The call was hidden very well, via
dvb_streaming_read -> dvb_update_config
-> dvb_streaming_start -> dvb_set_channel,
and broke the stream buffering logic.
Dropping that call does not noticeably slow down channel switches.
Change all OPT_* macros such that they don't define the entire m_option
initializer, and instead expand only to a part of it, which sets certain
fields. This requires changing almost every option declaration, because
they all use these macros. A declaration now always starts with
{"name", ...
followed by designated initializers only (possibly wrapped in macros).
The OPT_* macros now initialize the .offset and .type fields only,
sometimes also .priv and others.
I think this change makes the option macros less tricky. The old code
had to stuff everything into macro arguments (and attempted to allow
setting arbitrary fields by letting the user pass designated
initializers in the vararg parts). Some of this was made messy due to
C99 and C11 not allowing 0-sized varargs with ',' removal. It's also
possible that this change is pointless, other than cosmetic preferences.
Not too happy about some things. For example, the OPT_CHOICE()
indentation I applied looks a bit ugly.
Much of this change was done with regex search&replace, but some places
required manual editing. In particular, code in "obscure" areas (which I
didn't include in compilation) might be broken now.
In wayland_common.c the author of some option declarations confused the
flags parameter with the default value (though the default value was
also properly set below). I fixed this with this change.
mpv has a very weak and very annoying policy that determines whether a
playlist should be used or not. For example, if you play a remote
playlist, you usually don't want it to be able to read local filesystem
entries. (Although for a media player the impact is small I guess.)
It's weak and annoying as in that it does not prevent certain cases
which could be interpreted as bad in some cases, such as allowing
playlists on the local filesystem to reference remote URLs. It probably
barely makes sense, but we just want to exclude some other "definitely
not a good idea" things, all while playlists generally just work, so
whatever.
The policy is:
- from the command line anything is played
- local playlists can reference anything except "unsafe" streams
("unsafe" means special stream inputs like libavfilter graphs)
- remote playlists can reference only remote URLs
- things like "memory://" and archives are "transparent" to this
This commit does... something. It replaces the weird stream flags with a
slightly clearer "origin" value, which is now consequently passed down
and used everywhere. It fixes some deviations from the described policy.
I wanted to force archives to reference only content within them, but
this would probably have been more complicated (or required different
abstractions), and I'm too lazy to figure it out, so archives are now
"transparent" (playlists within archives behave the same outside).
There may be a lot of bugs in this.
This is unfortunately a very noisy commit because:
- every stream open call now needs to pass the origin
- so does every demuxer open call (=> params param. gets mandatory)
- most stream were changed to provide the "origin" value
- the origin value needed to be passed along in a lot of places
- I was too lazy to split the commit
Fixes: #7274
This is preparation to get rid of the option-to-property bridge
(mp_on_set_option). This is a pretty insane thing that redirects
accesses to options to properties. It was needed in the ever ongoing
transition from something to... something else.
A good example for the need of this bridge is applying profiles at
runtime. This obviously goes through the config parser, but should also
make all changes effective, for which traditionally the property layer
is used.
There isn't much left that needs this bridge. This commit changes a
bunch of options (which also have a property implementation) to use
option change notifications instead. Many of the properties are still
left, but perform unrelated functions like OSD formatting.
This should be mostly compatible. There may be some subtle behavior
changes. For example, "hwdec" and "record-file" do not check for changes
anymore before applying them, so writing the current value to them
suddenly does something, while it was ignored before.
DVB changes untested, but should work.
This is realized by dvbin-channel-switch-offset,
which is a numeric offset on the channel initially tuned to.
Since the channel list is kept in the stream alone
depending on detected hardware and chosen card,
and no available backchannel to the player, there's no direct
property which could be switched.
Using input.conf like:
H cycle dvbin-channel-switch-offset up
K cycle dvbin-channel-switch-offset down
Q set dvbin-prog "ZDF HD"
allow fast and reliable channel switching again.
If any parameters have been updated, reinitiate streaming_start.
Throttle checks since we poll from streaming_read.
This also requires the player to re-initialize, since all video
and audio streams and even the transport format may change.
This is added in the next commit.
This is now treated in dvb_parse_path consistently
instead of logic scattered over various functions.
This is a requirement to sensibly re-evaluate config
after options have been changed, since we have two ways
to configure the stream (decorated URI and config parameters).
(At first I left this intentionally, because the temporarily disabled
stream ctrl code used it, but there's actually no reason to annoy
everyone with the warning.)
Linux analog TV support (via tv://) was excessively complex, and
whenever I attempted to use it (cameras or loopback devices), it didn't
work well, or would have required some major work to update it. It's
very much stuck in the analog past (my favorite are the frequency tables
in frequencies.c for analog TV channels which don't exist anymore).
Especially cameras and such work fine with libavdevice and better than
tv://, for example:
mpv av://v4l2:/dev/video0
(adding --profile=low-latency --untimed even makes it mostly realtime)
Adding a new input layer that targets such "modern" uses would be
acceptable, if anyone is interested in it. The old TV code is just too
focused on actual analog TV.
DVB is rather obscure, but has an active maintainer, so don't remove it.
However, the demux/stream ctrl layer must go, so remove controls for
channel switching. Most of these could be reimplemented by using the
normal method for option runtime changes.
While they accept the frequency field with MHz for DVB-S,
for DVB-C and DVB-T, it may be in Hz, kHz or MHz.
The official rule is to multiply whatever is in the channels.conf
by 1000 until a value > 1000000 is reached to get correct units for tuning.
Manual changes done:
* Merged the interface-changes under the already master'd changes.
* Moved the hwdec-related option changes to video/decode/vd_lavc.c.
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.
The properties/commands touched in this commit are all for obscure
special inputs (BD/DVD/DVB/TV), and they all block on the demuxer/stream
layer. For network streams, this blocking is very unwelcome. They will
affect playback and probably introduce pauses and frame drops. The
player can even freeze fully, and the logic that tries to make playback
abortable even if frozen complicates the player.
Since the mentioned accesses are not needed for network streams, but
they will block on network streams even though they're going to fail,
add a flag that coarsely enables/disables these accesses. Essentially it
establishes a whitelist of demuxers/streams which support them.
In theory you could to access BD/DVD images over network (or add such
support, I don't think it's a thing in mpv). In these cases these
controls still can block and could even "freeze" the player completely.
Writing to the "program" and "cache-size" properties still can block
even for network streams. Just don't use them if you don't want freezes.
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.
ATSC is a mix of terrestrial and cable,
and depending on modulation is actually using
DVBC_ANNEX_B. Thus, we need to override the delivery
system depending on the modulation, channel by channel.

These values are kept with a different unit in VDR style config
for all delivery systems, not only for DVB-S / DVB-S2.

This fixes a crash when changing channels; previously stream->priv would not

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.
Most common case would be DVB-C / DVB-T combination cards.
Cards with multiple delivery systems are only supported
starting from DVBv5 API (Kernel 2.6.38).
In this case, we loop over all delivery systems and
just treat them as different cards would be treated:
They all get their own TUNER-type, channel-list parsing etc.
On read, it returns the name of the current DVB program,
on write, it triggers a channel-switch to the program
if it is found in the channel list of the currently active card.
Compared to the dvb-channel property which already exists
and is a pair of integers (card + channel number) this has the limitation
of not switching the card, but is probably of much more common use.
The mutex is used in dvbin_open and dvbin_close only since these are
the only entry / exit points to the stream.
When opening, it is first checked (mutexed) whether the state already exists
and is in use, then a STREAM_ERROR is returned,
since there may be only one stream_dvb active at a time.
State-creation itself is also protected by mutex.
In dvbin_close, the usage-bit is set to false (mutexed) in case
of channel switch.
In case of stream-teardown, the state is destructed
(also protected by mutex).
The state-structure is kept in a static pointer and reused on
recreation of the stream.
To not leak the state and the FDs within upon mpv shutdown,
the state-structure is still destructed gracefully in dvbin_close(),
unless a channel switch has been initiated directly before.
This fixes channel-switching for DVB which was broken since a609877.
The state-struct now contains everything which can be kept after initial initialization.
This includes the channel-lists, configuration, device-fds and also information like
current channel and current card.
The dvb_priv_t is kept containing the mp-options, a pointer to the state and to the logger.
After this restructuring, the state-struct contains all information which can be persisted
across channel switching.
This complains within dvb_strtok_r() that savePtr is uninitialized.
There doesn't seem to be any code path where this can happen though, so
it's probably a false positive. Silence it anyway.
This causes more constant reading from the DVB device,
and seems not to hurt the stream-controls.
As the device cache seems to fill up when not
reading from it for several seconds, reading
into the cache fixes desync-issues after
the initial analyzeduration of the demuxer.
