Instead of forcing each property implementation implement its own logic
for M_PROPERTY_STEP_UP/M_PROPERTY_STEP_DOWN, handle it in the generic
property code.
Rename the M_PROPERTY_STEP_UP command to M_PROPERTY_SWITCH (the other
property command, M_PROPERTY_STEP_DOWN, isn't needed anymore: stepping
downwards is done by passing a negative argument). Always use double as
argument type; it makes the code easier, and covers all property types.
Move the code which does the actual type-specific value stepping to
m_option.c (the idea is that m_option handles types).
Some properties still have custom handlers implemented with
M_PROPERTY_SWITCH. They can't be mapped to the generic mechanism,
because their value range is dynamic or entirely unknown.
For some properties, the default step stride is changed to 1. This is no
issue, because the default bindings in input.conf all use an explicit
stride in the affected cases.
This was the option parser for the off_t C type. These days, off_t is
always int64_t, so replace all its uses by int64_t and CONF_TYPE_INT64.
Fix the --sstep option. It used CONF_TYPE_INT with an off_t variable,
which will result in invalid memory accesses. Make it use type double
instead, which seems to make more sense for this option.
The --vid, --aid, --sid options now accept the values 'off' and 'auto',
instead of having the user deal with the numeric values -2 and -1. The
numeric values are not allowed anymore.
Remove the --audio option. It was probably meant as compensation option
for --no-audio. There are no such options for sub/video, and it was not
documented, so just remove it. The replacement is "--aid=auto".
Also do some updates to the manpage.
The --loop option takes slightly different parameters now. --loop=0
used to mean looping forever. Now it means looping is disabled (this is
more logical: 2 means playing 2 more times, 1 means playing 1 more time,
and 0 should mean playing not again).
Now --loop=inf must be used to enable looping forever.
Extend choice types to allow an optional range of integers as values.
If CONF_RANGE is added to the flags of a m_option_type_choice option,
m_option.min/max specify a range of allowed integer values. This can be
used to remove "special" values from make integer range options. These
special values are unintuitive, and sometimes expose mplayer internals
to the user. The (internal) choice values can be freely mixed with the
specified integer value range. If there are overlaps, the choice values
are preferred for conversion to/from strings.
Also make sure the extension to choice options works with properties.
Add the ability to step choice properties downwards, instead of just
upwards.
This was to make an option without value use the option's default value
(e.g. --term-osd is the same as --term-osd=auto). Make it simpler by
handling this case as an empty choice.
The flag was probably needed when option handling still did ambiguous
argument parsing.
Given your option struct has a field that is a pointer to another
struct, this commit allows you to declare options that write into that
other struct. The code in m_config will dereference the pointer field
on its own if such an option is accessed. If the field is NULL on
initialization of the containing m_config, the struct is automatically
allocated.
OPT_SUBSTRUCT() can be used to declare such a field.
struct m_sub_options is used to describe the pointed-to struct, and
includes size and defaults if the struct has to be allocated by
m_config.
M_OPT_PREFIXED allows adding top-level options with the suboption
mechanism. The point of this is that, even though these options are
top-level options, they don't need to be added directly to a top-
level option array (such as mplayer_opts[]). Instead, the suboption
can be defined in a separate source file. Only a suboption declaration
is needed to add these options.
M_OPT_MERGE is similar to M_OPT_PREFIXED, but doesn't add the name of
the suboptions entry as prefix.
Given you have a suboption declaration "prefix" and the suboption
"subopt", you can pass them as follows on the command line:
normal: --prefix=subopt=value
M_OPT_PREFIXED: --prefix-subopt=value
M_OPT_MERGE: --subopt=value
Doesn't make sense because we broke/are going to break compatibility
with everything anyway.
Remove mechanism for warning the user against disabled options.
Remove colorspace alternative option values.
Options parsing used to be ambiguous, as in the splitting into option
and values pairs was ambiguous. Example:
-option -something
It wasn't clear whether -option actually takes an argument or not. The
string "-something" could either be a separate option, or an argument
to "-option". The code had to call the option specific parser function
to resolve this.
This made everything complicated and didn't even have a real use. There
was only one case where this was actually used: string lists
(m_option_type_string_list) and options based on it. That is because
this option type actually turns a single option into a proxy for several
real arguments, e.g. "vf*" can handle "-vf-add" and "-vf-clr". Options
suffixed with "-clr" are the only options of this group which take no
arguments.
This is ambiguous only with the "old syntax" (as shown above). The "new"
option syntax always puts option name and value into same argument.
(E.g. "--option=--something" or "--option" "--something".)
Simplify the code by making it statically known whether an option takes
a parameter or not with the flag M_OPT_TYPE_OLD_SYNTAX_NO_PARAM. If it's
set, the option parser assumes the option takes no argument.
The only real ambiguity left, string list options that end on "-clr",
are special cased in the parser.
Remove some duplication of the logic in the command line parser by
moving all argument splitting logic into split_opt(). (It's arguable
whether that can be considered code duplication, but now the code is a
bit simpler anyway. This might be subjective.)
Remove the "ambiguous" parameter from all option parsing related code.
Make m_config unaware of the pre-parsing concept.
Make most CONF_NOCFG options also CONF_GLOBAL (except those explicitly
usable as per-file options.)
This was already treated like CONF_GLOBAL.
Profiles can actually be file-local, as long as the profile sets file
local options only. Allow them to do so.
This reverts commit 48f0692ab9 "options: make option struct the talloc parent of options".
This made things actually more complicated. It introduced a new
parameter to the option parse and copy functions, which was used
inconsistently. Some code passed a parent, some not. Morever, you have
to call m_option_free() anyway, because not all options actually
respect the talloc parent. There is also the question whether passing
NULL as parent is supposed to work, or if you still have to implement
m_config_free().
On the other hand, this simplifies nothing. I assume the intention was
being able to free all option values with a single talloc_free() call,
but the same goal can be reached by simply freeing the m_config struct.
(The m_config talloc destructor will free each option values.)
Get rid of the talloc parent context parameter. This essentially
reverts commit 48f0692ab9 ("options: make option struct the talloc parent of options").
In video_out.c, make the VO priv struct the talloc parent for the
m_config object, so that destroying the VO will free the options.
The ability to free the m_config struct and all its managed options was
introduced in commit 89a17bcda6.
The old option parser required adding two options for each flag option:
e.g. "-video" and "-novideo". Later, code was added to handle the "no-"
prefix automatically for flag options. Remove the "no" prefixed options
entirely (unless they are not flag options, then just rename them), and
require the user to use the "no-" prefix instead.
You can't use the old prefix anymore.
Old: -novideo
New: --no-video
Conflicts:
.gitignore
bstr.c
cfg-mplayer.h
defaultopts.c
libvo/video_out.c
The conflict in bstr.c is due to uau adding a bstr_getline function in
commit 2ba8b91a97. This function already existed in this branch.
While uau's function is obviously derived from mine, it's incompatible.
His function preserves line breaks, while mine strips them. Add a
bstr_strip_linebreaks function, fix all other uses of bstr_getline, and
pick uau's implementation.
In .gitignore, change vo_gl3_shaders.h to use an absolute path
additional to resolving the merge conflict.
Allocate dynamically-allocated option values as talloc children of the
option struct. This will allow implementing per-object (VO etc)
options so that simply freeing the object will free associated options
too.
This doesn't change quite every allocation in m_option.c, but the
exceptions are legacy types which will not matter for new per-object
options.
Add an alternate mode for option parser objects (struct m_config)
which is not inherently tied to any particular instance of an option
value struct. Instead, this type or parsers can be used to initialize
defaults in or parse values into a struct given as a parameter. They
do not have the save slot functionality used for main player
configuration. The new functionality will be used to replace the
separate subopt_helper.c parsing code that is currently used to parse
per-object suboptions in VOs etc.
Previously, option default values were handled by initializing them in
external code before creating a parser. This initialization was done
with constants even for dynamically-allocated types like strings.
Because trying to free a pointer to a constant would cause a crash
when trying to replace the default with another value, parser
initialization code then replaced all the original defaults with
dynamically-allocated copies. This replace-with-copy behavior is no
longer supported for new-style options; instead the option definition
itself may contain a default value (new OPTDEF macros), and the new
function m_config_initialize() is used to set all options to their
default values. Convert the existing initialized dynamically allocated
options in main config (the string options --dumpfile, --term-osd-esc,
--input=conf) to use this. Other non-dynamic ones could be later
converted to use this style of initialization too.
There's currently no public call to free all dynamically allocated
options in a given option struct because I intend to use talloc
functionality for that (make them children of the struct and free with
it).
Each option type had three separate operations to copy option values
between memory locations: copy between general memory locations
("copy"), copy from general memory to active configuration of the
program ("set"), and in the other direction ("save"). No normal option
depends on this distinction any more. Change everything to define and
use a single "copy" operation only. Change the special options
"include" and "profile", which depended on hacky option types, to be
special-cased directly in option parsing instead. Remove the now
unused option types m_option_type_func and m_option_type_func_param.
Remove the old EDL implementation that was activated with the --edl
option. It is mostly redundant and inferior compared to the newer
demux_edl support, though currently there's no support for using the
same EDL files with the new implementation and the mute functionality
of the old implementation is not supported. The main reason to remove
the old implementation at this point is that the mute functionality
would conflict with following audio volume handling changes, and
working on the old code would be a wasted effort in the long run as at
some point it would be removed anyway.
The --edlout functionality is kept for now, even though after this
commit there is no code that could directly read its output.
If an m_option_type_choice option is declared with M_OPT_IMPLICIT_DEFAULT
in its flags, it doesn't require a parameter. For example, if --opt is
such an option, it can be invoked as "--opt=val", "-opt", or "--opt".
The last two will set the option to the first choice the option declares.
Note that "-opt val" (using the old option syntax) is not allowed in this
case, as it would be ambiguous.
Normal option parsing should be unaffected.
Add functionality to mark options that depend on features disabled at
compile time as disabled rather than not compiling the option
definitions at all. This allows printing a warning about the option
not being available because of a disabled feature, instead of just
"unknown option". Because the option definitions are still compiled
fully, this only works for definitions that do not reference symbols
which are not available if the feature is disabled. Use the new
functionality for options depending on libass.
If parsing an option fails, print a string corresponding to the parse
function return value (M_OPT_MISSING_PARAM etc). The primary
motivation is that the parsing code already outputs messages
explaining most problems, but does not itself print anything in the
missing parameter case. Before double-dash --options such errors were
rare (or rather they resulted in the next commandline argument being
silently misinterpreted as an argument to the previous option
instead); but now an argument like "--ss" should give a better
indication about the problem than just "Error parsing option".
Make per-file loop option start from --ss position, not always 0.
Do looping in more cases; before looping was only done when
encountering real end of file, now it also happens for example at
--endpos or --frames limits. Also move the --ss option to the option
struct.
Command line options like "-foo xyz" are ambiguous: "xyz" may be a
parameter to the option "foo" or an unrelated argument. Instead of
relying on the struct m_config mode field (commandline/file) pass
parameters to specify ambiguous mode explicitly. Meant for "--foo"
options which are never ambiguous on command line either.
Allow specifying a custom separator character for options of string
list type, and use that to define OPT_PATHLIST which takes a list of
strings separated by ':' (or ';' on Windows).
The resulting semantics of this flag are weird enough that they're
unlikely to be what is wanted in any situation. Remove the flag and
convert the two options using it, -screenw and -screenh, to use
CONF_NOSAVE instead. I'm not sure why those specific options had the
flag and if any flag is really needed, but I don't want to check in
detail now and using CONF_NOSAVE should keep about the same behavior
in practice.
A bit more detail about the weird behavior this flag had:
When not using file groups, the flag had the same behavior as
CONF_NOSAVE, namely that when switching files the option would not be
reset to the global value (only possible file-specific settings were
applied). When using file groups, group-specific options would apply
to the _first two_ files in the group, but for the rest after the
first two, settings would not be reset when changing files (wtf?).
This was a result of the following sequence:
1) push higher-level settings, enter group
2) apply group-specific settings
3) push settings before applying ones specific to file 1 in group
4) apply file 1 settings, play file 1
5) pop settings to return to group settings
6) push settings before applying ones specific to file 2
7) apply file 2 settings
8) pop settings
Here the option was set at 2). 3) saved it because it had been set
after last push, so 5) restored the setting and it was used for file 2
too. However 6) no longer saved it because there had been pushes after
the original setting in 2), thus 8) no longer restored the setting and
the option was no longer forced to any particular value when playing
further files after that.
vo_zr was the last user of the "func_full" option type. I think it's
better if future features are implemented using more straightforward
option functionality. Delete the func_full implementation.
Add mp_property_generic_option(), a property function that can be used
for generic option-based properties that do not require any action
beyond manipulating the value of the option variable. Currently it
directly implements GET and SET, plus STEP_UP for "choice" options
only. Use it to add a property for -pts-association-mode (not
particularly useful in normal use, but serves as a test).
Add a "choice" option type. Options of this type take a string as
input and set an int option variable to the value corresponding to the
string. The string->int mapping is option-specific and is given in the
option definition. Strings not found in the mapping are rejected as
invalid option values.
Change the option -pts-association-mode to use this new option type
and accept values "auto, decoder, sort" instead of "0, 1, 2". The
change in accepted values shouldn't cause problems as this option is
not appropriate to use in normal user config files.
Make the parse_timestring public, with a slightly extended API.
As a consequence, "2 hours" is no longer recognized as a valid timestamp
meaning "2 seconds".

-chapter can optionally take a range with a start and an end. Add a
new option type which supports such values and use that instead of a
custom per-option function.
This commit also fixes a build configuration bug: before the
availability of the -chapter option depended on DVD functionality
being enabled in the binary, even though the option works with other
sources too.
Prerequisite for making stream_open filename const in a proper way.
