impression that there was no media
key support for OSes besides Windows and macOS. This is untrue, the
option may only exist on those two platforms but it simply means that
media keys will always be enabled on other OSes as long as they are
supported.
There's currently some touch related code in mpv wayland, but clearly
nobody actually uses because it's a broken mess. Initially an attempt to
distinguish between two finger touches and one finger touch was made,
but there's not a good way to make this work. For whatever reason,
initiating either xdg_toplevel_resize or xdg_toplevel_move blocks any
other touch events from occurring (at least in plasma). Trying to call
these functions anywhere else is not really useful since the serial will
be invalid outside of the touch down events (well it would work in the
touch up event but that's just silly).
Anyways, let's just make this work sanely. Eliminate the touch entries
variable completely because it's pointless. Only one finger event is
ever considered at a time. Touches besides the initial one are all
ignored. If a user touches and drags within the touch edge radius, then
a resize event occurs. If the user touches and drags elsewhere on the
window, a move event occurs. A single tap displays the osc (which is
clickable if you tap again). A double tap toggles fullscreen.
Additionally, the default touch edge radius of 64 pixels is way too big
(at least I think so). Cut this in half to 32 which feels a lot better
(on a pinephone using plasma mobile anyway).
The window-scale property mirrors the respective option (not the
effective scale derived from the current window size), and as such
setting its value to the same value it had before has no effect.
Specifically - the window will not resize.
This is consistent as far as property-option bridge behavior goes,
but we do end up with an issue that we can't set an arbitrary scale
and expect the window to always resize accordingly.
We do also have a current-window-scale property which does reflect
the actual window size, however, it's been read-only till now.
This commit makes current-window-scale RW so that it's now always
possible to set an arbitrary scale and expect the window to resize
accordingly (without affecting window-scale - like manual resize).
Also, mention window-scale no-effect-if-not-changed at the docs.
Based on code by @Dudemanguy from commit 873ae0d, with same effect.
This reverts commit 873ae0de2a.
The next commit will restore this functionality, with the
following differences from the reverted commit:
- Smaller and simpler code change.
- On bad scale: use "Invalid value" (compared to "no such property").
- Doesn't combine the docs for window-scale and current-window-scale.
- Doesn't remove the docs for window-scale behavior prior to 0.31.0.
Somewhat confusingly, mpv has both a window-scale option and a
current-window-scale property. The documentation lists window-scale
under properties (and it is technically is one), but at its core it is
actually an option which means it behaves subtly different. Options in
mpv are runtime-configurable, but they only change anything if the value
of the option itself changes. window-scale is an option and not meant to
keep track of the actual scale of the window (intended behavior
introduced by d07b7f0). This causes window-scale to do nothing in
certain cases (ex: the window is manually resized and window-scale is
set to 1.00 again). This is logical and consistent with the behavior of
the rest of the mpv options, but it also makes it a poor candidate for
setting the mpv window scale dynamically.
As a remedy, we can just make current-window-scale writeable instead.
current-window-scale is intended to always report the actual scale of
the window and keep track of any window size changes made by the user.
By making this property also writeable, it allows the user to have more
intuitive behavior (i.e. setting current-window-scale to 1.00 always
sets the window to a scale of 1). Additionally, the default input.conf
is changed to use current-window-scale instead of window-scale. The
window-scale documentation under property list is removed since it is
already documented under options and users should probably set the
current-window-scale property instead in most cases.
Using --sub-filter-regex-plain (default:no)
The ass-to-plaintext functionality already existed at sd_ass.c, but
it's internal and uses a private buffer type, so a trivial utility
wrapper was added with standard char*/bstr interface.
The plaintext can be multi-line, and the multi-line regexp flag is now
always set, but only affects plaintext (the ASS source is one line).
Pretty much identical to filter-regex but with JS expressions and
requires only JS support. Shares the filter-regex-* control options.
The target audience is Windows users - where filter-regex doesn't
work due to missing APIs, but mujs builds cleanly on Windows, and JS
is usually enabled in 3rd party Windows mpv builds.
Lua could have been used with similar effort, however, the JS regex
syntax is more extensive and also much more similar to POSIX.
Users expect single quotes to work when the value includes literal
backslashes or double-quotes (or as general quoting like in shell).
The updated docs also include some previously-missing notes:
- newline is only supported in double quotes.
- adjacent (quoted) arguments don't join into one.
Supporting mixed quoting (adjacent quoted strings) would make
mpv's parsing more complete, but would require delicate effort of
larger scope, for two reasons:
- We'd need to also support escaping outside of quotes and do our
best about backward compatibility.
- The parsed value can either be a substring of the input or
a newly-allocated string, which would be delicate when joining.
Not critical to add right now.
Custom quotes were added in 4f129a3e and began with !, however, this
required quoting "!reverse" (used for the cycle-values command), which
is inconvenient, and was not taken into account when ! was chosen for
custom quotes. Also, ` is more natural for quoting than !.
This does break backward compatibility with the earlier form of custom
quotes, but at least we didn't make a release yet since custom quotes
were added (the last release - 0.33[.1] doesn't support it).
Let audio-display determine whether embedded images or external cover
art tracks should be selected when both are present.
Attached pictures are given priority by default as requested in #8539.
Also updates references to attached pictures in the log and manpage to
refer to cover art as well.
Closes#8539.
This fix the warnings shown below when compiling the manual for
any of its three common formats:
```
DOCS/man/mpv.rst:46: (ERROR/3) Unknown target name: "--input-test".
DOCS/man/stats.rst:183: (ERROR/3) Unknown target name: "--input-test".
```
In rst, double-backtick starts a code string only if it's followed by
a non-space char, otherwise it's taken literally, hence, `` x2.0``
was taken literally rather than code string.
--watch-later-options-remove doesn't accept multiple options, so split
the example.
Also suggest the more correct -clr to empty the list, and remove the
workaround to not print an error with --watch-later-options=
This allows configuring which options are saved by quit-watch-later.
Fixes#4126, #4641 and #5567.
Toggling a video or audio filter twice would treat the option as changed
because the backup value is NULL, and the current value of vf/af is a
list with one empty item, so obj_settings_list_equal had to be changed.
Unlike the page switching/scrolling keys which are bound at runtime
and therefore we need to know which (configured) keys to bind, the
main keys (i/I by default) are static and can be bound via input.conf.
And indeed, the builtin bindings at etc/input.conf have them already.
- The video filter to turn the video upside-down is vflip. There is no
filter called "flip" so using it just causes an error.
- Reword a sentence.
- Add exact and all to the values accepted by cover-art-auto. They were
implemented in 029ff1049b but not added to the accepted arguments.
While --input-test is useful, and so is page 4 of stats, until now
there was no way to simply print the list in a help-like fashion.
This commit adds such printout, invoked by the script opt
stats-bindlist=yes, which uses the existing page 4 code. This prints
the list on startup and quits immediately - like any help page.
It's awkward to invoke compared to other help pages, and it does
require the stats page to be enabled (it is by default), however
it is a script-generated output, and currently there's no other
method to print a help page generated by a script.
The printout itself is performed using lua's io.write. While reliable,
it's not the standard way for mpv to print to the terminal.
Other possible printout methods are mp.msg.info - which also prints
"[stats]" prefix on each line (ugly), or forcing term-osd and setting
an osd-message which mpv will then print at the terminal - however
that's printed to stderr, and could also be subject to timing concerns
since we quit right afterwards.
In the future we can consider changing/integrating the invocation so
that mpv itself could print a help page generated by a script, thus
solving both the awkward invocation and printout-method issues.
This is a scrollable page which also works nicely with the terminal
OSD. Typically there are more than 100 bound keys.
It groups the binding using fuzzy property/command/script name after
simple analysis of the command string, and then further sorts the
binding in each group according to the "complexity" of the key itself
(plain keys -> keys with modifiers, alphabetically, etc).
The alignment/grouping style is heavily inspired by @medhefgo's #8924
but otherwise it's an independent implementation.
The --secondary-sub-visibility options was previously undocumented in
the pull request that added it. This commit adds documentation for it
and clarifies its behavior.
Modifies the sub-seek and sub-step commands with a second <flags>
argument to specify whether to seek/step on the primary or secondary
subtitles. The flag is used to index into the current_track array in
cmd_sub_step_seek.
Adds secondary-sub-start and secondary-sub-end properties by setting
the current_track index in the m_property's priv variable which later
gets accessed in get_times. Also adds a test of the secondary subtitle
time properties in tests/subtimes.js bound to 'T'.
Not sure what I was on when I wrote this. wayland-app-id is supposed to
default to "mpv". Just set that in the vo_sub_opts and don't do this
weird m_config_cache_write_opt thing. Also make the doc entry nicer.
This fixes a long-standing apparent issue where mpv would display the last
frame with no subtitles at EOF. This is caused by sub rendering switching from
video timestamps to audio timestamps when the video ends, and audio streams
often running past the timestamp of the last video frame. However, authoring
tools (most notably Aegisub) don't tend to provide easy ways to add meaningful
subtitles after the end of the video, so this is rarely actually useful.
This makes cover-art-auto behave more like sub-auto and audio-file-auto:
- load cover art with a language, e.g. if playing foo.mp3, foo.en.jpg
will be loaded with lang=en
- load cover art containing the media filename with fuzzy and all, e.g.
'foo (large).jpg'
- make all/2 load all images in the directory, and make fuzzy/1 the
default
These are all uncommon use cases, but synchronizing the behavior of the
external file options simplifies the code.
Commit 6abb7e3 updates the markers when the chapters change, but it
doesn't update their relative position at the bar when the duration
changes.
This means that adding chapters to a live stream would result in
corresponding chapter markers which were static while the duration
changed and thus their positions became incorrect over time until the
OSC was reinitialized.
This is fixed by observing the duration property if chapters are present
and reinitializing the OSC when the duration changes.
The live_markers user option, which determines whether the duration
property is observed when there are chapters, has been added in order to
allow disabling this behaviour as calling request_init() frequently
might have some impact on low-end systems.
The impact of request_init() on render() was measured to increase from
1-1.5 ms to 2-3 ms on a 2010 MacBook Air, while the impact was neglible
on a 2016 Surface Book (increasing only to an average of 1.4 ms from
1.3 ms for n=1500 render cycles).
The live_markers option is enabled by default.
This is the Vulkan equivalent of the drm context for OpenGL, with
the big difference that it's implemented purely in terms of Vulkan
calls and doesn't actually require drm or kms.
The basic idea is to identify a display, mode, and plane on a device,
and then create a display backed surface for the swapchain. In theory,
past that point, everything is the same, and this is in fact the case
on Intel hardware. I can get a video playing on a vt.
On nvidia, naturally, things don't work that way. Instead, nvidia only
implemented the extension for scenarios where a VR application is
stealing a display from a running window system, and not for
standalone scenarios. With additional code, I've got this scenario to
work but that's a separate incremental change.
Other people have tested on AMD, and report roughly the same behaviour
as on Intel.
Note, that in this change, the VT will not be correctly restored after
qutting. The only way to restore the VT is to introduce some drm
specific code which I will illustrate in a separate change.
And also change the existing WM_KILLFOCUS handler to return 0 instead
of 'break' (which later calls DefWindowProcW), as MSDN says we should
do for WM_{KILL,SET}FOCUS.
It seems that the 'focused' property is now supported by all main VOs:
x11, macOS, wayland, Windows.
TCT/sixel/caca probably don't support it, and unknown with SDL.
Fixes#8868
Not only does this have semantics that make far more sense, it also has
a default that makes far more sense. (Equivalent to the old
`icc-contrast=inf`)
This removes the weird 1000:1 contrast default assumption which
especially broke perceptual profiles and also screws things up for
OLED/CRT/etc.
Should probably close some issues but I honestly can't be bothered to
figure out which of the thousands colorimetry-related issues are
affected.
For some reason, this never existed before. Add VOCTRL_GET_DISPLAY_RES
and use it to obtain the current display's resolution from each
vo/windowing backend if applicable. Users can then access the current
display resolution as display-width and display-height as per the client
api. Note that macOS/cocoa was not attempted in this commit since the
author has no clue how to write swift.
This commit describes more accurately what currently gets disabled
by this option - specifically also keys from mp.add_key_binding.
It's not necessarily the best behavior because libmpv clients might
want to disable mpv's own builtin keybindings while still allowing
scripts to define keys which `input.conf' can override.
In the future we might exclude mp.add_key_binding from this option,
but for now at least document this option accurately.
Fixes#8809
