Instead of having separate backends, make use of GLES a flag. This
reduces the number of backends and the resulting annoyances.
Also, nobody cares about using GLES, so there's no backward
compatibility either.
(I have no idea why there are different modes.)
Instead of risking to drop frames too early, give it some margin. Since
there are situations this could deadlock, wait with a timeout. This can
happen if e.g. the API user is refusing to render anything, or if
uninitialization is happening.
This creates the window before the first file is loaded. This was
requested a bunch of times, but on the other hand a change to make this
behavior the default was reverted some time ago, because other users
hated it.
Reduces (but likely does not remove) the danger of rounding intermediate
values down to 8 bit. This is important for cscale, or any other
processing that might store raw YUV values in framebuffers.
Fixes#1918.
ao_coreaudio uses AudioUnit - the OSX software mixer. In theory, it
supports multichannel audio just fine. But in practice, this might be
disabled by default, and the user is supposed to select a multichannel
base format in the "Audio MIDI Setup" utility.
This option attempts to change this setting automatically. Some possible
disadvantages and caveats are listed in the manpage additions. It is off
by default, since changing this might be rather bad behavior for a
normal application.
Since commit 7381db60, strings like "~desktop/" were expanded as
platform-specific paths by mpv. Apparently this similarity to standard
Unix shell expansion caused confusion, so change it to "~~desktop/". The
shell doesn't expand this, so it should be better.
This now stores caches for multiple ICC profiles, potentially all the
user has ever used. The big use case for this is for users with multiple
monitors. The old logic would mandate recomputing the LUT and discarding
the cache whenever dragging mpv from one screen to another.
This also avoids having to save and check the ICC profile itself, since
the file name already uniquely determines it.
This should take care of the endless complaints about the default
location for screenshots (and will of course create new ones).
If the screenshot-template is set to an absolute path, the directory
won't be used. So this should be reasonably compatible.
So that the user realizes where they come from, or can find them at all.
This was a common complaint, and this is the most lazy solution. Better
suggestions for a default template are welcome.
win32 has a special function for this.
I'm not sure about OSX - it seems ~/Desktop can be hardcoded, and the
OSX GUI actually localizes the _displayed_ path in its UI.
For Unix, there is not much to be done, or is there.
Now the rescan_external_files command will by default reselect the audio
and subtitle streams. This should be more intuitive.
Client API users and Lua scripts might break, but can be fixed in a
backward-compatible way by setting the mode explicitly.
This was in the "Window" section. It has absolutely nothing to do with
windows. Move it to the "Miscellaneous" section instead. The "--mc"
option, which has a similar function, was already there.
The build failed because rst2pdf apparently has problems with
page breaks. In this case, the link to the ALSA upmix guide was
causing a page break in an admonition block. My guess is that
rst2pdf screws up when it can’t fill at least one line of text
following a page break, so I worked around this by making that
paragraph a little longer. Seems to do the trick.
I also shortened the URL using GitHub’s service because it was
causing some rather unsightly formatting in the manpage output.
Maybe we should just build HTML instead of a PDF.
Approximate time of video buffered in the demuxer, in seconds. Same as
`demuxer-cache-duration` but returns the last timestamp of bufferred
data in demuxer.

Remove the old implementation for these properties. It was never very
good, often returned very innaccurate values or just 0, and was static
even if the source was variable bitrate. Replace it with the
implementation of "packet-video-bitrate". Mark the "packet-..."
properties as deprecated. (The effective difference is different
formatting, and returning the raw value in bits instead of kilobits.)
Also extend the documentation a little.
It appears at least some decoders (sipr?) need the
AVCodecContext.bit_rate field set, so this one is still passed through.
Useful for dealing with libavfilter's terrible graph syntax.
Not strictly backwards compatible (for example "[a[b]" fails now - the
"[" within the quote is interpreted now). But hopefully it's obscure
enough not to warrant any kind of compatibility hacks.
It's entirely useless, especially now that vo.c handles screenshots in a
generic way, and requires no special VO support. There are some
potential weird use-cases, but actually I've never seen it being used.
The old behavior does not make too much sense after all. If you don't
want to file to be overwritten, the user can check this manually.
This is a change in behavior - let's hope nobody actually relied on it.
libavcodec makes it impossible to distinguish dropped frames (requested
with AVCodecContext.skip_frame), and cases when the decoder simply does
not return a frame by default (such as with VP9, which has invisible
reference frames).
This confuses users when decoding VP9 video. It's basically a cosmetic
issue, so just paint it over by ignoring them if framedropping is
disabled.
It seems this choice was never documented. "always" is actually older
than "yes", so just declare it a compatibility value for "yes". (Also
move it before "always" in the C code to make this clear.)
