Do what we do best in multimedia: add conflicting hacks on top of other
hacks, that fix a single sample, and may break other ones.
In this case, it only happens if the file is most likely already broken
(subtitle bounding boxes go outside of the subtitle "canvas"), so it's
OK. The file still looks broken (and, in fact, the file is completely
fucking broken), but you can see the subtitles.
But in summary, this is not actually something I should have bothered
about.
I noticed that MPlayer shows the subtitles "correctly", but this is only
because they have a hack that extends subtitles with small resolution to
a larger hardcoded resolution. This hack was removed from mpv, because
it broke some completely legitimate files. As another really funny fact,
MPlayer's default video output (vdpau) appears to display this file
correctly, but only because it handles narrow aspect ratios (that extend
the height instead of the width) incorrectly. It extends the height, but
leaves the video with 1:1 aspect ratio at the top. It seems to repeat
the last video line. (-vo xv and -vo gl show it correctly, i.e.
stretched like mpv, by the way.) For some reason, the sample file at
hand is extended with black, so the subtitles are rendered into a black
area below the video, which is almost reasonable. So, MPlayer may
display this file "correctly", but in fact it only happens to do so
because of 1 hack that breaks legitimate files, and 1 bug. What the
fuck.
Fixes: #7218 (sort of)
Hr-seek has some sort of tolerance against timestamps, where it allows
for up to 5ms deviation. This means it can work only for videos with up
to 200 FPS framerate. There were complains about how it doesn't work
with videos beyond some high fps. (1000 was mentioned, although that
sounds more like it's about the limit that .mkv has.)
I suspect this is because otherwise, it might be hard to hit a timestamp
with --start, which specifies timestamps as integer, and thus will most
likely never represent a timestamp exactly. Another part of the problem
is that mpv uses 64 bit floats for timestamps, so fractional parts are
never represented exactly. (Both the "tolerance" and using floats for
timestamps were things introduced before my time.)
Anyway, in the backstep case, we can be relatively sure that the
timestamp will be exact (as in, the same unmodified value that was
returned by the filter chain), so we can make an exception for that, in
order to fix backstep.
Untested. (For that you have users.)
May help with #7208.
See previous commit. libavformat exports this information as AVStream.id
field.
The big problem is that the libavformat field is simply 0 if it's
unknown (i.e. the demuxer never sets it). So it needs to remain a
whitelist. Just add more formats which are known to have a meaningful
ID.
I considered exporting IDs for all formats, and then either leaving the
values as they are, or filtering duplicate values (and choosing
arbitrary but unique different IDs). But then again, I think it's sort
of mpv's job to filter FFmpeg's absurd bullshit API, and it should make
an effort to hide it rather than to reflect it.
See: #7211
The demuxer_id (exported in as "src-id" property) is supposed to be the
native stream ID, as it exists in the file, or -1 if that does not exist
(actually any negative value), or if it is unknown.
Until now, an ID was made up if it was missing. That seems like strange
non-sense, and I can't find the reason why it was done. But it was
probably for convenience by the EDL stuff or so.
Stop doing this. Fortunately, the src-id property was documented as
being unavailable if the ID is not known. Even the code for this was
present, it was just inactive until now. Extend input.rst with some
explanations.
Also fixing 3 other places where negative demuxer_id was ignored or
avoided.
The remaining legacy VOCTRLs are for the fullscreen and border
properties. For fullscreen this largely just replacing the private
state field with the vo option but there are small semantic
differences that we need to be careful of.
For the border setting, it's trivial as we don't have external
mechanisms for changing the state, but I also can't test it as
I'm not using a compositor that supports it.
I always intended for this to be accepted and mean "right" but I
made it show an error for any value that's not explicitly
recognised (while considering all unrecognised values to mean "right").
So let's explicitly recognise "yes".
I wanted to get this done quickly as I introduced the new VOCTRL
behaviour for minimize and maximize and it was immediately made
legacy, so best to purge it before anyone gets confused.
I did not sort out fullscreen as that's more involved and not something
I've educated myself about yet. But I did replace the VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN
usage with the new option change mechanism as that seemed simple
enough.
Pretty annoying affair. The vo_gpu code could of course not trigger
rendering from filters yet, so it needed to be extended. Also, this uses
some icky stuff made for vf_sub (and this was the reason I marked vf_sub
as deprecated), so everything is terrible.
The previous hack for fixing #7201 requires this, but it wasn't checked.
It's easy to check, so do it. (Yes, we could just have required OpenGL
3.2 headers and skipped the earlier fix.)
For #7201.
We don't want m_config uninitialization to call random change callbacks.
This happens at the end of mp_destroy(), when almost everything else is
already destroyed, and the change callbacks would probably trigger UB
all over the place.
The change callbacks could be trigger by m_config_restore_backups(),
which is just used as a cheap way to free the remaining state. The worst
is that this depends on which options may still have been part of this
"backup" state, which depends on user input.
Probably never a practical problem, since the backup state is most
likely guaranteed to be empty before uninit is performed, but still.
glx.h recursively includes gl.h, and there is no way to prevent this.
Old Mesa defines some GL symbols, but not all which mpv needs. In
particular, one user who was too lazy to update his ancient Ubuntu and
preferred to bother us with obscure bug reports, had Mesa headers which
did not define GL 3.2, so GLsync was not defined.
All in all I still think the idea of providing the GL API definitions
ourselves was a good idea; just GLX should have been isolated better.
But isolating GLX now is too much effort.
Not sure why I'm bothering with this at all.
Fixes: #7201 (unconfirmed)
This is necessary to avoid breaking input behaviour in the 'idle'
state when not playing a video. Otherwise, the mouse area starts off
covering the whole window and blocks normal input.
Commit 311cc5b6 added the ability use flags while omitting name, but
broke the case where both name and flags are omitted.
Now omitting either name or flags or both works as documented.
It seems logical to account for the window controls if `boxvideo`
is in use (which has the effect of reducing the size of the video
so that the osc is not covering the video).
This didn't match what is in wscript_build.py. Also, it should work on
non-X11 platforms... probably. (The condition is convoluted and almost
nonsensical, but the offscreen context creation needs to be cleaned up
anyway as soon as other backends, e.g. for win32, are added.)
Properties should handle this themselves. This basically sent redundant
notifications. I found only two places where the "proper" notification
was missing.
Now that the option-to-property bridge is gone, this is not needed
anymore. It always took the "silent" path.
Also, at least as of before this commit, this didn't correctly print a
warning when accessing a deprecated option as property. This was because
m_config_get_co_raw() was used, which intentionally does not print any
warnings, so switch to the non-raw one. (Affects only options that have
.deprecation_message set.)
Probably pretty useless in this form (see: the wall of warnings), but
someone wanted this.
I think this should be useful to perform some automated tests, maybe.
Fixes: #7194
This function always expects the GL struct pointer to be a talloc
allocation. So far so bad. But the terrible thing is that _lots_ of code
in mpv didn't quite get this (including the code which introduced the
way it is used this way). For example, in context_glx.c you see this:
struct priv {
GL gl;
...
GL is not a talloc allocation, but since it's at the start of a talloc
allocation, it works anyway. So far so bad. But the really terrible
thing is that mpgl_load_functions2() calls talloc_free_children() on the
GL pointer, which means that all of priv's. This would be unintentional
and could create dangling pointers. And this happens at the about 1
dozen of callers. I'm amazed it didn't broke yet anywhere.
Removing this anti-pattern with making GL "implicitly" a talloc
allocation would be too much effort at this point. So just manually free
the only allocation that the function attached to GL.
I missed these due to only testing with my personal osc config.
The deadzone needs to be correctly handled for the window controls,
or they will fail to appear when the mouse is close to or over them.
In the process of doing that, I realised that the controls should
respect the barmargin, if set. This is because the controls should
remain aligned when layout=topbar and as the control bar is top
aligned, it should be equally affected if the user needs to set
the barmargin.
I also fixed a mistake in trying to the use the mpv-osd-symbols font
for the window controls.
Should restore full functionality.
The initial state setting is a bit shoddy (instead of setting the
properties before map, we use the WM commands to change it after, so you
will see the normal window state for a moment; the WM commands do not
work on unmapped windows, so fixing this would require more code).
- remove VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN and VOCTRL_GET_FULLSCREEN
- have your own m_config_cache for the fullscreen option
(vo->opts_cache cannot be used because you lose per-option change
notifications, and it'd be a mess anyway)
- use VOCTRL_VO_OPTS_CHANGED to update it
(it's used for convenience)
- when updating it, check for the fullscreen option
(wasn't sure how to do it best; currently, it compares the raw
option pointers, but this could be changed)
- do not send VO_EVENT_FULLSCREEN_STATE on FS change
- instead write the option on FS change
(assign in opt. struct + m_config_cache_write_opt)
Instead of making m_config a special-case, it more or less uses the
underlying m_config_cache/m_config_shadow APIs properly. This makes the
player core a (relatively) equivalent user of the core option API. In
particular, this means that other threads can change core options with
m_config_cache_write_opt() calls (before this commit, this merely led to
diverging option values).
An important change is that before this commit, mpctx->opts contained
the "master copy" of all option data. Now it's just another copy of the
option data, and the shadow copy is considered the master. This is why
whenever mpctx->opts is written, the change needs to be copied to the
master (thus why this commits add a bunch of m_config_notify... calls).
If another thread (e.g. a VO) changes an option, async_change_cb is now
invoked, which funnels the change notification through the player's
layers.
The new self_notification parameter on mp_option_change_callback is so
that m_config_notify... doesn't trigger recursion, and it's used in
cases where the change was already "processed". It's still needed to
trigger libmpv property updates. (I considered using an extra
m_config_cache for that, but it'd only cause problems with no
advantages.)
I think the recent changes actually forgot to send libmpv property
updates in some cases. This should fix this anyway. In some cases,
property updates are reworked, and the potential for bugs should be
lower (probably).
The primary point of this change is to allow external updates, for
example by a VO writing the fullscreen option if the window state is
changed by the window manager (rather than mpv changing it). This is not
used yet, but the following commits will.
Goes in line with the recent changes to always checking for option value
changes. The player core will use this to determine whether it should
send additional change events.
Just an implementation detail that can be cleaned up now. Internally,
m_config maintains a tree of m_sub_options structs, except for the root
it was not defined explicitly. GLOBAL_CONFIG was a hack to get access to
it anyway. Define it explicitly instead.
The original MPlayer m_config was essentially only responsible for
handling some command line parsing details, handling profiles, and
file-local options. And then there's the new mpv stuff (that stuff was
regretfully written by me), which is mostly associated with making
things thread-safe (includes things like making it all library-safe,
instead of stuffing all option data into global variables).
This commit tries to separate them some more. For example,
m_config_shadow (the thread-safe thing) now does not need access to
m_config anymore. m_config can hopefully be reduced to handling only the
"old" mplayer-derived mechanisms.
This will allow any other threads to write to the global option data in
a safe way.
The typical example for this is the fullscreen option, which needs to be
written by VO (or even some other thing running completely separate from
the main thread). We have a complicated and annoying contraption which
gets the value updated on the main thread, and this function will help
get rid of it.
As of this commit, this doesn't really work yet, because he main thread
uses its own weird copy of the option data.
This adds m_config_cache_get_next_changed() and the change_flags field
in m_config_cache. Both can be used to determine whether specific
options changed (rather than the entire sub-group).
Not sure if I'm very happy with that. The former rather compact
update_options() is now a bit of a mess, because it needs to be
incremental. m_config_cache_get_next_changed() will not be too nice to
use, and change_flags still relies on global "allocation" of change
flags (see UPDATE_* defines in m_option.h). If C weren't such a
primitive language that smells like grandpa, it would be nice to define
per-option change callbacks or so.
This compares options by value to determine whether they have changed.
This makes it slower in theory, but in practice it probably doesn't
matter (options are rarely changed after initialization). The
alternative would have been per-option change counters (wastes too much
memory; not a practical problem but too ugly), or keep all
m_config_caches in a global list and have bitmaps with per-option change
bits (sounds complicated). I guess the current way is OK.
Technically, this changes semantics slightly by ignoring setting an
option to the same value. Technically this wasn't a no-op, although the
effect was almost almost no-op. Some code would actually become cleaner
by ignoring such redundant change events, and them being no-op is
probably also what the user would normally assume.
Create a separate struct for internal fields of m_config_cache, so API
users can't just mess with stuff they shouldn't access.
Move the ts field out of m_config_data, so we don't need unnecessary
atomics in one case.
This is just preparation, and shouldn't change any behavior.
The exact type name (m_obj_list_t) was removed in 2013. I don't think
this stub comment helps much with understanding this complicated thing
anyway (this code is for the --vf/--af options, and makes up almost half
of m_option.c).
This is used to detect whether any filters were changed. This code was
essentially ported to m_option.c.
One possible difference is how the old code did name comparison. It did
not actually compare the name (!?!?), so this might change behavior,
hopefully to the better.
Today, if window decorations are not present, either because they were
disabled, or because the platform doesn't support them
(eg: gnome-shell on wayland), there are no window controls, meaning it
is not possible to minimize/maximize/close a window without knowing
keyboard shortcuts.
While you can imagine various ways of offering client side decorations,
it is attractive to consider using OSC because that is functionality
that we already have.
The main work here is defining a separate input area from the main
OSC box with its own buttons, etc.
While we could probably handle auto-detection based on whether
decorations are present or not, it's manually controlled for now.
The window control logic is mostly disconnected from the OSC itself,
except in the case of the `topbar` layout, where there has to be
coordination so that the controls don't get drawn on top of each other.
I had to do fine-positioning of the buttons based on the font on
my system, so don't be surprised if it looks wrong elsewhere.
You could also argue that window controls should be unscaled, even
if the main OSC box is scaled, but I've not tried to do this.
We primarily care about pseudo-decorations for wayland, where
the compositor may not support server-side decorations. So let's
implement the minimize and maximize commands and return the
maximized window state.
If we want to implement window pseudo-decorations via OSC, we need a
way to tell the vo to minimize and maximize the window. Today, we have
minimized as a read-only property, and no property for maximized.
Let's made minimized settable and add a maximized property to go with
it. In turn, that requires us to add VOCTRLs for minimizing or
maximizing a window, and an additional WIN_STATE to indicate a
maximized window.
At least with gnome-shell (I know, I know), the compositor does
not provide the old window size when leaving the maximized state.
Instead, we get a toplevel_config event with a 0x0 size and no
additional states.
Today, we already save the window geometry to restore it when leaving
the fullscreen state, so we just need a small change for it to
kick in for leaving the maximized state. If I read this correctly,
we'll still respect the size passed by a compositor that actually
provides the old size.
Rather than hard-coding the edge grab zone width, we can make it
user configurable. It seems worthwhile to have separate configs
for pointer and touch usage as the defaults should be different,
and a user might have both input methods in use.
