The demuxer cache is the only cache now. Might need another change to
combat seeking failures in mp4 etc. The only bad thing is the loss of
cache-speed, which was sort of nice to have.
This should actually cover all of them, if you take into account that
some unchanged GPL source files include header files with such checks.
Also this was done already for the libaf derived code.
This is only for "safety" and to avoid misunderstandings.
Because it's kind of dumb. (But not sure if it was worth the trouble.)
For stream_file.c, we add new explicit fields. The rest are rather
special uses and can be killed by comparing the stream impl. name.
The changes to DVD/BD/CD/TV are entirely untested.
Ever since a change in mplayer2 or so, relative seeks were translated to
absolute seeks before sending them to the demuxer in most cases. The
only exception in current mpv is DVD seeking.
Remove the SEEK_ABSOLUTE flag; it's not the implied default. SEEK_FACTOR
is kept, because it's sometimes slightly useful for seeking in things
like transport streams. (And maybe mkv files without duration set?)
DVD seeking is terrible because DVD and libdvdnav are terrible, but
mostly because libdvdnav is terrible. libdvdnav does not expose seeking
with seek tables. (Although I know xbmc/kodi use an undocumented API
that is not declared in the headers by dladdr()ing it - I think the
function is dvdnav_jump_to_sector_by_time().) With the current mpv
policy if not giving a shit about DVD, just revert our half-working seek
hacks and always use dvdnav_time_search(). Relative seeking might get
stuck sometimes; in this case --hr-seek=always is recommended.
DVD/BD menu support never worked right, and are a pain to maintain. In
particular, DVD menus never actually worked correctly, because
highlights were not rendered correctly. Fixing this requires major
effort, which I'm not interested to spend.
Most importantly, the requirement to switch streams without losing the
DVD/BD state caused major weirdness in the playback core. It was
implemented by somehow syncing the playback state to the DVD/BD
implementation (in stream_dvdnav.c etc.), and then reloading the demuxer
without destroying and recreating the stream. This caused a bunch of
special-cases which I'm looking forward to remove.
For now, don't just remove everything related to menu support and just
disable it. If someone volunteers, it can be restored (i.e. rewritten)
in a reasonable way. If nobody volunteers soon, it goes.
libdvdnav is garbage. Seeking by time is incredibly inexact, which is in
part due to the fact that it does not use the DVD seek tables. Instead,
it assumes CBR for certain ranges within the DVD, which makes especially
small seeks unreliable.
I have no good fix for this, other than hacking libdvdnav (I'd rather
prefer to remove mpv DVD support completely than doing this). So here's
a shitty hack that tries to workaround these problems. A basic
observation is that seeking in VLC seems to work quite well; however it
seems to be based on seeking by blocks (unless there is a subtle "trick"
I didn't see in the source code). mpv usually seeks by timestamps, so
this is not an option for us. However, we can pretend we are doing this
in the DVD layer.
The previous commit added a way to pass through relative seeks. This
commit uses the relative seek. STREAM_CTRL_SEEK_TO_TIME is backwards
compatible (there's still dvdread and bluray), so most code is about
extracing the relative seek information and turning it into a block
seek.
(Another way would have been using SEEK_FACTOR stuff, but that would
probably make for a less reliable way to handle this situation.)
Additionally, if a hr-seek is done, add an offset by 10 seconds. As long
as the error done by libdvdnav is not worse, this should help with hr-
seeks - although it makes them much slower.
As suggested in issue #1251. I think the main point is that it acts as
a hack to return to the DVD menu when jumping past the last chapter,
because it will reach title-EOF, instead of explicitly jumping to the
next file (which usually exits the player).
This basically reverts commit 8b7418d, except it doesn't include an
off-by-1 error (apparently).
Closes#1251.
This was requested.
It seems libdvdread can't get the duration for titlesets other than the
currently opened title. The data structures contain dangling pointers
for these, and MPlayer works this around by opening every title
separately for the purpose of dumping the title list.
Apparently, libdvdnav always reports a last chapter that points to the
exact end of the title. This is useless for us.
Again, same possible caveats as with the previous commit.
This way, chapter 0 will always point to the start of the title.
At least this is the intention; it's likely that DVDs as well as
libdvdnav do random things that lead to random results.
Same hack as with stream_dvd.c.
VIDEO_TS.IFO files are now opened via stream_dvdnav.c. Directories
containing a VIDEO_TS.IFO or VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO file are also
opened with it.
DVD and Bluray (and to some extent cdda) require awful hacks all over
the codebase to make them work. The main reason is that they act like
container, but are entirely implemented on the stream layer. The raw
mpeg data resulting from these streams must be "extended" with the
container-like metadata transported via STREAM_CTRLs. The result were
hacks all over demux.c and some higher-level parts.
Add a "disc" pseudo-demuxer, and move all these hacks and special-cases
to it.
While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations
(it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write
section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only
when we really need.
For some reason, we support writeable streams. (Only encoding uses that,
and the use of it looks messy enough that I want to replace it with FILE
or avio today.)
It's a chaos: most streams do not actually check the mode parameter like
they should. Simplify it, and let streams signal availability of write
mode by setting a flag in the stream info struct.
Stop using it in most places, and prefer STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE. The
advantage is that always the correct size will be used. There can be no
doubt anymore whether the end_pos value is outdated (as it happens often
with files that are being downloaded).
Some streams still use end_pos. They don't change size, and it's easier
to emulate STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE using end_pos, instead of adding a
STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE implementation to these streams.
Make sure int64_t is always used for STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE (it was
uint64_t before).
Remove the seek flags mess, and replace them with a seekable flag. Every
stream must set it consistently now, and an assertion in stream.c checks
this. Don't distinguish between streams that can only be forward or
backwards seeked, since we have no such stream types.
Also remove MSGL_SMODE and friends.
Note: The indent in options.rst was added to work around a bug in
ReportLab that causes the PDF manual build to fail.
dvdnav.c did not handle event in regular sequence. Usually this
does not make any trouble except around MP_NAV_EVENT_RESET_ALL.
Those events should be handled in regular sequence. If they're
mixed, it can make wrong result.
For instance, MP_NAV_EVENT_HIGHLIGHT right after
MP_NAV_EVENT_RESET_ALL should not be ignored but it might be
because MP_NAV_EVENT_RESET_ALL makes the demuxer reloaded and osd
hidden.
Stream-level chapters (like DVD etc.) did potentially not have
timestamps for each chapter, so STREAM_CTRL_SEEK_TO_CHAPTER and
STREAM_CTRL_GET_CURRENT_CHAPTER were needed to navigate chapters. We've
switched everything to use timestamps and that seems to work, so we can
simplify the code and remove this old mechanism.
This commit makes 'disc-title' properties for DVDs start from 0.
There was an inconsistency around 'disc-title' property between
DVDs (from 1) and Blu-rays (from 0). This fixes#648.

This commit provides impelmentation of STREAM_CTRL_GET_NUM_TITLES
for dvdnav stream. Other streams for DVD or Blu-ray are already
provide STREAM_CTRL_GET_NUM_TITLES.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
The tmsg stuff was for the internal gettext() based translation system,
which nobody ever attempted to use and thus was removed. mp_gtext() and
set_osd_tmsg() were also for this.
mp_dbg was once enabled in debug mode only, but since we have log level
for enabling debug messages, it seems utterly useless.
Before this, they were displayed forever. Since some dvd screens seem
not to allow escaping from the still frame using the menu, this could
get you stuck forever.
