We send a refcounted frame to the encoder, but then disrespect
refcounting rules and write to the frame data without making sure the
buffer is really writeable.
In theory this can lead to reallocation on every frame is the encoder
really keeps a reference. If we really cared, we could fix this by
providing a buffer pool. But then again, we don't care.
This code was supposed to adjust existing conversion filters (to make
them output a different format). But the code was just broken,
apparently a refactoring accident. It accessed af instead of af->prev.
The bug tended to add new conversion filters, even if an existing one
could have been used. (Can be tested by inserting a dummy lavrresample
filter followed by a format filter which forces conversion.)
In addition, it's probably better to return the actual error code if
reinitializing the filter fails. It would then respect an AF_FALSE
return value, which means format negotiation failed, instead of a
generic error.
af_volume has a volumedb sub-option, which allows the user to set an
explicit volume. Until recently, the player read back this value and
used it as initial softvol volume. But now it just overwrites it.
Instead of overwriting it, multiply the different gain values. Above
all, this will do the right thing if only softvol is used, or if the
user only adds the af_volume filter manually.
Normally, you want downmixing to happen first thing in the filter chain.
This is reflected in codec downmixing, which feeds the filter chain
downmixed audio in the first place. Doing this has the advantage of
needing less data to process. But the main motivation is that if there
is a drc filter in the chain, you want to process it the downmixed
audio.
Add an idiotic heuristic to achieve this. It tries to detect whether the
audio was indeed automatically downmixed (or upmixed). To detect what
the output format is going to be, it builds the filter chain normally,
and then retries with the heuristic applied (and for extra paranoia,
retries without the heuristic again if it fails to successfully rebuild
the filter chain for unknown reasons). This is simple and will work in
almost all cases.
Doing it in a more complete way is rather hard, because filters are so
generic. For example, we know absolutely nothing about the behavior of
af_lavfi, which creates an opaque filter graph with libavfilter. We
don't know why a filter would e.g. change the channel layout on its
output. (Our heuristic bails out in this case.) We're also slave to the
lowest common denominator of how our format negotiation works, and how
libavfilter's works.
In theory, we could make this mechanism explicit by introducing a
special dummy filter. The filter chain would then try to convert between
input and output formats at the dummy filter, which would give the user
more control over how downmix happens. On the other hand, the user could
just insert explicit conversion filters instead, so this would probably
have questionable value.
The algorithm and functionality is the same, but the code becomes much
simpler and easier to follow.
The assumption that there is only 1 conversion filter (lavrresample)
helps with the simplification, but the main change is to use the same
code for format/channels/rate. Get rid of the different AF_CONTROL_SET_*
controls, and change the af->data parameters directly. (af->data is
badly named, but essentially is a placeholder for the output format.)
Also, instead of trying to use the af_reinit() loop to init inserted
conversion filters or filters with changed output formats, do it inline,
and move the common code to a filter_reinit() function. This gets rid of
the awful retry variable.
In general, this should not change any runtime behavior.
This happens to be better for the af_volume filter (for softvol), and
saves some code too. It's "better" because you want to affect the
final filtered audio, such as after a manually inserted drc filter.
Instead of hardcoding what the libavcodec ac3 encoder expects, configure
it based on the AVCodec fields.
Unfortunately, it doesn't export the list of sample rates, so that is
done manually. This commit actually fixes the rate always to 48Khz. I
don't even know whether the other rates worked. (Possibly did, but
they'd still change the spdif parameters, and would work differently
from ad_spdif.c.)
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.
Remove flc-frc <-> sl<->sr. This was just plain wrong, and a mistaken
change to make 7.1 work properly on CoreAudio with 7.1(rear) layout.
Also see the following commit.
Add br-br <-> sl<->sr, because we decided that it makes sense.
Note that this "fudging" is applied only if the channel pairs are
replaced, i.e. they would get dropped and be replaced with silence. This
is done to compensate for libswresample's default rematrixing (which
takes care of some more common cases).
This also makes it refcounted, i.e. the new AVFrame will reference the
mp_audio buffers, instead of potentially forcing the consumer of the
AVFrame to copy the data.
All the extra code is for handling the >8 channels case, which requires
very messy dealing with the extended_ fields (not our fault).
This is probably the 3rd time the user-visible behavior changes. This
time, switch back because not normalizing seems to be the more expected
behavior from users.
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.
Prevents channels from being dropped, e.g. when going 7.1 -> 7.1(wide)
and similar cases. The reasoning here is that channel layouts over HDMI
don't work anyway, and not dropping a channel and playing it on a
slightly "wrong" (but expected) speaker is preferable to playing silence
on these speakers.
Do this to remove issues with ao_coreaudio. Frankly I'm not sure whether
our mapping (between CA and mpv/FFmpeg speakers) is correct, but on the
other hand due to the reasons stated above it's not all that meaningful.
Of course, only FFmpeg has av_clipd(), while Libav does not. (Nevermind
that it doesn't do much more than the mpv MPCLAMP() macro. Supposedly,
libavutil can provide optimized platform-specific versions for av_clip*,
but of course nothing actually does for av_clipf() or av_clipd().)
libswresample doesn't do it - although it should, but the patch is stuck
in limbo.
Probably reduces problems with artifacts on downmixing in some cases.
Just set the ratio directly by working around the intended semantics of
the API function. The silly rounding stuff we had isn't needed anymore
(and not entirely correct anyway).
Note that since the compensation is virtually active forever, we need to
reset if it's not needed. So always run this code to be sure to reset
it.
Also note that libswresample itself had a precision issue, until it
was fixed in FFmpeg commit 351e625d.
Actually, it didn't really require that before (most work was avoided),
but some bits had to be run anyway. Separate the speed change into a
light-weight function, which merely updates already created filters, and
a heavy-weight one which messes with filter insertion.
This also happens to fix the case where the filters would "forget" the
current speed (force resampling, change speed, hit a volume control to
force af_volume insertion - it will reset speed and desync).
Since we now always run the light-weight function, remove the
af_scaletempo verbose message that is printed on speed setting. Other
than that, all setters are cheap.
For some reason, the encoder didn't like that the AVPacket already had
fields set. I'm not quite sure, but this might just be invalid API
usage. Do it as it's recommended.
This reverts commit 4e358a9636.
Testing shows the channel pairs must indeed be swapped (details see
commit message of the reverted commit). Making the downmix code move
sl/sr to sdl/sdr is not an appropriate solution anymore, and it's
better to fix the unusual channel layout in ao_alsa.c directly.
(Not reverting the change in chmap.c; this is still correct.)
ao_alsa: attempt to fix 7.1 over HDMI
The last 2 channels of 7.1 (RLC/RRC in ALSA) were exported as sdl/sdr
instead of sl/sr (I don't even know why I chose sdl/sdr, but SL/SR
and RLC/RRC are different in the ALSA API). libsw/avresample do not
move the sl/sr channels to sdl/sdr when rematrixing, so silence was
sent for 2 channels. If my selection of sdl/sdr is essentially API
abuse, there's no reason why they should do this differently.
The mess here is really that ALSa doesn't map the HDMI layouts cleanly.
Most ALSA drivers export 7.1 in a way compatible to our expectations,
but Intel HDA/HDMI does not:
mpv/ffmpeg: fl-fr-fc-lfe-bl-br-sl-sr
ALSA/generic: FL FR FC LFE RL RR SL SR [1]
ALSA/HDMI: FL FR LFE FC RL RR RLC RRC [2]
The HDMI layout is layout 0x13 (going by CEA-861-B). The comment in
the kernel code has to be correct too. The early standard defines only
1 other layout, which replaces RLC/RRC with FRC/FLC - this probably
corresponds to what we call "7.1(wide)".
So it appears when ALSA requests RLC/RRC, we should feed it sl/sr.
To make it more complicated, Kodi/xbmc apparently also have to deal with
ALSA being special, but instead of sending sl/sr to RLC/RRC, they swap
the last two pairs of the layout, and send sl/sr to RL/RR and bl/br to
RLC/RRC. Or I might have misunderstood their code. I don't have a
7.1-capable A/V receiver, so I can't test this.
For now, go with the simpler solution, and wait until someone tests it.
If the speakers end up swapped, a completely different solution will be
needed.

av_free_packet() got finally deprecated. Use av_packet_unref() instead,
which has almost the same semantics, has existed for a while, and is
available in all FFmpeg and Libav versions we support.
av_get_default_channel_layout() fails with channel counts larger than 8.
The channel layout doesn't need to make sense, so pick an arbitrary
fallback.
libswresample also has options for setting the channel counts directly,
but better not introduce new concepts in the code. Also, libavresample
doesn't have these options.
This code removes filters which can not take spdif inout. This was made
so that PCM filters are transparently dropped in spdif mode.
This entered an endless loop with:
--af=lavcac3enc:::2 --audio-channels=5.1
The forced number of output channels is incompatible with spdif. It's
trying to insert af_lavrresample as conversion filter to compensate for
it. Of course this doesn't work, which triggers the PCM filter removal.
Then it goes on normally - since the new state is exactly as before, it
will try the same thing again, forever.
Fix by reusing the retry counter, which is a very dumb but very
effective measure against these cases of filter negotiation failure. We
could try to be more clever (for example, if the removed filter is a
conversion filter, we can be sure this won't work, and error out
immediately). But better keep it simple and robust.
Small adjustments to the playback speed use swr_set_compensation()
to stretch the audio as it is required. But since large adjustments
are now handled by actually reinitializing libswresample, the small
adjustments get rounded off completely with typical frame sizes.
Compensate for this by accounting for the rounding error and keeping
track of fractional samples that should have been output to achieve
the correct ratio.
This fixes display sync mode behavior, which requires these adjustments
to be relatively accurate.
swr/avresample_set_compensation() was made for small speed adjustments.
Non-documentation says it should be used for changes not larger than 1%,
so reinitialize the sampler if the change is larger than that.
swr_set_compensation() changes the apparent sample rate on the fly (who
would have guessed). It is thus very well-suited for adjusting audio
speed on the fly during playback (like needed by the display-sync mode).
It skips the relatively slow resampler reinitialization.
If this doesn't work (libswresample soxr backend), then fall back to the
old method.
This flag was used by some filters and made sure none of these filters
were inserted twice. This triggers only if the user explicitly tries to
add multiple filters (and not e.g. due to auto-insertion), so at best
this warned the user from doing something potentially pointless. At
worst, it blocked some (mildly) legitimate use-cases. Get rid of it.
Also see #2322.
The reason MPlayer traditionally duplicated them all over the place is
that it wanted every component to be a self-contained library (e.g.
audio filters were in "libaf"). But this is not necessarily helpful, and
this change makes the following commit a bit simpler.
Not sure why struct af_resample_opts even exists. It seems useful to
group the fields set by user options. But storing the current format
conversion parameters doesn't seem very elegant, and having a separate
instance in the "ctx" field isn't helpful either.
