Add a VO command (VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT) which requests a screenshot
directly from the VO. If VO support is available, screenshots will be
taken instantly (no more 1 or 2 frames delay). Taking screenshots when
hardware decoding is in use will also work (vdpau). Additionally, the
screenshots will now use the same colorspace as the video display.
Change the central MPContext to be allocated with talloc so that it
can be used as a talloc parent context.
This commit does not yet implement the functionality for any VO (added
in subsequent commits).
The old screenshot video filter is not needed anymore if VO support is
present, and in that case will not be used even if it is present in
the filter chain. If VO support is not available then the filter is
used like before. Note that the filter still has some of the old
problems, such as delaying the screenshot by at least 1 frame.
Compiling with full features requires development files for several
external libraries. Below is a list of some important requirements. For
more information see the output of './configure --help' for a list of options,
or look at the list of enabled and disabled features printed after running
'./configure'. If you think you have support for some feature installed
but configure fails to detect it, the file config.log may contain information
about the reasons for the failure.
Libraries specific to particular video output methods
(you'll want at least one of VDPAU, GL or Xv):
- libvdpau (for VDPAU output, best choice for NVIDIA cards)
- libGL (OpenGL output)
- libXv (XVideo output)
general:
- libasound (ALSA audio output)
- various general X development libraries
- libfreetype
- libfontconfig
- libass
- FFmpeg libraries (libavutil libavcodec libavformat libswscale libpostproc)
Most of the above libraries are available in suitable versions on normal
Linux distributions. However FFmpeg is an exception (distro versions may be
too old to work at all or work well). For that reason you may want to use
the separately available build wrapper that first compiles FFmpeg libraries
and libass, and then compiles the player statically linked against those.
