The project has 3 build dependencies:
- SDL
- FFmpeg
- libusb
For Windows, the release script downloaded pre-built build dependencies
(either from upstream, or from the scrcpy-deps repository).
Instead, download the source releases and build locally. This offers
more flexibility.
The official adb release is still downloaded and included as is in the
release archive (it is not a build dependency).
Also upgrade FFmpeg to 6.1.1 and libusb to 1.0.27.
PR #4713 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/4713>
Install all the prebuilt dependencies for Windows to a specific folder,
and use meson command line options to specify their location.
This removes crossbuild-specific code from the meson scripts and will
simplify dependency upgrades.
PR #4460 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/4460>
On the scrcpy-deps repo, I built FFmpeg 5.1.2 binaries for Windows with
only the features used by scrcpy.
For comparison, here are the sizes of the dll for FFmpeg 5.1.2:
- before: 89M
- after: 4.7M
It also allows to upgrade the old FFmpeg version (4.3.1) used for win32.

This fixes the following warning:
> WARNING: Running the setup command as `meson [options]` instead of
> `meson setup [options]` is ambiguous and deprecated.
The files in data/ are specific to the client app (not the server).
This also avoids to reference the parent directory (../) from
app/meson.build.

The prebuilt dependencies are specific to the client app (not the
server).
This also avoids to reference the parent directory (../) from
app/meson.build.
This aims to fix two issues with the previous implementation:
1. the whole content of downloaded archives were extracted, while only
few files are necessary;
2. the archives were extracted in the prebuild-deps/ directory as is.
As a consequence of (2), the actual directory name relied on the root
directory of the archive. For adb, this root directory was always
"platform-tools", so when bumping the adb version, the target directory
already existed and the dependency was not upgraded (the old one had to
be removed manually).
Expose common function to download a file and check its checksum, but
let the custom script for each dependency extract only the needed files
and reorganize the content if necessary.
On Windows, the file explorer does not provide any "open a terminal
here" shortcut.
Add a bat file which just runs `cmd` to easily open a terminal directly
in the scrcpy directory (so there is no need to `cd C:\path\…`).
