All other ao options are documented there so make ALSA the same.
Also remove the (Linux only) wording since some systems (e.g. FreeBSD)
provide compatibility layer for it.
While making this larger do make audio filters react slower, it doesn't
always make softvol react slower. This is because the softvol reaction
speed is related to the ao buffer size which on many systems have an
upper limit, typically much lower than 200 ms. In this case the softvol
won't react slower. Change the wording to clarify this.
This commit adds a DND_INSERT_NEXT action option for drag-and-drop,
allows for selecting it through the --drag-and-drop=insert-next option,
and adds the necessary plumbing to make that happen when something is
dragged onto the player.
Analogous changes to the previous commit ("add loadfile insert-next commands"),
but for the `loadlist` command.
This allows us to insert a new playlist next in the current playlist,
rather than just appending it to the end.
This commit adds two new commands (`insert-next` and `insert-next-play`)
which mirror the existing commands, `append` and `append-play` in
functionality, with the difference that they insert directly after the
current playlist entry, rather than at the end of the playlist.
This change gives MPV a piece of functionality already found in (for
example) Spotify's media player: "play next". Additionally, using the
new `insert-next` command, users can trivially write a script to play a
new piece of media immediately without otherwise clearing or altering
the remainder of the playlist.
This has defaulted to yes for a very long time, but evidentally it
annoys a lot of people (including myself). My argument is that this
makes no sense. mpv is for videos; not text. A 1920x1080 video should
open as 1920x1080 regardless of whatever the DPI settings of the OS is.
This can get very silly when you consider watching a 4k video which will
get this additional scale factor which is virtually never desirable.
Whether or not the OS and/or WM prevents it from getting larger than the
screen depends on a lot of things.
Previously some windowing backends required that this option be set to
yes in order to report a dpi scale value other than 1, but this should
be fixed with the previous commits. The only difference is whether or
not to scale the window by the additional factor.
Fixes#13465.
this partially reverts commit 7b5a258. back then the only properly
working vo on macOS was cocoa-cb (libmpv). it would always use the
deprecated opengl cocoa backend or no vo at all. because of that libmpv
was moved to the top of the auto-probing order, so the preferred vo
was used on macOS only.
we now have a working vulkan gpu/gpu-next backend on macOS which should
be the new default vo. though disabling the auto-probing again for
libmpv would probably cause the undesired behaviour on macOS that
cocoa-cb would never be auto selected again. especially if not build
with vulkan support or without vulkan driver on macOS, this would lead
to no video output at all. so instead of completely reverting the
mentioned commit, we instead move libmpv to the bottom of the
auto-probing order but only auto select it when mpv was built with
cocoa-cb support. this restores the previous behaviour on all other
platforms besides macOS, but also lets us auto select cocoa-cb if
supported.
On wayland, depending on the wl_output protocol version used,
the display-names property can have different values. Mention
this in the documentation, like for other platforms.
Document the use cases for enabling or disabling the wheel preprocessing.
Also note that this option has no effect on any filtering already done
by the OS/driver.
The current documentation lacks clarity regarding the interaction
between the `repeatable` and `complex` options. Through an analysis
of the source code (`player/lua/defaults.lua` and
`player/js/defaults.js`), it was observed that the `repeatable` option
is only meaningful when the `complex` option is not enabled.
Additionally, the `complex` option in the existing documentation is
confusing, actually `fn` can be called on key repeat when `complex` is
`true` and `repeatable` is not `true`.
To address these issues, the documentation for the `repeatable` option
was updated to specify that it only applies when the `complex` option is
not set to `true`. Furthermore, the description of the `complex` and
`event` were revised to acknowledge the occurrence of key repeat events.
This is technically due to the previous commits that made subtitle
rendering more efficient by eliminating redraws, but working around this
particular edge case is useless. The sub-clear-on-seek option was
originally introduced in d5940fabcd and
specifically is a workaround for completely broken mkv files. There is
no reason to use it otherwise. Because that option disables all
duplicate checking and the previous commits rework subtitle rendering in
the still image case to be dependent on keeping track of packets, the
end result is that you will get the same line rendered multiple times.
However the important case of broken mkv files with duplicate ReadOrder
fields still work just fine with --no-video. So instead of bothering
trying to make this option "work", just clarify that stuff can break
since, again, there's no reason to use it other than as a workaround for
broken files.
* Range of accepted values for teletext_page now include 0 and -1.
* 0 means "subtitle" and -1 means "*".
* Make 0 the default.

Deinterlacing required that the user set it on/off themselves, but we
actually have handy flags for detecting if a frame is interlaced. So
it's pretty simple to make an auto option using that. Unfortunately,
life is not quite that simple and there are known cases of false
positives from the ffmpeg flags so we can't make auto the default value.
However, it still may have some utility for some people, and the
detection could potentially be improved upon later. Closes#10358.
vo_rpi and its related code has pretty much historically been a
disaster in mpv. The build regularly gets broken and since nobody uses
it, it takes months for anyone to notice. There was also that time where
fullscreen was broken for about a year and a half. Also building in waf
was entirely broken for about a couple of years or so due to mysterious
reasons no one ever figured out (meson magically fixed it).
Anyways, once again the build is broken due to rpi being forgotten about
again, but instead of pretending to support this crap. Just drop it all.
Nowadays, mmal hwdec is a relic since these devices are better off using
the v4l2m2m ffmpeg fork instead which actually uses KMS properly. RPI 1
and 2 probably can't do this and will remain broken but oh well blame
Broadcom for being special snowflakes and not using standard APIs (my
rockpro worked out of the box; just saying). RPI 2 is nearly 10 years
old anyways, so I think you can afford a new SBC by now. If we were
nicer, there would be a deprecation period, but this is broken in the
last major release anyway so too late.
Closes#13402.
This can be used to auto reload the input configuration file, e.g. in
vim:
autocmd BufWritePost ~/.config/mpv/input.conf silent !echo load-input-conf %:p | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket
Partially fixes#6362.
Additionally this can be used as a replacement for deprecated input
sections if they are ever actually removed. For example, if you want to
define different bindings for images, you can load-input-conf an
input.conf for images, and load the original again when switching to a
video. Though currently you would have to redefine builtin bindings that
were overwritten with image ones in the default input.conf.
Unlike set include mpv.conf, this works after playback has started. It
can be used to auto reload the configuration, e.g. in vim:
autocmd BufWritePost ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf silent !echo load-config-file %:p | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket
Partially fixes#6362.
Some X11 window managers support controlling the title bar independently
from other window decorations with _MOTIF_WM_HINTS. This allows hiding
the title bar while keeping other decorations like the resizing borders.
Let mpv respect the --title-bar option on X11 so --no-title-bar can hide
the title bar only like on win32.
Save the cache to separate files to avoid loading/saving a huge combined
libplacebo.cache. This approach allows the saving of only new cache
objects and avoids resaving the entire cache, especially even if only a
tiny change was made.
This commit improves the cold start time of mpv and avoids saving data
when it's not necessary.
Number of changes were made:
- each cached object is saved in its own file
- cache files are prefixed with the name of cached object
- cache directory is cleaned on each uninit
- the least recently used cache files are removed if cumulative cache
size is above limit
- files used in the recent 24 hours are not removed to allow changes
to mpv.conf without worrying about the cache being removed during
experimentation
- shader cache size limit is set to 128 MiB
- icc cache size limit is set to 1.5 GiB
- cache objects are loaded/saved as needed
This commit eliminates the runtime performance penalty associated with
the size cache. While we continue to maintain the cache limit to prevent
retaining stale objects, mpv now only loads a small subset of files that
are currently required for playback, instead of loading all files.
I don't actually deinterlace ever but allegedly this is better than
yadif, and there's no real reason to not have this be the fallback
deinterlace when we're not using hw frames. Also change various mentions
of yadif to bwdif. Ref #12835.
This exports `current-gpu-context` property, which is the string
description of the current active GPU context. This allows scripts to
uniquely identify the platform and backend used for --vo=gpu
and --vo=gpu-next.
mp.observe_property('foo', nil, ...) calls the handler at least 2 times
on each playlist change even when the property doesn't change. This is
dangerous because if you haven't read observe_property's documentation
in a long time this is easy to forget, and you can end up using it for
handlers that are computationally expensive or that cause unintended
side effects.
Therefore, this commit discourages its use more explicitly in the
documentation, and replaces its usages in scripts.
For console.lua, observing focused with type nil leads to calling
mp.osd_message('') when changing file while playing in the terminal with
the console disabled. I don't notice issues from this, but it's safer to
avoid it.
For playlist and track-list this doesn't really matter since they
trigger multiple changes on each new file anyway, but changing it can
avoid encouraging people to imitate the code.
One usage of none in stats.lua is kept because according to b9084dfd47
it is a hack to replicate the deprecated tick event.
When running the console in the terminal, style log lines with the same
escape sequences as msg.c.
mp.input can also specify terminal escape sequences, e.g. a script to
select a playlist entry can invert the color of the selection.
Also add a missing newline to help's error message.
This doesn't actually work on either Windows or Linux with --terminal.
With --no-terminal or --no-input-terminal the SIGTERM handler is never
registered, so it definitely can't work.
Just remove the note about signals because it would be complicated to
explain that they don't terminate abruptly only with --terminal and only
if that signal has a handler, and it wouldn't be of interest to most
users.
fe875083b3 confused things a bit and made
--no-subs-with-matching-audio actually mean what it says: no subtitles
if the languages match. However, the option actually meant no non-forced
subtitles not no subtitles at all. This isn't really intuitive so
instead of changing the behavior back to the old way (we already have a
release since then), add a third option "forced" which is equivalent to
the old meaning of --no-subs-with-matching audio. Fixes#13151.
Currently, libplacebo always tries to reconfigure the d3d11 swapchain
to a 10-bit output format because disable_10bit_sdr isn't set to true,
even when an 8-bit format is explicitly requested via
--d3d11-output-format.
Fix this by passing the requested output format preference to libplacebo.
Document that this option may be ignored.
--ao=pipewire has been preferred on Linux for a long time, and this note
even makes it sound like alsa is preferred on any system. Just say that
the print order is the order in which the drivers are tried so this note
won't have to be updated again in the future, like --gpu-context's
documentation does.
This section has no reason to exist anymore because:
- No "desktop issues" sections exist for other platforms, and all other
Linux-specific issues are represented as notes for options. This section
only addressed one specific issue.
- This section was shortened significantly with commit
2c46ae8ea3, so there is no need for
this to be a separate section anymore.
- This section was shortened again with commit
d5e681e95d, when the original rationale
behind this section became outdated because GNOME has implemented the
idle inhibit protocol.
The historical info is moved to the documentation of --stop-screensaver.
Some places in the manpage uses `.. admonition:: Warning` instead of
the specific directive type `.. warning::` for warning admonitions.
This causes the "Warning" text appearing in black color instead of red.
Correct them here.
